The Contest

The contest is points based. Whosoever gathers most points at the end of the contest wins (multiple winners).

Ways to gather points -

(Any activity done before the start of the contest will not be considered)

1. Join Skype Indian Public channel (20 points)
PM me or any senior Indian with your Skype name to add you to the channel. If you are already a member, you get 20 points by default.

2. Activity on Skype Indian Public channel
Points will be given (out of 1000 points) based on your %age contribution to total activity in that channel. In simpler terms, chat more (on the public channel) and get more points. Points will be deducted for spamming though.

Say if your activity is 10% of the total activity of channel, then you will get 100 points (10% of 1000.) If it's 20% then you'll get 200 points.

Activity will be calculated using using Skyperious. %age activity will be calculated on the basis of number of characters. Here's an example screenshot:


According to this, Rayne will get 133 points (13.3😵 while I will get 114 (11.4😵.

- Don't worry, activity will be counted only from the start time of the contest so that everyone gets the same baseline.

Details will be published online at the end of the tournament for transparency. Points will be deducted for spamming.


3. Articles

Points will be awarded on the basis of endorsements from eIndian citizens only:
- 2.5 points per 25 INR endorsement
