For those wondering about the stamp mentioning Gurgaon, as mentioned by Vineet - "The Gurgaon Address is the corporate address, which is also the company stamp/seal. Please redeem the voucher at any outlet; and there is no reason why anyone could or should refuse it! Happy Eating!"

@renie Is KFC voucher distribution ceremony  over? - there are quite a few including me  waitng for the Blue Dart Boy's knock on the door. :) . Once that's over bloggers here can start their focus on the contest. :)

distribution ceremony !!! InnocentSmile

 There are many more people who are waiting for their vouchers. I don't think that it is over. Just divide your attention between the distribution ceremony and the contest so thgat your entry would cme out before 10th. Smile

KFC voucher seemed to have arrived at the right moment. Have a good time with your parents. Smile

Got my voucher. Have never written/blogged for a contest ever, but after getting the voucher, thought it only fair to stick an entry in. Wrote "what your heart tells you to," taking The Fool's advice, and am extremely worried. I myself do not understand some of the things that my heart tells me to write, how can I expect others to do the same? What I wrote reads like a poor imitation of barthelme and vonnegut crossbred on a mechanized farm! But at the end of it, I had a nice time (understatement) writing it, and with the KFC voucher (once they get used), it is a party all the way!!

I couldn't understand one small thing after raeding your reply: Are you participating or not? Innocent

I recently posted a write up for this contest but i dont even see a trace of it ever since.. is the contest already in action or yet to take off?how will i know the amount of visibility on my writing?

Ranjith

Entries will be made public from the 26th of December....

Thousif Raza M.B

they must have just changed it, because i saw the date being 19th like 10 minutes ago. Anyway hope good entries come in this one and i for finally win something. :P If you count, this is my 5th competition where i am participating. I so wanna win :P

DS
from Mumbai |

Raza Bhai we are in the same boat... I too have not won anything... Lets hope for the best this time:)

DS
from Mumbai |

Raza Bhai one more thing, I would only love to be in the top three as I am a vegetarian!! So Only the croma voucher is of use for me...

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

May be the target wasn't meant and they wished to delay the showing up of entries....

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Yeah - maybe the KFC voucher prizes not exciting for vegeterians. I know now KFC sells veg items as well but still KFC has a non veg image in mind of vegeterians.

@DS & Raza - I have also participated in 5 contests so far. Won nothing. This is my 6th. But winning is doubtful as once I again I have though outside the box while all the prizes are lying inside the box. I will read all the winning entries of Surf excel, Dove and KFC and next time post a proper conformist goodie goodie post conforming to all rules and regulations next time and try to win. I have won at Blog Junta, Blog Adda, Blog-a-ton and Cafe Ginger Chai. Only Indiblogger I have won nothing to date.

DS
from Mumbai |

There is still time... Since the entries will be displayed on the 26th the end date too will be postponed...
I think the contest should run by the 20th of January... Its a safe guess...

Ranjith

There is still a lot more time left and you can submit your entry even in the last few days. All the best for your exams. Smile

I am just thinking - why fools always get into sticky situation and mostly get struck. But it's also true that fools hardy create a sticky situation - they are a happy go lucky lot. Fools often become as a prey in this harsh complex world of greed, ambition and selfishness

Just sharing a few thougts to elicit more thoughts from u all - trying to conceive a plot

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

To which Fool are you referring? Smile

Gautam Maitra

 I would luv to see that the champs should definitely participate - that's democracy but I would luv the winners do a real critical acclaim - good and bad both so that the writers can improve and overcome the glitches.  Here what we mostly see is voting and sweet one liner commnents - but what as a creative writers each one would feel disered is a real post mortem - a review sort of. That I did find in some writers site in the west and each come up better. 

First I should luv my own - if I dont ....I shouldnt expect a prize. I often dont like mine - i feel to rewrite again ... may be other may not feel that way. :)

Thousif Raza M.B

I totally agree... i've submitted 2 entries. Goutam check mine and i'll check ur's and i'll give honest commenst deal. ok?

