Somethings Brewing in the Steemit World

in #contest7 years ago

Kevin1IMG_20170623_2309333.jpgWhen three prominent steemians

get together from VERY disparate parts of this globe of ours, you just gotta know that something's brewing in the steemit/graphene world. Now what could it be?

Best and/or most original guess (as judged by me, @onceuponatime) wins $50 SBD, payable upon payout of this post in 7 days.

Only three guesses per person please.

You are in Greece. Beautiful Tzatziki in the foreground. Only Greek serves the salad with Greek cheese.

They are likely to open a new bank in Greece. This is what brings the Greek economy on its feet. In the bank is paid with Steemdollar. 50 employees are hired. Your task is then to post around the clock. A true money machine. And then it is no longer Brexit but Greccit

man i love tzatziki. wait, i love everything food wise that's on that table! that hanging meat tower thou! yes, yummy!

Possibilities 2 and 3 are unimportant when the first plan works

Three Angels for Greece.

Wow I would almost buy into your idea but you're forgetting that the Greek are very laid back....

@carlostiziano This is just a rumor. When they get "Steemdollar Eyes", they become more diligent than ants.

And employees do not need - the people of Greece themselves will serve themselves through the Internet!

one thing is for sure nobody can accuse you, having no creative imagination LOL
Steem on

In our world today, imagination is very important. The more imagination you have, the freer you are through this world

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge

i disagree with that only because without some knowledge, you will lack imagination!

@onceuponatime I think planning blockchain smart contracts to eliminate corporate tax avoidance in cross border transactions

@onceuponatime thx for the nice contest but i have a question,
Who won the competition?

The steps needed to form a benevolent version of the Bilderberg Group!

Holy Shit! You've been reading The Creature from Jekyll Island

or, you can't sleep and reading my posts is more effective than counting sheep :-)

The poor Old Dog is on his way to work!

It hurts to be an old dog.

And I hear you can't learn any new tricks.

I haven't gone to bed yet.

If only I could figure out a way to earn a living while just staying at home, or wherever I am when I travel.

Oh, wait. I HAVE.

Good one!

Oh, wait. I HAVE.

👏 👏 👏

my guess is you guys are figuring a way how to help greek economy to recover through the blockchain somehow? Maybe Steem related, maybe with another new project.

My second guess Is you are considering ordering another round of drinks

Third guess is you are deciding weather to take a cab or an Uber to get back to the hotel...

Another one could be you guys are discussing how big a tip you are going to give to the waiter/waitress

:D Thanks for the giveaway @onceuponatime

I like the thought process here...

haa ha ha ha, so you confused, you dont think that @kus-knee have time for read any post.

@onceuponatime

That is an excellent book!

I'm steeming while trying to figure out how to make the fan about my head turn into steem power!

It is great to be with you now in Greece. This steemit/graphene world is growing fast with many marvelous members (how's THAT for a good alliteration?)

IMG_8877.JPG

Wow, a super meeting! What are you doing??? I want to know what's really going down!

What other than TOTAL WORLD DOMINATION!!!

Your quick wit is on display and it's obviously appreciated!

Hmm maybe getting this guy to drop twitter and start using STEEMIT!!!!

dear mr president, i know you wanna make america first, but this boys are making Steem ground zero ;) thank you very much for doing that, you'll like it - it has zero FAKE NEWS!

there will be a new service, a more luxury one called Trumpit lol
I think will have a decentralized president one day:)

Yeah and all the money that is made can be funneled into paying off our national debt!

@splatterhaus great idea my friend. Someone needs to draft this up ASAP so the president could approve lol...But really imagine it. Steemit would grow 10 fold over night if Trump talk about it.

Yeah I mean it's not like Donald Trump needs the money....

hahahahah he would probably say differently lol, but I think putting the money from steemit to the debt is a YUGE idea!

Upvoted and followed for using the word YUGE. Lols

Merging with another Crypto Currency!
I agree with @denmarkguy TWD!

