Hopefully, this will be another interesting game that can help us all have fun together!

Since many people on steemit have been around the internet for at least a while, a lot of us have seen some of those videos (usually on YouTube) that went viral at one point or another. I won’t bother mentioning any by name, but I am sure that some come to mind when you hear the term “viral video.”

Since @papa-pepper enjoys interacting, having fun, creating, inspiring, community-building, and sharing STEEM and SBD, I thought that I would spearhead a new game. Here’s how it works.

BASIC CONCEPT

Ideally, steemians who are interested would contact me privately either on steemit.chat or discord. They would suggest a certain viral video that they would like to parody. Then they would make their own parody version of the viral video, keeping it unlisted, and send me the link. To help with the guessing part of the game, the same cover image that I use below will be used for the videos from others. This will help with the guessing part of the game, since people will actually have to watch the video.

Once the steemian has made the parody video and given me the link, I’ll prepare a contest post featuring it. I will choose a reward amount from my own wallet to give the winner, and the steemian who made the parody video will receive the liquid payout from the contest post.

I’ll the make the post at a random time and date to help ensure that no users are telling their friends which video they parodied. Once the post is live, the first user to link the original YouTube video from which the parody was made in the comment section of the post will be the winner and be awarded whatever prize I have assigned to that particular contest.

WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THIS PAPA?

I have many reasons why I think that this would be a good idea. First off, it can help two others earn some STEEM or SBD every time a Viral Video Video Game post is made, since the winner will win some and the steemian who made the video will receive the liquid post payout.

Also, it will be some free publicity for the steemian making the parody video. They will be featured in the video and mentioned repeatedly in the post, which should help them gain some attention.

While making parody videos may not be what everyone is comfortable with, it does provide a good opportunity for us all to have some fun together. Also, if people start finding our parody videos instead of the originals, perhaps it will spark an interest in what we are up to at steemit.com. I like to mention steemit.com in the text for all of my videos that I upload to YouTube.

MY EXAMPLE – LET THE GAME BEGIN!

Here is my example video, and the first contest in this series. Watch the video long enough for you to be able to recall the original and then be the first to link the original video in the comment section to win! The prize for this one will be 20 SBD!

Be quick!

Until next time…
