I feel it is necessary to address a strategy that is being used for Find The Ingot game. As a close community I believe we are capable of collectivly discussing this and ultimately find a way to resolve it. 

I recently heard about a bot that is available through discord called Ginabot. Ginabot has many different settings of all which revolve around notifications. For example, I can set it to notify me on discord that someone left a comment on my post or transferred steem to my wallet. You can also input Steemit usernames and select to be notified when they post. I assumed this is being used for 'Find The Ingot' game. 

My question to the community/participants. How do we handle this moving forward? A few questions I asked myself. Just speaking outloud here. Since it is available to everyone. Should everyone use Ginabot? **OR** Is it an unfair advantage? Is there a way to post where Ginabot can not notify the user? 

Ultimately, Is Ginabot taking away from the thrill of the game? We have been going at it for a little while now. Some of the participants recall the early games where they went on for a while due to all the back and forth. 

Everyone should know the upvotes I have recieved from the community. They have all been given back to the community in prizes. I have taken out of my pocket as well to fund prizes. ** From the begining, my intentions here were to give back and support the #ssg-community.**

Lets have an open discussion in the comment section of this post. I look forward to hearing everyone's HONEST opinion. I will post a follow up article in 24hrs to recap. 

This game is intended to be FUN and COMPETITIVE! Give yourself a break through out the day and **FIND THE INGOT.**
