Hello there! Welcome to our digital spaceship castle.

Hey again.
There sure were some fascinating entries in the last round! Glad we decided to go the Choose Your Own Adventure route, I learned a lt and enjoyed it.
I suggest you go take a read through some of the entries if you haven't. Some really thought provoking and interesting stuff!
That's one thing I absolutely love about this contest and community.. I so often learn new and intriguing things I never knew before.
That alone makes it worth it for me, though so many other things do as well especially the fact that people have fun and make new friends and on and on and on.. Even though times are a bit slow, this contest and community continue to surprise me in awesome and positive ways. :)
Oh by the way we got our first entry via email recently and it was a player from steem so not from Facebook or anyone else but it's still progress and it's helping me figure out how it will work, hopefully we can still get some players from elsewhere though if you have an issue with RC credits or whatever you can play via email if you want to.
I'm glad you are all joining me on this journey, as a group we can explore and learn new things and have fun and make new friends together! I'm excited to see where it all goes, and where we are going now is to the next round! Round six of season two!
The subject of our sixth quest is.. "Inspiration".
I think this is an important subject in general but especially for me right now as I've been looking for inspiration and have been researching the subject myself as well.
So what inspires you? I'd love to hear about it! And I'm sure others would as well. :D
You can make your entry about a person or people, a place or places, a thing or multiple things, or.. Combination of all those and more...
Could be your family or friends or someone you fell in love with or a famous person or an art form or something that happened in history or.. You could create something about inspiration itself. Your imagination is your limit. As long as it's about inspiration in some form or another.
Good luck Information Finders! I look forward to seeing what you have to share.
May we all hopefully inspire each other with this round and just in general into the future!
So far we have received support and 10steem from @underground and I have confirmed that @ats-david @krnel @timcliff @steemcommunity and @ura-soul will also be supporting us this season.
Underground, ats-david, krnel, timcliff, steemcommunity, and ura-soul are all witnesses, so if you support what we are doing here at the IFC please look into them and give them a vote for witness as well. By the way to vote for ats-david you should vote for his @ats-witness account.
Also it looks like @ecoinstar will donate 100 shares of steembasicincome to the winner of the grand prize!
And thanks to @bengy for delegating 25 steem. :)
A special thanks as well to @davemccoy and @newbiegames and @newbieresteemday who are not technically sponsors but we have worked with them in the past. Looks like newbiegames and newbieresteemday have been inactive for months though we still use their tags for the time being.
The challenge will finish after 7 days when the post ends and provides its payout cycle or when all entries have been submitted.
25% of the post payout goes to curation and after that what's left will now be split up 75% to the winner of the round and 25% to put towards building up the @ifc account.
For those who play via email.. This will be recorded and saved for you, and.. If you're unwilling to make your own steem account we will at some point be willing to convert it for you to whichever currency however.. Not for small amounts, you must earn at least 10 steem for us to take the time to do this for you.
