Paying it Forward (#PIF) - Contest ed.8 - Let's go find the BIG 5!!!

the_big_5.jpg

🦏

I missed a month of the contest... maybe two🙄🤫

shhhhhhhhh..... don't tell!!!! 😂

So, this month, here is how it will work...and I will list the prizes below the explanation...

I will try to KISS it ... better❣️

Keep it simple stupid!!!
I didn't say I'd keep it short! 🤣

We are now in Spring on my side of the world, and so, to celebrate that, let's go find some baby animals shall we??? And since I am from Africa originally...

... let's go in search of the BIG 5!!!

So maybe some of...
these 🐃 and 🐆 and 🦏 and 🐘 and 🦁 hehehe

Water Buffalo, Leopard, Rhino, Elephant, and Lion

Now where might I find these wonderful animals, you may ask?

GOOD QUESTION!!!

Firstly, each day for the next 5 days (Monday through Friday), I and others will be hiding gifs and emojis of the BIG 5 in the comments on posts that have been shared recently in Dreemport by Dreemers.

We will also, each day, be hiding the odd🐯and one secret word in Dreemport posts 😂 (it could be on a Dreemport post or a reblog by Dreemport).

The emojis, gifs, and secret words mentioned above will be hidden somewhere in the comments.

The secret word will be italicised with a number after it in brackets. Like this

word (1)

Both the word and the number are important!!!

There will be 5 words, one each day of the week. Collect them all and you will have a secret phrase that will put you into the final draw of the week. The number tells you the word's position in the phrase. And the words will not necessarily be dropped in order! 😂

A shortlist of posts, and where these animals and words may be found hanging out, chilling, catching a snooze, will be shared each day in a new post, together with exactly which Big 5 animal you are looking for that day. The first set is included at the bottom of this post 🙂

How do I take part?

Each day, take the list of posts and go and find as many of the specified hidden animals as you can in the comments, and try to find the secret word too! Each day we will be hiding a different animal from the big 5 for you to find.

Then report back to this post before midnight UTC each day, simply with your total number... like this.

Today Monday 2nd May I found 3 water buffalo and one tiger. (count any emojis and gifs).

DON'T say where you found them.

I will know haha... because of this!!!

When you find a hidden animal, read the post that you find it on and leave a meaningful comment for the author straight away on the same day that you found it (please reply to the author's post and NOT to the comment containing the emoji/gif) and if you feel like supporting the author with an upvote too, please do so❣️

I will be checking the posts at the end of each day.

The person who finds the most BIG 5 animals each day will each win a token package. If two or more people tie for 1st spot on any one day then those persons will go into a draw and the winner will be decided by randomiser.org

Don't worry if you are not a daily winner though, because, for each BIG 5 animal that you find, you will get an entry into one of the extra draws at the end of the week. So find 1 animal emoji/gif and you get 1 entry, find 2 and you get 2 entries ...and so on... and if you find a tiger that will count for 2 entries each 🙂. Simples.

As for the secret words, remember to keep them a secret! Make sure you comment on the post that you find them in and upvote the post if you wish (the post not the comment lol - support the main post author). Then on Friday, drop me a message in Discord... - my discord name is SA_Sam1971#1299 - with the secret phrase before midnight UTC, and you will be included in one of the two extra Friday draws.

We will hide 5 of the same BIG 5 animals, 1 tiger, and a word each day.

So this is what you are looking for on Monday this week:

Monday: 5 x Water Buffalo 🐃 1 x Tiger 🐯and 1 x secret word

Now the animals may sometimes appear as a gif instead of an emoji... just for fun 😂😂😂

What do I hope to achieve by this?

Engagement in my favourite community... Dreemport, and additional support for those willing to try out Dreemport.

By reading the targeted Dreemport posts, contestants can use the opportunity to find out more about the Dreemport community and how to use Dreemport to get more eyes on their content on their home blogging platforms, increase their engagement in the comments, and feel part of a supportive community. In addition, because we will be hiding the emojis and gifs in recent posts shared in Dreemport, if you would like your post to be in with a chance of being the targeted hiding spot of one of the Big 5 each day, and therefore get even more eyes on your content lol, then simply share a post in Dreemport this week 😎

To round off the week I will put all qualifying entries into a final draw for some delegations, some HBD, some HBI, and some bot tokens (PIZZA, LUV, LOL)

Prizes will include:

Daily Draws x 5:

1 prize each day consists of:

1 x 20 PIZZA
1 x 16 LOLZ
1 x 10 LUV
1 x 2HBI

Secret Phrase Draw on Friday:

150 Dreem tokens (sponsored by @dreemsteem ) and 5 HBD (sponsored by @penderis ) for the secret phrase draw - all correct entries go into the draw and the winner takes all.

