Fergal launched a new contest on ForumCoin back in August 2022.

As of October 19, 2022, there have been 2150 entries. There has also been a random daily drawing for 100 FC paid out to members who have been participating, Thing is, as of this moment, 66% of all entries are from just 5 members.

18 members have now won at least one of those drawings, but the majority of the winnings are going to those same 5 members. One of those has already won 1000 FCs in just this contest.

It is obvious:
The More You Enter, The More You Can Win!

There are approximately 416 more days (as of this moment)
to enter this contest and win 100 FCs.
That is 416 more chances to win!

Once the site hits the one million post mark,

there will be one final drawing for $100 USD.

Right this moment, it appears that huge pot is likely to be given to one of those five frequent posters. Are you going to just sit by and let them have it?

What are you waiting for?
Plaster that thing
with your frequent entries and cash in!

81377 posts to go.

What a waste of energy. You once campaigned for higher quality posts on Forum Coin, but this is scraping the bottom of the barrel.
I would rather earn 4 Satoshi for clicking a faucet that I can put in a compound interest account than take a million to one chance on winning $100.

You are right. The higher volume of daily posts as a result of this added content are creating an artificial increase in site content to reach that one million post goal. It is only adding a bit of fun for the members but clearly not adding anything close to quality. Reputation scores have been tumbling with the increases in daily post volume.

I still put in the effort to campaign for higher quality content. Every time I find the opportunity to post some milestone event in the FC Achievements topic, I send out a pm begging for higher quality content with the award. That is the only place I spend my earnings on this site.

Quote from those pm letters:

The best way to earn reputation points is to always make sure you fully read the original post in any topic where you want to participate so you can provide a reply that fits the topic. It is also to your advantage to at least review any existing content to better understand the conversation and so you don't just repeat something that has already been said. Do your very best to contribute content that adds new and unique educational content about the topic. Don't post anything that does not add value to the topic and never wander off topic.

a million to one chance on winning $100

Thanks for your feedback oldbuddy, your chances of winning are much greater than that. You get an entry for every reply you make in the topic. The draw will be held when there are one million posts in total on ForumCoin. When that happens there will be much, much less than one million replies in that lotto topic.

I would love to win $100 reward but there is a high chance that I may miss so my suggestion would be to split the reward in $10 to 10 users to make more users happy

Yes 4 winners of 25 usd each or 10 different users 10 $ should be ok

I am so intrigued with this scheme here. Since I am still a newbie, I have not explored this matter yet. I will check it further soon.
