Sigh.
Still not quite 100% over this flu yet. I started to feel a little better this morning and then I overworked myself in an attempt to make up for being down for three days, and found out that I am not quite better yet. Definitely over did it today. But enough about me. Let's learn something!
Contest Day 6
I know, I fall further behind on these every day. Cut me a little slack, I have been really sick. That green text up there is a link to the previous contest. If you go to that link and scroll to the comments at the bottom, you can see the interesting facts that were submitted to the last contest! Maybe you learn something you didn't know yourself? Be sure to Upvote the comments that you learn something from, or laugh at (some of the entries are more comical that informational).Rules for participation.
Tell me Something I Don't Know.
Leave me a meaningful comment below with a random bit of trivia knowledge (if you don't know what a meaningful comment is, make sure you read the post by @ogochuckwu linked at the bottom of this post). It doesn't have to be the most fantastic bit of knowledge, it just has to be true. If you post something really hard to believe, I may ask you to cite your source or link me to something that backs up your bit of info. If you cannot provide me with SOMETHING (a webpage, a news report, ANYTHING) to back up you claim I will not consider it a valid entry and I will not Upvote your entry. If you say something like "The Queen of England can bench press 900 pounds plus three midgets hanging off the side of the weights", I am probably not going to believe you. Like I said, it just has to be true (and somewhat verifiable).All entrants will get a small Upvote for participating, (One Entry Per Person Per Day!!!) and my top three favorite will receive a 100% Upvote, a 75% Upvote and a 50% Upvote for teaching me something new that day.
Replies need to be in English or translated to English (If I can't read it, I can't judge it). You have about twenty three hours (give or take an hour depending on what time I get online that day) to make submissions to this post, at which time I will give out rewards and post the new Day's contest. Be sure to check the comments and support the other entrants. I highly encourage engagement in the comments section, and the vast majority of my Upvote power is used on comments. Earning rewards just for talking to each other is my favorite part of the platform, and I highly recommend Upvoting each others entries in the replies to this post! If the first three comments have Upvotes from me (the first one will be about a dollar), then I have already given out prizes for this contest, but the next one will be out shortly!
You must Upvote this post to be considered a "valid entry". This is not because I want the rewards from your vote. This is because I rent delegated Steempower to provide larger Upvotes as prizes to my contests, and your Upvote on this post helps me pay for that delegation, and spread more rewards to more users!
As always, thanks for taking the time to read my post!