Mwahahahahahaha ;)

Prominent Steemians from different parts of the globe - what could they possibly discuss when they get together?

  1. How to promote Hero in their respective countries

  2. The Bitshare - Munich saga and Constantin Garibaldi. How to use Steemians as detectives to solve the mystery.

(Will be back with the 3rd possibility)

I was reading your posts and there is a lot I can learn from you. Followed.

being new here I literally have no idea who these Steeming Young Lads are or why they are together.

1st Guess:

Guy in middle jumped in as he is the bartender, just for a photo shoot from a famous asian guy and some awesome older guy that were just talking bout business. Hence why guy in middle has a slight smile, guy on left does not care and guy on right is always smirking like the beautiful bastard he is.

2nd Guess:

Guy on left is pissed cause the camera guy said cheese. Guy in middle is smiling cuz we know he likes cheese. Guy on right is like fuck cheese, look at this Kebab.

3rd Guess:

This is a family picture. Yes. Guy on right is the Patriarch of the family. The guy in the middle is his son, maybe he wanted him, maybe he didn't. Who is to say other than the guy on the right. So it could be his legitimate son, which I doubt, their smiles do not match. But maybe middle guy takes after his mother. So he could be married in. Smirk from right guy makes sense, if he likes him. Otherwise just a son-in-law he sometimes cares about, most of the time does not. Now we get the guy on the left. He is for sure married in, unless some spontaneous nature evolution happened. My guess at best, boyfriend of either the middle guys side of the family or the right guys side of the family. Either way he knows what is up and does not approve of this picture or this message.

This has been brought to you by @egregorian.

And the number 17

An extra upvote for you for adding the qualifier "beautiful" to what most people call me :-)

"guy on right is always smirking like the beautiful bastard he is."

Yay!!! Well thats the truth!!

Guess 2 Ordering a Pizza!

:]

:-)

P.S : Thank you for giving me a smacker full of €€€ for a pizza of my own!
*runs to Dominos for an Xtra Large *

Sometimes I just like to keep it simple , easy does it haha :)

I think the answe has got to be : The 3 Musketeers, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, waiting for the arrival of D'Artagnan, so they can finally fight the evil Richelieu -like forces threatening the kingdom, heroically risking their own lives in order to put things straight again.

Elementary by dear Steemians:

The man in the middle's dapper attire and mustache/goatee combo, along with the presence of a chicken Kebob, can mean one thing and one thing only. Our blue and black-striped friend has gathered his mates to present a revolutionary reformation of the Kebob.

They will call it: THE KEROBERT. A sophisticated, always succulent version of the Kebob hitherto unseen. It's hard to tell from their smiling faces, but if you look deep into their eyes, you see a distaste --NAY!--a disdain for the mere chicken pierced by their skewer. The KeRobert will not settle for chicken, onions, or the common bell pepper, rather it will consist of the finer delicacies: salmon, sea-bass, rockfish, wagyu beef, imported root vegetables from Denmark. The KaRobert will whet even the finest hot-dog-eating champion's appetite after having just vomited 44 wieners. That's a KeRobert guarantee.

"But what will our supporters and investors call themselves?", our black-capped, Hawaiian-shirted friend asks.

Easy, replies our slick, salt-and-pepper patron in the white tee: "The Keroberators. Because they will corroborate our every move in this lucrative business venture"

And that, my fair Steemians, is why these fine fellows have gathered today.

Perfection.

It's obvious.

You're planning on how to get rid of me!

(I know that look!)

  1. Getting the great Tom Robbins to join Steemit!

You are going to try and overtake Facebook, Instagram and Snap Chat all in one, and integrate a more social media type platform, to replace all three and dominate the entire social media platforms.

Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram can eat a suitcase full of dicks... seriously.

