A very special thanks to our two generous sponsors for this week @papa-pepper & @bleedpoet who are responsible for upping the prize pool to 40SBD. We are still looking for more Sponsons!


LAST BUT NOT LEAST SELECTING A WINNER!

  1. I will be selecting the winner based on a variety of parameters. Just do your thing and have fun with it. I'm considering many factors such as presentation, ingredients & originality, creativity, community opinion & artistic ability just to name a few.

  2. To start, there will be 2 prizes. First Prize = 70% of the SBD pool collected

  3. Second Prize dubbed the "Veto Vote" = 30% of the SBD pool collected + the honour of selecting the following weeks second prize winner. This prize is ideally given to an entry that although it did not win the contest, showed distinction among all the other entries. This could be a feature such as it was the community favourite, it used the most bazaar ingredients, or, it was just the best looking sandiwch etc. IMPORTANT! The "Veto Vote" holder may not vote on his or her own sandwich to be selected as the second prize.

This weeks "Veto Vote" holder is @bleedpoet.

  • As the first official sponsor of this competition he has been allotted the honour of selecting the "Veto Vote," second prize winner for "Steemit Sandwich Contest Week 1."

  • IMPORTANT! "Veto Vote" holders must always present their selection to @jaybird in confidence and allow the news to be revealed in an "officially Steemit Sandwich Contest blog post." Deviation from this method will result in a forfeit of the "Veto Vote" and thus, the selection will be consider null and a new winner will be chosen by @jaybird.

  • "Veto Voters" can contact @jaybird through discord jaybird#4732 or, an e-mail address will be provided to communicate. If for whatever reasons, the "Veto Vote" winner does not select an entry in the following weeks contest, I will be the default second prize selector for that week.

@jaybird reserves the right to alter the contest rules and structure as necessary.

ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT MANDATORY, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO RE-STEEM THS POST IN ORDER TO HELP SPREAD THE WORD AND GROW THE PRIZE POOL.

Yes Yes, I love your enthusiasm! looks fantastic. Mama Mia !

Very noice! Love the glamour shot ;)

So glad to hear that this is your first steemit contest. Welcome and thanks so much for your entry! This is my first hosting of a steemit contest and of course the first week it's running. Extra awesome that you were able to participate.

Love the sandwiches! Going to have to go eat a classic jaybird manwich now lol...

Is 3 pictures max too little for this Contest?

  • I will be making some alterations to the contest next week based on community feedback so please don't hesitate to point things out! Thank you!

Limitations, meh, I want sandwiches that tell a story, take me on an adventure, a sandwich to take me out for lunch, to a casino, bet it all on red,loose it all, end up in an alley at gunpoint where I'm forced to eat my new found friend in a terrifying yet sumptuous experience.... Sandwiches are just stuff that's in bread, I want to hear the banjo duel that goes with it 🐷🙈

rules and such are for first place winners... I'm looking for that definite 2nd place feel. Perfection is an over rated commodity, bars and scales are for musicians, prisoners and judges, I'm a Rebel Wilson without a cause. I guess this is a forewarning the veto vote may not constrain itself to formula.

Thanks for entering brotha!

Of course!!

Thanks for your entry! Beautifully made meal and as I said before, interesting ingredients choice!

You're welcome. Your contest has some great sandwiches in it!

You crazy sandwich addict ;) I love it!

LOL

Woohoo! First off, mad props to @jaybird for this awesome, drool-inducing contest. Had a lot of fun doing this, so thank you!
Alright, here's my entry:

https://steemit.com/steemitsandwichcontest/@shalala/steemit-sandwich-contest-week-1-muenchen-delight-by-shalala

So glad you could sneak in an entry! I would have loved to eat that sausage sandwich! Reminds me of my time in Germany!

Thx for your prompt entry! What a sandwich and I love the sign!

BTW you are the first valid submission. Congratulations!

Thank you so much!!

You're most welcome ! Thanks again fro your entry! Hope you're having fun and meeting some new ppl.

Here should have a photo of that sandwich. right?

haha nice! Definitely makes the comment stand out!

Beautiful Presentation... Thanks for entering ! Congrats on being the first open face sandwich. I was wondering when someone would do that

Can't wait to see and taste the entries 😃 Please use FedEx to ensure freshness, all the sandwiches I receive by UPS usually have limp lettuce 😝

But in all seriousness, I look forward to assisting @jaybird in this foray. Though not everyone can win the prestigious title of Earl of Steemit Sandwich and the high rolling prize, each entrant will win a fully edible, lunch time supply of food. (Entrants must supply said food)

Best of luck to all contestants.

