THE WILD & STRANGE CONTEST - SEASON 6 ROUND 1 - PHOTO CONTEST - 50 STEEM PRIZE

in wildnstrange •  7 years ago  (edited)

Is anyone willing to take a photo for a chance to win 50 STEEM?


Round 5 of Season 5 of my WILD & STRANGE Contest has officially ended! Not only do we get to start the next season, we also get to see the complete progression of the last season and find out who the winner was!

Here is the progression that this contest follows.


ROUND 1 = PHOTO – Take a photo to enter – COMPLETED


ROUND 2 = ART – Use winning photo from Round 1 to make a piece of art – COMPLETED


ROUND 3 = MEME – Use winning art from Round 2 to make a meme – COMPLETED


ROUND 4 = POETRY – Use winning meme from Round 3 to make a poem - COMPLETED


ROUND 5 = SONG – Use winning poem from Round 4 to make an original song. - COMPLETED

Contest Progression Last Season

In Round 1, @liberty-minded won the photo contest with this entry! It was his winning photo that provided the inspiration for the artwork in Round 2, which had many excellent entries. Eventually, I had to call this one the winner.

This winning artwork from @fubar-bdhr was the base for the MEME contest in Round 3. Round 3 also was an incredible round with many excellent entries submitted.

This winning meme from @skycamper was created from the artwork and served as the base inspiration of our poetry round, which will fuel our song contest... but which poem won?


This masterpiece from @majorleaguemarc won the poetry round and became the lyrics for our song contest in round 5.


The hungry hungry elephant went to search for some lunch

He had a taste for a peanut because he liked the tasty crunch

He went to the store and they were all sold out

This made the elephant almost give up and pout

But instead, the elephant persisted to look

He didn't let that delay keep him shook

Up and down the jungle the elephant searched with his herd

They STILL couldn't find one so they asked the black bird

The black bird said he'd search only for a price

The elephant said "I'll just go ask the mice"

Though the elephant had a deep deep fear of the mouse

For the love of peanuts, he went to his tiny house

The mouse said "Come in!" even though they hadn't met before

The elephant squeeeezed in - he barely fit through the door!

The elephant was uncomfortable so he hurried to ask the question

He even explained to the mouse about his weird peanut obsession

The mouse told the elephant to search by the shore

So the elephant left the house - nearly breaking the door

He went by the shore and saw a peanut a-float

The elephant only wished that he could use a boat

The elephant couldn't swim but he tried anyway

To the bottom of the ocean he sank, and woke he up at bay

He went into he pocket and came to the funny circumstance

All along he had a nut in the pocket of his pants


THE SONGS FROM ROUND 5


Last round there were three entries for the song competition. Here they are, in no particular order.

@trillex


@drewley


@verbal-d

WILD CARD

To keep things wild & strange I'm pulling a Papa-pepper Snow-Globe Wildcard on this one! Honestly, I love running contests but hate picking only one winner. Sometimes, you just have to do it, and other times you can choose not to. THIS ROUND HAD NO WINNERS! All entrants will receive 50 STEEM just because @papa-pepper can!

@drewley - @trillex - @verbal-d = 50 STEEM for all of you!


Sometimes, it just pays to enter!

ON TO SEASON 6!

I think it is time to get our STEEM on! For Season 6 Round 1, all you need to do to enter is to take a photo of a person with a steemit logo and reply to this post with the image. It can be a selfie, a photo of someone else, a baby, a stranger, or whoever. It just needs to be a person, with a steemit logo in the photo. Get creative and have fun, and check out the official rules below.

Here are the rules for Season 6 Round 1:


  • Take an original photo of a person and a steemit logo.
  • The winning photo will be used as the inspiration for artwork in the next round, so you may want to keep that in mind.
  • Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post.
  • You can still make a post out of your entry, but your post does not count as an entry, only your reply.
  • Keep everything kid-friendly and G rated.
  • You must enter by midnight next Sunday (CST) in order for your entry to be considered valid.
  • By entering, you are giving me full permission to use your entry however I wish.

Photographers and other people with phones, cameras and such, now is your chance to have some fun, show off your skills, and possibly earn some STEEM in the process!



The winner from this round will be awarded 50 STEEM, and I’m looking forward to your entries.

Your posts are always so entertaining.
I'm looking forward to a signed copy of the papa-pepper softback book when it comes out.

What would be the subject matter of the book? I can write a bit...

Am I a man or a Muppet?

Yes! My first entry! Thanks!

If Ryu and Zangief from Street Fighter had a kid together on Steemit.

~WINNER~

Woooohooooo! Now on to round 2! I can enter each round right?

Yes you can, everyone can enter each round as many times as they like. They can even make posts about it too!

you are SO the winner :D

Thank you so much bro, the songs were definitely wild and strange. Congrats to the other winners!

Yeah they were, and you are doing a fantastic job on the audiobook man!

Thank you bro, so glad I can add to its wonderful content already

Oh my god! I didn't expect to turn into a songwriter. I feel official B)

This is awesome, congrats to the winners

Now you've got another claim to fame. Three steemians have published songs using your lyrics! LOL!