I think I remember Kevin and Liondani from SteemFest1, and you all are in Grece. If I'm not wrong, Liondani the guy in the back seems to be the host and he is from Grece. In my opinion, I think he was in that place before and he likes​ it very much that's why he brought you there.
You are traveling a lot @onceuponatime, and always in such amazing places. I can't wait to do that too, maybe one day I will start traveling more!​ I wish you a great time there!

These guys know each other from steemit posts and comments, having a dinner at a restaurant in the center of Athens working on an idea that will include steemit platform as a censorship resistant medium, steem dollars as a value transfer token and current Greek legislative that will make it all possible;
The guy on the right just recently had a nasty lawsuit, where his ex-business partner (after they decided to go separate ways) wanted to take more than a fair amount of his hard earned money that is sitting in his bank account, in his name. At the time it looked very bad for him, and he knew that the opponent's lawyers would win the case if he doesn't do something about it.
It was supposed to be yet another easy task for the lawyers but lucky for him he contacted his steemit friend who happened to be a good accountant and a successful entrepreneur,
and they together figured out a way for him to send the money from his bank account abroad and convert it into cryptocurrency - basically hiding it from the crooked lawyers.
The beauty of the method is that it is completely legal, (yet somewhat complicated), and it can be replicated and used in other people's cases.
The picture shows them together with a third friend celebrating a sweet victory over injustice, and discussing on how to turn the idea into a startup and a new business model that will thrive on the rising cryptocurrencies adoption. The project was to be called JailBreak

2: Plotting to buy the Hadron Collider, pay CERN in Steem, and create an offshoot reality in which Poloniex always handles Steem deposits and withdrawals smoothly.

Nope, already did that. Just not ready for release yet until we get a decent front end.

Oh, how exciting!!!

Haha I like this one!, hope they purchase the collider turn it off and prevent it from unleashing the walking dead among us ;)

3: Ironing out the details for the pilot episode of your new reality TV series, "Steemrolling"!

No.The series is called: "I'm steemed. And I'm not going to take it anymore!"

That's good but you should consider "When the Steem Hits the Fan"

Something is definitely brewing. These guys look like they are plotting something . Go Steemit. Potential is so great. I'd like to be a fly hovering above that table hearing what they are saying. At the same time, if I were a fly, I'd be checking out that hanging meat skewer. lol

Thnx for the upvote. Appreciate it.

I guess they are discussing, if at all about Steem, about how to market and create more steemians. Looking for greater market cap. That's what I can guess at the best as a newcomer to the steemit family.

-1- Greek social network (steemit clone like Golos)
-2- Sports Betting/prediction market
-3- Cryptocurrency fund/exchange platform

Greek community in steem is much bigger than I thought! =D

You all gathered just for the sake of creating this very post, and this very contest - therefore generating steem and paying for that dinner with it :P

its clear: these three guys are starting a band! rage of the steemmachine (or such)! first single: "steeming in the name of". Its also clear that the guy on the right is the singer since he looks most badass. I am looking forward for their music!

I think you tree are making plans, how to better expose steemit to the rest of the world. Making sure that everyone will be treated honest and with a good share.

You three are going to form a dancing group...and shoot a music video? :)

Buying a Greek island? :)

LOL

... and guess which one

.... just drinking coffee!

Strategizing on how to solve the Rubik's cube faster?

May I give it a try?

Sure, but you will be wrong.

Ok I will give it a go you are gathered for the decentralized nations manifesto... I have no idea though. My greetings to your lovely company.

by the photo I'd say they are planning to drink a "brew" after that barbecue 😂

Thinking if steemfest 2 location can still be move.

To Greece?

@onceuponatime You are in Greece?! I wasn't sure if that was souvlaki =D

I'm here! Pretty soon Greece won't know what hit her. Prosperity is returning!

To say so, you must know something more. Let's see if this cycle of terror will close for Greece :)))

Really glad to hear that, when I was a few years ago - the position of Scarecrow, many people were very "broken". Now you know, you need to prepare the bags and next year be sure to visit this wonderful country. Thanks.

