๐ #GooglyPrize ๐ This Week's Winners - Issue No. 54 ๐
Welcome to the #GooglyPrize,
awarding googlyness since block 13,337,003!
We've been through a bunch of exciting times together, and an exciting time it is again. The turmoil on the markets, specifically the low value of STEEM, has caused the SBD-debt-ratio to go above 5%, and thus: liquid rewards are no longer paying out any SBD.
This circumstance doesn't play too well with the googly-prize-pool-mechanics, STEEM and SP rewards are contributing to the delegation fund while SBD rewards are paid out as cash prizes. It's nice to have a quickly growing delegation pool, but doing without any cash prizes at all is a bit lame!
Unless the markets see a swift recovery, this is possibly going to be the situation until HF20 (aka "Velocity") gets activated in late September. I might have to make some changes, but for now, let's sit tight and watch the situation. @googlyeyes has a few SBD saved from comment-rewards that will allow us to bridge the gap for today.
qualifying posts for this issue were fabulously submitted by:
@airam05, @mariabarreto, @detlev, @bucipuci, @juanzcorpion, @isabelpena, @kaerpediem and @kalemandra
The Prize Pool:
carried over from last week: 2.834 SBD
2.738 SBD have bought ~4.260 SBD in upvotes, 0.096 SBD remain
and an available delegation-prize of 173.720 SP
plus
100% of all rewards on last week's winner announcement:
0.000 SBD and 4.549 SP and 4.549 STEEM
that makes 0.096 SBD in the cash pool:
40% will be used for next week, 60% will be paid out today!
3rd - 10%; 2nd - 20%; 1st - 30%
The cash-pool is drained, @googlyeyes is paying out 3 SBD from the savings fund:
3rd - 0.5; 2nd - 1.0; 1st -1.5
188.818 SP will be delegated to our googly winners!
The delegation pools have also drifted apart slightly, pool1 holds 195SP while pool2 is at 182SP, to balance the difference I've shifted 6SP over from pool1 to pool2, evening the balance out to 189.580 and 188.818SP respectively.

@kalemandra with
"Zucchini GooglyGoose"
This amazing zucchini growing in @kalemandra's garden was meant to have googlyeyes... Not surprising to see four jury votes for this entry. Kudos!

@bucipuci (again) with
"I met in the forest - ash"
A creative mind and curious eyes, @bucipuci is back with another winning entry. Four jury votes are bringing another grand prize to the #cesky #googlyeyes forest.

aaaaand
another drumroll, please
๐ฅ this week's Googly-Delegation-Winners are: ๐ฅ
@bucipuci & @isabelpena
you'll receive a delegation of 113.290 & 75.527SP for a week.
@kalemandra holds over 6.5kSP behind her vote already and doesn't quite need the measly googly delegation award ;). That leaves the delegation-pool all to our 1st and 3rd winners in a 60/40 split. Congratulations!
