Hi, South Africa!
Silexu
Short version
Send me in a message (not comment to this article) up to three pictures that resembles South Africa. If you provide a small text describing the picture it may increase the chance to be voted. You can win 1000CC at the end of the contest.
Deadline for sending pictures is 10:00 eRep time on day 3419. So you have one and a half days to send the pictures.
Long version at the end.
=== Original article ===
Almost one year ago I've started a Globe Trotter Project with the good intention to visit all the countries in eRepublik. Meanwhile I've managed to reach 61 countries and publish as many articles.
You may enjoy the last one, Globe Trotter in Canada which contains, at the end, an itinerary to all the other countries.
South Africa! What an interesting challenge. I grew up hearing from time to time about apartheid and noble fight of Nelson Mandela. Besides that I know nothing about the country.
Are you any of the local South African players playing the game? I would be very happy to get in touch with you. Maybe you can share beauties of your country that not everybody know.
Well, I just had a look on Internet and I already saw amazing places. Do you like to search a little bit and propose some pictures for a Picture Contest? Are there at least two courageous players to compete? The prize will be 1000CC. Just tell me and I will come back with the rules.
I could not stopped myself to post at least a picture.

The Picture Contest
Long version
The project, called Picture Contest, is split in three phases:
- Picture proposal;
- Picture voting;
- Handling the prize (1000CC) to the winner.
Picture proposal
In order to enter the contest you have to provide me, in a private message (not comment), picture(s) from South Africa. They can be personal pictures or can be taken from the Internet. Still as a local player you know the places and you know what to search for. My advise is that the pictures should not be too small; they don't look OK in the article.
You can send me max 5 pictures from every player, please put them in clear order in one message. Please also put a small text describing every picture. If in total there are less than 12 pictures proposed I post all the pictures. Otherwise I will choose the first ones from each player.
The deadline for sending me pictures is 10:00 eRep time on day 3419.
Disclaimer: The pictures you will provide may be part of the final article if there will be a separate one; it would be a pity not to use such beautiful pictures.
Picture voting
After the first deadline I will post all the selected pictures from the received ones (see above about selected pictures per player). I will allow people to vote 3 pictures. The vote deadline will be announced in the contest article.
Handling the prize
I will count first vote as 3 points, second as 2 points and third as 1 point. The picture with most points will be the winner; the player who proposed it will receive 1000CC. If I receive donations I will increase or add prizes for other final places.

Is it a proposal for a picture contest ;O) ?

Lovely river, voted!
this is lazoland not south africa, you are terible missinformed 😛
😉
Thank a lot for support in coming to SA ... sorry Lazoland
There are some actual South Africans here, we are mostly outnumbered by lazocrats though...
The membership of https://www.erepublik.com/en/party/political-freedom-party-4858/1 might give a decent overview of the non-lazocrats...
Nice to hear that are still local players playing the game. Maybe you can suggest some interesting places. If they are as pictures they may go in the Picture Contest 😉

will be great start if you want to learn about the country; all the way from its discovery and settlement by Europeans during the age of discovery and colonization.
or visit a few local newspapers for more current events for a view of how things are under current management. http://citizen.co.za/