Will you be joining us for the photo round now? I'm sure that you can get something going, right?

Hello..can i join..
Ill just post my photo here??

YES ---> "Enter original work and provide your entry in a reply to this post."

Yup

Hey @papa-pepper!
I'd like to submit this photo

I took it last weekend on a festival where I played a gig with my brother :)

Entry #2 Tried to capture some lightning as the storm was coming in but the rain started coming down hard and had to abandon that idea.

Wow, great job getting these in just in time!

Thanks. I've been thinking about it all week, running different ideas thru my head. I almost didn't get the pics taken. I had a project today replacing the steps on our deck (post with pics and videos to come later) and by the time I got that done, cleaned up and ate dinner I was rushing to get pics taken before the storm came in. Doing pics for contests on steemit is fun but projects at home gotta get done first. Happy wife, happy life.

Nice share ma man.
This good post for updating news and for motivating steemians around the world.
You are good writer good job you have done. I like your style and your creation.
If you have time help me to be like you my brother.
With u all became
Thanks for sharing this one.

Are these all photoshoped?

I took the pictures and just added the logo, if thats what you mean? @deserttree

lol ok ;)

I know my friends are so lovely. Makes you where all the craziness comes from, don't forget to upvote your favorite! @deserttree

To the Moon!

What does that mean?! @papa-pepper, you like, which is your favorite?

I was hoping to start with actual steemit logos in the photos, but I was commenting about the anti-gravity treadmill, hence the "To the moon!"

"Light Bulb Moment" -Oh gotcha, that was taken in Nebraska.

Jajjajaja, buena suerte a los que participen!!!

"Sometimes, it just pays to enter".
because @papa-pepper can #giversneverlack .

@arizonawise.

LOL!

This is a contest that makes me excited

Me too! LOL!

@papa-pepper, so the photo is due THIS coming Sunday, or the following one?

Yeah, it is this Sunday, which happens to be the next one on the calendar. I get your point.

Ah okay. I wasn't busting balls, just clarifying. I'm taking a trip next week and was just seeing if I can take one on location!

Cool, I was just remembering a "This Saturday vs. Next Saturday" scene from the movie "Mom's Night Out."

I was totally thinking of the dialogue from that scene but couldn't remember the movie title. Thanks!

This is so nice to see an overview of the whole "project" can't listen to the songs right now, because my girlfriend is sleeping next to me, but I will listen tomorrow! Great idea, this is really something from "The Community" where everyone could show their talents! I love the fact you picked more then 1 winner! Great! Keep on Steeming!

Yeah, the thing really builds, allows all sorts of talented people to enter in the rounds they want to, and in the end, who knows where we will end up. Thanks!

Also, make sure to come back for the songs, they are crazy!

goodluck bro nice

lol that is a LOT of work :) requesting easier contest for future :) let's not make Steemit harder :) Good Luck to participants!

All people need to do is take a photo of someone with a steemit logo and reply to this post with it.

Most of this post was a recap of last season to give people an update and to give newer people an idea of how this contest runs and progresses.

oh lol my bad, I thought it was about all rounds :) let me go find a human, its a rarity in here on Mars.

LOL. Yeah, many users are very familiar with this contest, but newer ones have no idea, so I understand that the way I posted can be confusing.

yea, I literally found you yesterday and started following you, I really like your idea of creating categorized search tool.

Cool, thanks! Followed back.

Very interesting writing, unfortunately not to be read

It is a contest, not an article.

I know, I mean, dear not to read, read in any detail written by friends, not just articles that should be given a good thumb, but any information is very useful to us, if we do not follow it, then we will be left behind.

Good luck, I liked the videos friends I hope to continue to progress in the community!!

Do we need to actually sing the song? Lol

This round is just a photo round. Here are the rules for Round 1:

Take an original photo of a person and a steemit logo. Post your photo in the replies to this post.

I want to enter. But I don't sing haha. Also if I enter and I so happen to not sing, I can just do what I can and know right?

All that people need to do in this round is enter a photo to win. Next round they have to make art to win. In round three all they have to do is make a meme. Then people can write poetry in Round 4 to win, and sing or rap in round 5.

No one needs to enter all the rounds. I just try to have something for everyone over the scope of the contest, so anyone with any talents at least have something to do.

Does that make sense?

Gotcha. Sounds awesome

Good luck everyone! Looking forward to seeing all the crazy creations
:D

Me too! Will you be entering?

I should be playing your contests as full time job.

great idea :)

It could be financially beneficial.

Well depends on how wild and strange I am. ;)

Or how wild and strange I am!

Haha!
Totally.

How this for an entry?

Dan Steemit.JPG

That's an entry!

