Hello Bitfie community !
I am a Triskaidekaphile. While most people consider thirteen unlucky , the holy lord of 13s says other wise.
I have sent a "unluck-but-actually-luckfie" ( 13c )
https://blockchain.info/tx/93aab05a8bf1923d7204bdd01c50f95a54a48bf24fed9aa95966bec093699c02

The prophet of the thirteens,
jambola2

(P.S : I may have a bit of bias , being born on the thirteenth of a month )

EDIT : What do I do with the huge transaction fees -.-
You should request between 1$ and 10$

Addressing your EDIT first, apologies for the tx fees. By the nature of Bitfie, any amount over 99 US cents wouldn't be considered a Bitfie, thus requesting an entry fee between one and ten dollars wouldn't work.

I do like your Luckfie suggestion, albeit it'll have to coined Luckie, sans the "f", for it to be dubbed correctly. The only reason selfie has an "f" in it's term is because the root word was "self" with an "ie" added. The term "Bitfie" was coined to be similar to "selfie", hence the use of the letter "f" in its naming. Apologies for any confusion.

Lucky you, you coined the Bitfie "Luckie".

Note : As multiple entries is not allowed , the 6.9$ is not a entry but a contribution and the 7c is made to finance the next person with over 100 posts and who is too cheap to pay 1 c Tongue

EDIT: *jambola2 hides in the corner hoping his claiming of multiple names will not annoy Phin* ( *he wonders if he can call Phinnaeus , Phin* )

Good question! But, there's a simple and fair answer: It doesn't matter! I simply look at the "block chain" tx submitted and if looks close enough, the entry's golden. Just declare what you send and it should be fine.

The only time I may look closer at a transaction is if a new Bitfie word is coined coinciding with some exact amount, but given the exchange rate fluctuating by the hour, it still may be off, hence resorting back to taking one word.

The bottom line, this is the fairest, cheapest, seeded "lottery" (for lack of a better word) I know of currently running.

Firstly, thanks for all your kind suggestions and contributions to date, and I'll address the Luckie aspect first.

Now, you have me confused. I tagges 13 cents as a Luckie based on your experience of the the number 13. Then you want to tagge 7 cents as a Luckie. Ideally, 13 cents should be an Un-luckie, whereas 7 cents is a Luckie. Again, the only reason I opted the first tagging was to honor your birth on the 13th.

Perhaps if I gave you credit for the 7 cents Luckie coinage, then wait to see what you suggest for the 13 cents newly coin term, of which I'm leaning toward Un-luckie.

I'll give you credit for the 6.9 cents term--Sexie-giftie (modified).

You can call me Phinnaeus, Phinn, Phin, Bruno, whatever, as long as you refer to me as TMIBTCITW.

The current prize pool is $141.52.

Besides having the ability to enter free to win 10% of this giveaway, one could win the entire amount via paying a Satoshie (same as satoshi) Bitfie entry fee.

~TMIBTCITW

PS: A little history about Bitfie. Bitfie was coined shortly after Oxford, in its infinite wisdom, opted to make "selfie" their word of the year, knocking Bitcoin, which was one of the final three up for consideration, from gaining that title.

"Bitfie" (with quotes) is now number one and two, among a couple others, on the first page of Google search results, thanks chiefly to this thread and the four domains I registered.

Yikes! What is going on here? I was away for the weekend, visiting my in-laws, ad just got home to where I may be able to hash a vanity address or something, but I have no idea what I'm getting myself involved in. Just a lottery with a random number picker?

Quit licking your fur! It's not just a lottery. It's bringing awareness to Bitfie via a lottery. See the difference?  Roll Eyes Besides, I seeded it with $100 USD. So far the monies are in my control until I transfer them to you as acting escrow via the vanity address I requested and will be paying for said services.

Now, if you excuse me, I need to get the fuck on the road to Satoshi Forest.

Not sure why blockchaint tx is showing -0.2 when I sent only .00006BTC.
Even the final balance is -0.2BTC lesser   Cry   It's looking fine in Multibit though.
Just tell me, everything's fine and there's nothing to freak out.

Edit - It sent the 0.2BTC to my other address, not sure why

You're in, so all is fine. Mind if I give you credit for sending a Nicklie? Who wants credit for the first Dimie?

Bitfie

Hello there fellow coinaholics!

I decided to enter this awesome Bitfie giveaway!

I saw no one had chosen my favorite position.... THE SEXTIE-NINIE

https://blockchain.info/tx/670b1469c1e90c553ed8cb9f253e92936d4d974d02a7c64857fc5f25ac35247e

Yet another great, but very weird idea Phinnaeus Tongue

Can't give you credit for coining the word, but will give you credit for sending the first Sextie-ninie.

Would a $.66 or a $.99 be considered a Spoonie Bitfie? Guess won't know till somebody enters such and claims it.

Thanks for playing, all, and to reiterate, none of posts in thins thread, is drawn, will allowing me claim the prize. I have no known or unknown entries in this giveaway, nor will I. Glad you all are enjoying it.

I didn't know I had to coin the word. Can I still make an addition to my post? Sad

You don't have to coin a word. That's optional for those wanting to think outside the box. You can coin a word at anytime as long as there's a transaction considering with it to get credit for first use. Remember, though, only one entry per using name, thus consider using another user account, whereupon you can declare the account if you wish depending in what name you desire the coined word to be under.

Apologies if I made the above to complicated sounding, for I'm press for time needing to get back to Satoshi Forest and call it a night via sleeping on the ground during the below freezing night.

I'm changing the official address to 1B1TF1E6ohQkkbPmRLwnuHUhtxb8Up6Fde of which ONLY Rassah has the private key. I will no longer have access to the funds once I transfer them momentarily.

Will be updating the OP reflecting the above, as well.
