Wow! Already thirty weeks into this little project of mine, and it's still going strong. A big bonus is that I'm still having a lot of fun. So just for kicks to celebrate week thirty I'll throw in some extra prizes today and for next week's drawing! What I'm going to do is add an extra prize of 5 DUO tokens and an extra prize of 5 HSBI. So this week there will be three prizes of of 5 HSBI each, a prize of five DUO tokens, a prize of two DUO tokens, and the legendary Splinterlands card the Void Dragon or one HSBI unit, winners choice. How does that sound for fun?
This is how it will go, the usual four spins with their normal prizes. Then two bonus spins, first bonus spin wins 5 HSBI and the second bonus spin wins 5 DUO tokens!
Before we get to this week's giveaway results lets look at some of the entry answers I received for this last week! Who is your favorite superhero? was the question of the week.
Harley Quinn
sublimate-ozsr.blogspot.com
Ok, I have to admit this was my favorite answer of the bunch. Margot Robbie just makes one very sexy Harley Quinn! Although technically she's more of an villain; in Suicide Squad she really is one of the good guys. She has the blend very hot and very crazy all in one! Great pick by @whywhy !
Spiderman
themoviedb.org
The friendly neighborhood Spiderman was picked by two of todays contestants @servelle and @kungfukid . Spiderman has always been my son's favorite as well. They have made so many Spiderman movies as of late I can't count them all, but they're all really good. Great pick!
Batman
onezero.medium.com
Ok, on Batman I went with my favorite one, Michael Keaton. I know everyone has their favorite but he brought Batman to life on the big screen for the first time along with Tim Burton. Batman is a great character from the comic books, the TV shows, and the movies (except the one with the nipple suit.) Great pick by @ronnie10 and @silvertop !
Superman
fortressofsolitude.co.za
He has always been of my favorites as well since I saw the first Superman movie starring Christopher Reeve and Gene Hackman. Just an interesting tidbit on Reeve, he put on over twenty pounds of muscle just to play the part. Talk about dedication and a lot of time in the gym! I thought Henry Cavill fit the part well too, but they had lousy writers and direction. Oh well... This was a pick by @logen9f and @henruc ! Great pick!
The Flash
hdwallpaper.nu
Next up was the Flash picked by @cositav ! Another fine choice of a superhero! It was too bad the last movie wasn't quite up to expectations, I'm hoping the next time around they will do better. DC has had trouble with their movies for years now, but with James Gunn at the helm I'm sure that will all change!
El Chapulín Colorado
thetvdb.com
This is one a I know a little about, for all the years I lived in Spanish speaking countries I never watched all that much TV. I usually had more interesting activities planned, of course every now and again I had to watch a telenovela with the girlfriend. And now I'm hooked on watching them... Thanks a lot Jackie! They are fun to watch....
But I digress, back to "El Chapulín Colorado" which translates too "The Red Grasshopper". He was a pick by @yusmelys , and I love these kinds of picks because I get to learn something new. The show would poke fun at superheroes with the Chapulín not really having any powers yet is a superhero. It's a show that really shares a lot about Latin American culture and they're funny to watch. Thank you @yusmelys for a great pick!
Goku
fanpop.com
This was a pick by @olaf.gui , picking a hero from the Dragon Ball series. It is derived from manga and has had several different shows over the years. He is the main hero in the series and has incredible kung fu skills and special powers. He first appeared in 1984 and I believe they still make Dragon Ball series still from time to time with Goku as the main protagonist. Great pick @olaf.gui !
Well, onto to today's contest, this one should be a lot of fun to hear all of your answers! I just can't resist, because it was superheroes last week, let's do the opposite this week: Who is your favorite supervillain?
The Giveaway
I will be giving out two prizes of five (5) HSBI. Third prize will be 2 DUO tokens, the token I recently launched with @bulliontools and @bitcoinman . It offers those who stake sufficient tokens daily curation on quality posts, dividends, and a tipping bot. It also helps to onboard and retain new Hive members. At the end of the post there is a link to the white paper and where to purchase the tokens. There will also be one legendary Splinterlands card as a fourth prize. If you don't play Splinterlands just let me know and I'll send you an HSBI instead. To participate you need a reputation level of at least 25 and bots cannot win. And please one entry per person to make it fair to everyone.
If you have more questions about DUO feel free to ask, it's growth is exceeding all of our expectations!
Legendary Splinterlands card up for grabs this next week:
A level 1 Void Dragon, this one is a great card!

How to Enter
Every week this will change. I'm looking for engagement rather than just saying "I am in". There is no need to upvote or re-blog, although if you choose to do so I would appreciate it. This week's question is an easy one:
Who is your favorite supervillain?
HSBI
If you are unfamiliar with the prize you can learn more here:
Or check out my recent post:

Choosing the Winners
All valid entries will be placed on the Wheel of Names and I will spin it four times. The first prize will be 5 HSBI units. The second prize will be another 5 HSBI units. And the third prize will be two DUO tokens. Fourth prize is a legendary Splinterlands card or one HSBI unit! And since I am spinning the same wheel four times in a row it is theoretically possible for the same person to win all four prizes! Although I have yet to see it happen, maybe this week?
Deadline
Please note I am changing it to earlier on Sunday to make it easier on me if I'm headed out for the day
One week from today which will be Sunday October 13, 2024 at 8 A.M. California Pacific Time.