Doesn't say we can't enter twice correct?

jaybird Steemit.jpg

Enter as many times as you like.

perfect Mwahahahahaha

I Like this sooo much😂😂

Thx bud, i think that there is lots of potential for it to turn silly in the next round ;)

Papa. I'm a kinda new follower so being that said. I had no idea about this contest you had.
And those songs, damn @verbal-d killed it hahah.
Just look at all you can create with the steem that you get from us. This is awesome those songs were truly amazing, all the creativity and thoughts you can make people do. This is awesome.
I will get into this one with my phone :D for sure.
Thanks for doing this kind of stuff this is great, see one more reason why you do so great man. You deserve it
Soy tu tio

Soy tu Papa! (not potato)

lol I know what you mean hahaha xD

Loved your competition and so glad @drewley was a winner. @deimus wrote such a nice article on him last evening

let's do this, shall we ? :D

Do it! Do it!

Do it! Do it!

Look who I found steeming.

Please no discrimination of Seagals. We play nice with dolphins and whales. We only eat minnows :)

Hahhah! Nice one

AH sweet :)

Contests are nice but I dont have a change.

No chance only if you do not enter...

Hahhahahaah what a crazy and dynamic contest!
Only @Papa-pepper would sponsor such a thing!
LETS GET IT ON!

Somehow, it is even my brainchild! LOL

hahaha u got the tag wildstrange too hahah

It even trended for a bit on the trending topics page! LOL

Nice! wild and strange trends.....hahaha

Okay, maybe one more:

IMG_5948.jpg

Let me know if this isn't kid friendly enough and I'll take er down. I figure, all kids like farts right?

I thought maybe no at first, but then I realized it was just lighting a fart.

Since that skill can save your life in a survival situation, we will call it fine for children. Thanks for checking though!

Bahaha, "Since that skill can save your life in a survival situation..." You're too funny man. No prob, it was more the position he's in that I was worried about.

Yeah, I was wondering what kind of crazy people I had gotten myself mixed up with at first, but then realized that you guys were just practicing survival skills. All good!

It will not win though.... just saying LOL

I didn't think it would. It was more of a joke entry. I think my first entry has a chance and of course my signature Steemit photo is my favourite. I might come up with something fresh though, I'm enjoying this one ~

I can't wait to try my hand in the contest this season! Seems like alot of fun!

Sadly I couldn't finish the instrumental for the last seasons song :/
Well I'll just try taking part in this one :)
@papa-pepper Until when are we allowed to reach in photos?
And btw. Keep up the nice work! Love your content :)

Awesome! great to hear those original talented people here, CONGRATULATION TO THE WINNERS!

Talented steemians every step of the way, all combining to create some interesting things together!

I'll see if I can make a better image later, but for now here's a low quality one XD

Photo on 27-06-17 at 09.29.jpg

And no, that isn't photoshopped. That's my phone held between my fingers displaying the Steemit logo with black borders XD

Cool that it was not photoshopped.

hm... I'm thinking of applying that "dreaming art AI" to whichever photo wins... could be... interesting XD

o0o0oh this is very fun. I am pretty disabled and bed-ridden so I will have to enter myself but I will think about how to get creative with it!! :D Thanks for this fun contest. Wait does my cat count? No no, I will do myself. I wish my cat would participate with me but if I try to handle her she starts flailing around with her insanely sharp claws. XD

Congrats to all the winners. I have my entry for this one.

Let me just say I had bigger plans but it turns out painting Cartoon Lemons on a canvas with no small brushes at my disposal proved very difficult and it was hard to tell she was holding Steem. So I edited it to make that more obvious and improve her sweet hair. :)

I decided to go with this entry because I did use up a canvas and got paint on my only paint-free shirt I had left. :D

Great contest @papa-pepper ...I will take part in...

Glad to hear it! Please do enter! Thanks!

Very innovative. Love it. Look froward to seeing the next winner :)

If you want to take a photo of someone with the steemit logo, the next winner may just be you!

Hi @papa-pepper! Truly a wild and strange contest for sure. If I could do memes or create songs even I would happily participate. :)
On another note, I pm you about some contests. Require information. Kindly check on Discord/Steemit chat. Thanks!

Nice idea, i liked

3 very strong entries for the song contest. Verbal-d killed it lol.

I think that they all nailed it, and did a great job with those lyrics! How wild and strange was that?

They did don't get me wrong! I actually really valued the fact that all 3 were pretty distinctive.

The piano entry spoke to me since I love the piano so much and @trillex had something cool happening there too. I just connected the most with D's. It had all the elements for me, kinda corky instrumental and the production quality was there!

Yeah, I guess if I was into choosing winners I would have picked him!

Oh I think it was really cool of you to reward all three of them. Especially bc they were the only contestants who put the effort in to enter. Making a song is hard work and often time consuming. Those guys deserved what they got!

It is. New lyrics, figure out how to make them fit. It can get rough. I once used lyrics from 12 other steemians to make a song to enter into an Open Mic.

Haha Wow dude...solid performance. That really went on for a while too. I hope you won open mic that week, seriously.

That "ninja turtles nintendo music" won me over instantly.

Lol, I miss that game!

I remember this😂 This is the video that made me join openmic! So many lyrics from different steemians coupled into one.....Amazing!

Thanks my friend!

AHAHAHAH you suck so bad at singing and RAP I love it i cant stop laughing #funniestdude #ahahahhah #cutthesound #7minutesoflove <3 thanks for the heart <3
