Presenting - The tech2 original write-up contest!

[coolpcguy]

Ever had the itch to write a review/hands-on/tutorial but backed out of laziness? We thought so too and hence we're unveiling this contest and giving you a chance to win some goodies(..and get rid of that laziness too!).

We're giving you an opportunity to submit your best reviews/guides/tutorials/hands-on to the tech2 community. All entries will be eligible for a prize. There are a total of 4 prizes to be won.

• One winner for the best review will get a Corsair Voyager 16GB USB flash drive
• One winner for the best hands-on will get a Corsair Voyager 16GB USB flash drive
• Two winners for the best guide/tutorial/DIY will get a Corsair Voyager 16GB USB flash drive each

The 16GB USB flash drives are sponsored by Corsair.

Some rules:

• This contest is open to all forum members, new/old doesn't matter
• You will need to make a post in Reviews Section of our board - posts in other sections will not be considered.
• Posts already present will not be taken into consideration. Sorry guys!
• We're looking at originality - read no plagiarized posts, copy+paste from other sites etc.
• The winners will be decided by tech2 writers, who are the sole judges. Judges' decision will be final & binding.

So get started on those posts. You never know, we might have some extra goodies too

(ps: Apologies for the bad contest name - I'm bad at naming things)

(pps: Hope we can get some good response - if so watch out for bigger contests!)

(ppps: All thanks to hatzim & co - I'm just a messenger!)

Hands on review means a review for something that is out and which is latest in the market.

Glad to hear!

actually, no. Hands-on is a more like a preview of a device which you've used for few hours - couple of days. You've literally kept your hands on it for few hours. Review is a more comprehensive, indepth writeup based on your experiences for severals days.

hmmmm

So it's time to get my thinking cap on and review some Gadget or Game I already have

[coolpcguy]

To make this awesome contest even sweeter, we've decided to bump up the goodies:

- The best review of the lot, as decided by the judges has a chance win a Rs 500 cash prize, over and above the existing pen drive prize, provided the review meets & exceeds tech2's expectations
- The best review will also be featured on the tech2.com home page
- Going forward, Mods will be able to nominate the best review of the month, qualifying them to be eligible for a prize of a 750GB hard drive, subject to tech2's discretion.


So get crackin' folks!

This is a very good initiative! Nice goodies! Keep it up

Just posted my review a few hours back. Request everyone to have a look

[hatZim]

Okay, it's up:

Morpheus3000, please check you review out here: http://tech2.in.com/reviews/gaming/t...-review/326982

Also check out the homepage: tech2.in.com

Couple of other things, some formatting issues still remain, am not completely satisfied with the way it looks. But will let it go this time around, however these are being fixed in the background. And will be taken care of the next time around a user review is posted on the home page.

Congrats again! And we're organising all the goodies to be sent over to you.

Enjoy!

PS: Onto the next one!
