I've been thinking for a while regarding the small set of rules that could be implemented for the contest to be based on... Considering the community feedback, this is the set of assumptions I'm currently considering:

Rules:

  • Pie must be made by yourself and the theme should be Bitcoin related (you could even include a homage to bitcointalk Smiley ).
  • In order to be qualified you should post a picture containing your homemade pie + a piece of paper with your username and date;
  • Only 1 entry per user (you're free to include any number of pies on your picture);
  • Competition will be held in two phases:
    • 1st Phase - From 14th February to 14th of March : This is where all the users are free to submit their entries;
    • 2nd Phase - Voting process from 15th of March to 19th of March. Winner shall be announced on the 20th of March. I believe that the voting should be made by means of MERITING, but I'm willing to discuss this with the community (also, another thread would be made);
  • The prize would be distributed according to the following quantity: 1st Winner would get 60 % of the price pool, 2nd winner 30 % and the 3rd one would get 10 %;
  • Accounts prior to a certain date are excluded from taking part on the contest;
  • No minimum entries for the contest to run;

Prize:

  • Passport Foundation Batch 2 / Trezor Model One -> Replaced by BTC only (to preserve users identity/personal information). As of now, the total size of the pot is the following:

UsernameAmount (BTC)
RickDeckard0.0065
Total0.0065

Questions to the community:

  • What would make you more at ease? I could post a donation address to whoever wanted to contribute to the amount in the pot, controlled by me (and that would mean that the community would have to trust me) or I can try to talk to a fellow escrow that I know to hold all the funds (including my own funding);
  • Should I change some rules? Or even add more? I want it to be a fair contest for everyone but also prevent double posting from users who may create new accounts for example ...

Looking forward for any feedback.
