It is now Day 3 of the Daily Steemit Selfie Challenge!
Our registered players are competing against each other in an elimination endurance contest where their selfies must be posted on a daily basis and must meet the theme qualifications. Not only must they post their qualifying selfies prior to the deadline to avoid elimination, they are also competing against one another for bonus points. In each round, I will reward at least two selfies with bonus points.
BONUS POINTS FOR DAY 2
On Day 2, the players had to take a selfie with a live animal. We had some amazing entries, but a few stuck out above the rest. I have awarded the following photos each 1 Bonus Point, which will be converted to SBD and paid out later on in the contest. As always, have fun and get creative, but above all, be safe!

@rheda
THE ELIMINATED
As always, this is to the best of my knowledge. If you believe that you replied to the Day 2 post with a qualifying entry prior to 11:15 am (CST) today, then let me know. Perhaps I did miss something. As far as I know, though, these players have been eliminated.

DAY 3 : FIRE
For Round 3, all you have to do is take a selfie with some real fire in the photo. You do not have to light yourself on fire like I did, just have a flame (or even a bigger fire) in the selfie. BE SAFE!
Reply to this post with your qualifying selfie by 11:20 am (CST) to avoid elimination. As always, no entry post is required, but you are free to make a post featuring your entry if you want to. By entering this contest you are giving me full permission to use your entries in future contest posts. Thanks and have fun!
PRIZE POOL
The current prize pool is 100 SBD, not including Bonus Points. It will continue to grow on a daily basis! That means that the longer you hang in there, the larger it gets!
Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com

Hope you find this unique, I had steem coming out of my ears from trying to come up with an idea!
I had to think really hard tp come up with this
I never claimed to be an artist....
Or a welder....
Just a kid at heart!
I second the cool part.....not bad for someone that never claimed to be a welder. If I tired that it would look like a doctor signed something....with a torch.
LOL Thanks!
That's pretty damn cool!
Thank ya, sir! 😁
very cool!!
Thank you!
do not know how much postage is going to be for such a big chunk of metal though...we should fund this with upvotes so you can send this piece of art to @papa-pepper and he can hang it somewhere on his homestead, that would be cool
That's a really cool idea, I'm just not sure he would want something like this hanging around rusting on his property lol. Thanks for the suggestion and upvote!
if so we can see if we can upvote the post enough to pay for the stamps and send it to you...
If not, thats all right as well@papa-pepper if the community would send you this potentially rusty piece of art would you like it?
Wow brother this is really exceptional how can anyone ever match this? Tons of work and talent here well done. My vote goes to you for all the bonus points on this one. Cheer$:)
Why thank you so much for your kind words, I can only hope the big pepper himself enjoys it as much!
Ye you got this one for sure hes going to dig it . Thats tons of work. Great skill Cheers $;)
This just win already! 👏👏👏 Pretty cool!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your support!
Now that is thinking outside of the box and awesomely cool
Thank ya sir, I really appreciate it!
Your welcome :)
Thank ya sir, I really appreciate it!
Gahh this is the 3rd time i have tried to post this comment... and i dont know why its turned sideways ether..
https://steemit.com/selfiechallenge/@deadgrlsuppastar/selfie-challenge-3-by-papa-pepper-selfie-with-fire-20171011t142319103z
it kinda looks like you are breathing in the flame, even on its side its a selfie with fire... I do not doubt that @papa-pepper will accept it
Thanks.. i had the ac in the car going i think that is what bent the flame!!
It does the flipping on the side for me occasionally but have no idea why
I dont know. Esteem did not want to post it either.
Yeah sometimes it plays up could be many things
Most people stopped smoking in the company. Fortunately (for me), one guy did not. So, I was able to borrow his lighter.
You have everything at the company!! :)
Well, you didn't say we couldn't set ourselves on fire so.....
WOAH how did you do that?
I lit myself on fire.
:-)
You remind me of Dominic purcel in legends of tomorrow.
I AM NOT KIDDING when I tell you I just now watched the new season opener of the show. LMAO
I was literally watching while you were writing this.
I had a feeling that you would come up with something cool, nice job! You're making it tough on me man! Lol
Thanks brother.....if it was easy, everyone would do it. LOL
In fairness, this is what i do for a living these days. Normally It looks like this.
Awe man... who took the photo though? Supposed to be a selfie.
Amazing shot, but can you redo it?
The set up I used.
Ahhhhh @papa-pepper ......10 second timer on my samsung S5, sitting on top of my big blue flip top garbage can (hence me having to look up at it) , sitting on a slightly leaking sandbag.....that it kept falling over on (this was the 6th try). LOL
Didn't think it needed to be in my hand since it looks like a lot of folks set their phones or cameras on something. But if it has to be in ones hand, I can totally shoot it again. I just wanted to do both arms. I'd just swap to one if I have to hold it....and of course it'd be during the day tomorrow so it won't look as good. ;-)
Got it. Fully qualified! Plus... looks like you may be in line for bonus point. Thanks!
Just trying to get in the spirit my brother....and emulate the papa picture. LOL
Well and fire was right up my alley.
Just lemme know brother pepper.
I took a look at your page after we were talking last night and saw where you were a stuntman and thought "I bet he will come up with something good, I better think outside the box." You didn't disappoint, you have the best "fire to body" picture hands down!
I try brother, I try. LOL
You're good to go. It's in!
🔥HOT DAMN!🔥@stuntworksinc✌💯
Wanted to use this one, but I thought @papa-pepper might hit me with a DQ since it isn't technically a selfie.
In my defense, it's pretty hard to take a selfie when this is what's going on.
Bwahahahah! Even Storm Troopers need a little R&R!
Affirmative. I'm a big deal in the resistance!
You are a big deal!
Game over.
Lol love it 😂
love it!
Love!!! it!!!
Goodness! I love this!
Wow impressive brother. Nice one whilst still snapping the cam that must have taken some practice. Cheer$:)
Yes..it's too difficult for me to take that fire selfie..i can't look my phone while doing it!
Thanks @craigcryptoking
I have taken 7 selfies but this 2 are the best lol :)
I graciously bow... epic shot
Thank you sir i appreciate your support..
Wow!
Encore!
Hahaha...too difficult to take the selfie..😁😁
you deserve bonus point for being hardcore
i would be very happy for that!
But only papa knows.. :)
I am the light of the world..
Goodluck to everyoneThank you @papa-pepper
@xtrdnrymompreneur
That is a great idea, very cool.....or you're hellspawn. Whichever.
A little of both @stuntworksinc
Are you sure that fire is not radiating from your eyes?
Another creative entry! Love this :)
Thank youuu!!!
I may have just lit your match, Cheer$;)
That could be worth a bonus point!
Hehehe awwww Cheers mate ;)
He deserves the bonus points indeed for his creativity with you photo in the background.
I really missed this contest,hope there will be a similar one soon(i like selfies!)
Ahh cheer$ mate appreciate that ;)
Ahhh, good one!

