Greetings my friends of the beautiful world of Steemit!
I know all the amazing foodies here have been eagerly waiting for some news on the 2nd Act of Steemit Iron Chef 2018!
Before writing further, I would like to first apologise for the delay in the launch, as you must have surely noted, I started a new job here and I have been so busy since!
Anyway, SIC is so dear to me and so loved by everyone participating, that at a certain moment I was even looking for someone else to take over the organisation of the contest!
I did get a lot of awesome foodies willing to run the contest on my behalf and I am so grateful to all of them...Thanks so much guys!
But...
After analysing the situation and also after receiving some messages from my fellow friends...I have decided to run SIC myself in the interest of the contest itself!
I was also so embarrassed to pick and choose one from the lot to run the contest...
SIC has been my baby and will always be...So I believe I must be the one running the contest at any cost!
So voila guys, my final decision is that I will keep running the contest despite my tight schedule...
I have drafted some new rules that will be applied for the 2nd act, these will be shared with you all in the coming days...
These new rules are here to make sure that the quality of the entries are of top level...Michelin star level I will dare to mention...SIC must be the flagship of all online cooking contest...not only on Steemit!!!
We already have a very high level in terms of food presentation from so many contestants...but I want to keep on progressing...
ACT 02 kick off date : 01st JUNE 2018
As usual all the different rounds will be of surprising themes, stay tuned for these!
In the meantime, if you wish to contribute to the reward pool or be a sponsor of the contest, Kindly let me know in the comment section below!
You are the most welcomed!
If you have any questions, just let me know, I'll be happy to clear things out!
So stay tuned for the rules which will be out in couple of days and start preparing yourself for the big launch on Friday 01st June 2018!
Steem On!
