[Closed] Moonthumb's Mysterious Wheel of Random Prizes Giveaway - Ep. 7 (Why does this keep happening to me?)
So maybe somebody can explain why this keeps happening to me. I'm sure it is just something I don't understand because I don't see anyone else writing about this phenomenon, but it's driving me nuts. Actually, there are two phenomena (that's multiple phenomenons if you didn't figure that out), but I am thinking they might be related.
#1 - Whenever I upvote a comment in this post, about half the time, it doesn't show that any rewards on the comment. My vote power goes down, but my upvote shows 0.000000. I thought this was associated with the hard fork, but this is still happening on posts I have created since the hard fork.
#2 - Whenever I try to contribute ENGAGE tokens, it does not appear they are being sent. I try to send 5 ENGAGE tokens to everyone that qualifies, but it looks like that feature is no longer working for me.
Does anybody have an explanation for either of these issues?
Well...enough about my trials. Now lets talk about the giveaway. The other day, I made a 12-pack purchase in Rising Star (you can read about that here). Therefore, I have added some new cards to my collection that I can place on the wheel. Since we gave away i16 Cheap Cello last time, I thought I would replace it with a i31 Cheap Decks. I know, I know, it's not a rare, but most of the rares I got were unique cards for me. Maybe I'll get more duplicates the next time I get a 12-pack. Here's what the wheel looks like for today's prize selection:
Now let's take a look at some of the rules for this giveaway:
Rule #1: Read the entire post to make sure you find all of the rules that apply to this giveaway.
Rule #2:
We didn't do quite as well on the participation this time, but we still had 14 people qualify (which is enough for a spin). I think twelve is a good minimum number of qualified participants for this giveaway. BONUS: If we reach 25 qualified participants, I will spin for TWO winners).
So, let's see what the prize will be for this giveaway. And the wheel says...
Now back to the rules for the this giveaway...
Rule #3:
If your Rising Star and/or Splinterlands username is different from the one you commented with, include them in your comment. Or if you want to give your winnings to someone else, enter their username instead and indicate that you want your prize to go to them. However, there can only be ONE entry for each account [for example, if my username is @moonthumb and I want to give my winnings to @theroad2freedom, I can add that name to my entry, but @theroad2freedom cannot submit another entry with their own name]. Also, in the interest of fairness, please only include one entry per person. I try to give everyone an equal chance to win. If I find out someone is using more than one account, I will ban those accounts from the giveaway. Additionally, only one person can qualify for each account that makes a comment (for example, you can either qualify for yourself or someone else, but you cannot do both. However, you are always free to tag someone else in your comment so that they are aware of the giveaway and can enter for themselves).
The next thing we need to do is fill up the wheel with participants. Here's what the qualifier wheel looked like:
And now for the final rule of this giveaway...
Rule #4:
Please be aware that I use these rules to make sure people are reading the post and to help eliminate bots. IF YOU DO NOT ANSWER THIS QUESTION IN YOUR REPLY, YOU WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR THIS GIVEAWAY! So the question is...In Rising Star, what is the instrument in your collection with the oddest name (in my 12-pack, I got a R72 Nadaswaram)?
And coincidentally, the winner of the Flame Monkey is...
(Yes, I spun the wheel after I did a screen capture of the participants.)
Congratulations to @gregory-f!

Thank you for the Flame Monkey! I guess my strangest is R12 808 Drum Machine (I only have two instruments).
My pleasure.
I realize not everyone has cards with peculiar names, but I've seen several strange ones (I have a few). You are qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
creo que el mas extraño que tengo en mi coleccion es el R58 Swarmandal el nombre es extraño jajaj saludos y suerte para todos
That is one that I still need to get. You're qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
@Kurogan want to participate.
the oddest card name in my deck? It's "R64 RS 30 Guitar Synth"
Thank you for the giveaway
Welcome to Moonthumb's Mysterious Wheel of Random Prizes Giveaway. Glad you could join us.
Keep playing and I'm sure you'll see an odd one some time soon. You have qualified for this giveaway.
!ENGAGE 10
I think rusty mic
While the name doesn't sound that odd, I would think it odd to keep one of those around. I know I wouldn't want to sing in one. You're qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
At this point I feel like It's my Unidine Mic
I have one of those (two actually). I don't have any other epics (for now). I find it strange to only have two epics and they are both the same. You're qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
swarmandal
That one is definitely a mouthful. You have qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
I think my oddest instrument is R73 Udukai, thanks for the contest, please list me :D!
That's one of the new ones I don't have yet. Maybe I'll get one in my next 12-pack. You are qualified for the next spin.
!ENGAGE 10
congrats @gregory-f
you are a real giveaway guru :)
I am in again so lets see whats my oddest named card, lol now I went to my cards and had to laugh I have no odd names except maybe R47 Griff. Makes me wonder how he got his name...
!BEER !ESPIZZA
¡@moonthumb! Te he enviado un trozo de $PIZZA de parte de @solymi.
Más información sobre la ficha de $PIZZA at hive.pizza (3/10)
I never though about it much. That is kind of unusual for the name of a person. You are qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
For me it's the swarmandal. Thanks for the giveaway !PIZZA
@moonthumb! I sent you a slice of $PIZZA on behalf of @mimismartypants.
Learn more about $PIZZA Token at hive.pizza (8/10)
That one seems pretty popular. I'm still looking for it, though. You are qualified.
!ENGAGE 10
I think it's discontinued. So you have to buy on the market. but I a few. Will send you one tomorrow when I'm at my pc!
mm thats a weird question... my collection its not really big so i guess the odd one is "cheap decks"
Keep collecting and you'll get one soon enough. You have qualified for the giveaway.
!ENGAGE 10
as I do not play Rising Star I cannot really tell. Still would like to enter for the love of Splinterlands :P
Welcome to Moonthumb's Mysterious Wheel of Random Prizes Giveaway. Not everyone enjoys both Rising Star and Splinterlands and that's OK. You can still qualify for the giveaway...and you have.
!ENGAGE 10

Des Appalling is the weirdest one
