We are Listing the Top 10 contenders for Round 1 but Not Revealing the Winners This Time.
Reason? We have decided to further gamify this contest and factor in the feedback of our fantastic community. If you are one of the finalists or rooting for one of these to win, you have a chance to convince the judges by commenting on this announcement why they should win.
You can share this announcement on social media with your followers to add more comments to convince the editorial! We will feature the best comments in our winners’ announcement.
We have shortlisted the top 10 stories on the following factors:
- Content relevancy and quality
- Originality - only those stories have been shortlisted that are published first on HackerNoon
- Total number of reads proportionate to the reading time. (We monitor bot traffic, so a higher number of reads doesn’t automatically qualify your story to be in the top 10).
Congratulations to the top 10 finalists because two of you will win from $2000!
What will happen next? Our Editors will vote on these stories, and the winner will be announced in October.
Before listing the finalists, here’s a quick shoutout to the contest’s sponsor:
