    Hello, I just want to ask about the contest, can we submit your posts here to digg? I mean, like what Shirley is doing. Is it counted? As what I understand, only this contest post is to be submitted, I’m not sure though that’s why I’m here to clarify things up. Thanks. :)

  41. By Anurag Bhateja on Sep 21, 2009 | Reply

    I never asked to submit any other post. If you like the post you can digg. If you don’t like don’t do it. I will count what I have mentioned :)

    2. If i replying other participant comment, using “reply” button, will it counted as different entry? And is it unlimited accepted? (I mean, can i do replying for some comment in one article and being counted as entry).
