what's the reason for specifically excluding quebec?

[Ksenia Shneyveys]

This is most likely due to local regulations that do not allow student contests in the region without prior approval by the local authorities.

quebec moment

even though I'm in quebec, would it still be possible to ""participate"", but then if I ""won"" rather than receiving any prize, I would simply be featured in the list of winners, and the prize would go to the next in line?

eg. if hypothetically I won in position #2, then positions #1, #3, and #4 would receive the prize, and the list of winners (blog post, etc.) would list positions 1 through 4

Let me consult with our legal team about non-competitive participation

[solonovamax]

alright, thanks!

[Giuliopime]

I would be interested in uncompetitive participation too ^^

[Ksenia Shneyveys]

Hi folks, @solonovamax, @Giuliopime, I’ve checked with legal and while we cannot send any major prizes to Quebec and Italy, we can send you t-shirts for non-competitive participation if your submission is considered valid and substantial by the judges.

[Giuliopime]

Appreciate that a lot tysm ❤️

[solonovamax]

alright, sick! (I assume this includes being listed on the list of "winners"?)

[Ksenia Shneyveys]

@solonovamax, since this would be a non-competitive submission, we would only be able to feature it if it makes it to a list of noteworthy projects outside of the top 3.

[solonovamax]

alright, I see

thanks

[Giuliopime]

Just curious, is the noteworthy list mentioned in your last message planned to be published in some sort of blog post or somewhere else?

[Giuliopime]

@Ksenia Shneyveys pinging not sure if you get notis here

[Ksenia Shneyveys]

Hi, @Giuliopime, we’ve decided not to share the list of all or some submitted projects this time. But we’ll consider it for the future!
