Hello fan club members,
I hope you have seen the contest result this time. We lost by 0.1 marks. Win is a win and loss is a loss, that is what I feel.
I am not sure if you all are following and reading the story and contest results. My sincere request will be to read both the stories and then comment.
I do not want to instigate anyone here. I had a chat with Sumesh and Karish y'day. Me and Sumesh think that it was injustice. Sumesh fought last time also but I have always
made him quiet thinking that we didnt do upto the mark. This time we did a great job, following the rules, regulations and guidelines.
I had a brief chat with the judges about the result. We felt that Amey house story was a little off from the theme. The theme was to write about contestant's first live show during II top 3 contest.
Never it happens in reality that Prime Minister and all the Bollywood bigstars join the show of a not known and famous person. SRK doing the MC for Amey's program. Wasn't that a fan fiction and dream?
Well, to be sure I made few of the forum members read the story, without telling them which group I belong to and I asked them for a fair remarks. Reading the rules and guidelines they said Antara house was best.
I am not questioning the judges. I am not against anyone here. But I always played a fair game and wanted a fair result. It doesnot matter with how many marks who won or who lost.
But it matters to us, the team behind the efforts. We took so much time to dig into the details and then put efforts to make this a great deal. 0.1 marks loss is something we cannot digest. If we would have lost by 3-4 points it makes sense to me that everyone liked the other story best.
Judges felt that both the stories were creative. But I feel that when you have rules, you have to be creative within boudries. If the other group doesnt follow the rules, even if they are creative, they shd get less marks. That is how we felt.
We lost last three times and I always told Sumesh that we will do better next time. But this time even I am feeling same as Sumesh.
We want you all to read the stories and tell us your remarks. If you all are on our side and feel the same, then probably we would want to quit from this contest. There is no point wasting our efforts, time and unnecessary arguements on the forum. We do not want to instigate anyone here. We just ask for your sincere replies. Do you feel the same?
Just let us know what you think.
Please respond.
