Monday's Greedy Yellow Bird Giveaway (Round 5)
Get 350 in POB delegations!
This week more prizes!!
I plan to carry out this contest every Monday as long as the community is with me.
- Make a comment to the main post.
- Add a number on the comment and make a callout to a friend (someone else besides @mineopoly (That guy's nuts.)).
- Wait for at least two valid comments before making a second comment.
There will be seven winners:
comment #11 wins -> 10 POB delegation
comment #21 wins -> 20 POB delegation
comment #31 wins -> 30 POB delegation
comment #41 wins -> 40 POB delegation
comment #51 wins -> 50 POB delegation
comment #61 wins -> 60 POB delegation
comment #71 wins -> 70 POB delegation
The game ends at comment #71 or the expiration of the post whichever comes first.
delegations are good for one year
What is a valid comment?
- A valid comment is a comment added to the main post. Comments on comments are welcome, but are not counted as valid or given a number.
- A valid comment has some number included in the body of the comment. Even if that number is not the correct number.
- A valid comment contains a callout to a friend who is an actual hive user or proof that you contacted the friend off hive and invited him or her to the contest.
- A valid comment contains at least four words... extra gifts for those who make me laugh.
- A valid comment is not an automated or notorious spam comment.
- A second comment is not valid unless two valid comments from other users come first.
- A comment from one user operating alternating accounts is not valid.
- A valid comment is a comment that has not been edited.
How to check numbers:
- Use the https://www.proofofbrain.io front end and sort the comments by age.
Make sure you count only the valid comments on the main post. Write a number on your comment.
Wait for at least two more valid comments to pass and then you can make another comment on the main post.
Do your best to number your comment. I will not tell you if your number is right or wrong until the contest is over. Some people might miscount. That doesn't make their comment invalid. It's up to you to do your best.
I will check the numbers when the contest gets to #71. Then you will find your prizes. Some will win monster giphys to help them with their math. Others will win POB delegations.
Let's call some friends to participate. Feel free to shout out more friends in the comments. Here are some for starters: @sofs-su @vikbuddy @malopie @funshee @knowledge23.pob @trostparadox.pob @sugandhaseth @chincoculbert @edystringz @vcclothing @finguru @newman42 @aiuna @curatorcat.pal @blezyn @rapha-el7 @tfranzini @moon-city @da-prince @d-pend

If you prefer your username not to be included in this call out please notify me.
Still bored?
--- Are you into blind submission?
Take a minute and write a post. Then send it to @blind.submit right here.
There is a good chance for lesser known writers to get attention and rewards @proofofblind.
They are looking for completely original and plagiarism free @proofofblind. Just don't cheat.
So what are you waiting for?
Make a comment and number it.
Número 11
Que Bonito @d-pend. You do realize I changed the rules a little this time? And obviously you know that there are 7 winners^^
LOL
!PIZZA
Thanks for participating.
The POB community has been awesome in participation and support. There has also been a lot of humor and a lot of !PIZZA in the contest. But according to the rules in Round 5, a valid comment includes a call out to a friend so this comment was not included in the total count. The next contest will not have the shout out as a requirement.
We are not finished.
I counted according to the rules in the post and found that we are about half way at this moment.
Don't give up now.
The big prizes are still out to be grabbed.
Remember:
This is comment # 0abbcc9a8bdabde21b1075679fc583fc7f61407f
You can find the current sequence number by searching the Hive block chain in a site like https://www.hiveblockexplorer.com
You can't count this comment, this is edited :D
Oops, did I just break it :D
Try again. I wonder if I should loosen the rules. I am counting much more invalid comments than valid comments. Next round the shout out requirement definitely goes.
Wait a minute? Are you trying to tell me that there's is yet to be a number 71 comment?😅
@mineopoly what exactly is happening here😅😅 I think I'm no. 105😅😅
The rules this time state that a valid comment contains at least four words, a shout out and a number. Also there is a space of at least two comments before commenting again.^^
These are the rules of the post. Next time I can make some adjustments, but during the game I have to play by the rules @doziekash.
Left to me, the rules are cool the way they are right now. But it seems most people don't pay attention to details and just want to have fun and post as many times as they can.😂
This comment cannot be counted. The rules say we can call any user except @mineopoly to be counted.
Oops🤦🏾♀
I'm still winner tho💃🏼💃🏼

