Round #18: The Word is
“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”
― George Bernard Shaw
Good Luck to all Contenders
What is the Creativity Contest all about?
In short: It is simply about generating a valuable entry based on the word associated with each round.
The entry/comment with the most upvotes wins.
In depth: The idea is to stimulate and engage steemians in creative work through rewards and competition. My assumption is that larger the reward gets the more challenging it becomes to win which will lead to a greater level of competition therefore higher quality of work being submitted.
The Creativity Contest could possibly:
- Encourage differentiation
- Push steemians to avoid complacency
- Help Forming unexpected partnerships, as the competition allows people to cooperate and work on an entry/comment.
- Provide a nest for mutual learning, as steemians will have the chance to learn and get inspired by the many ways of approaching self-expression.
- Lead to highly Imaginative work, as competition gets rougher.
How to enter the contest?
Let's say Mr. Herbert Hoover wants to enter Round #37 and the word associated with it is "Competition"
All he has to do is represent the meaning of the word in an original entry/comment (100% his work and creation)
- He can write a definition of the word (no plagiarism)
- He can post a video in which he discusses the meaning of the word
- Any Art form that could symbolize and represent the word (humor, painting, drawing, music..)
- He can write a short story
- He can discuss the origin of the word
- Discuss its meaning philosophically
- Literally anything goes as long as it is his original work
Mr. Hoover decided to share what he thinks about "Competition" in a short sentence
and before entering his post he made sure to use this format:
How to qualify for rewards?
- Your entry has to be the fruit of your original work.
- No plagiarism
- Use only videos, photos, drawings, sounds, short stories, definitions of your own creation
- Upvote the round you are entering - resteem (helps increase the reward pool yet optional)
- Upvote your favorite entry on the round (other than yours)
Note: Self-votes do not count.
General Info:
- Each Edition will contain 50 rounds
- The winner of each round will get all the SBD that the post generated.
- The steemian with the most wins after 50 rounds will be crowned Edition Champion and get the SBD of his highest winning entry doubled (total reward is less or equal to 100 SBD).
- SBD rewards will be distributed after each round which lasts a week long.
- I will upvote a minimum of one relevant entry per round.
- The entry with the most non-bot upvotes wins.

#Contest entry:
Communication is simply any reaction established and exchanged between a subject and an object "Even if a man, object refuses to communicate, he is still communicating"
#contestentry
In the Old World, Man and Woman were much different then they are today. Today Man and Woman exist for each other - they have built a world where communication revolves around themselves and largely forgotten the myriad of ways with which they used to engage.
The Old World marked the superiority of communication for Man and Woman. The trees, the animals, the very sea and sky were all within the realm of connection. The Woman who would go to the river to wash herself could sing with the birds of the forest along the way, dance with Mother Earth in the glades, and counsel with the fish on matters of utter importance. The Man could lose himself on the hunt, but he would never be lost. He could ask the wolf how to follow the herds, shout to Father Sky in times of loneliness, and turn to follow the crow home at days end.
Man and Woman gradually began turning to only each other for these things - song, counsel, companionship, dance - and over generations our communication with the world was hidden. The New World does not function with regards to these things it has its own language and forms of communication. The secret is to find the balance - hunt the Old Man and the New Man, dance with the Old Woman and the New Woman. Embrace the breadth of communication holds humanity.
