Hello All,
This content is temporarily suspended.
Continuing from the success of BBL, I am pleased to introduce another exciting contest on Boddunan - The Boddunan Top Writers contest. Without any delay here we go with the details.
Benefits
1. Rs.250 per article, not exceeding 5 articles per member per month. Total of 20 awards per month.
2. Selected articles will be featured on homepage for one month.
3. Special designations/ranks will be introduced in the future for top writers (under consideration).
Introduction:
The main concept of the contest is to write articles as the name suggests. However the contest does not force you to write more articles rather it focuses on quality of the articles that you submit. We have allotted a total fund of Rs.5000 per month for the contest and is awarded for top articles.
Concept:
1. The contest requires nominations from you, the writers, for your articles which you consider as "THE BEST".
2. Every month, selected articles will be awarded Rs.250 per article will be given, no exceeding 20 such awards per month.
3. A maximum of 10 articles can be nominated per member on a given month
4. A maximum of 5 articles can be selected for awards per member on a given month
5. There will be no restriction on category you choose to write articles.
6. "THE BEST" does not mean the article with highest payout, rather the content that attracts and appeal to more national/international users.
Terms & Conditions:
1. The content must be unique and should not be copied from anywhere. If we found you copied, you will be banned for writing as a whole or banned for participating in the contest with not less than 2 such contests (as decided by the administrator).
2. The article title must be unique and appeal to the editors/administrator. After all it is the first impression.
3. No grammatical errors present. This one rule can make your article not eligible for award.
4. Everyone can participate in this contest however copycats will be disqualified from next month, if found any.
How to participate?
1. Write best articles as possible starting 1st of every month till 25th (dates inclusive).
2. Nominate your top articles (up-to a maximum of 10) through contact us form (do not send PM to me).

The article creation date is considered for the purpose of consideration. So I suggest you to send a support request for removal of pending article and write new one in next month.Can articles submitted from 26th till end of month be included in next month nominations. Obviously, these cannot be in current month.No
But if an article has been written after 26th of a month and edited also but is submitted in current month, will that qualify for reward. For example, an article is written on 27th April and edited many times. But this submitted finally on first May. will this qualify in month of May?
You should have submitted it with your other URLs in last month but since it was not available/completed by 25th it probably would be neither here nor there, yet you may PM to admin.
My view is that date of article is date of submission and not date of editing. An editor can edit and administration approve only after article is submitted. I feel that date of submission by an author is date of article. I submitted an article on first of May. so this should qualify in May only. In April, this was beyond jurisdiction of editorial staff. I only wish consideration and confirmation of this. .
Boddunan editor registers the date while you begin writing, my suggestion is to bring it to admin's knowledge for best results.
The issue is raised through this post. I hope Admin will consider. This is only for knowledge and suitable future action. I am not personally very bothered.

I have two articles on my dashboard, which were created after 25 of April. Both of them are unfinished though. But, I have rewritten the articles on may 1st with additional conternt. These two articles are also unfinished and still they are in development stage.
In such cases also is it necessary to send a request to support staff to remove my old unfinished articles as you suggested?

I have 3 articles which i submitted on 25 and 26. Two articles were approved by the editors and pending admin review. So what should I do now?Article submitted on 25th is eligible for the contest (if you have sent nomination) where as you can decide whether you want to keep or remove the one submitted on 26th.

Thank you for the clarification and suggestion. I have sent fresh communication to support team by including the articles dated not later than 25th April though one is submitted on first may and also approved by editor. .
Hai friends, I would like to participate this contest. Could anyone explain me about it indetail. I could not understand though I read all the posts.
There is nothing much to detail about it, simply post your articles as usual and send your article links to admin after 25th of every month. (maximum 10 links which you think your best out of any numbers that you write)

I regret to say that this contest will be suspended temporarily until further notice, starting May 2014. The contest will be continue for the month of April 2014. All article submitted till April 25, 2014 will be eligible for the contest.

I welcome the idea. Let it be on articles based, or on special occasions perhaps.
Dear All,I like this contest, it gives me additional impetus to write more, and many a times, while on tour I used to write, I am hoping this contest will be same as of now when it reopens on May 14, and this means on this day, I do not have to submit article, as I can wait till May 14, am I right.

I have submit one article for the contest earlier in the month of Mar/Apr. Will that be considered for the May 2014 writer contest ?
No, Articles submitted between 1st May to 25th May are considered for that particular month contest and that too if you have sent nomination between 26th to 31st May. If you do not send nomination within the stipulated time, then also you are not eligible!

I have the same question to ask, no results have yet been declared for March and April. I submitted articles and sent my links as required by the management. I hope admin will respond soon and declare results for undeclared months.
