Season 1 of the IFC has officially come to a close and we all anxiously await the judges final decisions. In the meantime it appears we have another tie-breaker round to complete. The competition has been fierce and fun has been had by all. The original contest for Round 34 was posted on 5/12/18 and the Results were posted on 5/31/18. Our mission should we choose to accept it: Travel in time, it’s that simple but with one caveat. We are to work our opponent into our story. This should be epic! It is my pleasure to travel in time and meet up with 
I have chosen once again to travel BACK in time. This time my goal is not to save lives but is of a more selfish nature. Now I am travelling back in time to win Round 34 and as an added bonus I get to meet
in real life. For this trip I will be leaving the family behind as I don’t expect this to take too long. Here are the items I will be taking with me:• My iPhone – I’m pretty sure the service will work as I’m not going back in time very far.
• My laptop – Fully prepped with a backup document of my Round 34 entry.
• Two cases of Dark Rum – One half case has been emptied and filled with Pepsi (More on this later and sorry if you’re a Coke fan.)
• My newly invented Xj47 Time Loop Disruptor and Return Belt Buckle (This is how I will return to the present.)
That should about do it, let’s get ready to travel back in time…
May 11th 2018 - It was a cold and rainy day as I awoke to a gentle breeze caressing the side of my face (Not really sure what the weather was like on this day, that was like 3 weeks ago for crying out loud.) After my morning hygiene routing I opened up my iPhones time travel app to check the date that I had set from the night before. Perfect, it looks like I landed on the right date and I see that the apps built in booking feature has scheduled my flight for later today to the beautiful green shores of Ireland. I can’t wait to visit the country of my ancestry since I have never been there before. Shortly after arriving I realize I have absolutely no idea where I am going but luckily for me I’ve read The Compleat Sherlock Holmes multiple times throughout my life and therefore have significantly higher than normal deductive skills. I trace down the home of Jan deep in the hills of Cork County and as I approach I notice the home is built directly into the side of a hill. The dwelling looks faintly familiar but I can’t place it. I walk up the path to the front door which is round and looks as if I would have to duck to enter. Then it hits me, this looks like Bilbo Baggins home in The Shire. I knock at the door and a tall slender gentleman greets me and damn, he looks just like Liam Neeson (I did not expect that). He immediately recognizes me (I’m always posting pictures of myself and my family and shit so that’s no surprise) and welcomes me warmly. I ask him if he’s a Hobbit fan and he replies “Feck no, I hate those hairy footed peckers.” We talk late into the night of many things including cryptocurrency, Steemit and soccer. Then I pull out the two cases of dark rum and he procures two of his finest brandy snifters and I start pouring us drinks. He thinks that I am just having a bit o’ the relapse but little does he know that I am drinking from one of the rum bottles I’ve filled with Pepsi. I find some time to pull out my laptop and copy and paste my Round 4 post onto Steemit then return to the joviality. We spend the next 7 days getting smashed (really just him) and finally I announce that it is time for me to leave. We shake hands as my taxi cab pulls up to the door. Upon my return home I am excited to pull up the results knowing full well that Jan did not get his entry in due to what will always be remembered as “The Great Dark Rum Bender”. I pull up the results and grin wide already starting to celebrate my win. There it is in black and white:

I did NOT see that coming. Looks like I’ll need to set the app back another week. At least I won’t need to pack my belt buckle. Does anybody know where I can pick up a few cases of Satoshi Berry wine?