Somewhere in Asia :)

By the looks of it, you are test-tasting concepts for a new "Appetzier-Restaurant" where everyone can use cryptocurrencies to pay with!?!

How far am I??? I bet it was an amazing gathering one way or another judging by your grins.

Namaste :)

3 Lovies I am fortunate to meet in person before. This means #tripletrouble for sure! Kevin is teaching both of you how to DJ at the next @steemfest that finally everybody will 💃dance.....💃💃💃

My 3 guesses would be:

  1. By creating this post, you're trying to crowdsource ideas that COULD potentially dictate a roadmap for enhancements/areas of opportunity for Steemit in the future.
  2. You are intentionally bringing 3 very prominent steemians together with VERY disparate views to understand what commonalities areas of interest all 3 share that could potentially help influence other current and potential new steemians to curate/evolve the community. Similar interests shared/discussed globally is a wonderful thing...especially given the political climate.
  3. All 3 of you are pooling your Steem Dollars together into one portfolio and strategizing your future investments into cryptocurrency.

Are you guys gonna invade space and take over the universe with your combined steem power? I'm sure @kevinwong will make a good theme/victory song for that! Steem Wars is coming... in peace!

You are discussing a proposition to fly The Last Sage to your location for a fine night of storytelling so that you can relax your exhausted brains and finally just drift of into relaxation.

You may also be discussing how to create a bot to analyze all of the posts made on steemit in order to determine the person with most likely potential to take over the world in a similar fashion to Dr. Evil so that you may side with said person.

Last guess is that I really had no idea as I am quite new to steemit but so far I am loving it and I just wanted to see if I could make you smile.

Peace,
The Last Sage

Smile accomplished!

  1. Hiding from the Facebook CIA department who want to make them disappear.
  2. They are not really there - it's a CGI Hoax.
  3. Planning on how to DDOS Synereo and other looming competitors.

Are they discussing how they can get Greece out of the evil clutches of the IMF by paying their debt with Steem, then making Steem the national currency of a Greece! Viva la Greece! 🇬🇷

Now that would be an epic solution to perpetual debt problems.

This is my second guess. You guys got together to create a new alt coin due to the collapse of Greek banks. If you need some ideas for the name of a coin here are some: spartacus coin, aristotle coin or plato coin. If anyone has ideas or likes the coin names let me know. Come on steemit, lets have a vote for the name of a new coin.

My third response is that someone is getting married and what better place than Greece. The inspiration comes from the movie my big fat greek wedding.

@onceuponatims...Trying to ignore the couple clearly in an lovers quarell behind you ::::yikes tense:::::

Upon greeting their eSTEEM'd colleagues, the three gentlemen shared STEEM'd vegetables and discussed their plans to monetize the Greek citizenry: every uttered statement, political opinion, and choice of clothing could be upvoted. Curate each other, curate an economy, curate the world!


That's what Phil Collins would like to say to this post

Why you tempt me???

In the tradition" "The reward for making a sacrifice is to be put in front of a temptation" :-)

There's a stage behind you. There's a screen on the stage. I can see alcohol on the table. Putting the clues together it's pretty clear what we're looking at here: Karaoke!

You're looking at launching a new crypto token: Karaokekoin! The hopeful and the talented will upload their karaoke exploits to Steemit (please don't blame me if this actually happens!). Those with the most upvotes will be able to mint their own tokens on Karaokekoin representing a fixed share of their future earnings (I am giving this way too much thought). Songs are written. Superstars are born. World domination is assured!

My first guess is that they are trying to market Steem, SBD & Steemit in a new an refreshing way... There with the above photo I would say this is Team Steem preparing themselves for the EXTREME IRONING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP...

Rumor has it that a restaurant server heard them say "our new motto is... We're bringing the Steem!"

I just came to read the comments ;-)

Is it a plan for worldwide steemit domination?

Deciding to buy an island and make steem the only currency at there.

Just bought the island and celebrating that.

Oh my god they are on the island!
