The Steemit Name Challenge - @okkiedot (English only) (5 SBD prize inside!)
Posting photographs accompanied by some short wit, a corny joke, or some nonsense gibberish isn't enough these days, huh?
Now you want to know why I chose my username. And even my real name!
And I have to write more than a paragraph! Ah, the heck with it!
(Ok, this little rant is over :P)
The Steemit Name Challenge
It's all your fault! (:P)
The rules of the #steemitnamechallenge:
1. Tell us in a post how you chose the current Steemit username you have. The story behind it.
2. Tell us your real name!
3. If you could change your current username, which name would you choose and why? If you have a possible usernames list, mention it!
4. Use the tag #steemitnamechallenge so that the creator of the challenge can track all the posts and check them out.
5. Nominate 5 people for this challenge.
okkiedot is actually Okki E Dot
Okki is a nickname of mine, I think there are more people who know me by this name than by my real given name. My surname starts with an E.
Now do the math :P
What kind of nickname is that? And what's his real name then?
Remember the last part of the title of this post?
The one mentioning the 5 SBD prize?
Let's play a round of Rumpelstiltskin. You tell me my real name with the right spelling and you win. One try per person, first one to get it right wins the prize! Btw, I went past 1,000 followers a couple of days ago, so I'd like to thank you all a lot and I hope I can keep you entertained. Here's something back :) The winner will be announced after payout.
Well, no.3. Would I change my username?
No, why would I want to do that? It's created from my nickname, it has a personal background. Not random at all.
There's only one thing left to do.
Select five poor souls for sacrifice.
I hereby nominate:
@fyrstikken - probably too busy, but he has humor, maybe he makes something fun from this
@papa-pepper - you gotta aim high
@daveks - a post without a sunset ;-)
@keepdoodling - come back!
@alienbutt - C'mon, I got to know this!
Please don't hate me!
Yours, @okkiedot
Wait, let me put on that mask first.
Good kitten.
Hahaha... awesome. I'm proud of myself for dragging you into this!
So you are Oktawiusz then... that's kinda special indeed!?
P.S.: here the confetti celebrating 1000 followers with you
Unfortunately Oktawiusz is not the right answer. You got 2 letters wrong.
ah dang... well... at least I know now :D
Too bad there were only two tries. It wasn't that hard to earn 5 SBD.
engagement is hard to find on steemit :P
Well, to give others the chance to participate and win, I won't comment on the answers. I'm going to solve the riddle at payout time.
Btw, at first I was not very amused by this obligation. It took a while to create it, but in the end I must admit it was fun.
Uh oh, what's that strange colored stuff? Is that snow? Not again^^
Yeah... i hate those chainmail things... bloody peer pressure :P
But that was a worthy read and, i dunno, it's actually kind of nice to know where your name comes from! I'm happy you stepped out of the comfort zone of photography with bilingual flavor-text...
Yeah I know. I could be better and write real articles. Still, photo posts will always remain, I like to put them out there :)
Oh I hope you will keep putting them out there!
A good picture is still worth more than a thousand empty words.
My guess is "Augustyn" :)
Thanks for your guess :) I'm going to solve the riddle at the end of the payout period.
I look forward to it! :)
Well, Augustyn is not the right answer. @fraenk almost got it right, the name ends with "an" instead of "usz".
Eh, what a pity! Anyway, I like the "@okkiedot" )))
