Happy Hours FAQs
I did search on forum topics and coudn't find one that enables new users to have a knowledge about posting/submitting and a working of HH, so I have decided to create this forum topic where new users can ask their questions about the submissions.
Moreover, I ll be explaning here for the general submission of the Happy Hours contest.
What are Happy Hours?
- Happy Hours are not contests.
- Happy Hours are campaigns where you write about a topic and you get rewarded within 24 hours or less.
- Every valid entry for a Happy Hour campaign gets rewarded, as long as there are rewards remaining.
- Vouchers are dispatched via email during Happy Hours ( 4-6 ) on all days of the week.
- Each campaign's topic may have specific submission requirements your entry must fulfil to be valid.
- You can submit a maximum of one entry per campaign.
How to submit my Happy Hour Entry?
- Each Happy hour will have its own "Given Submission Time".For example:
- When the submission timer gets over - There will be a Submit Button on Happy Hour page. Maximum numbers of bloggers are online during that submission time at exact 10 pm(say) and more than 100 entries will be submitted within 1 mins. So make sure you submit at the exact point of submission. This will come if you manage to reach their page before threshold submissions are done.
- But incase you are late, this button will show up.
- Submitting in a Queue does not mean that you will not recieve reward/ neither it means that you will receive reward. It depends on the entries before you - If some of them get rejected, you will get a chance to get your entry modified. (SImilar to Waiting Lists in train travels)
How to know my submission number?
This is one of the most common questions people ask - Note: There is no method to know your specific postion, or number of submission but you can get a vague idea if you check IndiStatus IMMEDIATELY after you submit your entry.
For example:
When will I get my voucher?
Note: The entries are checked/moderated according to their submission queue. Everyday 4-6, and as the vouchers are dispatched at the same time. So if you have submitted towards the end, you might have to wait for a day or more to get your voucher, depending upon when your entry will get moderated.

I hope all the queries after this will be resolved. If there are more, kindly post down and they will be answered soon!
Reason: Title Change
To all those wondering about HH submission number - I have mentioned in this forum. Kindly read!
The submission requirement says no plagiarism. We write original posts but there will always be a few sentences that may be turn out appear plagiarised. So, what is the percentage of plagiarism that is allowed?
There is no fixed percentage. As long as you don't copy blocks of paragraphs from elsewhere, it is acceptable.
X's Story:
It was sunday. I am a boy.
Y's Story:
It was sunday. I am a girl.
Perfectly Fine!
With so many people having the same doubt, It would be better if this topic is made sticky.
So I just had a teensy weensy (probably dumb) question regarding happy hour :D Everyone can submit maximum one entry,right? But it is one entry per blogger or per blog? If I have multiple blogs,is it permissible to submit 1 entry each blog or I have to choose 1 blog and just submit 1 entry on that? There are some topics where more than 1 instances or ideas come to mind,so asking with that in mind :) Thanks :)
Awesome-sauce,thanks :)
