What Is The Show Me Your War-face Contest?

This will be the very first contest that TheDutyHut will have the pleasure of sponsoring since we have joined the community. The SteemIt community is a great place to have fun and enter contests and earn prizes, and TheDutyHut does not want to be left out!

So in honor of All Hallows Eve or as most of us say, Halloween we are sponsoring a contest for all of the STEEM blockchain! Plankton, Minnows, Dophins, Whales and Narwhals are all eligible (of course with the exception of @sargento and our panel of judges). If they wish they can throw their War-Face in the comments, just to join in the fun!

Why Should I Enter? What are the Prizes?

We are so glad you asked, because we have some great prizes, these are fantastic prizes, when you hear how great these prizes are; you will say,

What About The Other 50% Of The Upvote Rewards?

Glad you asked. This contest is about fun, but it takes a little STEEM to get that power up in order to help folks in their posts.This contest is about the whole SteemIt Community, but it is also about helping the Veterans too, so.... the remaining 50% of the Upvote Rewards will be given to the @shadow3scalpel account. Who is he? Well let him tell you himself,

Beep! Beep! This humvee will be patrolling by and assisting new veterans, military retirees, and military members here on steemit. @shadow3scalpel will help by upvoting posts from a list of members maintained by @chairborne and responding to any questions replied to this comment.

So What Are The Rules, Do I Have To Make a Post With a Certain Tag?

I am so glad you asked, actually the answers are no, no, and definitely no! Here are the steps to enter the contest...

Step One: Upvote and Resteem this post (in order to get maximum exposure on the blockchain)

Step Two: * Take a picture of yourself in your Halloween costume making your best war-face.

Step Three: Post that picture of your war-face in the comments.

So How Do I Win, When Is the Content Beginning and Ending?

Here is where it gets just a little different from other contests...

In the case of the Winning Minnow, it will be that Minnow that receives the least comments on their picture comment.

Now someone that has entered the Halloween Contest that is a Dolphin or Whale, they will be judged by a panel of three (3) Veterans who will act as judges (they know a little something about a good warface). Those judges will be selected by Thursday, 26 October 2017. At that time the judging will begin and be ongoing until Wednesday, 1 November 2017, the day after Halloween. You may begin your submissions now if you like.

When Is The Last Day I May Submit An Entry and How Many May I Enter

Halloween, Tuesday, 31 November 2017 at 11:59 pm EST will be the last moment for entries.

If you are a Veteran, and we mean all Veterans regardless of which Nation State you reside and are interested in being a member of the judging panel the Dolphin and Whale portion of this contest, please contact either @sargento or @inthenow by message or you may visit the Discord TheDutyHut server.

Much thanks to @akrid, @battleaxe, @inthenow, and especially @swolesome who proposed this contest to us. There are many more that are very big supporters of the Veteran Community that I do not have time to list here, but they know who they are and we are appreciative.
