What is Crowdini?

Crowdini is a question and answer game. We ask you to answer one question a day and give you points based on how your answer compares to the majority answer.

We have incorporated Steemit in a new innovative way. Read more about Crowdini and how we have incorporated Steemit in our intro post here.

At the end of the game the top 3 in points split 90% of the prize pool and all other players who voted on every question for that game will split 10% of the prize pool.

It is designed to be something you can do in a few seconds a day but hopefully sparks conversation and thought.

Truthfully the opposite but I theorize you were using the image to possibly influence the answers, and thus I believe this might be the majority.

I won't be unkind to someone, but I am honest and more blunt so as not to screw them over later. It gives them more opportunity to find someone else to do the thing.

But if I care about someone, I'm most likely to do it even if I don't want to, just to help them out.

I wasn't trying to use the image to influence the answers. This question was extremely hard to get an image that didn't choose one of the answers.

I usually try to do everything I can to keep the image as neutral as possible.

My favorite comment!

I wasn't sure since you had said something was new with the image that time around. Happy to be wrong, though I honestly didn't mind much either way! :)

Being nice tends to get me in trouble when dealing with my stupid friends. "No you can't borrow my truck to move your shit"


I answered

This was a hard question because it would depend on the situation and whether I would eventually end up doing the thing. But assuming I didn't intend to do the thing, it would be better for the friend to know upfront so they can make other plans.

Missing the option of "Pretend like you're super stoked to do it anyway because you're too nice for your own good."


I answered

Cave and do whatever they want.

Don’t burn bridges. Doesn’t hurt to try and be congenial.


I answered

A good friend will understand and appreciate being direct. If not, then they're not that good of a friend.


I answered

It is better to live life simply and make things simple all the time. Gray areas are complicated, better make things clear in black and white if you can.


I answered

A true friend will surely understand my opinion


I answered

This question is basically impossible to answer. There is definitely a decision tree that goes in to this answer. Assuming it's someone whose friendship I truly value then it depends on what they're asking.

Do I not want to do it because I think its morally wrong? Then I'd call them on it because I hold my friends to a higher standard.

Because I'm busy? I'd tell them when I would have time to help them or help them find someone else who could help them.

Because its something I don't enjoy? I'd probably do it anyways and tell them they owe me.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

What a complicated question! Truth is I wonder if there is a compromise anywhere? What is it they are asking me to do?


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

Neither, really. I'd be a grown ass man, and tell them how I felt about the sitch, and why. If they had issues, then we converse about it and see of there are other options. If not... then so be it, and we figure it out like adults.


I answered

Honesty is the best policy!


I answered

A friend will appreciate directness and honesty over passive aggressiveness, and being passive aggressive is a good way to lose a friend.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

This way gives them more time to find someone to help.


I answered

Honesty pays off in the long run

Make it as awkward as possible


I answered

More people need to be straight forward.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

I don’t know. I’d probably hem and haw and be nice cuz I’m basically a damn marshmallow.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

Being nice (real or fake niceness) is VERY overrated. Honesty is the best policy and if a person doesn't believe that and act that way, then I wouldn't value their friendship in the first place.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

where's the third option (and the one I would pick) of "suck it up and do the thing you don't want to b/c you value them and know they would do the same for you". That being said friends should always be able to be direct and honest


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

I believe that you should always be honest, but that doesn't mean that you can't do it in a nice way. So I always worry about being nice, but that just means I have to try harder if I'm giving unpleasant opinions or turning someone down.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

I’d rather be honest than leave someone hanging.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

Whenever I leave things unclear it causes many more problems than being direct and honest. If it is a true friendship they be appreciative that I am being honest.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

Where's the option to do it anyway?


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

I try to be as nice as possible... But it won't be nice to not let them know that I don't want to do this. This is a very precise question that choosing what to do depends on case-to-case bases.


I answered
respond direct and honestly that you don't want to do this, not worrying about being nice

Honesty is a virtue.


I answered

I likely value their friendship because I can just be honest with then

I'm really a shy man. Especially from my closest friends. I can not refuse. I always try to help as much as possible for a great friendship