@dreemsteem come join the fun ❤️ I hope you are home by now!
!PIZZA !ALIVE
Awesome @wrestlingdesires,
I would love to see @dreemsteem here and I think she would enjoy interacting with POB. I wonder what ever happened to her pirate monkey?
She's home now :) The fire danger is over 🙌
We will have to ask about the monkey :)
Do you know about her pirate monkey?
I know about the good ship Giggles but I have never met the monkey! Do you have a link???
Ah.. It's in her Steemit stuff. She had some idea to make some educational program. I just wonder what @dreemsteem did with it.
Oh, her first project? I'm a product of the second one 💓 UU still rocks 🙌
!PIZZA !ALIVE
That was Welcome Wagon which helped new people to Steem ... UU was WW on steroids and DreemPort takes it to the next level.
I get a vote every so often from a Welcome Wagon :) I have to agree that Dreemflare and Dreemport are the ultimate, but I will never forget UU ❤️
!PIZZA !ALIVE
now you know what it is. WW came about from a discussion in a Witness Chat. We were talking about getting to newbies to help them learn the system and Dreem's wheels got turning. The rest is history so to speak. The Witness Chats were something I started on The Ramble as the result of some discussions during PYPT.
So everything started on Discord, where we all learned how to make a decent post??? I really should have gotten involved earlier!
hahahaha yes - WW follows the vote for me - or dreemport - I can't remember which one - maybe both! :)
and you are actually a product of the THIRD project hahaha
it was WW, then Spunkee Monkee, then UU - now all the Dreem-based projects :)
hahahaha i have a lot of ideas LOL
but I always take the best of the previous projects and find a way to bring it into the next so that the others never die! :)
Same projects but upgraded with different names.^^
Slightly....they are all different.
WW was definitely very much like UU, UU was bigger and better. That was amazing until that platform shut down.
But Spunkee Monkee was completely different. That focused on building into children this sense of preparing them for life through their bonds of family. That one was very special to me. Inspiring children is where my heart truly soars.
Now DreemPort is a horse of a different color. Totally new...and I'm loving it because it brings fresh eyes to your content.... genuine engagement to your posts ..and does this across platforms.
I'm very proud of how this is going, but it's slow and strong and stable ...but slowwww.hahahaha
I don't mind slow so much if it's building strong. So...that's ok.
But the only thing that connects all of these projects is my heart.
My heart has always been, is now, and will always be to build people up genuinely
So if you're seeing similarities in the projects ...it's because they're always built from that heart. @mineopoly ❤️😊

