First off, Happy Hive Power Up Day to all of you! I've been trying to do slightly stronger power ups than I used to do, often the minimum. I had enough liquid from a Hive buy the other day to power up 50 today.
Bringing me up to 8,660 total HP! I really am pushing myself to get to 10K, I can almost taste it! Now onto the Sunday Giveaway.
This little initiative of mine started rather small and meek over a year ago now. I recall being happy to just get six or seven entrants in the contest and I really thought the event might only last a few months, but it has grown month after month. Today's giveaway had 50 participants, I'm pretty sure that is a new record! Thank you everyone for engaging in this fun event.
Not only has the number of people playing gone up, but the prizes have as well. All five regular spin winners now receive HSBI units thanks to the support of two generous Hive members 
The contest now has more prizes than just HSBI and DUO. There is also some BBH, CCD, and UNICOIN. Typically the tokens I give out come from my own personal stack. However,

Now diving into last weeks responses, it was about choosing your ultimate dream pet. There were some great responses:
Dog

The dog just always seems to win when it comes to pet questions. Here is a Shiba Inu, just makes you think about DOGE coin. This particular breed was chosen by 
Dragon

Who wouldn't want their own personal dragon? That would very cool! A giant guard dog that won't just chase away the mailman, it will incinerate him. Thanks for this fun pick by 
Capybara

This cute South American rodent species were a popular choice. They are semiaquatic in nature and are found all over South America except in the nation of Chile. They live in dense forests near bodies of water, and adapt well to living in zoos and even as pets. So maybe you really could have one as a pet! Thanks to 
Cat

This domestic feline was a popular choice, as many people already have cats and would never give them up. I grew up with cats and dogs, so I like them both. They are cute and very soft! Thanks to 
and 
Horse
helpfulhorsehints.com
Where I grew up many of the neighbors owned horses. So I learned to ride them relatively young, even though I've never owned one. They are very expensive to purchase and care for is what I understand. So no horses in my near future! Thanks for this great pick by 
Tyrannosaurus Rex
ar.inspiredpencil.com
This extinct dinosaur would have been an interesting pet. Nobody would mess with you for sure if one of these lived in your front yard. The only hard part would be convincing it not to eat you. This was picked by 
Tiger
a-z-animals.com
These are such beautiful animals, if only they wouldn't try to eat you for lunch. Tigers have been kept in captivity for thousands of years and even the most well trained ones still turn on their owners from time to time. Siegfried & Roy could have attested to that as one of their white tigers attacked Roy during a show in Las Vegas back in 2003. I would prefer to observe these beautiful creatures from a safe distance! Thanks to 
Chanchocornio
This half pig/ half unicorn was created by the daughter of my friend
Unicorn

We all knew it would show up here somewhere, and here it is! It would be a great pet to have. Especially with all the magical powers, I want one too! Thanks for choosing this one 
Gizmo

And I couldn't possibly leave out the pick by by friend 
As always I am running out of space and time so I'll sum up the last few. A goat was a pick by 
A hawk was picked by 
And finishing up 
Now for today's entry question...
What is your favorite game?
The Giveaway
I will be giving out one prize of five (5) HSBI. Second and Third prizes will be 2 DUO tokens, the token I recently launched with 
I currently have sponsors who also kick in some HSBI units to the second, third, fourth, and fifth regular spin winners. None on the bonus spins. The sponsors can still enter the giveaway, however, if they happen to win on one of the spins they sponsor I will re-spin the wheel for another winner. You can't sponsor HSBI units to yourself!
If you would like to be placed on a weekly reminder list just let me know and I'll make sure you get tagged each week.
How to Enter
Every week this will change. I'm looking for engagement rather than just saying "I am in". There is no need to upvote or re-blog, although if you choose to do so I would appreciate it. This week's question is: What is your favorite game?
HSBI
If you are unfamiliar with the prize you can learn more here:
Or check out my recent post:

Choosing the Winners
All valid entries will be placed on the Wheel of Names and I will spin it four times. The first prize will be 5 HSBI units. The second and third prize will be two DUO tokens. Fourth prize will be 100 BBH tokens. Fifth prize will be 250 CCD tokens. And since I am spinning the same wheel four times in a row it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all four prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?
Deadline
One week from today which will be Sunday June 8, 2025 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.
