Who doesn't like competitions? Especially when they are super easy and you can win cryptocurrency for your effort. Utilising 100% of my single brain cell thinking capacity I came up with this unique , and relatively simple game that anyone can enter and you could win upto 10 Steem!
This competition is super easy, all you have to do is guess how many coffee beans are in my clear plastic drip filter. I'm not expecting anyone to guess exactly - so the winner will be decided based on guessing the correct number of beans in the drip filter, with a tolerance of 5 beans either side (so winners are anyone guessing the exact amount or within 5 beans higher or lower). In the event nobody get's that close even I will keep expanding 5 beans either side until we have winners. The 10 Steem will be distributed evenly throughout winning guesses - so if there are 5 winning guesses 2 Steem each. And of course only 1 correct answer - 10 Steem!
It's not a competition without rules, so I have further caused my single brain cell distress in coming up with this collection of requirements to play the competition.
The first rule of bean count competition is you must talk about bean count competition - Resteem this post if you wish to join in, entries will be checked and if you guess right and have not resteemed then sorry you will not win anything.
The second rule of bean count competition is you DO NOT have to upvote this post. Yes, you read that right I don't expect you to upvote this post to enter - I know for many of our Steemians Vote Power % drops quickly and if you do not have the % slider you have limited votes. While it's awesome if you do upvote this post - you don't have to - save it for a favourite post you find, someone you come across and think that's a really great post - upvote them instead - you could even leave a nice comment like "I upvoted your post because @c0ff33a told me I didn't have to upvote his" - just make sure you also tell them what you really liked about their post because that is super important when you leave a comment.
Here I present you with the Beans - I hand counted these coffee beans into the drip filter - and I know exactly how many are in there. To be honest I was going to fill it - but counting beans is super boring so after two full hand fulls counted into this drip filter I decided that was enough!
I did think this clear dripper would be...clearer? Turns out not so much, so to make this a little easier for you all the number of beans is somewhere between 0 and 400 - just to rule out those wild 100 billion guesses.
I think I maybe made this too hard - it's impossible to really tell how many there might be so it's going to be total guess work. If you have access to coffee beans I counted out two hand fulls - that might help. Except I have small womens hands, and moobs (I put that in because @bluefinstudios finds it amusing)
To enter in this fun competition please do the following:-
1. Resteem this post
2. Leave a comment with your guess of the number of coffee beans in my dripper in the range 0 to 400.
3. You can guess more then one time, but in the event you guess more then one number in the winning range - you will only be counted as a single winning competior.
4. Look out for my post on Thursday 23rd August around this time for the winner announcement.

I just want to say those beans look hmm noooom. I grew up by a factory who used to grind coffee beans so that smell imprinted in my brain. I eat one or two also sometimes with my coffee if they are served out... no proper coffee is done in this house for a long time, sigh.
Not entering the competition because I am honest I never resteem unless it's related with the feed and been waiting FOREVER for steem to separate "shares" from "posts". Same with others when I go and visit their profiles, so I hate to sound diva-ish I resteem few times and skip contests if I have too... if not I'd give it a go, but upvoting anyway, cos IT'S COFFEE! AND some of my friends are here participating, and because of the memory smell you just made me remember.

This game was a really good idea until I started counting the beans out - sssssooo boring. And you can't cheat and like weigh ten beans and times it - because the beans are never excactly the same - different size, shape and even weight is different they loose different amounts of moisture when roasting.

Thank you very much, I have to admire you upvoted my post because I saw you didn't have to - because it's exactly what I would have done!

and yeah, we are too curious that if we see a danger sign then we wish to know what could be the danger thing.
you haven't tell anything about my guess, I've the upper side and multiple it to 4x times on a guess. then added some extra bean.

Good question - it's my competition and I didn't state how many answers you can give so if you wish to guess again you can - if any answer is close enough it will win - but only one correct answer per account - so if anyone guesses two or three times within the range it only counts as one entry from them.

Sounds good to me. I am still thinking about it. My math is all screwy now that your glass is a coned chape. There is a math equation that can be used for the normal jars but this makes it more difficult. Everything it to be taken into consideration. Type of coffee will tell what size of bean, circumference of the glass, how many layers in the glass, but since its coffee, it goes in all which ways so can't count layers. You have made that quite difficult. Good job :D

I will use a different container for the next one - but it's really is so very boring counting the beans out. I really had intended to fill that dripper - but once I had filled it the pictured quarter way - and it gets wider so holds even more - I decided no way I spending all night counting beans!