I still have it :)
and I still hope that I can bring it back... however... the one thing that was very difficult about it - (and the reason why I came out of anonymity!) is that it deals with children online.
Several things happened at the time.
Spunkee Monkee was very much tied up in Steem. and when the Justin Sun Ned shit happened - it wasn't just a matter of being a quick move over to Hive when it came for me. It made me realize that I should never again be dependent THAT MUCH on a platform. Work WITH the platform - absolutely. But be so dependent?? so that I can't continue if something shuts down?? no.
Then - the whole part of doing things with families and working with kids. YouTube was changing their guidelines and a lot of people who were content creators there were going through these hoops for videos created for children - and I remember thinking.. how is this going to affect Spunkee Monkee when we return.. and.. is there a better way... etc
Then - I had a few kids that enjoyed Spunkee Monkee - but their parents wanted them to kinda just log on - and do the project themselves. Those parents later told me that their kids loved it - but lost interest because they needed help, and the parents really didn't have time to like - sit down and do it with them. I get it... but it IS meant to be a FAMILY thing. Not just a "drop your kids off at the babysitter" type of program. those people who did it as a family had the BEST experience. and so I was trying to think of how to make it easier for them to do that -WITHOUT needing to learn how to use Steemit/Hive to write blogs.. etc. (again, the need for my own interface)
and then Steemit ultimately blew up - taking WW and Spunkee Monkee with it - and it was a very difficult time for me. a lot of... soul-searching, sadness, figuring out how to bring it back (with very little money) and it was an extremely frustrating time.
When Hive started - I wanted to just jump right in... but I kept thinking... take a breath, take your time, how can you ensure that this won't be more of the same, that was a lot of time, energy, money lost... how do we NOT do that again and how does it become BETTER.
Right at the time, I found another platform that had that same FUN energy that Steemit had in the very beginning. everything was exciting there and there were so many people flocking to it having a blast - commenting like crazy - it was super addictive.
I brought my knowledge of blogging on the blockchain there and with the approval of their founder - I created my own program (very similar to Welcome Wagon but much bigger) on their platform. I brought pieces of WW and pieces of Spunkee Monkee there and we started to kinda recreate this new project - and it was AMAZING.
Sadly - spammers, scammers and the abandonment by the founder created yet another Sun/Ned situation and once again... it was like - everything all over again. YET ANOTHER time when the project was too closely tied with a platform - and pffft. all up in smoke.
And now... we have dreemport :)
yes - we are on Hive. but we are also autonomous. and it's part of ALL the projects in the past, but once again - evolved and better and growing and I think it's going to be something special! We are growing very very slowly- but that's exactly what I want. slow, stable, trustworthy, solid. no more bullshit from people who are looking for get-rich-quick nonsense where they constantly take advantage of the poorest, weakest, newest.
dreemport is about warding off the leeches and the thieves that destroy communities and platforms, and giving power to the writer (newbie to oldbie), creating GENUINE interaction and support, and having a ranking system that TRULY shows the value of the content. No followers, no cliques, no downvote gangs, no upvote circle jerks.
It's a pretty sweet system, and I'm very proud of it. We have an amazing team (I'm here because two of them were talking here about it. hahaha @wrestlingdesires and @shadowspub) we have 5 on the Core team, 20 additional staff and about 45 that are testing the site daily right now - helping us to continue to tweak it. and hmmm maybe 1-2 people join every week - and now i'm seeing a lot of people start to use the #dreemer tag. which is pretty fun when I meet new writers there. Some dont even know why they use it - they just try it for fun and then I come say hi and hopefully make a new connection.
so... that's the big story. hahaha spunkee monkee is not gone - but it is not ready to be re-launched. my heart's desire is that if I am privileged to launch that again - it will be when I have the money to build it the best way. (which always takes money) but that's the only way that I want to bring it back. Because it is too amazing of an idea to try to pull it off halfway.
how's that for a response ;)
sorry i've not been here to respond like i usually do. i had covid for 2 weeks and it got really bad - and while i was healing - a wildfire closed in around our community and we had to be evacuated. I just finally returned home yesterday :) that was a month i would like to never repeat hahahahaha
Hi @dreemsteem,
My response:
This is the attitude most us have developed at this point with all networks. I even sometimes say they are "alive" but the life is from real awesome human beings. They suffer when the platform gets messed up but they survive.
I love teaching kids and naturally produce material for kids. When the laws changed I was conflicted. Kids have a right to be protected from this commercial consumer culture. Algorithms were sending kids down a path to videos that were not appropriate for any child. So I agree with Youtube's decision to turn off the comments and not allow affiliated advertising or the end screen. I decided to create just for the sake of making my material available to my students and a couple times on this blog. I gave up the idea of making a successful education program online and instead just share a few things I have with my students and friends. I do everything the slow way and the free way so it takes longer but anyone can follow and there is not financial loss, just gain (even though it is small^^)
These two are beautiful people. Twenty staff is not small.
Is this your website?
https://staging.dreemport.com/login
The art on the front page reminds me of the boat from the movie Soul:
Maybe the #dreemer tag gets a lot of personal interaction so people like it. Don't worry about the Spunkee Monkee. I like to spell kimchee with two "EE"s but it doesn't show up as well in searches for kimchi.
I made kimchi puppets and characters and use them in class. All the way from 3rd to 6th grade students love puppets but they are just for fun.
I'm not going to dump money into something that can be taken away from me. I'm just gonna let it grow naturally.
This is one of the top excuses I have head for not getting homework done on time.
It's just so wild that I totally believe it. May this month be awesome for you.
Oh, and can you make a comment on the main post here and write a number on the comment?
!LUV

@dreemsteem, you've been given LUV from @mineopoly.

shes talking about Spunkee Monkee... that was how Hobo ended up with her account. She was one of Dreem's helpers.
Hobo wants to help too? Be sure to give her a treat :) I think the monkee video was of her and Remy as pirates? She showed me that, it was funny :)
Hobo did help. She was a mentor to some youngsters. When she was spilling stories about me.
lol she probably knows everything about you. They talk about walls talking. Cats typing are even better ❤️
How are Hobo and Tramp?
!PIZZA !ALIVE
they are good... Hobo is the brat she's always been and Tramp has her times but is generally sweet ... she has graduated to sleeping beside me some days... she's getting so brave :)
Wow ❤️ I'm glad she's finally trusting herself to be more affectionate :)

