It was a really good idea to start this thread. I am just stumped on this one.

My 2 cents, but I didn't start this, so it's only a suggestion. When someone guesses correctly, they have the authority to dictate that the previous host must either do a giveaway at their convenience, or provide a cutting/seeds/plant of their discretion to the person who won the guessing game.
For example, the member who guessed mine correctly was given the choice. And he chose that I do a giveaway in the future. Had he chosen to accept something of mine, it would be something mutually agreed upon, when that something became available.
Your thoughts?

Nepenthes hemsleyana?

Yes, some people (like me) have nothing to give. I mean, if you want a typical venus flytrap OK but I can't continuously unpot my plants for pullings. And the questions are answered pretty quick, so you would be giving plants away every week or 2.

Just my take on it.

That's why there's the "at your convenience" clause. If it takes a year before you get divisions, fine. If you can't do a giveaway or gift, no worries, it isn't not convenient for you. We really do understand, as this thread is primarily for entertainment. If you can give or get a plant, bonus!!!, but not required.
Personally, I'd love a typical VFT, then I can give divisions to neighbors and teachers when I have them.
My 2 cents.
