Pick this Place Winners

Hi All,

It should be obvious that one should not submit an entry to Pick this Place for photos that they have submitted. Sometimes we use photos that people have submitted months even years ago and sometimes people forget. The places system was coded to ensure that entries from the submitter would not be accepted but somehow this seems to have failed in this case and the error has been passed to David to add to his “To Fix List”. In the mean time please do not bend the system by submitting entries for photos of your own as they will be automatically voided as in this case.

That's cool Andrew.
In this case the Point Ellen email for Point Ellen was sent to us back in 2006. We do get a lot of entires but unfortunately we cannot use a lot of them because of either:

a) there is no lat/long or description
b) the place in the photo is much too easy or way too hard
c) it's an object and not a place as such
d) the place has no common name and may be a made up name
e) some other minor reasons

We are running a bit low in quality Pick this Place submissions and are asking if you can help keep this competition running by submitting your email to damian@exploroz.com

Please include: Place Title, State, Lat/Long, Good Description and about two or three photos so we can choose one for the competition.

Many thanks

I saw the new place photo and thought "I have been there."

Spent some time thinking about where it might have been and came up with southern KI. Opened up OziExplorer to look at some maps, took a shot an won. WOW I was excited and scrolled down to see who submitted it. WHOOPS!!! Oh Embarrassment. :o(

It must be the seniors moments catching up. I submitted the shots back in April 2006 and had forgotten all about it. If the system can't stop dumb mistakes like mine I am no longer taking the risk of playing.

Pete, red faced and feeling stupid.