Where is your monkee @dreemsteem?
And if you have a second look at the main post and you are welcome to play this game.
you saw the response i gave about the monkee right? (monkee - not monkey LOL)
and you actually had some monkee fun in UU.. remember the treasure hunt and the map and all that? that actually came from Spunkee Monkee.
you can go look at the account on here - @spunkeemonkee ... it might be confusing if you start on the most recent post (which was 2 years ago) try to scroll back a bit and see hehehe
I'll have a look :) Those treasure hunts were fun!
This was actually valid comment #8.
Thanks for entering a valid comment @wrestlingdesires,
It was not easy for many to do so this round because of the requirement to include a shout out to a friend. Your shoutout seemed to bring in some interesting dialog. !PIZZA
I always love a post that brings friends in for some fun ❤️
Thanks for the !PIZZA :)
It's finally here :D
@sreypov, You keep showing us insects all the time. Come let's catch #6 birds here :D
Is @sreypov some kind of entomologist?

Hi @sugandhaseth, thank you for mention me here but I don’t understand, it’s about birds or comment??
Welcome to the POB SQUID comment game. We will have a new edition soon @sreypov^^
Beautiful gift is knocking at at your door @bimbola753, join me right here. Comment #5
Beautiful @popmanj,
I haven't seen @bimbola753 in a while. I would never have the guts to put the word bimbo in my username, but then some people have a lot of guts and we never forget their username like @diebitch.
Yea, a close look at the profile shows the user hasn't been around for sometimes now. I am going to invite another person . Good to go!
You are awesome^^
Bimbola is actually a name from Yoruba tribe in Nigeria, is derived from Abimbola , and it means 'born with wealth.'
Thanks for clearing that up @funshee. I really needed to know because in English it has a totally different meaning. It sounds like Bimbo - "an attractive but unintelligent or frivolous young woman".
I see now that Abimbola is a wonderful and blessed word.
Yes, i understand.
Abimbola is a wonderful name.
It sounds cool too.
This is comment #4 @popmanj,
You were so close. I wish @bimbola753 could come and play. I think she is a teacher. Maybe she has been busy these days.

Welcome @chincoculbert.
Where is @sofs-su?
I haven't seen her yet.
This is comment #2
The second valid comment entered in the contest.
One.
It looks like I get to open the innings. :)
I will accept "One" as a number^^
Welcome @esmeesmith.
Just don't forget to call a friend :)
Thanks for participating.
The POB community has been awesome in participation and support. There has also been a lot of humor and a lot of !PIZZA in the contest. But according to the rules in Round 5, a valid comment includes a call out to a friend so this comment was not included in the total count. The next contest will not have the shout out as a requirement.
I’m here, I can’t figure out if I am comment #9 ? Or something else ? @deanlogic
Finally, Good to see you friend. Don't worry much about the Number Count, The actual Count will be declared in end by @mineopoly and its actually more fun to comment with the benefit of doubt. Keep commenting in between. !PIZZA
Welcome to the party @offgridlife,
You are always something else to me !LUV,
I will worry about the numbers a little later. Right now you just add a number and four words and your comment is qualified.

@offgridlife, you've been given LUV from @mineopoly.

Thanks for your participation @offgridlife,
I think one of you guys is a winner. It looks like you guys came really close to winning if only your comment could have been counted. Edited comments are not included in the final count. Daisy was really close to winning the first delegation.
Thanks…. I’m trying everything to get my kids back to blogging on ProofofBrain, Blurt etc….. they just aren’t interested in making money. They can’t get any of their friends interested either. They are all happy on Instagram. Oh well.
Hahaha!!
You did the right thing. I set my son up with an account too and told him, "One day this will be worth a new car." He said, "I don't need a car."
They look at me and say:
"Dad, brain again?"
"Dad's on that B... lurt thing."
This is not the generation of making lemonade stands and cutting the grass to earn a few bucks. This is the generation of: "I don't need anything. My dad will take care of it."
My kids are 14 and 10 but they are not interested at all in social media or in making money. They like build stuff on Minecraft and make designs on paper and sing and make comedy but only for themselves. My youngest son makes a movie a day but he said to me, "These videos belong to me. I will choose when and where I want to share them." They are sitting on a gold mine. I see it like Joseph discovering that there are seven years of plenty and they will be followed by seven years of famine. It doesn't take a genius to follow the pattern. Money is not going to be what it used to be.
Yeah… they don’t need money until they need money to go for pizza with their friends. At least I got them to pick some apples and sell a few bushels this summer. They will climb a 12 foot ladder and risk their lives to sell a $20 bushel of apples but won’t post a photo with a short story to ProofofBrain… when I showed that my Blurt was worth $ 50,000 yesterday they couldn’t care less.
comment #21
Sorry i havent been quite active here today. wasn't having a great day but I am putting myself together. How are you guys doing?
I hope your day will brighten up playing along with everyone here. I have a strong suspicion everyone is having some fun here
I hope Greedy Bird gives a permanent cure for Monday sickness.
You were very active @nonsowrites.pob and curating and judging contests would give anyone a headache. That's why I am having this Monday contest so that I don't have to judge. I just count the comments and hand out prizes.
!PIZZA
So close @nonsowrites.pob, but in round five any valid comment included a shout out. This comment could not be counted in the final count. !LUV