HAha thats a really good one man awesome

My head is on fire..

My day 3 selfie challenge..
Relax! Stop thinking so hard.
Dang, bro! Fire on your hand?! That's savage. 😲
I played with many things on fire before I decided on this little ol'stick of incense.
No edits (besides decreasing size and putting two next to each other).
First one, the sun was coming in behind me weird and I looked too emo. So I took a second one as a consolation. I know how much y'all are ACHING to see my face. 🤣
![selfie contest day 3.png](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1507746826/jx7k4wbdug7w6zekwj3y.png)
Haha nice one @carrieallen do you use that incense to light your bong too? Cheer$;)
and then took a selfie with it...
well @papa-pepper this one raises the bar... so I raised your challenge and put steem on fire
made a small post about it in case anyone is so kind as to want to upvote it
https://steemit.com/challenge/@photolander/todays-entry-for-the-papa-pepper-daily-selfie-challenge-fire
Good one.
thanks, I really want one of those bonuspoints, lol
the things we do for bonuspoints...
LOL i totally get it. i was thinking the whole time what i could do creatively and i couldn't come up with anything. i hope you get the bonus points.
We don't even know what they are yet, BUT I WANT ONE!
Encore!
on essaye
Awesome creativity
thanks but the competition is getting really high and there are a lot of participants really raising the bar here. This is turning out to be one hell of a contest
Ohh yes some of the selfi are brilliant
Mine pale in comparison I need to step up my game let’s see what today brings
Guaranteed bonus point for creativity right there! Congratulations!
Thank you and I'm in this challenge again. Here's my Entry. Challenge #3. Fire.
Hahahahhaa nawala ang poise...
Here is my one for today, and I just want to say no Sheep or Kiwis for that matter were harmed n making this shot :)![IMG_0154.jpeg](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmNySPGi8opoFGEwjMstTre5Xgtq7oPiejpBDpmhsQc47y/IMG_0154.jpeg)
5 days short of a year ago I gave up smoking and used to have lighters laying around everywhere, but couldn’t find one so had to get one from the shop, my Childress sense of humor liked this one
haha love it
Thanks, I had other ideas in MInd but buying lighter fluid and starting a controlled fire on my desk may not have gone down well either at work or at home lOL
Haha yes I think that is a safe assumption lol so good even more then
LOL on one of these challenges i will get creative, at least thats what I keep telling myself
Thats the attitude!
Thanks 🙏
For sure!! Lighter rules!!
Indeed let’s see what challenge today brings 😎
Glad you were both safe!
Yes indeed it was risky but we survived LOL
hahaha good going!!
Thanks 😎
Well done Bucky!
Thanks @ecoinstant
LOL man that's madness, madness I tell ya.
I can't tell you how many times I have accidentally lit my beard on fire. Its a lot. Well done for keeping it whole today.
Lol you don't have to tell us we can see.. hahaha .. nice one matey! Cheer$:)
Oh wait my bad I thought that was @dwells comment.. hehe, but I can imagine it can't be too pleasant!
As long as you put it out fast enough it only smells funny.
Oh, oh, oh I'm on fire...........
Well, not really ;-)
It is that time of year around here!!
![005.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmf1c8NB64XVKHg4VQSJGP2LguqQJb2coWpEDhxoVasJTL/005.jpg)
That is the face that keeps the fire in my heart!
Day 3 @papa-pepper contest
What do I love about having a gas stove that produces real fire? Easy, that is heating stone bowls for bibimbap on it :) Yum Yum.
![IMG_4765.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmPkcEFEUkQVVscfX3q1oYnt4kaDS7aMtpxEGsBjc4g71N/IMG_4765.JPG)
That looks such a cool bowl, I have no idea what bibimbap is, or didnt I have a Korean Colleague and now know :)
It is really delicious. Now that you know you should try it. Super yummy :)
I will he has been trying to convince me to go to lunch with him to a Korean restaurant I do like there food so maybe I will after my next weight loss goal
Ooh definitely! Believe it or not if you skip the rice with most things the meals are not usually that oil heavy or overly fattening. Kimchi is a great side dish and probiotic for the gut as well 😀
That’s greta to know thanks
Maybe I will shock him and say lets do it next week
You look lovely here!
Thank you very much :)

