The year is ending & no sign of the results. Looks like the jury panel is still cooking (and eating!) its way through the tons of recipes which were submitted for the contest

Initially, I thought of not participating as I thought yeh to hardcore food bloggers will win. Then I thought of adding an entry, with a dash of fun and made 2-3 dishes plus singled down one juice..end up submitting only one. As I am an anemic and ran low on energy  But am happy that I did something :) [Hmph Hmph]

Now popping multi-vitamins and rushing to do disaster management at the kitchen. 

BTW, bahut khana ban gaya, anyone wanna come over for a meal? :)

Great show Team #Indiblogger! BNLF and the contests.

I finally gave my creative best and submitted. 2 hours before deadline for a change than the last minute :)

Thought of giving up in the middle when I saw some really professional entries from chefs, food bloggers etc

But I figured , why not give my best and even if I lose, not to give up with a fair fight :P

Thank God there has been an extension... I was out of Delhi this weekend and obviously wasn't able to submit my usual 'last minute' entry. :)

I was quite busy last days and kept delaying my post. Finally started at 11:30 pm and submitted at 12:05 am 20th Nov, feeling extremely bad for being late...

But then....voila!!!   last date has been extended...feeling awesome...thanks Indiblogger team and Livogen.

If I recall correctly, entries for a contest were always hidden and revealed only after the closing time. This contest is an exception, or is it now the norm for all contests to show the entries right from the start? 

Renie Ravin

Hey Vandana, yes, this is the new norm, we intend to show the entries right from the start!

Extension is when tension is an ex-... but then don't most of us write and upload in the final five hours or so? Tension toh har baar rahega... extension, however, depends entirely on the Indi team and the sponsor. :)

Oh my God. This just felt as if the facts we're just washed down upon my soul, leaving me laughing at the sheer audacity of it. I commend you, oh great sir. This was the truth, veiled within the tiny senses of humor. Let's just write our hearts out.

Any possibility of a one week extension ? Tough week all along and wanted some really good videos/ images for this food based contest unlike others

Vandana

Hey! I don't think other participants would approve of an extension, considering they rushed to submit their entries quickly so as to be the first to submit a particular type of recipe.

Just posted one. Don't know submitted or not.

Is it not possible to submit a post already posted in indivine. It's a new post only.

Hello,

Do we need to write a new recipe for the contest or old posts from the blog will do? 

Thanks

@Jaleelakamal - your post is reflecting in the submitted entries. You can view your entry (and all the other submitted entries) on the contest page.

If we have submitted an entry here, can that same entry be submitted for Livogen’s iron chef competition too or we have to submit a different entry there to participate.

Nihal Lazarus

Shoudn't be an issue... Different contest, different judges etc :)

Nihal Lazarus

Hey Everyone, I see a few queries that I think I can answer in here in one go... I'll be happy to answer as many doubts about them as possible if there are more 

Livogen is running 2 contests. One right here on IB - only for IB members, and the Second at http://www.livogen.in/iron-chef/ which is open for 'women who are 18 years and above in India' (IB members who have already participated here may also take part). As expected, there are different deadlines and a few different Ts & Cs. So read the relevant Ts and Cs carefully for the contests that you will be taking part in. All guidelines pertaining to the IndiBlogger contest can be found under the "Rules" tab on the contest page.

I'm sure the Livogen team would really really appreciate it if we all could help spread the word to any who can't participate here but can participate on the official Livogen Iron Chef page!
