SimonAndal: It's not about mkmyers, the bloke's as legit as they come. It's about the others. How long are we gonna wait till the entrys come in? Forever? Forgive me for losing patience and labelling the whole thing a scam.

Oh! The entries have all been reviewed, evaluated and scored.

Here's a list of the top 5------>https://www.nairaland.com/1015826/calling-all-writers-contest-1/3#12053280

The polls for the top 5 will be put up by mkmyers.

This project was mkmyers and not mine, this was made clear from the beginning. I only participated to give support just like every other event/procedure/write-up that happens in this section.

When I do my project, its always very transparent and I do not receive people's write-ups, instead all participation is done openly for everyone to witness. In the course of the contest, he asked masterpiecer, firestar and myself to judge the contest which was done and the result was displayed on here.

That been said, I don't think we should panic, he might just be busy or unavailable. Let's give him time, some entries were submitted to the email account I created (Thank God I created an email account for the contest for safety reasons).

If by tomorrow, nothing is heard from him, I would display all the entries here. Let's not get paranoid or worried for nothing, ok!

I have attached links for clarity sake so you can see my involvement. Thank you!

Dont go against your initial post bro, it cast doubts on the whole process...please find a way to put up a poll, perhaps start a new thread for that and link this to it.
Waiting anxiously for the top 5's writings, no fall my hand o!

What is happening to this contest?
What is the reason for the delay?
Re: Calling All Writers Contest 1: A Challenge So Great by vescucci(m): 12:03pm On Sep 21, 2012
Sigh.

I'm interested in this. But a little bit more thought has to be put into it. It all smacks of a hurried plan and counter plans which didn't work. Perhaps, instead of prizes, recognition would be better?
Re: Calling All Writers Contest 1: A Challenge So Great by sino(m): 4:07pm On Sep 21, 2012
^i dont think it was hurriedly planed, the issue is with pollz. I agree with you on the prize, recognition will do just fine.

@mkmyers whatzup man? I am beginning to lose interest o!
Re: Calling All Writers Contest 1: A Challenge So Great by Cuddlemii: 4:11pm On Sep 21, 2012
Hmm
what next?
Re: Calling All Writers Contest 1: A Challenge So Great by mkmyers45(m): 5:25pm On Sep 21, 2012
Cuddlemii: Hmm
what next?
The poll thing has refused to work o..maybe i should put up the entries and ask nairalanders to like and the most like wins abi?

Now you are thinking! wink

Do that or let nairalanders type the name of the contestant they r voting for so we can count or tally them.

But the "like" option u proposed is faster & convenient.

Great! Is it too late to enter? ( '-')

The competition closed in August..
Re: Calling All Writers Contest 1: A Challenge So Great by safarigirl(f): 5:29pm On Sep 28, 2012
mkmyers45: The competition closed in August..
but it was slated to close on the 29th of this month...so those who submitted theirs in September were not put into consideration. I sent a message asking the format of submission on the 29th of August, and got a reply early September when this ought to have ended, wasn't informed so, went through some stress to submit, and all efforts are now in vain. Just saying, it's not cool.