I would love to see @slobberchops come and visit. Just one comment would be fine. We won't bite.

He is the best urban explorer that I know.
Definitely! We need to make this a big adventure then he will show up.

Hi there. I think I am #10 @daisyphotography are you there ????
Bring the whole family. I love you guys. Just make sure that Rod is not driving or they may be disqualified... scouts honor
This is valid comment #9. Very close
I can't believe we haven't gotten to 71 yet😅😅
Well This Is The Reply You Have Been Waiting For. Don't bother to count any comment after this because this is the one you have been waiting for.😅
No. 71 finally here @wongi please come help me count🙂
I love your initiative and this comment is a valid comment @doziekash. The problem is that I made the rules in the post that valid comments contain at least four words, a call out and a number. And they have no edits. I didn't find as many comments like that as I expected. Most of the comments were missing something.
A valid comment made by our dear @doziekash. Weldone.
Let's keep counting, what number are we at again?
Valid comment #33
The more you comment in these games @doziekash the more chances you have at winning.
Wow that was pretty close😅
See you in round 6 next Monday^^
It's a date!! 🙂
!BEER
@dprudent why haven't you showed up here yet?
I think i love the sound of #71 😏
I think you are one of the winning comments @funshee.
I think I like how that sound!

Yea, thanks
Yellow bird giddy greedy, hahaha

Yes Giddy, Greedy, Grumpy, Sleepy, Dopey, Bashful, Sneezy, Happy and Doc.
What's up @funshee ?
I'm glad to see you are excited to comment in the contest @alovely088 and call cool friends to join. Just remember to leave a number in your comment.
Alright
So, I counted a lot of comments. I may have missed some along the line but I think I'm comment #48. @monica-ene come and join and maybe you get to be 51!
Wow... I haven't counted for a while, but this sounds very close @blezyn and I appreciate you are following the rules to valid comments. I will let the game go to 71 or until Sunday. Have fund and @monica-ene... good luck. Let me know if you need any help^^
Valid comment #40
Hello 👋. #12 @camplife I have no idea how the numbering system works here. Is it all the comments ?
Yes. We try to number the comments in the order that they are entered. Be careful though some people will enter some unusual numbers.
You were so close to getting the #11 delegation @borgheseglass,
It would have been a perfect comment except that edited comments are not counted.
I'm here with another unrelated photo and I like your style @sugandhaseth. I wonder who will win #71? Will they use their entire brain or will it be dumb luck?
If you can't beat them then join them. Originally the rule was to try to count the number of comments in order but it looks like dyscalculia is contagious in this game.
No comments are disqualified for wrong numbering just for non-numbering.
This is the only logical choice
S mart
I'd love to have Ash Williams around especially during October with all these deadites floating around.
“GROOVY”
If you edit the comment we can't count it.
I have this pesky compulsion to correct spelling mistakes. A hard habit to break but I'll try to remember for next time.
Next time is Monday.
We might be at #31 flavors of ice cream. What's you favorite flavor @mineopoly?
It's a toss up between "pralines and cream" and "Boston Cherry". I'm a Yankee by birth but a Southerner in heart.
Almost perfect comment @buffalobison,
It would be counted as long as any other username was there besides @mineopoly,
You could even have called @null and it would be accepted.
I'll try to remember null, void, zero. I hear they like to hang out together on here.
@null is where the promoted posts funds go. It's basically burning crypto.
I always wondered about that. So when would you use that?
I suppose if you wanted to make an impartial post without any chance of monetary gain?
Look at the proofofbrain.io
At the bottom it says "promote post"
This is really sending funds to @null (This is one way to "burn" funds)
Your post is then listed in the trending section for a while. The advantage is visibility. Every once and a while someone looks through the trending section and sees your post. If you offer something they want on your post then you are in business. You are free to use "post promote". I try not to overuse it... Maybe start with one post promoted to one POB and see if there is a difference. It's one use case for POB.
Thanks for pointing this out !LUV