Final Draw:

Individual prizes of:

500 VYB delegation for 3 months (open to all)

500 POB delegation for 3 months (open to all)

1 x 50 HP delegation for 3 months (from me) AND an additional 1 x 100 HP delegation for 1 month kindly sponsored by @itsostylish (Only open to those who have less than 200 HP AND who have joined since 1st February 2022) - so the winner gets the full 150HP delegation.

2HBI

5 HBD - kindly sponsored by @penderis

1 x 20 PIZZA

1 x 16 LOLZ

4 x 10 LUV

Delegations are subject to the delegees remaining active and ethical on the blockchain and I reserve the right to withdraw them with immediate effect if any instances of unethical, antagonistic, or insensitive behaviour come to light during the period of the delegation. Additionally, if the delegee is not using the time to increase their staked Hive, the purpose of the delegation being to enable the delegee some time to build their account and therefore their resource credits, then the delegation will be withdrawn and reassigned to somebody else.

Daily prizes will be handed out during the week. I will publish a winners' post at the end of the post's active 7-day period.

Right here is the list of posts within which the emojis and secret word are hidden - hide and seek has started!

Dreemer's posts (there will be 5 water buffalo hidden across a random selection of 5 of the below posts):

Sharon's Predicament
Dark Circle and Dreams

My Hive Keys and Security
Do You Know a Thing or Two About Malaria

hahaha... I always seem to create more questions than I provide the answers for !LOLZ !ALIVE The animals and words will be in the comments to the linked posts. Not all posts will have an animal or secret word hidden within their comments. But I have asked that people write a meaningful comment on each post they read if they want to count the hidden animal or word from that post's comments. And if you want to support the author, upvote the author's post. The comment hiding the animal does not require upvoting, but if you wish to upvote it to change its position in the comments and make it harder for others to find... haha go for it... I have hidden the first set... but I will not be hiding the rest for the remaining 4 days 😂😂😂 Somebody else will be doing this. !LUV !PIZZA

(Edited)

they will be found in the comment section of any of the listed posts. so follow the links to the different posts, find a hidden animal or the hidden word in a comment. Then don't reply to that comment or even mention the animal or word, just make a comment on the authors post (required) and upvote if you wish. You are looking for 5 water buffalo, 1 tiger and a secret word ... report back here as to how many animals you found and which and keep the secret word for reporting back on Friday :-) does that help? !PIZZA

Whoever is directly controlling the V2K told me to kill myself.
They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.


They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

https://peakd.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?

Found it.

Anyway, Monday 5 buffalo 🐃 1 🐅 1 secret word😁

@wrestlingdesires @blezyn @khaleesii @hopestylist @queenstarr you 5 were the ones who entered on Monday.

I gave a pass to anyone who did not comment on the read.cash post that was targeted as not everyone will have been registered on that site. So I assumed that you all found that one on Olasquare's post.

Having checked the remaining 4 Hive posts, there is only one person who actually commented on all the posts and therefore validated their claim of finding all the water buffalo lol and that is @wrestlingdesires who wins the token package for Monday's daily contest. The tokens will be sent over on Tuesday. Everyone else seemed to miss the water buffalo in the post "I have done it again... Gosh". I am super tired now... so will send them once I am awake again lol.

You all did brilliantly though. I will do a short post tomorrow morning with the next set of Dreemport posts to review for leopards lol and anyone who wants to enter the Tuesday daily draw can go hunt them down haha.
I will keep a tally of your totals for the draw at the end of the week. Keep up the good work... at this rate and with current low uptake in the contest entries, you are increasing your chance of a prize at the end of the week❣️

Tally so far:
@wrestlingdesires 5 buffalo, 1 tiger
@blezyn 4 buffalo, 1 tiger
@khaleesii 4 buffalo, 1 tiger
@hopesylist 4 buffalo, 1 tiger
@queenstarr 4 buffalo, 1 tiger
@farmgirl, 1 tiger
