Are you one of those peoples who comes up with a bright idea, and then finds out it already exist? That's what happens to me all the time. It just happened to me 5 minutes ago while I was driving my car home. I found out my exact idea was already posted on steemit 11 months ago. Quit or do it my way? Lets do it our way! Consider this an experiment:
Steem Lottery
This very post functions as a lottery. By up-voting and commenting you contribute and create more value to the post. Why would you do that? In 7 days 50% of the payout will be going to one of the up voters. How? I let the community decide: post your smart and fair idea for picking one of the upvoters. The comment with most up votes receives 25% of the pot.
By sharing this post you will create much more value so please don't forget
*If this will be a success I will make it a weekly Lottery. I will evaluate and see how more up voters can win prices next time. How can you be sure I will actually share the profits? I'm planning on making it a weekly post. Without keeping my word this will never succeed.
Update and Payout:
So this experiment is one week old and ready to be evaluated:
Total Upvotes: 55
Total payout: $1.45
50% to winner $0.73
25% to most upvoted idea $0.36
25% to author: $0.36
To start with the 25% bounty for coming up with the best idea: It will go to @chaostheory. You came up with the steemd.com option wich was unknown to me and works out fine. You got the most votes and thus wins this contest according to its rules. I agree that this should not be a spamming or in anyways negative post. For the #2 Lottery I will set a #1 price of 50% and a #2 price of 25%
The winner of the 50% pot price of this #1 Steemit Lottery is: @Jnelson963 Hi was picked out of the list by using Google's random number picker. See Video for proof. Thanks all for participating.
@jnelson964 Congratulations Details updated below.
