01
The Game
SnapStakes is a group challenge game. Friends compete in daily photo and video challenges that get harder each day. Complete the challenge, submit your proof, and your friends vote on whether you met the criteria. Last one standing wins, and gets to dare all the losers!
EXAMPLE
Five friends start a game. Every day, they complete challenges like "Take a selfie with a stranger in uniform" or "Get three people to do the same pose with you." Miss the deadline or fail the vote? You're out. Last one standing becomes the champion and picks a dare for everyone else.
02
Skill, Not Chance
Every SnapStakes challenge is a test of effort, creativity, and social confidence. Challenges range from taking creative selfies to convincing strangers to participate in your photo. There are no dice, no cards, no random number generators, and no prediction-based mechanics. Your success depends entirely on your ability to complete the challenge.
Challenges are designed to be achievable but require real effort:
- Creative photography challenges
- Social challenges involving other people
- Physical challenges requiring effort or endurance
- Location-based challenges
IMPORTANT
SnapStakes is a skill-based competition, not gambling. There's no chance element. You win by completing challenges better than your friends.
03
How Voting Works
When you submit your proof, all players in the game vote: "Does this submission meet the criteria? Yes or No."
The voting system is designed for fairness:
- Blind voting: You can't see how others voted until you submit your own vote
- Anonymous results: Results show aggregate counts only, never names
- 75% supermajority: Elimination requires near-unanimous agreement that a submission didn't meet the stated criteria
- One vote can save you: A single honest "Yes" vote from any player can prevent elimination
KEY POINT
The 75% threshold means you're only eliminated when almost everyone agrees your submission didn't meet the published criteria. This high bar protects against unfair eliminations and ensures the competition remains skill-based.
04
Fair Play
All players agree to vote honestly based on the published criteria when they join SnapStakes. We take fair play seriously:
- Disinterested voters: Eliminated players continue to vote in all future rounds, helping ensure fairness.
- Published criteria: Every challenge has clear, objective criteria that both submitters and voters can see.
- Pattern monitoring: We monitor voting patterns and investigate reports of coordinated or malicious voting.
- Appeal process: If you believe you were unfairly eliminated, you can appeal within 48 hours.

The Winner's Dare
When you win a game, you earn the ultimate bragging rights: you get to pick a dare that all the losers have to complete. Choose wisely: it's your moment of glory!
THE PAYOFF
Survive the challenges, outlast your friends, and make them all do something embarrassing. That's SnapStakes.
