Finally a Topic on my cup of Tea! hehe.. 'We Chat' never came to my mind as an application, until I read 5th line of contest rules again Laughing

Please could I know if there is any restriction on the language? Does it have to be in English only? Is it ok if all of us can submit in any regional language too? Won't that reach out to a larger base of voters and truly make this contest worthwhile? It won't be just another contest but a very useful one with the goal to create a change in the minds of apathetic voters. The jury could take the help of a translator of the particular language to understand the entry. Would that be feasible?

As no language is mentioned on the contest page, you can write your post in any language. This is true for all IB contests.

can anyone tell what are the rules of this competiton? I mean how to write? how many words we can go for? and we have to writeabout pre existing apps only?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

The contest rules are mentioned on the contest page on the right.

Publish your entry on your blog and submit the link to that blog post on the contest page.

how many words we can go for? 

There is no word limit.

 we have to writeabout pre existing apps only?

You can write in general about using social apps or specific  existing apps. Writing about existing ones is better. But as the rules mention nothing about it, I think you can include your imaginary apps also. Laughing

The new T&C says that winners have to bear the TDS..Hmmm first of its kind in Indiblogger.

Heena Dhedhi

elsethey can just take the 70k.. and not the gift. 

Ranjith

It is only for the TV. Cool

Ekta Khetan
from Mumbai |

I think its aplicable on all..we recently did an iPadmini contest giving 10+iPadmini for nothing.

My brand team must be still hating me as I have written off that activity a "waste" and said that we should not ask TDS from winners as Indiblogger doesn't :P

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Ekta Read this thread Money mouth

We spoke to WeChat, and this only applies to the winner of the first prize. If the winner of the first prize does not wish to pay the tax for the TV, he/she can get the prize value of the TV (after deduction) as cash. ~Renie

Narendra Modiji and BJP has stolen the hashtag #VoteForIndia...Sealed

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

That is what I was wondering when I searched for it few days back to see if anyone has tweeted for the twitter contest Undecided

Aditya
from New Delhi |

I wrote 2 tweets 3 or 4 days back Surprised What should I do? @Ranjith any suggestions?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

@ Aditya I think we can continue using #VoteForIndia hashtag. We have an option for adding our twitter account to our IndiBlogger account. ( which you have already added )  So, while deciding the winners, IB can consider only those tweets which have originated from a twitter account added to an IBProfile. This is just my opinion.

To be on the safe side, as Heena suggested, you can add @indiblogger and @wechat to your tweets. But we will be left with too few characters for the actual message Undecided

Aditya

Thanx @Ranjith added both indiblogger and wechat
