A Trophy Created Just for @ecoinstant - A Golden Gotcha!!!!

in #award7 years ago

Here is the story of why I created a special trophy for @ecoinstant:
The Freestyle Ukiah Challenge is a new poetry contest I started on Steemit recently. The rules for the challenge were simple:
Your Ukiah must follow the prompts for this challenge.
Create a post using the tag #ukiahhaiku and link your post here.
Deadline will be next Thursday at midnight EST.

Now, in the description/explanation portion of the contest for weeks 1 and 2 this sentence was included:

I want to see if the community is open to breaking the rules a bit in their quest to express themselves.

@ecoinstant took full advantage of that sentence in week 2 where he posted his Ukiah and pulled a GOTCHA! on me:
.... I do like breaking the rules, and it is my intention to break your rule about making a post! Thus, here is my entry:
Colored creatures living close by
eating and singing,
hiding under leaves to stay dry.

He posted his Ukiah right to the comments instead of making a post! Well played, @ecoinstant, well played. Turning my own rule around on me was masterful. I was embarrassed and impressed. That deserves special mention. So I have created this small token of my appreciation for your literal innovation.

At post payout for this post I will remove this image from my imgur page and the trophy will become the sole property of @ecoinstant to use as he sees fit.

F.Y.I. - The offending line has been removed from the Ukiah Challenge Posts so that this cannot happen again. Great job catching me out there!!
