SteemFest³ has just kick off now. To add some additional fun to the event, @Steemitboard has prepared a simple and funny contest that will last for the whole duration of SteemFest³ in Kraków
Meet the Steemians Contest (MSC)
The contest is open to all SteemFest’s attendees and we made the participation process and rules as simple as possible.
1. Register at SteemFest
As soon as you have registered at SteemFest³ in Krakow, you can go to SteemitBoard website and type your name to access your board.
(Small tip: you can install the SteemitBoard Google Chrome Extension to speed up this process.)
You will notice there is a new SteemFest³ MSC tab. If you are a SteemFest attendee, this tab will be automatically selected when you go to your board.
The tab contains the avatar of all registered attendee and they will be all grayed and locked at the beginning of the contest.
2. Install the SteemFest app on your smartphone
 | The SteemFest mobile app is available for iPhone or Android |
Register yourself in the app by scanning your own QR code or entering your Steem username manually.
Once you have started the contest with one device, you will NOT be able to switch to another device! The first scan that you will do with a device will force you to continue the contest with the same device, so choose wisely the device you want to use for the contest if you have more than one smartphone and/or tablet!
There will be NO EXCEPTION to this rule, for whatever reason!
3. Meet the Steemians
Your goal is to meet as much steemians as possible and light up a maximum of badges among the ones available!
To do so, initiate a meeting with a new Steemians,
For the meeting to be valid:
- Scan his/her QR code.
- You will have to spend some time with your new friend.
A delay of at least2 minutesis required between 2 mutual scans. Use this time to get to know each others. - Ask your new friend to scan your own QR code.
Each time you meet someone (i.e. do a successful mutual QR code scan), both Steemians will get 1 MSC point and the related badge on both boards will light up and display as an unlocked avatar.
As there are more than 300 attendees, use can use the filter button at the right of the tab change how the list of attendees will be displayed
| My SteemFest friends | This will only show people you've already met |
| I need to meet them | This will show participants you have not met yet |
| SteemFest attendees | This is the default view that shows all participants |
4. The mysterious and valuable Special Attendees
Among the participants of SteemFest³, some of them are “special attendees” who will bring you more points (up to 115) if you meet them!
There are:
| Attendee(s) | Meeting value |
|---|---|
| 1 gold | 15 MSC points |
| 5 silver | 10 MSC points |
| 10 bronze | 5 MSC points |
However, no one knows who the “special attendees” are!
Therefore, it can be @ned or @roelandp, your best friend or even this guy/girl sitting alone at the bar and staring his/her glas. Go, meet that Steemian!
Note: A random number will be assigned to each attendee. @roelandp has also drawn 16 random numbers, encrypted them and stored them in this transaction.
@roelandp will provide us with the encryption key in another transaction when the contest is over. This way, nobody will know who are the special attendees while the contest is running.
Check your contest ranking
You will be able to check your ranking in real-time. To do so, click on the link at the top of the SteemFest³ MSC tab:
This will bring you to a dedicated page where the actual score of each participant will be displayed.
There is a handy search box which will allow you to find yourself quickly in the ranking.
Note: Points collected by meeting mystery people will not be displayed while the contest is running. They will be added after the contest has ended.
5. End of the contest
The contest will end on Sunday 11/11 at midnight, Krakow time.
The name of the “special attendees” will be revealed after SteemFest³.
6. The contest prize
The pool size is 2333.333 STEEM thanks to our generous sponsors:
A ranking based on the number of MSC points collected will be established and the prize pool will be split among participants using the following rules:
| Rank | Amount |
|---|---|
| 1st place | 15% of the prize pool |
| 2nd place | 10% of the prize pool |
| 3rd place | 5% of the prize pool |
| 4th place to 10th place | 2% of the prize pool |
The remaining of the prize pool (56%) will be split among all participants proportionally to the number of MSC points collected.
Example:
All participants (excluded the 10 top winners) together made 1000 mutual meetings
You got 34 MSC points (i.e. met 34 steemians)
You will receive 34/1000th of the remaining prize pool.
7. Contest Global Rules
Each QR scan point will be registered within the blockchain with a micro-transfer.
MSC point are granted when 2 mutual scan match and attributed in QR scan order
If user1 scan QR code of user2 before user2 scan QR code of user1, user1 will receive the MSC point before user2
In the event of a tie between players, the winner will be the one who first got the greatest amount of MSC points (verification based on confirmation transfer)

Nice one this... keep it for the next year too! =) Love this kind of games.
Really wish I could go. Perhaps next year. Would love to meet and thank you @arcange and others for all that you do.
Thank you for encouraging connections and getting to know one another. We would have done so anyway, but the contest reminded us to engage in conversation, and branch out beyond a few close connections. (And the idea of rewards is always nice!) Thanks @steemitboard.
