Dear fellow Steemians!

Welcome back to the sixth weekly report of the Steemit Challenge Season 24, which marks the final week. This report is proudly brought to you by Team Wordsmiths.

This was the final week of the challenge, and while many participants did a great job, a few still made some mistakes by not following the rules properly.

We found three entries that were below the minimum requirement of 500 words, and one entry that exceeded the maximum limit of 900 words. We also found one entry without a country tag. Because of these issues, they lost some marks, which could have been avoided if they had read the rules more carefully.

There were no cases of plagiarism, but this time we found a few entries with AI detectors showing some AI-generated content percentages. We did not notify the participants (due to low percentages) but deducted marks accordingly.

As far as I know, no one questioned our moderation remarks this week. We did our best to point out both the good and the bad in their posts in a way that was helpful and respectful.

Total Entries

That being said, we are still very happy with how this week turned out. We received a total of 35 entries, which is a decent response.

Pensó que se iba a desmayar cuando al salir, vuelve a encontrarse con las paredes manchadas de su humilde casa, sin nadie más en el hogar. Tenía que ser una pesadilla, no podía estar pasándole aquello. Corre al laboratorio y comienza a rebuscar en todos los cajones, alguna información tenía que encontrar. En su desespero, casi pasa por alto que ese lugar estaba lleno de polvo y abandonado… Como era posible si apenas habían pasado más de cuatro días. Al pasar por un espejo, se quedó de piedra, el hombre que reflejaba tendría al menos 40 años más, parecía que vestía harapos y como mínimo, tendría par de días sin comer...

He closed his eyes. Did he even have the right to manipulate the past? To play the role of world watchmaker?

But an image forced itself upon him, his grandfather, hunched over his notebooks, muttering in the dim laboratory light. He wasn't here by accident.

He nodded.

"Send me."

The machine activated. The humming returned, deeper and more intimate. He felt his body stretching, compressing, like a long-awaited note.

And then there was silence.

He woke up in an alley, in the rain, in Singapore. Surveillance drones circled overhead. He was still holding the metal box: Project Z, now reactivated, blinking slightly...

As the silver sky darkened, his grandfather grew quiet.

“Dineth… I need to tell you something important.”

Dineth looked up.

“This place won’t hold forever. It was never meant to. And you... you have to go back.”

“No,” Dineth said, tears already falling. “Not yet. Please.”

“You’ve been holding on too tightly, my boy. Letting grief become your purpose. But your life... it’s still ahead of you. You’ve got ideas that the world needs. You’ve got a heart that still wants to love.”

Dineth clutched his hand. “But how do I live in a world without you?”

His grandfather smiled. “By remembering that I never truly left. Everything you need is already inside you. You came looking for a goodbye... but what you really needed was permission to move forward.”

The light began to return.

“Remember what I always told you, science only explains how. Love reminds us why.”

Dineth woke up in his room. No shaking walls. No glowing box. Just silence, and a soaked pillow...

Sí. Se murió por una indigestión. Fue que se comió un plato de frijoles negros que amanecieron fuera del refrigerador. Se los comió con leche y al rato escuchamos que hubo una explosión y se sintió un fuerte olor a pólvora. Pues mi abuelo había muerto sentado en el sanitario.

Al parecer fue un hombre brillante.

Tras una breve pausa, el muchacho preguntó:

¿Y a qué se dedican los habitantes de este mundo?

Somos seres inmortales y nos dedicamos a estudiar el universo...

Convencido de que todo lo que estaba aconteciendo era real, Dineth lee las instrucciones del Proyecto Z que le dejó don Pedro y, en ese momento se entera que desde que falleció su amado abuelo, Clyde ha estado buscando los datos necesarios que permitirán la ejecución del plan y, de esta manera se evitaría que el planeta Tierra sea destruido en el año 2050 por los estragos que propicia el Cambio Climático y Calentamiento Global. Mientras viajaban en el tiempo para llegar a la época previa a la industrialización, Dineth recopila los datos que emite el prototipo y, al aplicarlos con sus conocimientos, obtener una fórmula química que ayude a evitar la emisión del humo de las máquinas industriales que estaban por crear...

Dineth y su abuelo se abrazaron fuertemente en ese mundo paralelo, poco a poco el mundo se volvió normal, se dio cuenta que estaban caminando en una especie de bosque, su abuelo le contó que allí había vida eterna y todos los hombres de su familia que amaban la ciencia estaban allí... Dineth camino con su abuelo hasta una cabaña, un lugar fascinante, un laboratorio totalmente moderno, lleno de humanos y de robot, todas las personas que estaban allí tenían sus mismas pasiones, todos amaban la ciencia, todos estaban felices y lo recibieron con mucha emoción...

In conclusion, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Steemit team for granting us this valuable opportunity and for placing their trust in us. It has been a truly rewarding experience, and we gave our utmost effort to meet their expectations.

This journey has not only allowed us to grow individually and as a team, but also deepened our connection with the Steemit community. We are proud to have contributed to the platform’s ongoing success and evolution.

Should we be given the chance again in the future, we would gladly step forward with the same passion and commitment to help Steemit reach even greater heights. Together, we can continue to build something meaningful and bring lasting recognition to this incredible platform.
