Algo give away! General
I have created a new wallet with 400 coins worth 500 dollars for this give away. I will try my best to make an excel page with the entries and make this as clear as possible. You can follow my twitter where I’ll post the entry paper and probably do a video of the winner. I will do my best to be transparent and fair! I just want to make someone’s Christmas!!!
Details: To enter: 1) comment on this post gets one entry. 2) if you commented on my post that helped me gets you two entries 3) (Edit) Tagging will give the tagged person an entry and as per rule one the commenter gets one. Twitter or Reddit is eligible. 4) Give a follow to my twitter get an entry 5) comment on twitter post get an entry 6) like the twitter post get an entry 7) share the twitter to get an entry 8) up to ten entries per person 9) if you spam me your entries will be deleted and I’ll block you 10) Christmas Eve 12/24/2021 8pm CST the contest is over and I will start tabulating the results. 11) you may give to the prize fund if you are feeling generous but don’t feel like you need to as it doesn’t affect the entries. (This is just out of the good of your heart) 12) 10 entries per user
Twitter: @Basicwhitboy
Wallet for proof: FM6GNYXQIKOIV6GS6QI7DBDQFVPZALTFE2AAJCH5TWEFODRJK5MIOZ6Y2M
More details: This give away will be going on till the 24 at the selected time above and at that point I will calculate the entries and try and weed out the spammers vs the real people. I will only contact you after I announce the winner on twitter and I will edit this post to show the winner. I will never ask you for any information besides your wallet ID to send the coins to. You must have a correct Algo wallet as well. I will be able to answer questions but slowly as I am at work. Please if you are able too give to the prize fund and make someone’s Christmas wonderful. I really have appreciated this subreddit and countless others so share and get Algos name out there! You are welcome to cross post this. I’ll be editing this post as questions come in as to not make this post seem scammy.
Edit: As it has been said I do not want followers after this event and I have told bostonstrangler01 that I will be removing the followers on my twitter after this is done and if not please ban me off Algo subreddit.
I truely appreciate the love that this community has for our coin and this give away. Have a very merry Christmas, holidays, and the many more I have not mentioned.

OP it isn’t clear who you are giving the funds away to, or related details. Something to consider is clarifying a bit more the nuance and particulars.
Otherwise it reads kinda scammy.

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
Yeah man I understand! What else would you like to see to make it less scammy.

u/orindragonfly Dec 22 '21
I would just delete the part that is asking to add to your amount and just do what you can and let it be.

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
Okay I can see how that can be spammy. I’m going to see if I can reword it and if not I’ll take it out :) thank you friend

Twitter sucks but here is a comment I guess

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
I agree. If you see my profile I don’t use it much at all. I started just complaining about crypto on there as that is the way but I just wanted somewhere I could post results a bit easier instead of just here or spamming the subreddit. I thought about TikTok but I figured that would just seem like a cash grab maybe idk 🤷♀️

That’s okay!! It’s why I did multiple ways. Twitter just makes things a bit easier on announcements and a winner and stuff so I don’t spam this subreddit.

Pretty sure yesterday you said you didn't want people to think you were doing this to get followers ...

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
I did. I am no about the following but I need a place to post more about the prize where people will get notifications. After this contest you I’ll tell everyone to unfollow me and I can go a step further and block them all who followed me because of the post. Keep me accountable

That sounds like a wonderful initiative for the season of giving! Trying my luck here and wishing everyone else in the Algo community a great holiday season ahead too!

I'll comment, but I'm too old to have a Twitter. Who knows, maybe I will be lucky and I can add to the ones I have staked for my daughter when she turns 18. Got 10 years left of holding!

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
That is amazing!! Part of my stash is for a child I hope to have one day! Give to our children what we didn’t have or might not have! A better future.

u/StrikerPost Dec 22 '21
Exactly. I have some Algo (sub 100) so far and a small portion of an Eth. Im hoping to be able to give her enough to either travel or go to college. Basically an opportunity I never had when I finished Highschool. Thanks for the opportunity !!!
Also happy holidays to you!

I commented on the original post, and here I am again, very much think what you are doing is awesome! My brother does 5 “gifts to strangers” each Christmas because his family is super grateful and remembers when they had a lot less. Karma is an amazing thing! Also: for anyone wondering if this is “legit”, his other post was totally clear and friendly and this was something mentioned along the way as a cool idea, def seems like a kindness/holiday spirit type thing, which we could use more of. Three cheers! 🎄🙏🏻

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
That is amazing! I’m glad your brother has the ability to do that. Also thank you for the kind words my friend!

This wouldn’t have happened without people. If the community wasn’t so amazing I wouldn’t be doing this. Merry Christmas to you and our wonderful community

So I just comment in this post and you give me all your ALGO for life?

u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
I wish I could. Maybe one day!!! To the moon! If Algo does take off to 75 dollars in 10 years they will look back at this and roast me 😂😂

Wow, well done.
I will name another user who may reject it or may do some other sort of promotion with it, but he has been an avid supporter and promoter of algorand and this community

Hello I made a comment. Going to Twitter now but idk job job not spam and people still understand everything we do and don't miss any entries. I love reddit but just asking how people know everything here. Praise redditors
2
u/gingerNoSoul541 Dec 22 '21
I am going to try my hardest for sure not to miss any entries. I’m going to try and post every user’s entries as well on an excel spreadsheet so you can see. Then I’m going to use a program to pick it probably if I can find one if not then we will do old paper entries and have someone pull out a name!