DS
from Mumbai |

I will check out your entries and give my unbiased comments Raza Bhai. Hope you will too check out my posts:)
All the Best:)

@ DS: i'll check ur entry and give a unbiased view :) promise :)

Thanks man!!

DS

@ Tousif Bhai
Checked and commented on both your posts.
I loved both of them but I think that MI one has a better chance of winning...
Also there is a small mistake in the other post. "She has gone out on a holiday, and by the WAY why are you inside my house"
You have forgotten that way while writing the post...
All the Best:)

Thousif Raza M.B

@ DS thank you so much for reading and commenting and even helping me correct the mistakes :). You are awesome waiting for your post :) will read and comment as soon as it comes out :)

DS

That was a good entry Thousif... I wonder how many people around you had to miss a movie because of your sharp mind... Smile

@thousif - oh sure dude!! I wud luv that...and sure to do a fair unbiased review - only matter of copnstraint is time.IWriting one liner to 50 entires on one night is easy. But to read and review is a  matter of responsibility - cause I owe to my fellow writer for making him come up .

Once long back I had participated in a western comp where the entry condition was that each contestant had to write a review of each of the other entries. Then the judges finalises.Very exciting it was.

I had attended couple of other online contests where entries were on a smaller scale - where a selected few bloggers dont join the comp and act as judges and each of the judges declare the winners with their comments. The points summed up by all the judhges matter in the end. In that contest, some very intersting points came up. While one judge selected mine as the top rank while two others didnot rank it in top 5 for other considerations. That's how opinion may vary on entries. Bonus for us is, this interaction and to realise that by the swear of a contest, I have one more article in my kitty.  Articles are like soft clay. You can create as many models out of that as possible - provided you desire to and have the time and the right place to sit down and write.Cheers for the deal is struck. :)

Ok yaar i will read ur entry and give a review too :) wiating for the entries to be seen :) very excited :)

Farida Rizwan

DS, you are kind of over confident about me. I am sorry that I cannot live up to your expectations :). Let me tell you my secret. Whenever I am asked to write on a topic, I sit down and see how it is connected to my life. I go into the past. Fortunately or unfortunately there have been so many things happening in my life that there is no dearth for stories. Being born a girl with club foot, childhood problems, cancer, losing Mom and Sister to cancer, bringing up a special needs child and above all being rebelious in nature (against discrimination, religion etc) have all contributed generously to the spicy events called my life. My blog itself is about sharing those experiences with readers who care to read it. Whenever there is a contest, all I do is just go back and pick up a part of my life and bring it out in words. It comes more from my heart than my head. Finally I can assure you that I can give away all those prizes and be some unknown on indiblogger for not having to go through that mess I have been through.

You are a brave brave women Farida ji, truly appreciate your fighting qualities. Inspiration for many how to never give up no matter what difficulties we face. *SALUTE*

Varun Gawarikar
from Manama |

Indiblogger please tell us more about judging who would be judging and if such contracts are signed.

I now have serious doubts about the judging process. A post with 250 words and head shots wins ? what is going on here?

Who decides the consoloation prices ? Same bloggers keep getting the prices ?

Sampath Bhoompally
from Hyderabad |

Yeah same Question from me..i support Varun..

Varun Gawarikar
from Manama |

real questions get buried in the maze of promotions....Is there an Right to Indiblogger information ?

Sampath Bhoompally
from Hyderabad |

I wish we had..now i think we should leave this thing and look forward to more in the next contest ..lets B +ve varun and go ahead. SmileInnocent  

Some day our day will come sure..Then we will rock Cool

Can I submit my entry in Gujarati language ?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

As I have said in the other thread, it is advisable that you submit your entry in English only. I remember someone else raising a similar question in a contest long ago. The choice of the language then for that particular blogger was Hindi. A member of the IndiTeam needs to confirm this.

PeeVee
from Bangalore |

I don't know if the question has been addressed but what if we don't have Croma stores in our city?

Thanks and good luck:)

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Simple! Just give it to me Wink or you take the help of your friend or relative to redeem the voucher after you win it.
