i know writing in Hindi is not so encouraging in IB COntests (though i won once in Hindi), Can we write in Hindi for this contest
Yes, you can write in Hindi for all IndiContests unless it is explicitly specified that only entries in english are allowed.
Is it a compulsion to use a car as the vehicle? [since ambi pur cannot be used in a bike or something]
I've this same question too
The entry I've submitted is a roadtrip by bike, that too by my friend's bike
Just when my friend was bugging me to write about our trip to Ooty in my travelogue blog, that was an year back; I'd received this lovely email on June 21. It was fun when I'd recollected my memory about our roadtrip to write
Just waiting to read about others trip as well
Ranjith / Punit -> Could you pl address Arish's & My query above? Should I change my name to other gender to get a quick reply
That Car or Bike question?
Contest page says it should be a Car trip. So, I left the question for @Renie
Btw just for a bike/car trip - I wont suggest a gender change
Once you choose your gender during registration at IB, you can't change it.
@R: (1) he is talking about changing the name to other gender and not about changing the gender in the records of IB.
(2) And as the registered-gender by an IB member is only accessible to IB team, and this is why we find it difficult to figure-out men-to-women rato from the winners' list.
(1) I thought that he was saying - IndiTeam responds faster to female bloggers.
(2) Default Profile picture of men is blue coloured and for women, it is brown coloured. The problem arises when they use a gravatar that doesn't have their photo but some scene/image and they use their blog name as their IB profile name.
R: (1) but he mentioned your name
(2)but they don't show any mark on DP
( 1 ) OK
( 2 ) But still, if they haven't uploaded their gravatar, you can find whether the blogger if male / female by looking at the DP.
but a majority of winners use gravator and those who use symbolic dp and weird id create the confusion.
No replies from Bhargav? Any special reason
Thanks for the response guys! (Thanks for making 'total damage' comments to my question )
Yesterday, I recieved the Ambi Pur sample
oh love this one !
Well, is it a BMS voucher or a PVR voucher @Renie? PVR is difficult to redeem especially in Kolkata!
Can I submit the post while travelling on the BIKE via my Samsung Galaxy S4? Although my road trip was on a brand new Maruti 800 car
bookmyshow.com vouchers ll serve the purpose.. that way ppl / winners can choose the theatre of their choice.
btw loving this new topic to write on......ROAD Trip.. whoa \m/
@TSw: when they say u can choose your vehicle,route and companion, this means u are free to use your imagination.
Ya, u can also add real life memoir or parts of it ,
Yay! Avadhoot - man of the moment...thanks for your input :D Will start writing something soon...sigh!
I have a query.
One of my friends travelled along with his friends to Leh in a Toyota Innova. I was not a part of the trip but I wrote about it. Can I submit it?
you are not going to testify in the court dude
go ahead, You are supposed to showcase your writing skills.
use that content with proper modifications so that it suits the requirement of the contest.
no ambipur clip sample yet!
Same here, Kitchen Mummy. :( Even though I got a call from Bangalore confirming my postal address and telling me it will be delivered in 2 working days. Thaus was many many days ago. :)
A friend has received it (in a week of the call for confirmation), though I am still to recieve... may be a few more days...
Same here. I also got a call from Bangalore confirming my postal address.
i got the call sm 3-4 weeks before i guess, followed by the ambipur sample aftr sm days of that call.
How many of you'll are like me - waiting for 21st to start writing your post?
Me!
im waiting for 21st to submit.
Same here. Will submit on the 21st, although post is ready. Nandini, any idea when on 21st they make the other entries visible?
nop
With whatever little I know about Indi contests, dont think they will be disclosed on 21st
And, what purpose will it solve posting on 21st, if you are ready with it? Post it, share it on social networking sites and attract readers... Btw, I am still struggling to complete the write-up...a fictional one this time!
Display of entries & Closing of contest time is same - @ 11:59 PM on 21/7/13.
OK. Punit. Soon as you complete yours and share it, let me know. I will follow suit. I have a feeling you will be posting on the 21st too.
If I be able to write it tonight, I will submit it tomorrow...Will update
Road Trip- There cannot be a better topic to write on for a consultant who spends most of this time travelling. But the thread is missing something- the roar. I guess everyone is waiting for 21st.
Earlier when the entries were made visible before the last date, there was a chance to predict if the contest gets extended by looking at the number of entries entries. But now, no chance.
I'll be very happy if the contest gets extended.
i wont be happy if its extended after i submit, they better extend it now itself
I feel there would be enough entries and wouldn't need any extension... @Nandini: Even if they extend the deadline after submission, just revert your entry back to draft and publish on the new deadline...
I haven't seen any IB contest that has not been extened - being it deadline, results or awards' dispatch. And, I cant understand anything affecting winners' list based on when they submitted it...
