Diwali Gift from IndiBlogger - Happy Hours

Congratulations to all the winners. Lots of new names and faces. Seems I've been Absent for quite too long.

One good thing about this contest is that it attempts us to step out of our fears of getting copied.

Listen, I've written earlier that those copy never go far... and those who go far never copy. Another little facet I believe in is that we all have our own writing style and if someone picks up a paragraph, it is bound to stick out like a sore thumb unless the copyist matches the rest of his post with an equally vibrant style. The copy dodos die a natural death sooner than they would want to... and this is because copying isn't such an interesting pastime. Writing original stuff is mesmerising and so we see all those who write their posts still at it even years later.

So why fear?

not fear, its my choice

Couldn't have said it better. Those who copy never go far. Original remains original and this is Internet, highly likely that at someone is/has copied me and I wouldn't even know. So why fear! Fear kills the fun. :)

its a mistake to think of it as fear...,,cos' copying can be lifting of ideas too ( which happens a lot ) and that can be done without disabling anything. like i said some things are just choice...it was my choice to put that code in my blog...cos' thats the way i like it a-ha! other ppl removed theirs to be eligible for the happy hours thingy.. i didn't not, not cos' of fear of being copy....but just cos i didnt want to remove the code thats all....if its temporary moderation i'd have, but if its one year...then no..(thats why i wanted a clarification )..its just a choice

Renie: Pls add more vouchers to Pepsi one too..... :)

Wish you all a very happy Diwali  

Wish you the same Uma 

deepawali submission open again, try your luck friends.

closed again,

Hi,

Can blogger from langfuage other than english can also submit their post ?

Also what is this queue thing? What if my blog doesn't make it to the Moderation List? Will I be elgible for next moderation slot or not?

Good question. I too had the same query.

Cannot post another entry even though there is a submit button, any idea whatsup? 

You can only submit one entry i guess..

Finally received my voucher for the diwali contest.Thank u Indiblogger for making my diwali a happy one.:)

congo's meghna

Super duper fast! Thanks IB and Dabur 

congo's nikhil,

Thank you 

Also, I have another question. Can one person post onnly one blog for #HappyHours? Or is it one blog per #happyhour contest. Like 1 for Dabur and 1 for Pepsi. Or is it overall one for both of them combined. Also what is this Queue thing? 

@Goel u can submit one for each.

Bad luck no vouchers in pepsi #happyhour.Wish to win but no way 

i want to buy small fridge for my mom and have got 2 flipkart voucher of 1000 rs...can anyone exchange for single voucher of 2000 please

You should be able to apply both the vouchers in a single transaction...did you try?

Flipkart allows you to club three vouchers at a time. :)

@Nikhil and @bushra....actually i have 4 gv of 1000 won in some contest..so i wanted to get 4000 rs off on small fridge...in case u can help out would be great.

thanks

Have added you to my network. Add me too and Indimail me your 1K vouchers! 

thanks for adding..check indimail. @bushra M

Ultimately posted for some lazy bucks [Grin]

good luck bro.

me too and got some cool and lazy bucks

Submited an entry but way after the 7 vouchers would've been gone. As diwali gift, if someone is willing to exchange their Amazon voucher worth 2,000 with Flipkart of same value, I'd be delighted. :p The 3 voucher only rule on Flipkart can be really troubling at times. 

Are Diwali Submissions Open now? I have been checking since morning but can't see any Submit Link? Is it the case with anyone else too?

rejected posts, can they be corrected to stand a chance again or they be just withdrawn into obscurity.

Hahahaa... I got no reply... don't know rejected or not but no peanuts for me... guess, I've wait till France recognizes my virulence [Wink]

rio...i think you should value your own writings...if it doesnt fulfil some brand's criteria that doesnt mean your work is any inferior

Least I expected from IB was a mail informing me where I went wrong... but as you know "sab chalta hai" [Wink]

How to know that? Only thing I know, I wasn't offered any cookie........ [Amused]
