Umm...can I ask a question..? I added the link to ambipur at the end as part of the sentence which says "this is an entry for Indiblogger and ambipur's the perfect road trip". Is it mandatory to include a link to ambipur in the midst of the post itself? 

Nandini Deka

u can add it anywhere, but yes u have to add a link to make your entry valid

Ranjith

No, not necessary. One link somewhere in the post ( be it the middle or the end ) is sufficient.

Well, I did submit my post on the "originally set" deadline....I won't be modifying it further...*learning from experience*

Cheers!

Me neither Sammya. I submitted it because it was ready. Re-edits will only mean I'm getting "inspired" by what I see. I've not even hidden it. If someone wants to copy-paste, they  know they should not be writing anyway and should be making music like Anu Malik. Wink What learning from experience do you mean though?

Punit Dubey

I am stuck at a point, ~600 wrods done but now my mind refuses to let me write any new word, just unable to complete what I started...May be I will try later and post it otherwise and not for contest

@Sakshi: By experience, I meant "the drawings" from the last contest Wink

I have always submitted deliverables to the client well before time, same follows here. However, I SIMPLY hate people borrowing ideas, hence reverted "to draft" last night. P.S. Should I "peep" into your entry? haha!

Ranjith

@Sammya You can edit the post till the new deadline. Smile

@ Punit Give an abrupt ending like I did for the WeChat contest. Wink By the way, my completed posts are just around 600-700 words. Innocent

@Ranjith I was trying to build up a romantic story around a day trip...But I got so involved with the NaNoWriMo writeup that unable to put any mood, at least satisfying myself, to this Trip story...

Sammya Brata

I guess it's tough, but I'll resist myself...I am satisfied with my effort and won't indulge in further modifications.... I have seen pretty ordinary entries (as per my judgement) making a cut into the winning list. It's not about our perception, that much I understand!

And is 600 some sort of a bench-mark? ;) Why's this figure coming in through those replies? Hmm ;)

Punit Dubey

Has someone else lost the track at 600?Sealed

Ranjith

My track ended at 600. Wink

Putting contest entries in draft mode appears to be the new trend. :P

Punit Dubey

I remember How the guys who submitted their practical copy late in class though have best copies - no errors and cuts as all copied from industrious guys - never got the best score! :)

I am still to figure out statistically whether posting late helps anyways? Guess, this Contest will have answers...

Ranjith
from hyderabad
10 years ago

We have to submit all our practical copies at once and many copy from me. Undecided

I am still to figure out statistically whether posting late helps anyways?

Let's hope that the result turns out positive. Wink

Wouldn't be good for Indi if the results turn out positive...they'll have to keep on extending the dates Tongue out

Hey @Nandini I have already read your post via GFC! You reverted it back to draft right? Wink

Nandini Deka

10 years ago

whats GFC?? I reverted pretty quick, surprised you read so fast,Surprised i had published by mistake so changed it to draft. i've not submitted it though......how does one read thru GFC??

Ranjith
from hyderabad
10 years ago

Nandini. You are using GFC without knowing what it is. The followers gadget on the right is GFC ( Google Friedn Connect ) . When someone follows your blog, they see it on their blogger dashboard.

ranjith...i didnt know post landed on their dashboard as soon as i publishSurprised i had changed it to draft quickly...Surprised

Bloggers and Renie are playing hide and seek. Renie doesn't want to close the contest until enough entries are received and bloggers ( At Least me, Nandini and a few others ) don't want to submit their entries until the contest closes. Innocent

Now, I feel that keeping the contest deadline and entries visibility date the same has caused this problem. Sealed

Arre @ranjith haven't you seen that Epic Comedy movie Andaz Apna Apna, in a scene Amir Khan asks Govinda: Aila, Govinda? And, Govinda answers Chamaila, Tu kaun? :P

Well, Aila is a famous marathi exclamatory remark...

@Punit I don't understand Hindi well. I watch only Telugu movies. Laughing

Happy that a non-Telugu person likes Telugu Movies Laughing

They will surely extend the deadline if Ranjith does not submit his entry for the contest. Sealed

Ranjith

I wrote two posts. Will write two more. So, if the deadline doesn't get extended before today night, I will have to submit one post today itself. Undecided

Now talking about deadlines, did the 'Straight Hair' contest have a deadline mentioned on the contest page or was it simply closed at the end of December? Innocent
