Rules and Important Notes from Light Ohio Blue Staff

***NEW VOTING STYLE FOR 2024***

To place your vote, look for the Heart icon.

• A visitor may submit a rating on any/all photos once per day. 
• Rating limits reset at midnight Eastern.
• Each photo can be given a rating of 1 – 5 stars.
• Each star awarded is added up.
• The photo with the most overall stars at the end of the voting period wins.
  

The voting format change allows visitors to rate more than one photo in each contest, each day. Visitors have five stars to give out for each photo, each day. Voters are encouraged to rate each photo.

The contest runs from 9/11/2024 through 9/30/2024.  Voting will open at 12am on 9/11/2024 and close at 11pm on 9/30/2024.

Photo submissions will open on 08/11/2024.

Votes may not show up immediately, or vote counts may appear off due to website caching. Each confirmed/fair vote is logged in the database and will count at the end of the competition.

The fairness of each contest will be kept at the forefront of Light Ohio Blue’s mind and as such, anti-cheat systems are in place. 

Categories may be combined if needed based on the number of photo submissions in a category.

IP-based voting restrictions may not allow multiple individuals from within one agency/organization to vote using a device connected to their agency/organization’s network.  If this occurs, you are encouraged to vote using a cellular device that is not connected to your agency/organization’s WIFI.

Unforeseen errors may occur and Light Ohio Blue Staff reserves the right to address any issues and select the best possible outcome.  Any votes that are deemed to be submitted via bot/script or any other methods deemed unfair, will be disallowed. Light Ohio Blue is not responsible for any device issues.

Questions can be sent to staff@lightohioblue.org.  We will attempt to answer as soon as feasible.
