@calumam is hosting a mischievous experiment this week. 😁 He wants to cut off engagement to a minimum on #pob-wotw posts. 'Word of the Week' is an initiative that brings a lot of value in terms of content & activity on https://www.proofofbrain.io/.

Bizarre Guidelines: https://www.proofofbrain.io/hive-150329/@calumam/pob-word-of-the-week-bizarre-006. 🤔

There are several ways to get disqualified. At the same time, there are strange ways to bypass all of this if you are smart enough. Just read between the lines and you will solve the puzzle.

Disclaimer: This blog is not an 'entry' to the contest.

How To Get Disqualified

If you comment on any #pob-wotw post this week, you are automatically disqualified.

If you reply to someone who is taking part or will take part in the contest, you are disqualified.

Best Strategies You Can Follow

There are obvious ways to hack this contest and use the loopholes to engage without getting disqualified. @calumam wants an easy way out - he wants to test his merit system in peace without caring about engagement on them. If I were you, I would have made it so hard for him to judge the entries. Why? Because it's fun. 😈

  • Don't comment on anything, for a week, that has a tag #pob-wotw associated with it. That's a sure-shot way to qualify your entry.

  • One can reply to the comments they got on their entries after 7 days have passed! You are allowed to upvote comments and once the contest is over, you can reply to everyone.

  • You can post the link of your entry to @calumam's post since you can comment there. It's allowed. Everyone else who wants to express their views on your posts can reply to your comment. Break his comment section. 😂

What I Am Doing

I am running an odd experiment of my own:

  • I am not taking part in the contest this week. So anyone who replies to me won't get disqualified. And I am not playing any games here. Wouldn't want to screw my reputation by lying.

  • I have decided to comment on the #pob-wotw posts to see if anyone comments back for any goddamn reason. Maybe by mistake. 😂

  • I want to see if people would do enough to engage without caring much about qualification. Not going to judge you if you do. ✌

  • I am also interested to know whether this time we will see more entries to the contest as compared to previous weeks. Because, engagement would be dead on so maybe people would decide to take part instead.

Not sure who's going to read this since we are nearing the end of the week. Very few people would take the pain of doing this much to engage. If you are someone who is going to, you are as weird as the rules.

What Are You Going To Do?
