I still haven't come up with a good solution to adapt the prize-pool to work with the 0% SBD print rate, but we'll probably have to deal with that until [HF20](https://steemit.com/steem/@steemitblog/steem-velocity-hardfork-hardfork-20) gets rolled out, possibly even longer! There's a lot to be said about the SBD situation at hand and I'd encourage anyone who's confused by this hick-up in steem-onomics to check out @timcliff's extensive post on the matter - ["SBD Explained"](https://steemit.com/sbd/@timcliff/sbd-explained). Understanding more about the way money works is always a good thing! In the meantime we'll just have to enjoy the accelerated growth of the delegation fund and drain the piggy bank to pay out some small cash prizes. Obviously that's not the greatest solution and after today the piggy bank will be empty, so that leaves us out of options for next week. Running this show with *just* a delegation prize doesn't feel right, so I'll have to come up with something there. I've opened a thread on [Planet Googly](https://discord.gg/ZK4c87x) to discuss the issue with the googly friends and family. Your input is very welcome!

# The Prize Pool: carried over from last week: **0.096 SBD** *ugh* ^{upvote purchases are suspended due to the obvious lack of cash in the pool} and an available delegation-prize of **189.580 SP** *plus* **100% of all rewards** on [last week's winner announcement](https://steemit.com/googlyprize/@googlyeyes/googlyprize-this-week-s-winners-issue-no-54): **0.000 SBD** and **1.932 SP** and **1.931 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 1.5 SBD from the savings fund, @bucipuci sponsored 0.5 SBD after winning with his previous entry, ["Ash"](https://steemit.com/cesky/@bucipuci/i-met-in-the-forest-ash-googlyeyes-potkal-jsem-v-lese-jasan): **That's 2.000 SBD in cash prizes!** ^{3rd - 0.4; 2nd - 0.6; 1st -1.0} ## **193.443 SP** will be delegated to our googly winners! ^{Need more details and numbers about the Prize-Pool?

We had just five entries to chose from today, and as usual, the decision was made by some googly friends and family members who volunteered to pick their personal favourites on [Planet Googly](https://discord.gg/ZK4c87x). _{this week's qualifying posts were submitted by:
@ivimipa, @kristyglas, @bucipuci, @kaerpediem and @isabelpena} _{today's guest judges were:} ^{@dexterdev, @hopehuggs, @kristyglas and @niko3d} ^{disclaimer: guest judges are **not** allowed to vote for their own entries!} *drumroll please...* # 🥁 HERE ARE THE WINNERS: 🥁 ### 🥉 Today's 3rd winner is: 🥉 @bucipuci with ["I met in the woods - salt stump"](https://steemit.com/cesky/@bucipuci/i-met-in-the-woods-salt-stump-googlyeyes-potkal-jsem-v-lese-parez-se-soli) [![I met in the woods - salt stump by @bucipuci](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXCVB5WK8Urgt1Ts8kYH66Y9jLMg6M9dzbTgGUCnVerUJ/image.png)](https://steemit.com/cesky/@bucipuci/i-met-in-the-woods-salt-stump-googlyeyes-potkal-jsem-v-lese-parez-se-soli) *Receiving votes from two guest judges put @bucipuci's salty entry in a tie with our 2nd winner today, but taking into account he's won quite a few issues in a row now, he'll have to be the humble one today ;)* ### 🥈 The 2nd winner is: 🥈 @isabelpena with ["Semillita"](https://steemit.com/googlyeyes/@isabelpena/googlyprize-issue-no-54) [![Semillita by @isabelpena](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbGQK2ScxULW3ErWzkjNJziCx4gYJKFnQMESHYswNT9G6/image.png)](https://steemit.com/googlyeyes/@isabelpena/googlyprize-issue-no-54) *We're coming full circle now, from stump to sprout... this delicious entry by @isabelpena also gained two jury votes today. Congratulations!* # 🥇 And Our Grand Winner is: 🥇 @kaerpediem with ["Sir Hot-A-Lot"](https://steemit.com/googlyeyes/@kaerpediem/googlyeyes-starring-sir-hot-a-lot) [![Sir Hot-A-Lot by @kaerpediem](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQma2oNsFZtqwE3nY3CcjoWUDsaPZbsqxSizpQtbZH4UXyw/image.png)](https://steemit.com/googlyeyes/@kaerpediem/googlyeyes-starring-sir-hot-a-lot) *I'm usually not a great fan of #GooglyEyes with accessories since the theme of the show is bringing objects to life with **just** some wiggly eyes... but this is a show by the community for the community, and the majority of today's jury wanted to see @kaerpediem win. The post is very comedic and well arranged, too, so I don't see any reason to object that anyways. Kudos!!* ### aaaaand _{*another drumroll, please*} ### 🥁 this week's *Googly-Delegation-Winners* are: 🥁 # @kaerpediem, @isabelpena & @bucipuci you'll receive a delegation of 96.721, 58.032 & 38.688SP for a week. _{None of our winners is an excessive self-voter nor filthy rich by themselves already, so all of them qualify for a share of this week's googly delegation (50/30/20). Awesome!}
