RE: 50 Word Story Contest... Week #10... Milestone Week....Bigger Rewards For New Steemians...Guest Judge..1000 Trail Coins and 30 Steem To Be Won

Duh. I should have read the instructions more carefully. I thought that there was a requirement to use the weekly word in the story so did so both times I entered..

Better luck next time! Now you know all the rules :D

You have to write your story around the word of the week

Around the word of the week. Exactly what does that mean?

I had assumed that you'd use the word itself in the story, and did so. But in the three actual rules, there's nothing about writing around the word, only to include it as a tag. Am I just dense and missing something that's obvious to everyone else?

Specifically, what about the verbiage after the three words? For this week, where it says You can write about an accessory/product, does that mean you must write about one of those two things? Or is the tag crown simply a code for Week #10, and the story can be about anything, even something unrelated to the word crown?

(I was third place last week and still don't have an Open Ledger account. What a slacker.)

Hello @preparedwombat

Your story should contain the word Crown or give a hint about it (you can say King), the winner of last week did not mention Mass, but the story hinted about it when Funeral was mentioned. i.e Funeral Mass.

Thanks for your patience and have a lovely day.Looking forward to your story
