Hi Steemit! My name is Jason and I am the owner and operator of Crowdini.
Shout to @brandonk for introducing me to Steemit!
What is Crowdini?
Crowdini is a question and answer game. We ask you to answer one (1) opinion based question a day and give you points based on how your answer compares to the majority answer. At the end of the game the player with the most points wins the #CrowdiniPrize.
We also choose one player everyday who voted the previous day to win the #DailyPrize.
It is designed to be something you can do in less than a minute a day but hopefully sparks conversation and thought.
How to Play Crowdini
Crowdini is very easy to play. You can play it on your desktop, laptop or mobile device. The game runs at Crowdini.com.
Sign up here. You can use your Google account, Facebook account or create your own username/password credentials.
After creating your account and username, you will be taken to the home page to answer today's question. It looks like this: (This is the live question for September 22, 2017, screenshot taken on my Android device)

----------
After you select your answer you will see the confirmation screen...
(
We give you 10 seconds to change your answer. If you want to change your answer tap the red Choose again button and you will be taken back to the question. If you want to lock in your answer you can either do nothing or tap the green Lock In button. After 10 seconds your answer will be locked in.
And that's it. You are done for today.
Before I tell you what's next here is a little more about how the game works...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The daily question opens at 10 am eastern each day. You have 24 hours to answer the question. So today's question will close at 10 am eastern tomorrow and a new question will open immediately.
Each question is multiple choice with 2-5 answers. All questions are opinion based, there are no right answers. And questions can be about anything.
Games last about 2 weeks at a time. We start a game each month on the 1st and the 16th. The current game is named FIESTA and ends September 30th.
Back to what happens when a question closes
-------------------------------------------
When a question closes, all the votes are tallied and each answer is given the same amount of points as the percentage of the votes the answer received. So if your answer received 60% of the votes you would receive 60 points for that question.
We send you a daily email at 10:05 am eastern showing you how you did the previous day. (BTW, you can turn off email notifications in your account page if you prefer)
At least twice each game we ask Bonus questions. For these questions we ask you predict something and then after that event happens we award 100 bonus points to the answer that actually happened.
Then after the last question closes for the game, we tally up all the points and award a 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize to the players with top 3 point totals. We call this the #CrowdiniPrize.
If you want to learn more, including how you can refer other players to earn extra points. Go to the Crowdini How To page.
How this game will benefit Steemit!
-----------------------------------
You might remember above that I mentioned the #CrowdiniPrize and #DailyPrize.
Currently the #CrowdiniPrize is a giftcard to Amazon, Google Play or iTunes (winner's choice). 25USD for first, 15USD for second and 5USD for third. I am adding a 4th option now. STEEM!
So the winner will have the option of getting their prize in STEEM.
ALSO
We do a #DailyPrize everyday. How it works is I choose a voter from the previous day and give them 2USD via PayPal or Venmo. I am now adding STEEM as a choice for the #DailyPrize.
So that's my introduction. Love to you all!
