How do the officials who select and oversee this manage to be so lazy and careless?

Some winners were selected simply by copying and pasting images, even though the originals weren’t chosen. Out of 20 winners, 5 were selected this way—what a shame, given the 1 in 4 odds. @Edward

All they had to do was select creative and beautiful images and then check to see if there were any duplicates. I took the time to look through the 20 winners and found five who had won with duplicate images. And there might even be some I missed.

At this point, I don’t even believe that the selected photos were chosen fairly. All you have to do is do your job fairly. @Jake7589

In fact, there were even people who copied my photo; when I mentioned this through customer support before the event ended, they assured me they would definitely take it into account and ensure it was selected properly.

Great team %25 scam winners

I thought I could win until I realized the truth after noticing that such an amateurish, careless, and lazy approach had been chosen.
I wrote to support because random people were sharing the image I created. Could you please remove these? Because if they win and no one notices, they’ll receive the prize unfairly—and if I’m not mistaken, 5 out of 20 people received the prize unfairly using copied images.

Hey @turkeywinner

Appreciate the feedback, and I get where the frustration is coming from, fairness across the board is something we genuinely care about.

To clarify, though, both the description and T&Cs made it clear from the start that the winners would be drawn at random, not judged on creativity. So while I understand it's not the outcome some were hoping for, the draw was run exactly as outlined.

So it turns out there’s no need to put in any effort for events like this—we can win just by stealing someone else’s comment and reposting it. It’s good that people know this.

Instead of this explanation, let me give an example: if there are 100 photos, we needed to filter out this kind of plagiarized or irrelevant content and then select one at random from the remaining ones. When I contacted support, they told me that their team was keeping an eye on this.

Your explanation didn’t satisfy me. Of course, they should be chosen at random, but it had to be fair.

The prize wasn't very big, but I was disappointed that you didn't prevent the copycats from winning—it was only a 5- to 10-minute job, and you shouldn't have counted the people who submitted the same images
