๐โ๏ธ Marvelous Tales Contest #15 - Announcing winners and the next contest ๐โ๏ธ
The Marvelous Tales Contest
In honor of all the creativity here on Steemit, I'm hosting the Marvelous Tales Contest.
The idea is simple: I give you two words, and you build your tale around these two words. You could write a story, make a comic or video, use a drawing or photo to accompany your tale, or even write a song. You can submit your entry by creating a post dedicated to this contest.
I will be picking the winner based on originality, creativity and entertainment value. Subjected, ofcourse, to my personal opinion, but I try to be as fair as I can!
Last week's results:
This week's pickings come from our guest judge @datboithe1. Thank you very much for judging the contest!
Third place
@irastra's entry won 0.306 SBD
Second place
@the-housewife's entry won 0.510 SBD
First place
@aedroberts's entry won 0.918 SBD
Congrats to the winners!

This week's words:
The words you need to spin your tale around this week are:
- Witness
- Decentralized
@geke mentions: " I'm not necessarily hoping for stories about the blockchain, since the word witness is much more open-ended. But I am hoping for stories about decentralized, self-regulating systems.".

Tuesday 26th of september, at 11:00 AM CET (Central European Time, UTC+1).
Closing notes:
- I reserve the rights to disqualify any entry I deem inappropriate.

I'm so excited to read these stories! Thank you for this Marvelous Tales contest @playfulfoodie! Always enjoy them. ๐
Can't wait to see what people come up with! Thank you very much for being our guest judge this week :D
It looks like a fun contest especially because you can reply with video, art, music or the written word!
Aww thanks! I'm glad you like the idea :-)
People come up with the most amazing stories for this contest, I'm always really impressed. It's awesome to read them all!
I just wish I could get some high upvoters interested in supporting it (thank you very much for the support by the way!). I can't really pay the price money myself in these uncertain times for me (Steemit is like my part-time job for now), so it's based on payout of the post. It varies a lot each week, but I haven't really figured out how to 'catch that whale' yet ;-)
Anyway, it's all good! Plenty of people run contests here, so I understand they can't all be supported! I think most contestants join in for the inspiration, practice and fun either way. We have some very consistant contestants! And the best thing is, a couple of them get visits from Curie each week too! No price money can beat that, right :D
/too much info
I believe I'm not too late! Here's my entry.
Best of luck to everyone! :D
Not too late indeed! Thank you very much for your entry :D

Thank you very much for your entry!
You are welcome and Marvelous Tales contest, too.
Ill pass this weeks contest playful, I'm at my limit right now....see yah later again in the next round
Aww that's a shame! Hope to see you compete again in the next one :-)
Having won this contest the last two out of three weeks, I want to encourage everyone reading this post to enter. This week will especially challenge me as I have grown quite fond of the previous flow of the element.
The ripple effect has served as a basis for communication and people wanting how to improve their writings. Please let the journey be the joy.
Thank you @playfulfoodie. There are many contests on Steemit, but the emphasis on child-friendly content for yours is endearing.
Thank you so much for this amazing comment @aedroberts! I'm happy to have you as one of the contenders and always enjoy reading your stories :-)
Thanks to you @playfulfoodie for running this contest. I enjoy it each time. And thanks to @datboithe1 for awarding my story with a third place.
Thank you for participating in the contest! :D
Awesome, @geke will make a wonderful guest judge.
Thanks Sir Muxxy!
Definitely! I'm so happy she's our judge this week :D
how do you make a story about decntralization? whose idea are those words.
Normally, I come up with the words. However, this week's words were provided by our guest judge. She has written a little explanation to go with the words and I feel it's very do-able to come up with something here.
And hey, if this week's words are hard, all the more reason to try and join, because there might be a bit less competition, right? :D
@geke chose taht? she really wants to hurt the contestants...LOL
Nothing wrong with a little challenge :D
Thank you I am following you, I hope you will also follow up vote me this honor to me <3 <3
