RE: Almost 3000 followers and how steemit (and the IFC) has helped change my life.
Congratulations on the followers, and i don't think when talking about how fun something is that it ever becomes redundant. Those two get off your asses and into the real world rounds were pretty fun, and a lot of people played, and got out to explore a little bit. Even I did for the digital scavenger hunt.
I have seen a few other games, long term games, cropping up, they say imitation is the best form of flattery, I think you hit on a good idea/concept with IFC, and it is nice seeing others try to emulate it. We, (steemit), are a good group of people I think.
Thanks bashadow! And heh. Good to know! I was a bit all over the place but that tends to happen with stream of thought kind of stuff and that's how I like to write, as it comes to me naturally.
And yeah! Those two quests were really neat. :) I'm exciting about the future possibilities and how we can further work the real physical world into the ethereal internet one or vice versa. I'm sure you get what I mean.
And yeah I agree with your sentiments at the end there! Whether they copied it or not, they came up with similar ideas one way or the other whether it was spontaneous or otherwise and I think that's a good sign that other people are thinking similar things! :) Also.. Yeah.. In general the people of steemit seem to be of a more benevolent nature in general, but like most if not all groups, there are those who have other motivations in mind. But.. I think it's better these days to focus more on building the new than trying to fight the old or other ways.. I think if you bring more people to your idea, that's better than trying to take away from others or to fight it too much. There's a word I learned not too long ago called I think.. "Bricolage".. Which means to sort of.. Create something new with what's already there.. And I like that word! I wanna try to create something new. :) And I feel like many others on steemit and in the IFC do too! And that's awesome.
