Hello there! Welcome to our digital castle.

Whew.. Another week already? I swear.. Time is going so fast these days.
Okay so.. The next challenge.. Is.. Going to be focused around the subject of "music".

I think music is one of the most important ingredients in this recipe we call life.
Music helps people in so many ways, sometimes it even saves lives.. Many people credit certain songs or bands with helping them get through their hardest times..
So.. This is a challenge to celebrate music and the great musicians who help heal us with their music! :)

I preferably want original music you yourself created, BUT.. You can enter anything about the subject of music.
Could be a poem, could be a drawing or a painting or a music video of a song you really like on YouTube. Or perhaps you could write up an essay on what music means to you? It's really up to you.

We try to make these quests as open ended as possible and open to as many people as possible..
So while I will lean more towards original entries, that doesn't mean that's who will win.
The one who wins is the one who gets the most votes from the judges.

Also as a bonus for this round, whoever comes up with the best "jingle" for the IFC gets a bonus 3 XP and 5 SBD.
By jingle you know like.. A little quick song sort of thing that you would see on a commercial or radio advertisement or something like that!

Also hopefully we can get @soundlegion in here to help guest judge this round since she's an amazing musician and is doing well here on steemit and is a friend of mine, however she's really busy, so we'll see! But I'm going to try to get her to help guest judge this round.

@bashadow suggested we should make this round last a bit longer than usual since it's demanding to make original music and I agree! This round will be 10 days total, 3 days past payout.

And now a moment for our sponsors!

First up is @ats-david who has helped greatly! If you appreciate this contest or just his efforts in general you may want to look into voting for him as a witness at @ats-witness, he does a lot of other cool things for the community as well!

Next is @timcliff who has similarly helped out the contest significantly and who is also a witness who does a lot for the community, so likewise if you appreciate the efforts you may want to vote for him as witness also!

I'd also like to thank @theguruasia who has pledged at least 20 steem to the second and third place prizes and he said he may even donate more.

And @nxtblg who has been regularly resteeming and upvoting our challenges which has been a big help!

Plus one other person who has been helping a lot who deserves some credit is @soundlegion who has also been upvoting the contests regularly.

And while not technically sponsors, we are working with those at #newbiegames and #newbieresteemday and they do a great service to the community so definitely check them out if you appreciate that, or if you're new.

For this challenge.. If there's a tie.. We will do another round to see who wins.

The winner will be decided by whoever gets the most votes.
The only people who can vote in a qualifying sense are myself and the judges I've selected and we will vote by leaving a comment on the submission that we like the most and say something like.. "I vote for this one" and a reason why we voted would be good too, but is not mandatory.

You have until this challenges post payout ends to submit your post. Though we do accept late entries if you get it in before all the judges vote.

The challenge will finish after 7 days when the post ends and provides its payout cycle and unless there is a tie, the winner will gain the steem, the XP and have a point to go towards their long term win. (minus the 25% for curation)
