outdone themselves and announced a VERY SPECIAL EVENT!

and now to divulge the mystery shadow maker. here it is at last
congratulations to all participants. here everyone is a winner! before we get to the prize ceremony i've got to take a shower and don some proper attire. meanwhile it is a great pleasure to introduce this week's judges
i was out of cake so when i heard these bank mynas could talk i figured i could ask them to judge for just a few crumbs. and indeed they were at least as helpful as those last ones. so this time everyone was happy. by the way, i heard those girls tried to call me asking for more cake but since i lost my phone i couldn't answer. in norway we have a saying which translates: never so bad that it is not good for something!
this week we had a new situation where several people guessed correctly. normally it is only right and reasonable that the first one gets the main prize- 3 HIVE. but this time in addition to answering correctly, one of the late guessers added some insightful humor to the comment that got the 3 mynas clucking, croaking and whistling so much that we are splitting the HIVE. other late but correct guesses are rewarded with points and a rehive nomination, which, if lucky can prove to be more valuable than the main prize.
so without further ado here are the winners
2 HIVE to @coininstant for: "That's your car door and steering wheel as the sun shines through your windshield!!" and yes it is my car
1 HIVE to @itsfall173 for:
"Yes, I really think the shadow you see is of a car, but that sticks out... It looks like a rifle with a bayonet... :)
I think it's you waiting for someone to come out of that forest with your phone, but... Relax man, take it easy!
I know that losing your phone with so much 'sensitive information' is terrible, but violence is not necessary :)"
50 points each to
@anaclark for: "That’s an invisible man fighting people off from stealing his sandwich (can be seen in photo) with his sword. I like his snazzy hat."
@cesarisaad for: "He is a member of the Gangrene Gang, one of the villains of The Powerpuff Girls animated series 😎" followed by a cool meme which i was unable to copy but you can find it among the original post replies
40 points each to:
@nineclaws for: "This looks like the rare and elusive floating unicorn car. 😄"
@atlantiss for: "That is unicorn's shadow. That pointy thing is his horn"
30 points and a rehive nomination to:
@jearo101 for: "Yeah! It's obviously a shadow of a car. The shadow is explained like this, front door at the right is opened, side mirror, steering wheel, windshield and a car toy hanging.😁"
@femcy-willy for: "Its the front of car with stirring and probably air fresher hanged on the front also the car's door is opened"
30 points each to
@dinglehopper for: "Maybe that pointy thing is a wiper?"
@ducky28 for: "Looks like a shadow of someone wearing rectangular glasses with a sharp triangular pointy earring."
that's it, a big thanks to all. i hope you appreciate this week's judges as much as i did but if you have any complaints they will be happy to hear them for a few crumbs. no cake required.
don't forget there's already a new contest going on here:
https://ecency.com/hive-179017/@eolianpariah/announcing-the-9th-guess-the
there's a new prize available- the venwood prize for the most fantastical answer but to win that will require more than just a one-liner reply.
it wouldn't be right to close without mentioning our generous sponsors:
@hive-179017 and @ecency @taskmanager @pixresteemer and @galenkp
Woohoo!
Congratulations to everyone. This is a funny contest.
so nice to have you participating
Thank you. I’ve been trying to participate with Shadow Hunters for a very long time, but I kept forgetting to take photos of shadows. That’s quite peculiar since shadow photography has always been something I’ve loved and do.
I think I did submit one photo over a year ago. My community activity on Hive has improved lately, and I’m less self absorbed into my own blog.
I think that Hive isn’t adequately understood until the community aspect is realized.
Thanks again!
Congratulations @coininstant and all the other winners!
And thank you @eolianpariah!!!
I really did not expect this result :) I arrived almost late and I already saw answers that seemed correct to me, but I had a lot of fun putting my imagination into it, and with what you said about your lost phone it almost made me laugh when I answered! (Although I hope you find it!)
What has made me laugh a lot has been to imagine those three mynas clucking, croaking and whistling :)
i had a good laugh reading your post as well despite my sour mood for losing my phone
Thank you for the points sir!😊
Congrats to all the winners! I laughed so much reading the guesses by @coininstant and @itsfall173. 😆
I appreciate the points, thank you! This has become my favourite guessing contest, whether I enter or not. There's so much fun to be had.
there's no more fun in life than that which you make yourself
