  1. Ohh..missed possibly a great chance. Look at my blogs to see what I scribbled.. :-(

  2. how did i miss the show man .. wont u guys let me know..?

  3. Um… I distinctly recall asking the volunteers at the challenge whether derivatives were allowed. No less than four of them said they very much were. Please, God, please don’t tell me a day before the results that I may possibly have been disqualified! *sobs*

  4. same as nacissa… sobs.

  5. @Susheel and Narcissa:

    Guys don’t worry. Google has relaxed their rules a bit in very city. For instance:

    Delhi got an hour for the same test instead of the 45 minutes.

    B’lore got a relaxation of word limit to upto 250 words…

    So I guess its not a big deal if you used derivatives. Neways, best of luck with your entry.

  6. Any idea where the results will be announced? cant wait!!

  7. @Aastha S:
    The results won’t be announced in any site. It is all thro email notification only. Only the winners will get notified thro their mail. So if you have got a mail it means you are a winner and if by today night you don’t receive any email confirmation then you are not.

    But if you are interested in finding out who the winners are you can:

    obtain the list of the winners by sending a self-addressed stamped envelope to: Google India Pvt. Ltd., Prestige Sigma, No.3, Vittal Mallya Road, Banglore 560001.

    I swear this sounds crazy cauze google’s motto is Info for all people, and here instead of just putting up the results in some website they are going about this sad process where one has to snail mail them to find out the results… I feel this is dumb.

    Neways if any of you know the results please do share it with us here. :)

  8. looks like the toast i ate for breakfast metamorphosized to a million butterflies. been doin nothin but countin the chicken since yesterday- not sure if there were any eggs in the first place- before they hatched (if they ever will). junta (informed junta, that is) keep us lesser mortals posted….

  9. Take it easy, maits — Google is probably trying to kill folks like you with the suspense. :) But I agree it’s not the best way to handle things.

  10. @Hari:
    Its not called keeping a suspense. Its called un-professionalism. Dude does anyone know where to look out for the winners list apart from their email boxes. The irony of it being google is a place where you can get info from :P

  11. well Sagaro…. I know a guy, who’s finished runner up… but who does not want to disclose any informtion about it, unless its confirmed. Once it is confirmed that he has won the prize, I will ask him to mail you. He has just recieved an email that he was the runner up and he got a u huge sunm of money, which is equivalent to flying chennai-singapore-chennai-singapore-chennai-malaysia-chennai.

    hehehe

  12. @Kartik Kannan:
    So they are giving out the results. Cool! I for a moment thought the whole event was a scam. And machan who is that guy da? The GRE dude??? Neways whats the exact prize money?

  13. karthik i have an inkling it is yourself you are talking about. saw on another forum that you have received an email saying you have been shortlisted. way to go dude… hope to have concrete news soon

  14. @Punny:
    Which other forum did Kartik Kannan post on to? I would like to keep an eye on all the forums discussing this so that I can know all the winners.

  15. we’ve only got hoaxes and pjs so far… this is jarring on the nerves. there must be some wise guy who knows whats really happening and laffing foxily at our discomfort (discomfort is an understatement- we are going bonkers).

  16. hi…i participated in the google wordmasters challenge in pune. the results were supposed to be announced on 30 oct. anyone knows where to look up the winners list? i remember the google people had mentioned a url for results but i didn’t note it down.

  17. @Kartik Kannan:
    That was hilarious. I mean the gag. And you feel for that… haha. Ok Ok I really feel sorry for you … yea right :P

    @Punny:
    I think know one knows about it. Google India has forgotten about the competition. At present I am spamming RJ Vijay (googler) and trying source out some info. He hasnt replied to my hajar mails yet…

    @Sandcastle:
    I can assure you google India never gave out any such website url where people can go get the results. So sit tight if you still believe google India is gonna release the prizes… as for me.. I have given upon trusting them any further… The whole event was a huge farce…