Just invite the same friend @offgridlife Brian!!! Then invite @vikbuddy.
You only need one friend. Now this comment can't be counted. You are not a lonely Buffalo. You are a hip cow.
In your next comment you can invite me 🤝
I'll remember that 🙂
It's gotta be #18... did I count wrong? Got some doubles down below!
I think you are number #16
I will make sense of all this someday
I'm not sure right now, but that looks pretty close. Remember a couple rules have been added to make the counting even more screwed up.
The contest was a little messed up this time because in round 5, only comments with a shout out were counted in the final count. I will make it more interesting in the next round.
This looks like fun. #11 @borgheseglass
Have fun @daisyphotography,
That's what this is for !LUV
<><
@daisyphotography, you've been given LUV from @mineopoly.
Check the LUV in your H-E wallet. (3/5)
You were almost spot on @daisyphotography,
If only @offgridlife had not made that edit then I could count your comment as #11 but his comment could not be added into the final count so this is comment #10. You were so close.
Man it's so damn difficult to figure out the number of my comment. Well if wishes were horses then i'd be #71😂
@merit.ahama60 can you come help me count lol
So many comments are saying 71... Are we close?
You are right about one thing @doziekash,
You are a winner!!!
This is valid comment #21
20 POB DELEGATION WINNER
Oh my....lol lol 😂
Thanks A lot. This was really Fun.
I really appreciate you @mineopoly
Thanks @doziekash,
I can see you are also a very special person.
Oh my. That's so nice of you to Say. Thanks A lot. Such Kind words get me moody lol🥺
Hey @nasri11 I found my way here through your mention, though I think I'm late to the party😒 1
You are just in time for the big prizes and your comment counts as a valid comment. You are doing great @eil7304
Valid comment #38
How many comments remains for us to reach #71 😏🤔🤔
@wongi
I don't even want to know @funshee, but there are a few faithful comments here that will probably be winners.
Faithful right?
Not much longer before this contest is over.

Not even close. You and Vik seem to be the most active
You were #41 as it turns out but because you are already a winner this is not counted. Instead I will give you another special prize.
Well well..thanks you for all the extra prizes

@hookup.pop did you get some free time at your side? get in here and shake this table
I do miss this fine gentleman @hookup.pop,
What have you been up to these days?
Surprise surprise @funshee,
You are #11
10 POB DELEGATION
You are a winner!!!!
The sad news is there are supposed to be seven winners so once a winner your other winning comments are not counted. However I will give you another prize in addition to this prize for your awesome participation.
Smile! And thank you for the consideration of another extra prize. @vikbuddy has been actively amazing. We can do some shoutout, am sure some people can still turn up here.
He guys it is quarter to #8 over here.
Hello @chincoculbert join us and come along with some morning coffee.
Lol, I guess I slept too much
Welcome onboard, let see what you gat 😊
This is considered a valid comment but cannot be counted because it is the place of #21 and you just won the first delegation of #11.
People always thought my age is 21, did my face looks so babyish🤔?
Well @abbey877 might be able to tell.
Perfect comment and very close @funshee,
This is valid comment #23 and I saw your picture. You do look young.
In the case of the comment blow mine, let me pinch my tent at #43
@popmanj I have you're not sleeping yet.
Maybe I added too many loopholes to jump through this time, but it is more fun. Rest well. It looks like the Americans took a break too. We are getting closer... but at this rate I think the game will finish on Saturday.
This comment would have been counted if there were at least two valid comments between your last entry and now. The problem was that people made comments but they weren't valid so this one could not be counted.
Common guys don't relent now , let push this game to the permanent site.@rob23 why don't you Join us here and win some POB.
#38
I think pOB would great for Rob.
Valid comment #35
@merit.ahama I hope you're doing great today?
Winning comment #61 did not sound bad at all.
At this rate we may reach 71 before Sunday.^^
Valid comment #42
Like I said before, this is a good number
Nice one am finally here now, hope am lucky this time around anyway,let me invite @lordemmy to this
Wow, are we having royalty?
First the @houseofdavid and then @lordemmy...
Lolz,that sounds like having the heir to the throne with you here
Again let me know if you intended "one" in this comment to be your count?
This is valid comment #19
Here "one" is considered a number
Back here once again am picking 35
There is no random wheel. The comments are numbered in order of appearance.
Oops... valid comments in round five include a shout out to a friend.
Finally am taking number 31 now
Try and be adding at least four words on your comment in other to make it count.
The funny thing is that the comments that are edited are not counted.

