Hello there! Welcome to our digital castle.

Here we are at round 10!
I'd say the contest has been going along pretty amazingly so far, however.. There have been a few small issues here and there.. And.. The subject of this challenge will be dealing with one of those issues.
As some of you know, our last round was about finding a sponsor for our contest, and.. While the judges have not all officially voted on that and picked the winner yet.. We did already get at least one very gracious and significant donor that is going to help vote for some of the contest rounds in the future.
That person is @ats-david and if you appreciate this contest or just his efforts in general you may want to look into voting for him as a witness, he does a lot of other cool things for the community as well!
Before I get on to the quest, 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!
Also one other person who has been helping a lot who deserves some credit is @soundlegion who has also been upvoting the contests.
If there's anyone I missed who is regularly and often helping the contest and if you would like credit please let me know and I'll give you a mention as well! I think it's important to mention the sponsors and contributors and I even think we should have a round in the future that somehow is centered around the idea of celebrating the people who help donate to this IFC contest. And if you yourself would like to donate in some way, feel free to let me know!
Alrighty, so.. Since this competition is still very new and we're still growing a lot, I think the most important quest I can send you on is one to try to bring more players to compete in the IFC. Last time was finding a sponsor which helped IMMENSELY, now the players can be rewarded a LOT more.. But, I think the thing that would help the tournament the most at this point is to find more competitors who are willing to play in the actual championship itself.
Your mission this time is to create the best blog post to bring more players to play in the game! You can use whatever techniques you want, like.. You could write up an article, or make a YouTube video, or whatever you'd like.. Really the limit is your imagination and creativity and time you're willing to put into it.
Also, you may want to remind people in your post that we just started a "catch up" round yesterday which is open to anyone who hasn't leveled up or won a game yet, and that would be a good challenge to enter in for beginners I think as well. Link to that "catch up" round will be below.

The rules are..
You must create your own blog post on your page in regards to the challenge with a title mentioning the specific contest, IE something like.. "Information Finding Championship - Season 1 : Round 10 entry" and then link it here on this page in the comments below. And you also have to use the #informationfinding tag in your blog post as well.
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.
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, level up and have a point to go towards their long term win. (minus the 25% or so for curation)
Also.. For anyone interested I want to remind you that we now have a discord channel set up which should make a lot of this easier and more organized! If you'd like to chat or get more diverse and efficient information on the IFC, you can join us at this link.
If you are new and want to know more about how the contest works in general, this link may help that explains the Information Finding Championship in more detail.
