#TheBlindList - Lufthansa Contest
Thanks Nihal, that is a big relief.
All the best to everyone . Hope for the best.
Uploaded my second post for the contest today... :)
I might be able to submit my entry only tomorrow.
Is it okay if we share it on social media after the 17th or is that time bound too?
I have the same question...
@Arti & Antarik - No problem, it'll be accepted.
can i write in any language..i.e malayalam??
Yes, of course you can but I think, english has a brighter chance of winning.
Finally able to submit my post on time :)
However, still the feed issue not sorted, kindly look into this.
I don't have a facebook account. Does it make a blogger without social media accounts ineligible to participate?
Interesting question... as social media sharing is mandatory. Why must bloggers be expected to be there on social media platforms as a necessity? I guess, writing a blog-post and promoting a blog-post go hand-in-hand. So if a person just writes but doesn't take every possible step to increase the reach of a post, the essential element of penetrative reach isn't possible. But then, maybe I am just rambling on like someone in his sixties... :)
I think Nihal will have your answer.
I don't think so. There are lot of bloggers who keep away from social media and stick only to their blogs (for a lot of different reasons). I think it is just recommended to share your posts on social media (if you have one) just to increase its reach. It shouldn't make you ineligible if you can't share it on facebook. Its a blogging contest and we are already sharing it on a blogging platform like IB.
You are right, Arvind, about not using social media wisely to promote our blog posts. I am the one who's rambling like someone in her sixties, in fact I am :) Thanks Srinivasan and Sarah for your thoughts on this. Nihal's answer to Neeraj's question on this thread isn't promising. If not tagging the right handle can make a post to be discarded, what am I even talking here about not owning social media handles. But that's alright. I cherished those few minutes of writing for this contest as I always do. What else can bring out the true essence of blogging?! Good luck to the rest of you!
@Nalini -- Me too. You have some company now
Hey All, not having a presence on one or an other social media platform will not disqualify you from this contest. The handles and hashtags of the Brand / Campaign are mentioned in the rules in an effort to urge participants to use them when they are promoting their posts via those respective channels.
It is really hard for me to describe this topic but I able to feel the inner beauty of this topic . But I tried my best to describe my feelings for this topic in my blog post .
Finally managed to send in my entry, thought I am going to skip this one. All the best to all who are participating in this contest
Hi,
I'm not able to embed the said video in my Wordpress blog post. I have no choice but to include the youtube link. Hope I will be considered.
Figured it out and it worked, thankfully
Was finally able to upload my third entry for this contest in which I attempt to define a blind list. Just my interpretation... do read and comment if you find my definition reasonable.
Hello Nihal, I am still confused about this rule. Enhanced IndiStats
I followed all instructions on my blog for Enhanced .IndiStats. But I cannot see any stat on my blog. Is it hidden list or will display anything on blog.
Hi Bhagwat, once you've installed the IndiStats code, it won't display anything on the blog. You don't have to do anything more. Good luck for the contest!
Are you still accepting entries for this contest? I guess I'm too late forthis
Hi Nihal,
When are the results slated to be announced?
Hi Akshay, I totally understand your anticipation... we're waiting eagerly for the winner list too :). I'm confident that we should be able to annouce sometime this week. I'll update again asap!
Hey Nihal! Any luck with the results?
Hi, is there an update on the results?
Any news about the results, Nihal?
Reminding Nihal of what he wrote two weeks back: 'I'm confident that we should be able to annouce sometime this week.' :)
Same here Arvind ji
I am desperately waiting to know what are the winning thoughts. It seems like it is proving a tough one to decide for. And kudos to all indibloggers for that.
No update yet? I wonder if the results will be out this year.
Aayi naaaa, koi khabar, mere "award" ki
