A few minutes ago, I ran contest in which I gave away 10 Steem.
See the details here for the Giveaway.

Why did I do this?
I wanted to run an experiment to see the interest in such a giveaway. I got a good deal of participation for a 1 hour contest (35 votes). I think the incentive was the right amount (10 Steem). I believe the rules were easy and not too laborious for the participants.
Also, I also wanted to give a change to reward a user who may or may not have experienced much success on the Steemit platform.

You wanna do a fair draw... video the process... takes a few minutes but then we can actually see if its fair or not. A screen capture program could record the number gen process and show where that falls on the list. For all we know @kodi is an account you bought earlier from one of the posts you made.

Are you kidding me! I've spent the last hour and half running this contest and you have the nerve to call me a scammer. I have no interest in scamming anyone. I've been in this community from the Bitshares days. I purchased the first PTS from Super3. You might want to check your history before you start accusing people.
Do your homework first, Sir.

I didnt say you were a scammer and I didnt say you were not a scammer... I said that with the information given the only conclusion would be that we do not know either way. RELAX BUD

I did my homework... I viewed your previous posts stating that you were looking to buy others private keys for bitcoin... then I checked out your bitshares just meow... Account looks gravy... not sure what it matters... then supplied my point of view on how the contest could be improved... you were the one who put the idea of scam in my head from your own words.

Thank You @pairmike
Why did you participate?
I saw your post on the We Love Steemit group on Facebook. Also I have been thinking of doing a giveaway of my own and wanted to follow this.
Would you be likely to in the future?
Yes.
What other tasks on would you be willing to perform to be eligible for a giveaway prize?
Sharing via Twitter etc.
Did you think the giveaway was fair?
Yes, maybe allow more time in future to allow others to participate.
Did you initially think it was a scam?
No, but being a Minnow I guess I don't have to worry about my $0.00 upvote. Having seen your first Steem Marketplace post I had no reason to believe this would not to be genuine.
Did you believe it was true, that you had won?
No I never win anything. 1/35 odds are a lot better than the usual giveaways.
When you received the funds in your wallet, how did it make you feel?
Made me feel warm and @officialfuzzy inside.
Did your excitement for the Steemit platform increase/decrease or stay the same?
I am excited about the Steemit platform, anything to bring in more users does increase that.
Will you tell others about the Steem Giveaway?
I have, hopefully they can join in on some more giveaways in future!
