RESULT: Gennie in a Bottle

in hive-107855 •  7 months ago  (edited)

Within the sealed vessel, a dormant force lingered, responding to the touch of those who unveiled its secrets. Wishes were granted, but with each granted desire, ripples of unintended repercussions unfurled, a silent reminder of the complexities tied to unveiling hidden powers.

Hello dreamers, this is the round-up for the Contest; Gennie in a Bottle with the prompt 'cultural harmony'.

I received seven entries in response to my contest call. I can categorize these entries into two groups. Three entries were images generated by AI without any accompanying posts, which is okay because the contest didn't demand it exclusively. However, one entry exceeded these because, firstly, it painted a beautiful and happy picture of cultural harmony. It had a fun element that's hard to resist, and it included a sufficient description. For me, it's the second runner-up. This entry is by @o1eh

In the alternate category, I received three publications centered around the theme of cultural harmony, each accompanied by AI-generated images, as permitted by the contest guidelines. Although not obligatory, such additions were greatly valued. Among these, a standout entry was from @event-horizon. She adeptly utilized the prompt, taking the extra step to elucidate her narrative through multiple comments on her post. In other words she went extra lengths for her story narration and engagement with other participants of the contest. Against the backdrop of Steemit, her usage of the prompt is eloquent, earning her the title of the contest winner in my eyes.

Securing the position of the first runner-up is @beyondhersmile. Skillfully weaving the prompt "cultural harmony" into the narrative, she illuminated the challenges confronted by a newcomer in an unfamiliar setting. Her portrayal resonated with the warm reception extended by a diverse group, showcasing a harmonious blend of cultures.

Originally, I planned for two winners, but I'm compelled to announce three.

Finally, as the host of the contest, I also participated in the contest. You can see my post linked below, in case you have missed it :)

Some users have expressed their concerns, and others were more than displeased with the concept of this contest. Taking into account these remarks, the wishes of the community, and the essence of this harmonious space, I have decided not to proceed with this contest any further.

Thank you to those who contributed in any way this time, and apologies to those who may have wanted me to continue. All in all, it was a learning experience for many of us, ending on a positive note. Take care until next time. You will see the distribution of the prize STEEM in the comments as a screenshot of transactions from my wallet.

Happy Dreaming,
yours

Wow I couldn’t agree more with your choice of winners they all did a great job 👏. It was fun to be a part of this contest learned something new and valuable. Bravo on coming up with something new and inspiring 👏👏

I'm delighted you took part and found the contest valuable.

Participation truly becomes fulfilling when it is also enjoyable, fostering motivation among the participants, in my opinion.

Thank you for your contribution:)

Congratulations to all - organisers and participants! And wishing you a great new week - with new challenges and debates!

Thank you :)

I think it's the first time I'm a winner in a steem contest.😁

The other two winners did justice to the prompt and created amazing content around it.

I wish you could continued this contest. But I respect your decision.

You have been on the other side of the fence mostly! 😉

Your story was amazing and deserved every chance to win :)

Thank you for the prize and the great contest🥳.

I think your choice is correct. I also liked the entry of @event-horizon the most. I wonder if she deliberately convinced the AI to draw a mermaid in the colors of the Ukrainian flag or if it happened by accident 🙂.

You missed this comment I guess. 😛

Damn glitches. Now I miss a lot - notifications don't come, comments don't show up.

I think AI chose a mermaid for a reason. In Ukrainian classical literature, there is a famous fantastic work, the main character of which is Mavka. Mavka is a forest mermaid, which, however, has legs. Recently, on the basis of this work, a very cool cartoon was created in Ukraine, and the entire information space is full of Mavka.

I'm using SteemWorld & SteemPro app to keep up with the notifications and comments. Steemit is giving everyone a real headache these days.

I didn't know about Mavka but that makes sense now. I tried giving commands in different ways but AI was stuck on the mermaid.

She has explained the reason in one of of her replies under the post 😉

My head is spinning because of the stupid glitches. No notifications, no comments... Now I'm missing out on a lot 🙁

Congratulations
