**Category:** Digg **Scope:** #WenDIGG Meme Contest **Objectives:** • The Operations Team narrowed down the candidate list to a Top 16; this proposal aims to ratify these Top 16 entries to be placed into Snapshot. • If this BIP received majority support \> 40 votes “For”, we will place the ballot into Snapshot, and the Community will decide the ranking of the Top 16 entries. • Most voted entry will be declared the winner and remaining 2nd-10th will garner the consolation prices. **Status:** Accepted **Overview:** _This BIP is an amendment of BIP 29. We have made the list longer which now includes Top 16._ As many of you know, several projects have been built around memes alone, and while we are not trying to do that here, we do want to provide as many opportunities as possible for community participation. We can also leverage this to get some organic marketing for BadgerDAO. The competition commenced last [Jan. 15, 2021](http://forum.badger.finance/t/announcing-the-badger-wendigg-meme-contest/1896) and all entries must be submitted before 6pm CST, Jan. 24, 2021. Prize structure: 🥇 1st Price: 75 $BADGER token 🥈 2nd Price: 50 $BADGER token 🥉 3rd Price: 25 $BADGER token 🏅 4th-5th Price: 15 $BADGER token 🎖 6th-10th Price: 5 $BADGER token **Details:** Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join in the fun! To participate, simply tweet your submission using the hashtags #WenDIGG and tag [**@BadgerDAO**](https://twitter.com/BadgerDAO). To qualify for this competition, a memer must have a Twitter account created more than 10 days prior to the competition announcement. He/she must also have at least 10 followers and 10 tweets in the past year to be eligible. Any media format is acceptable; could be an image, video, GIF, etc. Multiple submissions are allowed but only one prize will be awarded per contestant. There were 287 meme images, videos, GIFs, etc. entries when the submission was officially closed. The committee for this competition narrowed down the candidate list to Top 16 **in no particular order** : 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. ![15](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/badgerdao/original/1X/7b2331b6cb55bdccbfc658112bef332e48329379.gif) FOR VIDEO SUBMISSIONS, CLICK THE ATTACHED LINK AND TAKE YOUR TIME TO FINISH WATCHING THE CLIP BEFORE CASTING YOUR VOTES: 1.

I honestly think the list got worse lol. Shouldn’t this be all about free marketing and getting the public and casual crypto buyer to hear about badger? I do not understand why this isn’t all being done via twitter to build more hype and bring in new community members. Really feel like its a big missed opportunity tbh. ---

Voted Against The BIP 34 is nothing greater than BIP 29. You just added 6 new videos. It should’ve been added more like at least 30 for fairer competition. Because we have 287 participants out there or you should’ve categorised like BIP 32 idea. ---

> [@Kris2f](#): > > FOR VIDEO SUBMISSIONS, CLICK THE ATTACHED LINK AND TAKE YOUR TIME TO FINISH WATCHING THE CLIP BEFORE CASTING YOUR VOTES: If you went through watching the videos, you will see that it is still the same original Top 10. We just added the next 6 rankings to complete Top 16 for this BIP. Converted submissions as GIFs on forum are now being uploaded to their original files attached as links. Please refer to this thread: > [@BIP 29: Meme Competition for #WenDIGG](http://forum.badger.finance/t/bip-29-meme-competition-for-wendigg/2496/28): > > We never saw it coming that the forum can only accept GIFs and images uploads. If we had known there will be a technical issue right from the start, we would have limited it to GIFs and images since this a meme contest anyway. Also, there’s a max limit per upload and that is 4mb. Totally agree with this. Although, we are pushing this contest to be as decentralized as possible in the essence of true DAO. Rather letting the core team picking their winners and presenting it to the community just… ---

We could host the memes on Twitter and hype it up and let all the public vote on Twitter even. We can give all 287 memes unique names and have official community vote here. Vote here can be done on names only to avoid the forums format limitations. ---

Now we are seeing people cheerleading their own memes for a prize. Twitter contests can be manipulated, as well as voting procedures (even in this forum). I don’t think that’s the best way forward. I propose we take the original list (10 entires, 10 prizes, etc), RNG it, declare winners per the original contest intent, and move on to better things. Otherwise those that are incented to win will not stop until they “win”. ---

I think the decision of the judges is quite reasonable. They gave a chance to six more participants. ---

Why should someone who spent 5 minutes on work and 3 days receive the same prize? I think the team made the right decision. ---

I voted against from BIP 29 and again here. But let me tell why. There are some great memes and videos here, but others that are against what Badger should stand for (and my own values). For example, a meme showing a person threatening someone with a gun should NOT represent Badger in any form (even for a contest) so I wonder why this got considered for the top 10. Or the meme with other coin logos showing high % gains and the Badger just looking at them. But whatever, the rules were the rules, this was moved to snapshot and I voted there for one that I actually think was good.
