🎃 [ANN] Bitcointalk Bitcoin Pumpkin Carving Contest 🎃

[DaNNy001]

So far so good with the entries, and lots of Amazing works too. Trying to get the right pumpkin for my carvings but for some reasons it seems there is a little bit shortage of pumpkin over here in my region and  maybe it's due to the massive demand of pumpkin by Bitcoiners over here 😁😁

Dear ChiBitCTy,

I have a question here, can people who are new to the forum participate here. Nothing is said here about this matter. You will clear this point.
Because some new people have joined our local board for a while, can they participate if they want?

I think anyone can participate on this Bitcoin pumpkin carving contest @B2Z has already posted his final work and your rank is bigger than his/her's. However, as long as it is not included on the rules that from member rank below is not allowed to participate, it means that everyone can join the contest.

Happy Bitcoin Pumpkin Carving Contest

Actually I tried to see how to carve this pumkin as I have no prior experience, I searched on google and noticed the previous pumpkin carving contest so that I can carve pumkin easily. Finally it was successful so I am presenting it to you.

Here is my carved Pumpkin

I have seen uncommon ideas and creative arts. Maybe I could put in some work.

Happy Bitcoin Pumpkin Carving Contest- 2024

[xenomorfo]

There are some really beautiful pumpkins
How many can you present? just one or even more than one? I don't think i understood this part

in any case, a really nice contest, in Italy we don't have this tradition so i think really don't think any italian can win

Hey all, been tied up last few days so will be reviewing all posts shortly.

But I wanted to announce a few things.. I want everyone to know this is all for fun and the love of btc with me. I am making absolutely nothing doing this contest (just fyi). We had a sponsorship interest from a reputable online btc casino so figured, hey why not..some great prize money BTCBTC

UPDATE:  winner will also get a non-funded CryptoImperator 1/2 oz fine silver bitcoin pumpkin coin..🪙 🎃 (how fitting!).




(Just realized I made a pumpkin corn penis 🤷‍♂️ )

Proceeds of the peeled .01 as well as others will go towards my charity auction this year. Three main things since so much has hit home w me this year in an unfortunate way.  First some funds will go to disaster relief in Tampa Bay (where I spent 6/7 years living). I lived down the street from Tropicana where the Rays play and where the BTC Bowl was held    I didn’t go , I think I just found out about btc 🥹..really want a tix stub for the game !! Anyways anyone who knows me well knows I’m an animal advocate activist..so the relief will be for dogs and cats mainly whom are displaced (the 3 kitties 🐈‍⬛ below are the ones I cared for when I lived there and the other two are ferals I care for now. Cats ALSO go quite well with the Halloween themed event here!  







Breast cancer and schizophrenia are two illnesses that are very close to home for me and my family and will use the other proceeds for those research causes.

Would love to see everyone participate in both!! Cheers !!

Congratulations and thank you for organising such a long awaited event ChiBitCTy (and icopress!).

It is great to know that proceeds will go to good causes, which definitely gives double merit to the initiative.

If you have no objection, in the AoBT we're willing to help raise more awareness for the event by translating and posting the info of the contest also in the local boards of the forum.

The last time Bitcoin Pumpkin Carving Contest was held in 2022 many people participated in the contest. As I have seen from the link mentioned above many members have submitted their entries multiple times.

Now, my small question to the honorable organizer of this contest is whether members can submit more than one entry in this contest as well.

No, only 1 entry per submission. Now it can included a few pumpkins/corn/squash as garnishes, but still all only counts as 1 submission

Dear ChiBitCTy,

I have a question here, can people who are new to the forum participate here. Nothing is said here about this matter. You will clear this point.
Because some new people have joined our local board for a while, can they participate if they want?

Absolutely!! Part of the initiative here is to bring more people to btalk. (Thanks to the Reddit mods who allowed me to post about this on Reddit, which normally would be deleted due to having a link, I believe).

While new members are more than welcome , really hoping Theymos lends me a hand like last time so that new accounts can’t be used to manipulate voting (some coding stuff implemented in voting process that I don’t understand, but know it’s pretty great for contest voting).

Edit - still going through to answer all questions. I’m working rn so bear with me folks, I will get to your questions!!

If I had not participated in this contest, I would not have understood that something can be made by carving a pumpkin in such a way.  
Thanks to @ChiBitCTy and @BC.Game for coming up with such a great contest.

Thanks ChiBitCTy for organizing this wonderful event; it is my first time participation in the "Happy Bitcoin Pumpkin Carving Contest." Pumping curving is actually not as easy as it sounds while creating it takes so much time

Happy BTC Pumpkin Craving Celebration

[taufik123]

Was thinking of a pumpkin carving that was different from the others and had never been made.
This will be a new challenge for me

[cygan]

@ChiBitCTy @theymos will there actually be a pumpkin gadget/icon 🎃 for the winners, which will then appear under the username in the avatar?
like the winners of the pizza competition... would definitely be worth considering and would certainly look nice too

🎃 Happy Bitcointalk pumpkin carving contest.🎃

Trying to carve a pumpkin with the Bitcoin Logo is actually a little difficult if you don't have the skills, but this is my own result of this pumpkin carving contest.

HODL = Stay HODL
BTC = Our pride
📈 = Signaling bitcoin will be bullish.