Hello your lordship,
I just am wondering if "one" used in your comment is intended to be used as number to count your comment @lordemmy?
No,since am unable to get the numbers entry, cause it seems some user's don't fellow it anymore and it is a little bit confusing,but let me take it as a number too
So am saying 1 now in figure
vey good choice
You were so close @lordemmy,
Each valid comment contains a callout, but the one callout that is not counted is @mineopoly.
Seems I see a user who typed fourty
So let me fight for 41
Some people are very gracious and that allows the game to proceed.
Remember @lordemmy that a valid comment contains a shout out to a friend.
Comment 24
I think I need a three months maths class for counting numbers in this greedy yellow bird contest 🤣
I'm pretty sure some of these numbers are imaginary.
Thanks for participating.
The POB community has been awesome in participation and support. There has also been a lot of humor and a lot of !PIZZA in the contest. But according to the rules in Round 5, a valid comment includes a call out to a friend so this comment was not included in the total count. The next contest will not have the shout out as a requirement.

Hi Nasri,
Welcome^^
I'm glad you are here !LUV
I guess your comment qulifies because there is a number included... But it is best to try and at least guess what number your comment is from the first comment.
Winners are comment 11, 21, 31 etc

@dprudent it time to get here. Come and get your share of fun.
Comment #61
Great @popmanj,
If this is comment #61 then we are almost finish and I can start counting.
Hi @dprudent,
I hope you enjoy the show.
Puntastic
I think there is a mistake somewhere, this may not be #61 as did not number their comments
You did really well with this one @popmanji,
You entered a valid comment.
but the actual count is the reverse of 61.
We are actually on valid comment
#16.
It is good to be, definitely I know am not late at all keep the good work going
Welcome back @pthker2010,
You can make a comment again. Just remember to include a number.
Thanks to mineopoly for bring me back
So am going with number 30
Welcome back @pthker2021,
Awesome... I think the comments are close to something like that number.
This could have been counted as the 21st comment if there was a shoutout included in the comment.
Don't even know what number the game is right now.
But am picking 40
Thanks for keeping active in the game^^
Remember that a valid comment contains a shout out to a friend @pthker2010.
Are we still here,if yes shout out to @funshee
Am picking number 71
You are a little early @pthker2010,
I will call you on Monday when the next show starts.
Ok mate
Good morning...
Comment #26
I will count this as four words reluctantly.
🙄🙄
Opps... we forgot to add a shout out to a friend here. This could have been comment 21.
Many are commenting without numbering..., 🤦
Comment #36
Well, it is expected. However comments on other comments don't count
Just follow the instructions and everything is fine. A comment without a number is not counted.
Hi @rapha-el7,
You are good at this game. Just remember some of the rules are changed. A valid comment contains a shout out to a friend.
I'm back for this.... Where are we? Comment #42
Good afternoon fam, let's end this quick.. Everyone come out, I'm on standby 😉😉
Comment #46
It took a while for you to get the hang of the shout outs^^
I think I was missing something @vikbuddy, you didn't tell me the latest, this game should be rate 18 🤣🤣🤣
In the next round I will get rid of the shout out requirement. Instead it will be optional and replaced with a prize for the most invites.
Anyway this round is live until Sunday. Then I will count up the winners.
That's cool...
Valid comment #34
So stressed at work, where is @da-prince... 40
This is a valid comment @rapha-el7 and will be counted.
I read something from @da-prince.... he is around here some wher.?
Valid comment #37
If only @mineopoly can make this be the 71st comment of the Game... 🤣 🤣
The problem is I have to follow the rules I made and one of the rules was to make a shout out to a friend other than @mineopoly. For the purposes of this game... maybe we should just all call @vikbuddy and jam his notification button.
Ha ha, you had actually did that in the past. Remember the Beer Bot choas, I got more than 500 comments all day long, lol🍻😅😜
This time we will keep it to around 300 comments;)
99% of the comments here are manual and we are well over 300 comments.
Oh no, the comment cannot be counted if the only call out is for @mineopoly. That was in the rules. Oh... so close @rapha-el7
Thank God is Friday, @wongi come over here let's play, it's a game of 2...
And I missed this again ... Or did I?
Valid comment #44
Hey @vikbuddy, you seem to be really active here today, guess you want to take away all the delegations :P
Let's fight for #20
Remember when I say there are seven winners I mean there are seven unique winners and that's how we did it each time. I don't think it is fair if one person wins all the delegations. What do you think about that?
Ya that’s absolutely fair given its a fun show 🤩
Thanks @sugandhaseth
I'm having a blast looking at the creativity here and sometimes lack of it.
!LUV
This is actually valid comment #13
Joe's father has five sons. The names of 4 of them are Zaze, Zeze, Zize, and Zoze. What is the name of the 5th?
Joe... but they call him Zuze for fun.
If only one of those sons were a hive username with a shout out we could count this comment.
Hey @da-prince , it's been almost 1000 years I haven't seen you, where have you been?
It reminds me of the poem, daddy finger daddy finger where are you :D :D #beingamom
Hey @da-prince was always a big winner. I wonder what he is doing with the delegation I gave him.
Daddy finger

