7-Day Favourite "This and That" Challenge: Day 1 - My Favourite Website
Hello, hello, hello....
I hope everybody's doing fine! I have taken part in just ONE 7-Day challenge, the 7-Day Wayback Music Challenge orchestrated by @dimitrisp, and I can truly say that I fully enjoyed the experience.
I actually enjoyed it so much, that I kept thinking for the past few days if I could come up with a fancy idea for a challenge as well. And I think I did....
Due to the fact that music has been the theme of many, many challenges (from what I've seen at least) I thought of excluding it. Same goes for food and traveling; they are already wildly popular on Steemit.
So, don't expect to see favourite bands, music genres, foods, traveling destinations, countries blah blah in this challenge. Instead, I picked other awesome things that you may want to write about.
Here Are Your Choices
You can pick any of the following "themes" each day and explain to us in a few words why it is your favourite.
Decade: It can be one you already lived and experienced, or one that you've read about or seen in photos/movies and you would have loved to be there and live your "dream."
Game: It can be a video game, a board game, a mind game, a sport, a hobby, you name it.
Website: Which one and why.
Movie Character: Make no mistake; it has to be a movie character not the actor/actress who portrays him/her.
TV Series: All time favourite that would be and you can pick ONLY one.
Public Figure: It can be a celebrity, an actor, a singer, a politician, a historical figure, someone that has influenced you deeply and you admire. Just don't say your mom. It has to be someone "famous" or of global interest.
Monument: Maybe you visited it or you want to visit it. Or you've read tons of stories about it. One way or another, just name one ;)
The Rules
- Choose one of the themes each day and explain us why it's your favourite.
- Post a picture of it. It can include you if you like ;)
- Do this for 7 days in a row if you accept the challenge.
- Nominate up to three people each day.
- Tag it with #favouritethisandthat and include the themes that one can pick from.
- I keep this one from the previous challenge, so please follow @greek-trail for great content made by my fellow Greek steemians ;)
My Favourite Website
I start with my favourite website today even though you can start with whichever theme you prefer. I am between two; to be more specific, I am between the two "Holy Bibles" for every geek out there, gizmodo.com and arstechnica.com.
To make it more personal, I have to mention here that my work has been featured in both titans (click here for my Gizmodo article and click here for my Ars Technica article).
However, I will go with Ars Technica simply because they paid me SO WELL that in reality they bought me my vacations in New York he he. Nah!!!! Seriously, I pick Ars Technica simply because these guys are the VERY BEST when it comes to science, tech and gaming culture.
I have never seen SO MANY academics and scientists working for one website. Hell, some of them are professors in Harvard, Stanford, Princeton (the editor of my article for example) and Penn among many other prestigious Universities and work for the website regularly.
Plus their Facebook Page has one of the best background photos ever!!!!
Last but not least, since this is the launch of my challenge I will nominate some of my favourite steemians ;)

Thank you for the nomination @tkappa!!!😊😊
I am not a talented writer like you, ( actually I am not good at all!..), but I accept your challenge!!
You are always creative!
That's why I love you!!! If all were as kind, honest and open as you, this would be a better world. I don't know how and why, but I liked you and @rouketas from the very first moment I saw you. Alina can verify this. Real recognises real I guess.
I will be deeply offended if I am not invited in your wedding but we will discuss this in person when we meet to pig out 😂😜
And like a deus x machina & since you have summoned me with the mention...
Ασε τις μαλ****ς ! Ειμαι μικρος ακομα, ουτε μαλλια δεν εχω βγαλει ! Τι γαμους και σουσου!? 🤣🚼🔪💣🚬
😂😂😂 ΕΓΡΑΨΕΣ!!!! @loveisintheair να τον προσεχεις τούτον. Πολύ καψούρης λέμε και ας το παίζει ανετος. Ξερω εγω απο τετοια 😛
What a cool challenge @tkappa!! I'll be waiting to be nominated!! :))
I will nominate you tomorrow @eliakon. I promise ;)
Oh thanks!! :))
Smart challenge. Open ended. More room for ingenuity, creativity and variety. Not just checking-off boxes!
(No offensive to other people’s challenges)
Should i nominate you tomorrow? Wanna take part?
You should do what your heart tells you — after having consulted with your mind ;p
To answer your question directly: sure!
LOL, alright ;)
Very interesting challenge. I'm gonna take this one on. It's quite refreshing that you are coming up with something different. Yes, we have seen a lot of Travel, food, music challenges. They are ok, of course, but a breath of fresh air such as this is what I can participate on. Sorry If I missed. What's the price to be won?
Not a contest dear, so there's no price. It's a fun challenge
thanks for the nomination!i really appreciated! i have some favorites but i'm not so good in words to present them so well.
Wow and I considered you the safest bet from all 5! Oh well!
I accept this challenge with my entry coming soon
Can't wait to see what you got ;)
I've done two for your info, 5 days to go.
Just saw it and voted bro :)
