First, as far as you can post/comment, there is no issue from our end on why you should not have been able to make your submission tonight.

Secondly, as we always encourage, test/practice/be familiar with submission process before any main competitions. This affords you the opportunity to know which browser or interface (mobile or computer), etc. might be best to participate with.

You are quite familiar with the Forum yourself, immediately you noticed this (tonight), you could have got in touch with us (as we respond immediately on WhatsApp) and we would have tried to assist in understanding what the issue might be.

Thirdly, it is possible your network is a reason for this.

In addition, perhaps the file size may have been too big for your network to process. From our end we place no limit on file size but encourage, you keep it sizeable.

Lastly, to assist for subsequent edition you could share (here or on WhatsApp) what the error message you received in not being able to submit tonight.

I hope these helps. Thank you.

Nothing is ambiguous - everything is clear.

Just hope this comment is not to imply 'foul play'.

First, as pointed out in a previous comment, as far as you can post/comment, there is no issue from our end on why you should not have been able to make your submission tonight.

Secondly, Ezeno Izuchukwu Kingsley was able to upload/submit and gracefully made the admission that his network was the limitation. This is only his second post ever on our platform. His last was 5 months ago.

My work. Please pardon me on late submission , i am having network problem.

Thirdly, last month's winner had also had difficulty in submission in the February edition. I gave her similar advice as stated on my previous comment.

Please check properly again from your end and still let us know if you have issues with the process. Thank you.

When I clicked on submit, it loaded but didn't upload to the site, I was thinking maybe cos I am using a mobile phone?

Possibly network issues and I do not think it is because you are using a mobile phone.

However, please as stated previously, test/practice/be familiar with submission process before any main competition. This affords you the opportunity to know which browser or interface (mobile or computer), etc. might be best to participate with.
