The Partiko Mascot Contest is now officially over and we are so happy to see so many wonderful entries submitted. @partiko will be responsible for selecting the final winners, please be patient. :) However, recently I have encountered some entries which involve plagiarism and I am here to say NO to the scammers, and that’s why I think including drawing procedures in the selecting criteria is SO important.
Some entries seem to be directly copied from the existing pictures found on google. Here are some of the examples that I found:
All entries which involve plagiarism are not a valid entries and the post may be flagged. Also, the user will be blacklisted from joining the future contests. If you find some suspicious entries which seem to involve plagiarism, please let us know. We cannot tolerate these scammers continually polluting our STEEM blockchain. At last, hope all the participants have enjoyed the contest and don’t forget to visit their posts and give them an upvote if you like their work :) We will announce the winners very soon.
