Hello All,
I am going to announce an entirely new contest at Boddunan.
It is a "CAPTION WRITING CONTEST".
Brief Description
It is a weekly contest. An image will be provided to you, you have to write a caption for it, the best two captions will be awarded Rs. 50 and Rs. 25 respectively.
15 Points will be given to all participants including winners.
Some Rules
1. The first and the foremost rule is it should not be copied from any source i.e. book, internet or any newspaper etc. Means it should be completely self created. The person found copying shall not be eligible for next two week's caption contests.
2. It should be short and clear. A person should able to understand its meaning in just one read.
3. There will be only one entry per person in this contest in a week, however, you can edit it any number of times.
4. If there will be less than 7 entries in a week' contest, there will be only one winner. Means there should be more than 7 participants in a week for announcing two winners.

I hope everything is crystal clear. In case of any doubt, you can ask me. In case you want to give any suggestions, you are most welcome.
Hope you all like the contest and I will be able to see a lots of participation. The contest will be starting from this Monday.
So, All the Best Guys..!!
