Jacky's Valentine's Day Competition draws 400 entries.

Jacky’s hosted its Valentine’s Day competition from 30 Jan to 12 Feb 2012 to celebrate love with a twist of fascination for gadgets and provide a platform of expression and sharing in the form of competition. 

The Jury and team has taken all care to ensure that all the entries were given its due worth however the competition was stiff and there could only be three winners.
The Three most heartiest entries that have been chosen Winners by our JURY are as follows:

******
Samay Majhi - Winner | 2 * Iphone 4S
Loreamel Bunyi-Vespiras - Runner up 1 | 2 * Sony Tablet
Sanju Scaria - Runner up 2 | 1* Shaver & 1 * Epilator
  ******
To all our ardent fans and all the community members who have painstakingly contributed and followed the competition, we would like to share our approach and behind-the-scene work that reinforces our responsibility to our fan community and commitment to conduct in fairness.  

The competition ran over 14 days and drew whopping 400 entries. The Competition was closely monitored on daily basis; for fairness edited entries were NOT considered despite some with higher Likes than other.  While there was community led policing and reporting of the fake likes on our wall, our team engaged in detailed screening of all entries for identifying Fake profiles, Fake Profile likes, no referral likes that eventually were eliminated. All comments were moderated by Jacky’s; certain comments that have been deleted are due to abusive language.

Entries have been shortlisted on the criteria of authenticity, creativity, uniqueness, personal relevance in the message and relevance to gadgets along with public likeability. There have been entries that have been more creative but with lesser likes and couldn’t be considered for shortlist whilst entries with high number of likes but falling short on the other criteria. The Entries that have won the competition have scored well across over all the criteria’s. 

We maintain that the judgment has been fair and believe that most of the participants acknowledge it. 

The Essence of any competition is participation and fun, which undoubtedly has been brought about by each participant and we can’t thank enough for everybody’s contribution. 

Being a competition, we expect most of the people will sport the underlying spirit. While winning remains important, it’s VITAL to play to one’s true potential and take the result in a positive stride.

Hope you have a great Valentine's with your loved ones and spread the Cheer :-)

  1. Jackies you have completely done a wrong thing for the competition that had been happenining for the past couple of days ...you were really unfair!!! if u are hosting competitions in a social network site like facebook and twitter make sure that you keep your word...if it is a competition saying the person with most number of likes wins this then keep ur word ...dont ditch and mislead by awarding prize to people with the least likes....i completely was angered by this matter and i look forward that u do better next time ...cuz already few people like me have lost interest and we won't take part in any further competitions that you host and we will spread words to others as well!! ...very very dissapointing indeed !!

  2. Jackys you were totally unfair in your decision. I thought you guys would make a sensible decision. But looks like it was big time blunder!! am sorry to say. You need to stick on to the competition rules that you come up with, you can't be changing your rules according to your convenience. You have mentioned in your competition rules that, Message should be LESS THAN 100 WORDS. the 2nd winner she has written an Essay about her kids being happy and something about a telephone, which dint make sense to most of us at all. am sure her message was MORE THAN 100 words if at all that message was very sensible for you jackys. Forget about the people who had fake likes or changed their message during the competition, there where many people who had pretty cute messages who never changed their message through out the competition. And at the end you guys looked for the weirdest messages that you claiming it was the best. Honestly wont make a mistake in joining your competition any more and would spread the word to others as well. Be professional when u conduct a game! thanks

    Below 100 words limit was on of your requirements and criteria...there was 1 winner with more than 100words...
    and what do u mean by the highest like and best post!!!
    there was someone who joined few hrs before the competition ends and she just had 3likes and nothing so new and hearty about her post...
    plz stick on to your word!! such a reputed company have spoiled their name in front of around 12000 fans!!!

    1. collect some pics from google

  6. Thank you for comments and feedback, we are confident of the process followed in screening and finalizing winners. As mentioned that there were whopping 400 entries and prize winners could only be three including two runner-up.

    This doesn't belittle the efforts put in by each participant of this competition. We wish you all the best for the next competition and a great Valentine's day with your loved ones.
