RE: Outdoors and more: Scenery posting contest - 80 Hive to win [Entries now closed]

Hello @galenkp, just yesterday I found out about the contest and I was going to publish now and I was surprised to see that the time had already expired, I thought it was closing later.

Well, thank you very much and anyway my post is about a weekend adventure, so I will post it in your other community.

Sort:  

Ah ok...well, I put the UTC time link in there so people can work out the exact closing time in their own timezone. A pity you didn't use it. That's ok though, all do another one.

I checked and calculated what I could post until 8pm today.

And at 3pm in my country it was ready and when I looked for this post it already said closed.

Well, I used it in the weekend community, thanks.

I know the power went out and the internet is intermittent, I will visit the other posts when it flows.@galenkp

I know some folks have internet issues which make it hard to post sometimes. It's not ideal I guess. I'm sorry that happens to you.

Every day, our electricity is cut off for 6-7 hours and then there is no internet.

I feel like my hands are tied because I created a community with a lot of illusion and love and to be like this makes me desperate.

Thank you for your understanding.

That's terrible. We have the odd power outage now and then, a couple times a year, but it's only for short periods, an hour or so, unless there's a major storm...but that's rare.

I know it makes things difficult for you and others. I guess it's something you have to work around although it's not an ideal situation.

Here it's every day, it's become a nightmare and hive apart from being what keeps me distracted to cope with things is the only income I get.

And the poor state of the communication infrastructure makes things worse.

There are states in the country where telecommunications are better but not where I live, since it is a village, for many reasons I can't leave even if I wanted to. 😪
