Steemit Lotto Weekly # 13 - Minimum Pot Size 51 STEEM!!!!

Welcoming the new year with a fresh Lotto game and it is the 13th edition for the game since it started. The minimum pot size for this week is 51 Steem. Did we have some lucky winners for this first game for 2018??? 1 SBD has been sent to Hive account@marisolhidalgo for being the first person to play the Lotto game this year :)

Week # 10 - Lucky Numbers

9-10-12-14-22-32

Below is the official video of the draw live as it happened.

0.165 SBD (12.5% of the liquid payout) has been sent to Hive account@elbrava for correctly guessing 3 correct numbers.

Start writing your entries in the comment section by following the rules below to be eligible to play.

This is a weekly game which will run at 19 00 (GMT) every Sunday.

The numbers will be randomly selected every Sunday evening using random.org to generate numbers randomly for the game. The process will be recorded and made available in the next post to announce the winners for transparency.

The game's rule has been simplified to only 5 steps:

UPVOTE THIS POST
The person must guess 6 numbers between 1 - 40 and write it in the comment below
The person has the option to write a maximum of 3 combinations of 6 numbers
A number can be chosen only once, meaning you cannot repeat a number that you have already used. Eg, 1-20-24-35-36-37 is correct whereas 1-20-20-24-35-36 is incorrect as the number 20 has been used twice.
The number should be seperated by a dash (-) with no spaces in between. Eg. 10-11-16-25-30-32
All winning possibilities are as follows

Winning possibilities	Reward
6 numbers correctly guessed	Pot size + 50% post SBD reward
5 numbers correctly guessed	25% post SBD reward
4 numbers correctly guessed	12.5% post SBD reward
3 numbers correctly guessed	12.5% post SBD reward

How are the rewards distributed?

If there is more than 1 winner per category, the reward will be divided among all the winners as described in the table above.
The SBD reward of this post will be added to the minimum pot size. Eg. If this post receives 100 SBD as payout, the winner(s) will win 100 SBD + 100 STEEM as reward to be distributed among all.
If there is no winner, the SBD reward of the post will be added to the pot size. Eg. If this post receives 100 SBD as payout and there is no winner, the minimum pot size for next week will be increased to 100 STEEM + post SBD payout converted to STEEM!

A summary of the year