Where are you?
Hi @sugandhaseth,

Happy Birthday

Valid comment #29
Wifey said to go with position number 69 @sugandhaseth
This is the position to end all arguments.
This is a wonderful comment and the valid comment #26
Did we get there? Have we hit #71? If not, add this one to the mix.
Comment #10-2/3
Oh, wait! I forgot to call out a friend, and I can't do that via an edit. Doh!
That is brillant @trostparadox,
This was the tricky part in this game, the call out. I didn't want to do it because it gets loud and can seem to be a bother.
I will count within ten hours and tally up the winners. I also want to take a look at who has delegations out and how they are doing.
Thanks for following. I plan to keep this up every other Monday. The people who participate have caught on and really enjoy it, but I need the little rest bit to assure my jolly attitude:)

.@blockheadgames, do you think 1 or more of the Apes at the apemining.club will want to play this game by @mineopoly? It's pretty easy to participate, but kinda hard to follow (and even harder to predict the outcome).
This was a perfect comment @trostparadox,
You threw me off with your last comment.
I was thinking we were near the end.
This game is not even half way through.
We should invite all of the apes for a monkey game.
Maybe @chronocrypto would be interested and drop us a line.
Hey sorry, didn't see this as I didn't have notifications.
Have hit drop it in #post-promotions on our discord.
Welcome @blockheadgames,
I hope you have notifications up next week... because I'm calling you then

I have them on now, I was mostly using @apeminingclub but now have a new project launching soon.
Sounds fun. I will look at it.
Valid comment #30
Will this contest end before @christmas comes out of retirement to join us, or will that just extend everything another 12 days?
Hello @trostpardox,
!LUV You are the fist person to make me laugh today. I have to share the !WINE and good cheer.
I will add up the comments again on Sunday.
It was a mistake to define a valid comment as a "comment with a shout out to a friend." There is not much I can do about that now... I think an edit in the rules at this point would just confuse things more. I will not make a requirement like this in any game. It really has been self defeating. I learned my lesson here well.

I would not call it a mistake -- an 'experiment' maybe? What if, in the future, a shout-out counts as two valid comments (if all the other criteria are met), and no shout-out only counts as one?
I like the fact that the rules change a bit with each iteration -- keeps people on their toes.
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad that I found a place to experiment.
That is a very good suggestion. Not only does it confuse the count but it also gives the person who made the comment more real estate to monopolize on.
I'm also considering offering special prizes for the one who invited the most new players and the one who made the most valid comments on the main post. A bonus prize in addition to a number prize can be a good catch^^
I will keep the contest going every other Monday as long as I am able. Mostly for the learning and interaction.
Thanks always !PIZZA
Valid comment #41
Congratulations. This is a valid comment. The previous two comments before your comment were not valid. You are a winner.
Thanks! An early @christmas present!
It's 36! Oh hope I'm right
@nasri11 what are you doing, come join the contest already
You comment is actually no #37
I haven't even started counting. I'm kind of confused too. Like a number is required to be counted as a comment but the number "one" is used so much in casual conversation. I'm not sure about how to deal with that.
🙄
Hi @whiteangey,
Thanks for stopping by and calling a friend.
I never met @nasri11 but hope they enjoy the contest.

Smooth. Everyone is trying to figure out what number we are on. There is only one way to find out. I've got to go through the comments and eliminate comments that are disqualified and count comments that are valid. This looks like a valid comment, but some how your counting must be a little off.
