OBJECTIVE OF THIS FUNDRAISER GAME:

We will determine the dollar amount at the 7 day mark. You have up to 5 days to guess, but the earlier you guess and stick with the guess the more you win.

FAQ / AKA tips and clarification

  • There is only one winner. It will actually be very easy to determine:
    First correct active guess from someone who hasn't been disqualified.
  • Yes there is a possible 80% payout but it's more likely to end up being a guess that's in the 35-55% range leaving more for @photogames prizes.
  • The percentage is of the total SBD that is received from this post.
  • We will check the blockchain for any editing of comments.
  • We want people to stay involved so for this game we WILL ALLOW second guesses. Not all games will be this way.
  • Please put subsequent guesses under your original comment as a reply.
  • We reserve the right to clarify the rules, so check for edits to the post.
    (but the percentages listed above are final).
  • The days are exact cut-offs for example 2 days = 48hrs on the dot from the posting time.
  • The only way to contribute to this FUNDRAISER is through votes… all upvotes are welcome! If you spend money on votes, that is up to you, and yes you are helping us to gain more funds for contests that way. Of course we will take all your 1 cent votes for the fundraiser as well they will add up.
  • Founders of Photogames are not eligible to win and may not invest into this game after 2 days.
  • If you would like to delegate SP to benefit the #photogames, let’s chat!

$150👍

Highest guess so far... so of course I'll upvote this. Haha

Thanks hopefully achieved @jarvie

Sounds good to me. ;)

I'm going with 38.2

i am sorry i did not reed yours :-o and not allowed to edit. have to leave it this way sorry ...

That's okay, you might be closer. But you can always comment again to change your guess - you just won't win as much if you do win. Thanks for playing! :)

I also find it less fair, I mean how good can we gamble? when you do it the last moment you may be sure you are a winner. No, I stay here, but for next time I will pay more attention.

The cutoff for voting is after 5 days, so there are a couple of days of uncertainly between the last chance to vote and the final tally!

true but still.. I stay put

and for staying put you may win more.

$5.22 but i sure hope it’s higher! I’ve been sending messages inviting other photographers on here to the photo games. We just gotta keep spreading the word!! Fun games for camera nerds! ;)

Well thank you for spreading the word, @alevaskye, that's awesome! :D

YAY and @photogames contests are the most funnerest!!

p.s. I'm glad you didn't win with that vote. But you can always update your vote of course.
I look forward to seeing what you choose next. Remember you'll be in a new percentage with your next vote but better than nothing right? haha

Whooo! I lost! :)

Wait, we get another vote??

Yeah rules state you can vote more than once. But when you vote your old vote is no longer active and the amount you get back goes down 5% each time you vote. So at some point you you wouldn't make any money.

Ooh! Ok! Uhhhh..... $30.78

OK your vote of $5.22 is no longer active... noted. :)

See easy as that

$596.27

WOAH!!

Do you have any WHALE BAIT to put out to see if that attracts them!? haha

well, that WAS the number that you told us to guess... Thought it was a bit of an obvious win ;)

OHHHH hahahaha that's funny. I see what you're talking about now

couldn't resist being a smart-ass ;) Fingers crossed miracles do happen!!

Hahaha! Well we can't say you guessed wrong...

So much confidence for game one... i like it.
I would say i hope you win... but there are even higher bids so i hope they win. Hahaha

You never know! ;)

For your sake, I hope the higher people win too!

Thumbs up for symmetry!

Thumbs up... but no vote up??
@yumyumseth ... he ripped you off.

Haha, maybe it's better to no-vote than to low vote? I'm on a mission to regrow my voting power...just another couple of days and I can unleash my massive $0.04 vote!

THIS GAME IS RIGGED!!

Friendly reminder from @photogames staff

I wrote a post to remind people about:

  • No new guesses after 9:41am (MT) Tomorrow (about 10hrs)
  • What happens if you change your guess (Percentage goes down etc)
  • And some other tips
  • Remember there will be 2 more days of voting possible but no more guesses

It's listed right now as 12.87SBD jackpot before curation. So not bad for our first game.

$111 - okay, not super likely, but eleventy-one is such a cool number!
Thanks for the games.
 

Eleventy-one is an excellent age to go on adventures! :)

Cuz thats a lucky number?

No. It's the unlucky number. I want to lose.

New game... it is anyone's guess what happens. I am not putting my hopes up that it gets this high... but we shall see. Maybe it will destroy expectations. Who knows right?

It's worth a try, and the worst that can happen is that we get more fun than funding out of it!

Ok, I'm pretty sure my initial guess cannot be reached...I want to update my guess with $24.85
