WHO’S HAPPY ABOUT THOSE BONUS POINTS? – WELL YOU ARE ABOUT TO BE!
Finally, I share the big secret with you.
With three ways to win Bonus Points in my Daily Steemit Selfie Contest you guys should really be excited to find this out!
For those of you who don't already know, @papa-pepper is running an elimination contest right now. Unfortunately, unless you are already playing, you can't participate this season. However, for all of those who want to get in or have already been eliminated this time, there will be a second season once this one is done.
Each season will be run in a similar way, and the grand prize and the bonus prize will be similar in each season.
THE PRIZE POOL
The main goal for players in the Daily Steemit Selfie Challenge is to outlast all other players in order to be the last remaining contestant. Each day a prize pool of SBDs is growing, and 75% of that prize pool will go to whoever outlasts the rest, or is eliminated last. If the last remaining players are eliminated during the same round, they will split it.
The remaining 25% of the Prize Pool will be awarded to whoever gets disqualified last, which will allow the other player to win. This also may need to be split. The current Prize Pool is up to 175 SBD, and it is growing every day!
THE BONUS POINTS - 3 WAYS TO WIN
During each round of the contest, I hand out bonus points. Each bonus point will be paid out at 1 SBD each. There are three ways to win bonus points.
The first way to win a Bonus Point is the "QUICK DRAW." Whoever replies with a qualifying selfie the quickest earns one Bonus Point. I intentionally do not mention the "theme" in the post titles, so that people have to scroll down to see what they need to make a qualifying selfie.
Each day the qualifying requirements change. It could be that they need a plant, some fire, or even a knife in their selfie in order to qualify.
The second way is my Daily Bonus Points. To begin with, I am handing out at least two Bonus Points each day, but as the contest progresses and players are eliminated, that quantity may be reduced. When a selfie sticks out form the rest and I feel it is "worthy," I give it one of my Daily Bonus Points.
The third way for players to win Bonus Points is the "Bonus" Bonus Point, which is a secret each day. Ahead of time, I pick something that I will be looking for in the photos. If the players happen to include the secret item or thing, they are rewarded with a Bonus Bonus Point.
It could be my perfect selfie smile, an animal, a pepper, or even the word "pepper." They never know what I will be looking for.

A LIMITED EDITION STEEM "COMMUNITY" SILVER ROUND! - TALK ABOUT A BONUS!
Here is the moment that I have been waiting for. My goal was to have these in hand prior to letting you know, but I want to give one away in Season 1 and Season 2 of the Daily Steemit Selfie Challenge.
Long story short, whoever ends up with the most Bonus Points at the end of the season wins a 1 oz STEEM Silver Round! Yup, all those Bonus Point SBDs plus some historical steemit Silver!
Interestingly enough, players don't even have to win the actual contest in order to win the Bonus!
WHY PAPA?
I wanted to create a few more layers to the contest. The main purpose of the contest is to encourage creative, fun, community interaction on a daily basis and give any user who wants to the opportunity to potentially win hundreds of SBDs. With only a few winners though, it can be a lot of effort for everyone else to come up empty handed.
By adding the Bonus Points in the first place, this gave everyone the opportunity to at least make a few bucks playing and not go home empty handed. After a suggestion on the "QUICK DRAW," the Bonus Points gained another layer. Then, I created the Bonus Bonus Point with the secret item to have even more fun.
Remember, the main prize will "only" be 75% of the Prize Pool, and the Silver Round will be awarded as a bonus prize. It is also worth mentioning that Bonus Point SBDs are not included in the total Prize Pool. They are paid out separately.
While attempting to outlast the competition in order to just win the contest can be enough fun, trying to be the quickest and most creative to earn as many Bonus Points as possible so that they can try to win one of these STEEM "COMMUNITY" Silver Rounds may make it even more fun. Only 1500 of these were ever minted and no more will ever be made. I got some extra to try to get them into as many hands as I could, and these Bonus Points is one way that I have chosen to do it.
For those of you currently playing, be safe, have fun, and do your best to get your own piece of steemit history. For the rest of you, feel free to watch our fun this season and join in next time! Papa out!

Very cool contest papa pepper you managed to make it quite complex but easy to understand, I will definitely try to get in on the next round of the game! I've got one of those beauties on the way to me I can't wait it's taking forever to the UK! :-)
Hopefully soon it will be in your hand. The contest is a bit complex, but still easy to understand. Glad that I can share it in an understandable way! Thanks!
Its quite interesting. When does the next contest start. The next season you talking of
Once this one finishes, and that depends on the players.
alright. I will just have to be vigilant & up-to-date then.
That is SUUHHHWEEEET!!! @ papa-pepper. Thanks brother.
Not like I needed a reason to be chasing @bluelightbandit , but NOW....gotta step it up.
LOL
that is awesome would love to win this. I won't lie I am gonna do my best to win it. LOL though if I don't I won't be too sad, as I was able to score one and it will be shipped out tomorrow. I can't wait to take a selfie with it once it arrives, hopefully next week I will be able to do that selfie with it.
Wow, how did you win one of those?
Lol @leggy23 you read what he just posted ;)
I didn't win one I found someone that had a few for sale and was able to buy one off of him, I bought number 113 off of him. If you search Steemit coins you might find another for sale but you will have to act quick because they are hard to find and get.
Thanks tecnosgirl, will look around for atleast 1.
Check @sevinwilson, @raybrockman, @thedamus or others. I hear that they may have a few extra! wink!
you guys are awesome.
Cool! I should be picking up 101-110 tomorrow!
I had my choice between 112 and 113 and choose 113 as the number 13 is a lucky number is 13. It is a long story going back generations. But when I saw I could have one ending in the number 13 I had to go with it. lol
Nice! Glad to hear that you've got one coming anyway!
I tried to get one when they were released but I was about 20 minutes to late to get one. So I am Super excited to get one.
Man, I wish you would bottle up some of that coolness and send it to alabama. Hey when you get a second hit me up in chat
LOL- Thanks man! Cool compliment!
Good luck to the participants in this contest. I am excited, I will participate in the next contest.
i will always support you @papa-pepper
Awesome awesome awesome..Time to start setting my alarm early bells to try grab that quick draw. Can't wait to see if my nostrodamus moment was correct for todays challenge. Cheer$;)

Very cool, a whole other level to the bonus points! I'll have to stay on track better for the next round.
