Hi Shilpa, welcome to BPL, I see your comment in Cafe so i assume the problem is sorted out
me liking this…. :beauty:
WOW!! I wanna join too
)) But Mr.Commissioner, can we ‘bid’ for groups?
:rotfl: In the first edition we have no bidding process, ofcourse we can evolve a “bidding” process in the future editions
Welcome to BPL!
Can anyone give an idea what sort of topics would be there?
I can blog about politics, travel, sports, religion etc but if it comes to things like stories, poems or 55 fiction (:-s) then it wont be my cup of tea!
Sanchit , It would be a mixed bag of topics , so you will have your own niche to play! So you can come onboard
Hope to see you in a team!
Ok so i wanna participate but im a comic blogger…can i participate too??
Though we have not planned yet a separate comic topic since it is a very niche topic and not all teams may have a player capable of it but if you think you can do justice to a topic with your comic element , you can participate too
this is a super cool contest guys..wish you all the very best for the contest..
Thanks Neha
Are you not taking part?
I will register right now; but I dunno about taking part..time constraint
still will try my level best..
Welcome to BPL Guria!
I would like, but you have to clarify who will form the GROUP and what would be likely topics to enable me to know if they will be of my kind of writing.
Sir, the team will be formed on a random basis. The registered members will be randomly assigned to different teams. One aspect of BPL is to see how bloggers interact with new set of people, network with each other towards a common team spirit.
About the topics, it will be a mixed bag of topics.
Hope to see you in the playing ground 
This is a super cool one
Thanks Shipla! Hope to see you in the BPL action!

Registration closes on 16th but when the game gonna start?
This sounds super fun and I so wanna join in, but I am over busy till mid July and won’t be able to do justice with participation.
But I am not really sure if I should jump in
Best wishes to all players
I’m in!
Please include genres in which we can write not topics. Something like “Crime” and “Horror”
Topics like “Write something about a car…Inside which a man is smoking…the sun is setting…” etc will only bring shite!
I am not able to write anything on the discussion board…
What to do????
Let the games begin!
When does it start?
How will we be informed?
Tomorrow teams will be announced and day after we will announce the play schedule. The rounds starts this coming week. We will update the news in Cafe GingerChai and in our facebook fan page.
I would request you to update the details on this blog as well (If its possible ) as then it would come in feeds and easier to know.
Regards
Let the games begin:)
Hey ,
I think that the First BPL is over. When do you plan to start with season-2?
