Justification of why we picked Faruk's review, and a surprise twist at this post... http://www.royalchallengers.com/blog/goof-ups-aside-new-winner-declared
nidhi@RCB on 14 May 2010, 12:06 PM
Cheers, Anisha .... this was probably the second most-heated post this IPL, after all the anti-Kallis posts during IPL-3.
Prometheus on 14 May 2010, 11:50 AM
Your comments are all valid. Have just discussed with the judges and we'll be making an announcement in ... 10-15 minutes (about how long it'll take me to write up the blog post..)
and Prometheus, thanks for clarifying ;) sorry about the goof up. I've updated the post

srishti-gajare on 14 May 2010, 10:58 AM
i did not take part in review competition,i believed i didnt have the quality,,bt nw i think i am better than selected winners in phase2;
iam confused nw,,in phase 3
should we write about RCB or our players,or players of other teams like yuvi,sangakkara,ishant,goni........,who had nothing to do with our sucess,,,JUDGES please explain the criteria of ur selection

Congratulation winners!
I am sure Anisha will come up with sort of explaination soon. Looks like Faruk is rewarded for thinking 'out of the box'. But the problem is noone else knew it was allowed and they were all boxing in the box...It also looks like the "collective reviews" were preferred over the "match by match" review (Sachin's was an exception).
Well, we can only guess till we get some explanation from the judges.
Such contests are always subjective and we can all afford to be judges. I didnot participate in the contest and to my un-biased eyes, Prometheus's (Varun) review was the best.

STILL NO COMMENT FRM ADMIN OR FRM JUDGE???????
MrNiceguy on 14 May 2010, 08:03 AM
congo guys...
i like this statement from varun..
But this time, Sreesanth must have silently giggled to himself...it wasn't him but Brett Lee who's confidence got punctured (25 runs in the 17th). :)

Pun33t on 13 May 2010, 10:36 PM
On the right side of the IPL contest page a list of our matches is there but Faruk neither wrote about RCB nor about the IPL matches. His review was basically about the players of all the teams which didn't reach the semis whom we don't really care about. If I knew this was allowed, I would have written about Kings XI and made fun of them. Nonetheless I still have a chance to make fun of Deccan Chargers in Phase 3.
ashetty21 on 13 May 2010, 09:11 PM
Congrats Winners! Not undermining the efforts of the 2nd runner up but the flak that his selection in the top 3 has received, is valid.
disha-shetty on 13 May 2010, 08:17 PM
Congrats to all the winners.Special thanks to anisha for keeping RCB fans going even after end of the IPL Season.
I am excited to participate in the review contest

Winning or losing a competition, is a part of the game, however, the playing field should be level for all.
While writing the reviews, one thought that the focus has to be on quality, analysis and relevance. However, the choice of winners tells something else.

Congrats all winners sad i missed out winning another competition will come back with the 3rd review will try ma best out der to win . Just had a small doubt abt the II runner up i mean isn't this competition abt the second phase of the rcb season ??? well if it isn't ok he deserves it anyways pls do look into it cos we need to stick to the topic to avoid complaints and criticism hoping u guys would do a much better job in tht thnkin u will come back with a much better review next time :)
PrinceDravid on 13 May 2010, 07:11 PM
Looks like some people has not written any review they just read the reviews and comments here. As far as popular reviews go i think if i have 100 friends in this RCB website and even though my review is poor they will vote that review. So at the end it should be both popular reviews and good writing that should be considered for the prizes.
All said i think Varun and Sheffins reviews were also good.

Dear soleiletchiots: u got da point which the organizers didn't lets woke them up
MrNiceguy on 13 May 2010, 06:52 PM
'IPL Review is a contest of RC's performance post IPL 2010 amongst RC fans! You can talk about the highs and lows of RC this season. You can be our best or worst critic! Talk about the team's performances, strategy, dropped catches etc.'
Even I am miffed at the selection of the second runner up and I am not even participating in the contest so I have no agenda here. The person's review had nothing do do with our team. I agree with what others have wriiten, there are more deserving candidates.

Congrats all the winners, you all deserved it. I also wrote a nice review and will continue trying hard to win in the III phase.
shwethsach on 13 May 2010, 06:46 PM
Ah thaught d judges would like some review which is of a person's own n not dat of a person sitting opening ten site n writing...but who know who r judging us...congrats winners what else could i say now... :(

sheffin on 13 May 2010, 06:16 PM
dear Prometheus: this contest is for analysis of team rcb performance in ipl divided into 3 phase.And not about individual players agenda. judges should know the rules of the contest before declaring the winner they can't break rules as they like. it hurts as a rcb fans
MrNiceguy on 13 May 2010, 05:55 PM
@Sheffin...Liked your review, man. Good Stuff!! But let's not be sore losers here. The kind of insight you put into your review, I'm pretty sure you'll come up trumps in IPL-Phase III, so don't lose heart. And it's pointless screaming at Anisha. From what I've heard, it's a bunch of people who decide the winners and not Anisha alone. So i think it's unfair to point fingers at her. Looking forward to your Phase-III review, dude!!!

MY REVIEW WAS FAR BETTER THAN 2ND RUNNER UP VIEW MY REVIEW @ http://www.royalchallengers.com/ipl-2010-review/MrNiceguy
MrNiceguy on 13 May 2010, 05:47 PM
not only the 2nd runnerup
i can find atleast 10 reviews,which was far better than top 3,,i am sure u people will also agree
why r u keeping a most popular column if u r not considering that
deeply dissappointed as a true RCB fan,,
reselect the winners

I THINK THE CONTEST IS GOING ON TO ANALYSIS THE PERFORMANCE OF TEAM RCB IN IPL 3 AND NOT ABOUT PLAYERS OF OTHER TEAMS. JUDGES AND ADMIN SHOULD CLARIFY TO OTHER WHY THEY R RUNING THE CONTEST BREAKING UR OWN RULES.......
2ND RUNNER UP REVIEW IS NO WHERE COMES TO THIS CONTEST ..... A FLOP DECISION

MrNiceguy on 13 May 2010, 05:35 PM
thats what i also told varun,his review had nothing to do with RCB,thus should not have been considered at all,,
fairly i think there were many other reviews better than the top 3 selected ones
this is truely unfair for us,,

sheffin on 13 May 2010, 05:29 PM
Don't mean to be a spoil sport but to be honest, I'm a little surprised at the selection of the 3rd winner. I couldn't see anything related to RCB in it. It was a general "why IPL players flopped" write up!!
Prometheus on 13 May 2010, 05:16 PM
shocking!!!!
i have read many reviews,i am sure,there were altleast 10-15 reviwes better than the winning ones
@anisha,,,,all the 3 reviews lacked good analysis of 7 RCB matches,,2nd runnerup has mentioned nothing about RCB,,,yoi have to explainnn ur selection
truely UNFAIR to others

deeply disappointed with our selecton of winners
this contest is to review the rcb's performance ,
2nd runner up faruk hosain has mentioned nothing about RCB'S performance;or any of its players,,he talked about yuvraj,warner,ishant those players have nothing to do with our performance
Varun Hotanakatte was far far better than first 3 winners;
my review i believe was better than the winners
http://www.royalchallengers.com/ipl-2010-review/sheffin
not only myne there were many,,go look at popular reviews,,i bet u can find better ones than the picked ones
