I'm betting Ranjith has already created a thread on this contest by now. Laughing

It is definitely difficult for Rennie and team to work on getting the deserving bloggers to get the prizes.

Today, there are couple of other contest results are also awaited. Good luck all of you. May the best win

Renie, since there are so many entries in the contests. It may be a good idea to have a volunteer team of bloggers reading the entries and doing basic things like checking for plagiarism. Of course, they will not participate in that particular contest.

To ensure fairness in marking, the same blog post could be marked by three or more bloggers and the average taken to be the score.

This would help to ensure results are declared on time.

In fact, we could have something like Coursera's peer grading.

Your assignment marks is deducted by 20% if you don't complete the peer assessments.

I agree with Rakhee. Keeping the posts private till the time the contest is closed, will definitely reduce Plagiarism.

Why the plagiarist entered at the last moment?

Rahul

Not last moment.. Was always in the system, but now is rooted out :D 

Prasanna Rao

I guess for Renie and gang catching a plagiarist at the last moment is akin to a software tester catching a bug in the system just before it goes liveMoney mouth

Ranjith

Checking for plagiarism in around 70 winning entries is easier than checking 400 entries. Money mouth

Shaumik Daityari

Ranjith makes sense. It is not efficient to check all the entries for plagiarism- the IB team has better work to do!

@ Prassana Rao - But once the bug goes into production there wont be much effect here but in real time Softwares , its going to cause operational and functional issues ;) :D

@Stephen- if the plagiarist is caught by Indibloggers after the results are announnced then there will be protests and outcry Cool

Sorry everyone... Results will not be out tonight. We found a few discrepancies which needs to be sorted out first. We've also found one plagiarist (so far). Frown

We're hoping we can announce tomorrow evening (Thursday). I'll post another update sometime around noon!

My old blog, which I thought was shut-down, is up again. And now, I have 2 exactly same blogs with exactly the same entry on for the WeChat competition.

I hope I'm not branded a plagiarist because of some confusion. :D

Delaying the result by a day or two does not really matter but we must not allow the plagiarists to have a laugh at the end of it all. Good work Renie.
Shaumik Daityari

Totally agree with DS. I am ready to wait, if that ensures the rightful people get the awards.

Ekta Khetan

Plagiarist? That's sad. It is a pesonal blogginga nd when one can't blog using one' own personal thought and idea construct, what's the point in blogging per se. Besids, how do people find time to read another posts and copy and have guts to submit as well. Sad that we work on an idea, slog and build a post and some one improvises that further and take the creative accolade away.

Renie pl confirm.

I like two additions here...

1. The 'last' button... it was always painful to reach the end of a discussion.

2. The 'edit' button... so many messages that zoomed into existence were full of errors. This can be corrected now.

 

Thank you, indi team. :)

I too remember chatting on Yahoo but after few days I've changed my status to invisible so that others don't send a hi message whenever they see me in their online list and after few more days, completely signed out of chat. Laughing

I use both WeChat and Whatsapp... though I use the latter to keep connected with my son who is in London. WeChat is relatively new for me but I do have a few people there who keep sending some message or the other.

I'm using WeChat. It's way better than Whatsapp, IMHO.
