Samsung Mobilers Winners : A Disappointment!
Totally disappointed to see the Results of the Samsung Mobilers contest. It is obvious that you have chosen only those posts as winning entries who have posted a lot of PICTURES of the Samsung Galaxy Tab. Content other than visuals, amount of traffic coming to the blogger's site have not been given any weightage. In nutshell, bad judgment.
Deleting all my posts about Samsung and Indiblogger from my blog. Will not participate in any contest on this site in future. Good bye, Indibloggers. I've seen enough.
PS : Congratulations to the winners!
Okay. Buzz me if you plan to come around Deccan area.
Hope none of the winners are planning to skip the 'Award ceremony' in Gurgaon...
I'll, for sure, be there... will drive down from Delhi.
Arrey sir, DIL PE MAT LO YAAR
wo bevkoof bacche hungama karke chale gaye; aap to apna prize enjoy karo:)
I am coming :)
Just wanted to inform you guys that one of the guy 'Jose Tinto' [He writes at techjunoon.com] was teaching me lessons of Courage, guts and ethics. I replied his comment, but even after 24 hours, several emails and tweets, he is not publishing the comment.
"Courage and Guts" are missing now, it seems.
Anyways here is my reply to him
"Think whatever you want man, that doesn't bother me.You call them scammers, that's your viewpoint. Obviously it's your blog so you have all rights do that, but abusing to such an extent is not appreciated by me. Just because you have not won, or just because you don't think that the half of the winning entries didn't deserve a win, it's a scam. Fact of the matter remains that you were not judge of the contest. So no matter how loudly you rant, that won't make any difference. Now just be at peace and think for a moment that isn’t it would have been more beneficial for Samsung India to choose all the tech bloggers as winners because ultimately those are the people who write most about them. But the fact of the matter remains, that Samsung India did not do it. Winners include tech bloggers and non-tech bloggers also. Accusing Samsung India of not being fair, in my point of view, is not fair.You are claiming that indiblogger and Samsung India are my master because I won the prize. How lame, idiotic and narrow thinking is that. Just assume for a moment that what if you would have won, would Samsung and indibloggers would have been your masters. What Crap man, what crap!Regarding the tweets, let me clear it. You had put a screenshot of your tweet mentioning the entry which was later changed, what's the point of showing that tweet then, the other random.org screenshot was reaction to your that tweet. Now when winning entry is changed those tweets doesn't matter. However, if you would have said that even the present winning entry is not worth winning according to you, I would not have said a word on this.Man, you are talking about guts. I feel you don't what courage means. If you have enough courage and guts, don't tell your readers just your part of story. Let them also see what indiblogger has to say on this entire issue. Renie, in his reply mentioned all the links which were abusing and accusing his company. Now that is what I call courage and ethics. He try to put the entire picture and let his readers decide who is on the wrong side. On the other hand, your have not your updated your article and still claiming that you got a mail from indiblogger 'Staff' inspite of clarification that, that guy was not a part of staff.Dude, just talking about guts and courage doesn't make you brave enough. You have guts, courage and ethics. Portray the entire picture and not just your side of story. Let your readers read this http://blog.indiblogger.in/2011/09/24/the-samsung-it%E2%80%99s-time-to-tab-contest-on-indiblogger/ and let them decide who is trying what.Lastly, you don't represent Indian Tech Blog community. So even your title is misleading. The guys who are protesting can be counted on fingers and the Indian Tech Blog community is way bigger than you think."
Before that guy talks about ethics he needs to see his own. Reviewing without benchmarks, shots or anything. He compiled "reviews" with product shots and basic specifications.
Dont waste your efforts on such people.
Where are all the paragraphs gone? Anyways, try to read it without that.
Excellent reply.
Punnet, few times it feels like we did some kind of crime by winning this contest
Forget it dude, wise people ignore such idiots. Ever heard "Haathee chale bazaar to kutta bhaunke hazzar". But the elephant never cares about them. Enjoy your prize and the award ceremony:)
Number of comments from unique people on their blog itself explains how big they are and what they can do. None of them can do any harm to you. Leave it, march ahead
Keep blogging; keep original blogging
@Soumya I never felt that. And you should also avoid such a feeling. I read some of the replies to your comments, and you were literally being abused inspite of your explainations.
Just ignore such people. Though I am saying this but at times, instead of ignoring I replied, but now will try to stay away from this. Enough is said already and sensible people can understand who is on the wrong side.
Most of them got abusive in their comments, which shows how frustrated they are. Let them be. Just think of this "Me tension leta nahi, deta hoon"
Enjoy the prize. Looking forward to meet you.
@Animesh LOL. Thanks buddy :)
@Animesh, @Puneet: Fine. Abhi se sirf Tension dene ka hai
Looking forward to meet you both
Hey Soumya; I will not meet you there. I had not even participated forget about winning LOL
Double enter for paragraph.
I actually did a "Copy-Paste" Notepad
@Animesh: No issues bro, Kabhi mein pune aaoon, yaa app odisha aao, toh mulaqat ho hi jayegi ;)
But liked your approach. A man who is no way connected to a contest even taking stand for the fair part. Bravo!!
