That can't be done. You can only wish for extensions

I think the majority of posts are submitted in the last hour...so there won't be much takers for this.

I wish some clarity comes now about the structure of contest....  how and when  the early birds entries are going to be chosen etc etc.

I thought the best earlybirds entries will be rewarded every week 

The initial enthu and anticipation about the early bird is dying. Not having a motivation to write for want of  some news! 

Some new breaking annoucement will pep things up

Any update how early bird entries will be chosen.. after one week  some of the winners should be announced as Renie said the winners will be announced at regular intervals..

I had thought this would be the most happening thread, with buzz around the early-bird prizes.

But an eerie silence prevails here. No birds are in sight.

Birds are all roosting in the "Generic discussion on IndiBlogger Contests" thread.

@TF, LOL....

@Saket, it really seems that hunting season is on...and so all the birds flew away!

@the Fool, and that thread is all the more explosive one, with two comrades gone on it, i think more may go, so I am keeping distance.

Yes TF. You are wise. You never touch tough threads and leave them to the other police log.

Congrats to all early-birds and Indi-Pattanis.

Kudos to Inditeam for bringing back the chirping  in this thread!

Somebody please explain me the difference between the early birds (20/20) and the Indi Pattanis (5/20)? 

Saket Kalikar
from Hyderabad
10 years ago

And the posts are still hidden! Wonder why?

The suspense is going to kill me !

Gaurab

10 years ago

The Early birds were for the first 20 entries  and the Indi-pattanis are "best" entries submited till now 

Saket Kalikar
from Hyderabad
10 years ago

Indi-pattanis are"best" entries submited till now 

Gaurab, till now means till today morning? or till some timeline within one week or so?

RioZee
from Out of this yEt in this World

Early bird 20/20, means first twenty legitimate entries all selected, so rejoice all the fast and brave samaritans, who took up the challenge and posted fast enough to get in to the first 20 slot. Kudos. Those who missed early bird still have chance to get the indipattanis. Another great chance. Supe.

I think till "they started judging" the entries, only Inditeam would know the exact time  I think Indi pattani is there to motivate us to keep on posting for the challenge, there are still 15 gifts left  

Ranjith

I too should have submitted a post on that day. My early bird flew away

I didn't get the IndiPattani (5/20) . Does that mean my entry is out of race now for the fimal prize? Logically, it should be, beacsue if it hasn't made among top 5 entries till today morning, then its never going to do any better in the final round-up. Right?

Ranjipedia (or indipedia, or any other pedia too), some answers please!

RioZee

I don't think so, your post can still win the grand prize, if it is worthy enough. I would say, you have the calibre, just keep on trying.

Saket Kalikar

I think Indipattanis will be decided like this-

Contest started on 10th March. First batch of IndiPattanis will be chosen from entries posted between 10th-16th March (1st week) The second batch of winners will be chosen from those posted between 10th-23rd Mar. The third from the 10th-30th Mar and so on.

The final winners will be chosen from all the entries.

AIt's just my wild guess ! And not from any WikiLeaks or IndiLeaks
