What The Terms and Conditions Says about Blogging for Official Designer Challengers

rscasny
rscasny over 8 years ago

Here's what the Design Challenge T&Cs says about where to blog:

 

"Post to the Competition Site blogs on the progress of their Project (Blogs) not less frequently than once per week during the Competition Period. One or two weekly omissions are permissible as long as the total number of Blogs is at least 10."

 

The competition site is element14, not your personal blog (e.g., blogspot)

    Good clarification Mark. Yes, there are different requirements and expectations on Road Tests and Design Challenges. In many ways, both categories are similar, but different. Road test can be thought of…

    I created a discussion because some people are not posting their official blogs on element14. I get the impression (correct me if I am wrong) that they feel posting it on their personal blog is good enough…

    Same applies to Road Tests.

     

    I'm wondering though, why the clarification here and not in the T&Cs? Won't this post get lost over time?

    I created a discussion because some people are not posting their official blogs on element14. I get the impression (correct me if I am wrong) that they feel posting it on their personal blog is good enough. T requirement oes apply to RoadTests. (I recently had a RoadTester post his review on his personal blog; he refused to place it on element14. Unfortunately, because of this, I can't use him as a roadtester anymore.)

     

    Official design challengers need to post on element14. That's the bottomline. Those are the rules.

     

    Now, if they want to post blogs on their personal blogs, that's fine with me.

    I wonder where this idea of posting on personal blog only comes from. We've had many design challenges and this is the first time this seems to have become such an issue.

     

    Clearly, participants don't read or decide to ignore the T&Cs. It's a good thing you are trying to enforce it.

    It feals like this is the first time someone has given the competitions here (road tests and design changes) a real look at to see what is and is not working. Until now it's just been whatever happens happens. Also just to be clear I'm all for this new approach.