Here's my entry :)
Ran out quickly to get a lighter.![IMG_0032.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://steemitimages.com/DQmUTUwKZQUzn8MfpKb7AUq5jEbFyP4jr2GZJHCJ7CUe1cP/IMG_0032.JPG)
fire selfi contest
getting it in early - forgetting things is my thing :)
going to be traveling and we shall see if I manage to keep going...
Nice trellis back there! Hang in here Marianne!
Thank you! It is the unfinished roof over the cob pizza oven. I was going to do a thatched roof but am out of energy for that project for now :(
Very cool! My wife @ecoinstante wants to make an oven for the farm so very much. We have a lot of cobb materials ready for our ecodome plaster, is it very hard to make a cobb oven? Would you/could you/should you recommend to me some free plans?
We did it as part of a permaculture design class. Let me look in my books for a plan on how to plan the dimensions and such. If I remember right, the opening is 1/3 the size of the dom.
My kids want us to build a bigger one and I would love to figure out how to connect it to a rocket stove. I have seen one picture and I think there is somebody in LA who has build one. I don't know anyone personally. That requires way less wood and burns much cleaner.
Let me gather all my materials (pics and books and such) together next week and write a post about our built.
Are you familiar with Permies.com? I bet there are tons of people on there with all kinds of build experiences.
And do you have a lot of land? I have shaman/permaculture friends who do workshops south of here (can't remember which country). Maybe you can host them and make sure they build you an oven as part of the deal :)
Start thinking how big of a pizza and/or how many breads you want to do at a time..... that will dictate your plan.
Hey I made this guide based on your question!
I can't wait for your post! We do have land, a lot is relative but it is a lot to us and there is plenty of room for tents! We have limited beds, 6 right now and 2 or 3 stay full ;p
We have thought of hosting a gathering but haven't been sure where to start, certainly there is always so much fun work to do ;p
I have often browsed permies but not much since I found steemit. I have tons of pdf about rocket heaters/stoves/others and dream about building one one day! Everything ends up connecting in homesteading/permaculture/sustainability, thats why it is a worthy lifelong pursuit. c:
Love this!
Almost on my face @papa-papper ... I like the challenge ... 👍
What are you burning there? @ironshield
Looks like homework!
Good question.
Burning my daughter's school planner. 😱 She just doesn't belong there. We're bringing her home. 🙂![C360_2017_10_11_13_24_59_091](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://preview.ibb.co/dbJSYw/C360_2017_10_11_13_24_59_091.jpg)
Stick it to the man! And save the children for the love of God ;p
YEAH!!! I just posted about my decision on my blog actually. ;) https://steemit.com/homeschool/@snowpea/bringing-her-home
Oooh will check this out. I am generally pro-education and anti-school.
Maybe I'm just anti-edifice because I feel similarly about faith vs. church.....
My post may be a little strange in some parts lol. Still working out this whole blogging thing and choosing the right words and what not lol. Have you heard of the house church movement? It's as anti-edifice as they come. I visited one about an hour away a few times and it was refreshing to see just people- no institution.
Wow! I hadn't heard of that, but it sounds great.
I am leveling up my writing here as well! Keep at it ;p
My “go to” when we lose power!
Well since we ate tonight and I had to make a fire in our braai place what better than to have some march-mellows at the same time:)
I enjoy March-mellows this time of year because I always prefered them stale since Lucky Charms as a kid! ;p
I love them all year round ;)
#Day 3: Fire
THANK YOU for this, today is my lucky day! I wanted to burn something soo badly, I hate those days in month so I have a little fun with the daily liner (because I need the big ones now :D )
I love this one as I had to set something ablaze.
![image](https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://img.esteem.ws/qj78p4t7a4.jpg)
Making my morning coffee! Usually use a small fire but took one with big fire first to make it more visible.
Day 3 Here we go!

I'm going for the maniacal arsonist look.
