       Send me a private Mastodon message with a positive integer number, before the end of September 2022 (Irish time). Whoever sends me the smallest number that is unique (i.e. a number no one else sent), picks a charity of their choice and I will pay €10 to that charity (must accept PayPal donations). If you send more than 1 number, only the first one counts. Anything other than a single positive integer number (dates, fractions, equations, cat pictures, URLs) will be ignored.Boosts welcome.

       @xpil Goes to pay charity without further message needed ;-]How do you justify the energy needed for this?  I guess you could categorise it under some "fun?" (slightly tongue in cheek but really what gives?)

       P. S. I'm going to publish the winning number and the total number of valid entries. I'm *not* going to publish the winning account details or the name of the charity they pick without their consent.

       @xpil Ok that's great for privacy but my question please is why so many have to send a private msg and including yourself spend time for such a thing...?

       @freeschool it's for fun and for my own curiosity. It's an old idea, I first saw this game organized by one of major Polish radio stations back when the Internet was still a domain of US military. Entries were submitted by old good postal service back then.

       @freeschool nobody has to do anything. Participation isn't mandatory :)

       Another, similar version of this game exists, where the winner is the one who sends the number that is the closest to median of all entries (in case there are multiple entries matching the condition, the winner is whoever sent their number first). I may run this one at some point if I get bored with my life :)