Thanks man
Hmmm... great! So its time to tab ;)
Btw, did anyone get flight tickets mailed?
I got my tickets. Landing in delhi at 9 AM on 3rd October
Hi All,Requesting all winners of the contest to track this thread : http://www.indiblogger.in/forum/topic.php?id=10171 Let's share our flight timing, like when we would be arriving @ Delhi. Also you can mail me your IDs so that we can collaborate and be updated about the whole thing and plan for a meet up @ Delhi Airport.I would be landing @ Delhi @ 8:45 AM.My Mail ID : neo@techquark.com
Phone : 9052230707PS : Just checked with the organisers, there would be someone on the airport to pick us up. It would be great if we go in groups :)Looking forward to meet all awesome bloggers if Indiblogger community :)
There is some problem with <br> tag in Indiblogger :P Paragraphs get lost :(
@Renie Ravin : No answer has come from you since I my last reply to you. Don't expect any from you either. I wanted to make a point, which I did. Hopefully, new people will learn from our mistake and not participate in these sham contests on your site any more. Seems people are quite intelligent as your "loyalists" are literally begging visitors to Indiblogger.in to take part in your QVendo contest, which has got a very poor response!
And to those who are now stooping down to the level of using abusive language and name-calling, my answer is this!......The mice will play while the cat is away! I don't have the time to sit here replying to each of their inane messages. They are idle & unemployed people chatting all day long on this site. And I can only laugh at those who could not even understand the meaning of the term "modus oper andi" or why the last part got asterisked. Maybe you should explain it to them, Renie
And to those who doubt the power of my words and the followers I have, look at yesterday afternoon's Mid-Day, and you will find an article having the words "modus Oper andi" in its Title. The author of that piece picked it up after reading me use it here. This is the kind of power that my words hold. Cheers! Have fun while I'm away.
Cheers
LOL
Can we each contribute some amount and gift Navin a new tablet ? He looks very sad ! NOM :)
Congrats; now leading news papers are borrowing words from you dear:)
You have long way to go; all the best ;)
Well, a small story came into my mind. Once day a cock thought that if it will not make sound ( kukuduku ) in the morning, the sun won't rise. We all know if it was right :) All characters appearing in this story are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.
@Shubham bwhhahahhahhaha
Navin, Are you planning to file a copyright case against that Mid-Day journalist for using your word without your permission?
@nivin so your "modus oper *****" is
1. post an article for some contest expecting that they give you VIP treatment coz of your daydreaming of visitor numbers that your **yawn** blogpost gets.
2. if not given the prize, rant rant rant
3. if that doesn't work, act as if you are a celebrity in blogging community
4. it that doesn't work, rant rant rant
5. if that doesn't work, go ga-ga that some dork journalist pick another dork's words to use in a dorky aritcle in trollpaper.
6. if that doesn't work, rant rant rant.
Have some self respect! And please, stick to your words in the first post and get the hell out of here.
And I thought Renie had clarified evrything on the blog hehe. Replies still remaining
:(
Renie; not done man. You ought to reply to celebrity bloggers at least. You can't ignore them like this man:(
Respect for Renie, the way he managed everything is really conmendable ! Renie if you are reading this, it would be awesome to meet you in person @ Samsung Meet, Delhi. :)
*commendable

Faad diya :D
Stick to words????
Really????
I mean you're serious?????
Come on man; that's not how VIPs behave (incidentally most of the VIPs in India are politician after some bloggers)
Talking about word, I think Navin long back said he is deleting his profile and will never come back to Indi. Is something wrong with the system or has he still not deleted his profile ? :S
Truely Agree, I want a tablet as well. Any one wanna donate one ? Contribution ker lo chalega mere ko.
@AllahKeNaamPar: LMAO... really funny :D
:)
LMAO
The heat is ON,
on the street Inside you head,
on every beat
And the beat's so loud, deep inside
'Cause the heat is ON
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho,
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho,
The shadows are on the darker side
Behind those doors, its wilder ride
You can make a break, you can win or lose
That's a chance you take, when the heat's on you
when the heat is ON
Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho, Oh-wo-ho, oh-wo-ho, . . . . .

That's the attitude which some Indians are missing.
Are you one of those non-winners? If yes, it should be a good reply to all these shouters here who have been maintaining that all those who are supporting are only winners and everyone else is disappointed. +1 for the attitude shown buddy
Are you hearingggggggg Mr. Creator of this thread? (The famous VIP blogger with lacs of visitors)
Thanks!
Thanks man
Yes, Samsung picks up the tab for the tabs that the winners get! :)
The song that Sam Sung was worth tuning in to.
There were those who memorised it and have been humming all this while...
There are others too who got static in their lines and could never listen to it completely...
There were yet others who tuned in but for some inexplicable reason inserted their fingers in the socket and got the shock of their lives...
But what matters is that Sam Sung well... and all the Fee-ates and the Queue-vends must turn to it for inspiration! :)
bouncer :(
Bounce and remain happy! :)
