Voting phase for Picture Contest will start soon.


[Update]
As I received already pictures from two players I will post the rules for the Picture Contest.

The Picture Contest
Short version
Send me in a message (not comment to this article) up to three pictures that resembles Russia. 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 3439. So you have almost two days to send the pictures.

[Original article]
More than one year ago I've started a Globe Trotter project and visited 64 countries by now. You may enjoy the last one, Globe Trotter in United Arab Emirates and at the end, in the Itinerary section, you can navigate to all the other countries visited.

Back to Europe, or not? As one of the few countries that spans on two continents, Russia is the largest country in the world. With a various geographic landscapes and cities with old history I am expecting to find many interesting things to post about it.

Happily the Russian community is also big so I have great hopes that we can organize a picture contest here. So please don't be shy and share the beauties of your country! If there are at least two courageous players to send me some pictures we will organize a Picture Contest. Just tell me and I will update this article with the rules. The prize for the best picture is 1000CC.

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 Russia. 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 3439.

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.

I apologies that the article is not written in the Russian language or alphabet, my knowledge about them is very limited. Thus following article(s) will be also written in English so other international players may enjoy the beauty of Russia.
