I wouldn't say unreasonably high for 10% for a single man offering that much money. I would even say that it is rather very risky.
Besides, claiming a platform is "a toxic wasteland" puts that platform on par with the ones like 4chan, and that does seem to require 20% toxicity to me, maybe even higher. For it to get more strict like 3-5%, the claim should be lighter, something like "slightly toxic". It is nice of him to empathise and assume that the claims are probably exaggerated, and to set the threshold to something in between.

Lastly, I definitely would enjoy an extra 10K, but I don't really think I can beat that requirement, since I don't think Stack Overflow is even slightly toxic.
- KirinDave 8y agoIt stuns me that you write this, in a public forum, and don't expect people to conclude your entire effort was a self-centering publicity stunt. Your goal is to discredit anyone who suggests your favorite crowdsourcing website has any toxicity at all. So you set absurdly high thresholds and put into place unfair processes to make sure the prize money can't be claimed.
