Hi, Latvia!

Day 3,424, 12:34 • Published in Latvia North Korea • by Silexu

[Update 2]
Because of misunderstanding regarding the place where the rules were posted I will extend the deadline for sending pictures with one more day: 10:00 eRep time on day 3427

[Update]
I received only two pictures from a player (not the one that expressed interest in the beginning ;O).

Aren't there any Latvian player that wants to share about his/her country?

We already have one participant interested in the Picture Contest so I will post the rules. I would love to have at least one more, or even 3-5 ;O), in order to start the contest.

The Picture Contest
Short version
Send me in a message (not comment to this article) up to three pictures that resembles Latvia. 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 3426. So you have one and a half days to send the pictures.

Long version at the end.

[Original article]
Interesting architecture, beautiful historical places including castles and old towns, astonishing nature landscapes, the place where two seas met. Did I draw your attention?

The last Baltic country I am visiting in the project I've started almost one year ago: Globe Trotter project.
From the 62 visited by now, you may enjoy the last one, Globe Trotter in South Africa. At the end, in the Itinerary section, you can navigate to all the other countries visited.

As in other articles I am wandering how many local players are still actively playing the game? Would you like sharing some hidden gems from your country? If there are at least two courageous players to send me some pictures we my organize a Picture Contest. In the last two countries it was interesting, you are not less active than that. And the prize for the best picture is 1000CC. Just tell me and I will come back with some rules.

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 Latvia. 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 3426.

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.
