Good Luck to all Contenders


What is the Creativity Contest all about?


In short: It is simply about generating a valuable entry based on the word associated with each round.
The entry/comment with the most upvotes wins.

In depth: The idea is to stimulate and engage steemians in creative work through rewards and competition. My assumption is that larger the reward gets the more challenging it becomes to win which will lead to a greater level of competition therefore higher quality of work being submitted.

The Creativity Contest could possibly:

  • Encourage differentiation
  • Push steemians to avoid complacency
  • Help Forming unexpected partnerships, as the competition allows people to cooperate and work on an entry/comment.
  • Provide a nest for mutual learning, as steemians will have the chance to learn and get inspired by the many ways of approaching self-expression.
  • Lead to highly Imaginative work, as competition gets rougher.

How to enter the contest?


Let's say Mr. Herbert Hoover wants to enter Round #37 and the word associated with it is "Competition"

All he has to do is represent the meaning of the word in an original entry/comment (100% his work and creation)

  • He can write a definition of the word (no plagiarism)
  • He can post a video in which he discusses the meaning of the word
  • Any Art form that could symbolize and represent the word (humor, painting, drawing, music..)
  • He can write a short story
  • He can discuss the origin of the word
  • Discuss its meaning philosophically
  • Literally anything goes as long as it is his original work

Mr. Hoover decided to share what he thinks about "Competition" in a short sentence
and before entering his post he made sure to use this format:

Contest Entry:

I think we've become friends, maybe it's because we see each other almost every day, and we talk for hours. I have come to notice that indifference is composed of thousands of insignificant things that create a shell and become the
foundation of something much bigger than us, something lasting and real.
In a short time a strange called Indifference has become a partner of my life, of all Venezuelan lifes.

In Venezuela we all live with her, one night she murder 9 boys, the protest intensifies. And when the sun rises you notes that nothing matters, everything remains the same. And the world just keeps spinning

Thanks for participating! :)

Contest Entry:

Is it gonna rain today or is it not,
Am I gonna breathe or not,
Who knows what happens,
Who really cares?

What movie to watch,
What food to eat,
What storie to tell,
I care not 'bout it all,

Cuz, I have no purpose,
I have no love
Food tastes like ashes
And dear ones are down.


I know I am all about fun :D

@lindahas so you are a poet also....waah..really impressive

Not really, my rhyming is not the best, but I try :D

Great to see you participating again, you bring great value to the contest.

Good Luck @lindahas !

Thanks :) I just don't like to see a lonely comment section :D

hahaha I hope it won't become a habit.

Contest Winner @lindahas

Congratulations!!

Contest Entry :

Sometimes the silly eyes are seen
The way the moon explodes in the window
Thinking or dreaming?
Reality or imagination?
In this way, beyond childhood,
The way the age is like pulse.
Dream dodge, dream smile, dream tears
Dream birds match the sorrow wings
All the dreams of the elusive
The receipt of non-availability
All the dreams fall asleep or not sleeping
How to calculate the rhythm of love

Thanks for participating! :)

@mehdibca you are wellcome.

#ContestEntry

Indifference

"After a certain age, things don't seem to matter anymore," he sat there and thought. He has spent 50 years of his life in the same neighborhood he was born in. He has seen people come and go and then a lot of people come in and not go. They've crowded his hometown, the ancient brick lanes, the historical nooks and corners. He can't breathe like he could anymore.
The playground he spent his childhood in is a shopping complex now, the well he drew water to drink from has no traces of its existence left, his school made of wood and bricks is a concrete sanatarium now. "But does all of this really matter to me?," he asks himself, "I guess not. Not when I have spent more than half of my life building memories around me."

Indifferece can't bring you any enemies, yet it can't bring you any friends.
