It's been about a week since I started up a reblog lottery. There were a few goals I had for this, and I thought it best to document the progress so far, as a way to measure its overall success, since I'm running it through the end of December.
The Prize
The prize is either a $1 Goldback or 6 HBD. The winner gets to choose. This way, the prize appeals to a broader range of people who may not want a Goldback, but can certainly use the HBD to save, convert to Hive, etc.

The Rules
I kept the rules simple.
You have to follow me for any reblogs to count. In theory, this should encourage continued readership.
You get one entry per reblog, so long as it has "Reblog lottery" in the title and isn’t 7 days or older. In theory, this helps get my content out to others while it's still new. This makes sure those who comment also get their share of the rewards and we all benefit.
And lastly, no bots.
How It Started
I had 19 followers before starting this adventure. Not bad considering I just started posting about three weeks ago. Now I'm at 45, which is more than double from where I started!
I know it may not seem like much, but I'd say that's awesome considering I started this reblog lottery about 9 days ago. The rate at which I've been gaining new followers has tapered off quite a bit, but I'm hopeful I'll be able to gain 3 or 4 new followers each week. "Slow and steady wins the race," right?
Thanks for checking in with me on this fun little experiment. I'll probably do another check-in here in a couple of weeks, to allow more time to collect more data. Don't forget to follow me and reblog this. 😉