Yes man! I'm very much also looking forward to seeing the entries!

At this point, all I've ever really seen on steemit are my own creations and I guess your banana dogs lol.

BTW: I just realized that by allotting you "Veto Vote" I have also consequently disqualified you from winning the 2nd prize for week 1...my bad. I didn't think about that beforehand.

Hope your okay with that..? If not, I can take it back hahaha ;)

Dude, honestly I'm the least competitive person ever, I once won a golf tournament with the highest score🤔 I'm just happy to be a part of the fun. @papa-pepper swings bigger balls then I could, hope he enters a sammich.

right on, it's mostly a community building event anyway. Ya I'd be interested in seeing what kind of sandwiches he makes !

This is a Null Entry as I am the host: However, I wanted to Make this in the spirit of the contest!

Enjoy !

OMG - those are excellent sandwiches.

Put Up a photo in your comment brotha, show off that glorious sandwich !

🍞🧀🌶🍳🍞??
Sorry, I remain the least tech savvy on the block..chain.

holy cow! can it fit in my mouth?

Ha, that sounds like a line from fiftyshades ;) j/k

It's a two bite process for sure. I hope you'll enter with a sandwich more suited to your tiny mouth lol

i'd like to take a bite please. my tiny mouth is expandable lol

haha oh lord. Manwiches are expandable too..

train me please. lol

Hmm, I'm not sure if your ready to be my apprentice, I'm very demanding...and if you mess up.. I'd have to punish you

i will gladly bend over and accept your punishment master jaybird :p

and I will gladly administer said punishment, when you screw up of course ..
Might have to confer with bleedpoet as to what that will be.

You like sandwiches right..?

Unrelated question... How do you say the safe word with a ball gag in?

r u a bot?

Nope, generally inquisitive inquiring mind. Also a top, I go limp pointing up... Wait, which was the question?

how 'bout meet me outside?

How 'bout you show me your sammich.

@jaybird already showed you.

I once invented a sandwich... @matthewtiii even reproduced it.

Great contest!

Oh Ya? What was it!? Did it include steem powered hogs..?

I looked on Matts page... didn't see anything sandwich related off the top :(

Thx again for your support on this. Hoping it can translate into a strong community building thing for steemit..

It's nearly 5 am and my stomach is growling from all the fantastic sandwiches I'm seeing @.@ great idea btw. It'll be like having a sandwich foodstrip here lol

Hey Thanks for the kind words. Don't hold it against us for making your stomach growl. I think it's trying to tell you something... Make a sandwich, enter contest, consume snadwich ;)

Careful, Snadwiches can cause serious indigestion. 😝Sp

Lol I'm too simple-minded (simple-stomached?) to create something contest-worthy. Ham, bacon, cucumber, and egg in a sandwich is the best I can do.

It's not necessarily about who makes the "best" sandwich... It's about your entry, community building etc. Just have fun with it. Keep it simple.
Sometimes the classic sandwich is the best IMO.

I've made countless Manwiches with pretty much those ingredients u mentioned.

I hope you'll consider entering this week. Not much competitions yet... Big prize tho

You guys are killing me here I can't eat any of that on my diet haha

Awe... Maybe you can make a sandwich that corresponds to your dietary needs!?

Not every sandwich needs to be gluttonous. that's just my thing ;)

It's quite hard when your on a zero carb diet lol

Well, u could make a lettuce wrap or something else that doesn't use bread ...

Part of the contest is to encourage creativity and just having fun with it.

Yes man!! I am pumped for this contest! Hopefully we generate some good buzz!! I have resteemed it!

Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. And ya I'm super excited about it. Hopefully it goes somewhere haha. Good prize amount for week 1

A darn good prize amount for the first week!!

Ha Ha - that is an interesting contest!!
Let the best Sandwich win :-)

Ya, should be a blast! Looking forward to your entry!

Resteemed! Awesome contest!

Thank you and much appreciated. Looking forward to your entry ;)

nice!

Bah! I missed the cutoff!! Somehow I had it in my mind that it was around noon today. Ah well, here's my entry nonetheless! Thanks @jaybird! https://steemit.com/steemitsandwichcontest/@jaymorebeet/steemit-sandwich-contest-week-1-lamb-kebab-mango-beet-and-feta-in-homemade-pita-bread

Despite that, this is an extraordinary piece and adds value to what we're doing here!
