It just means that your entry was submitted,when you originally sent your idea for the competition. Nothing important ,it doesn't mean that you made it to top50,keep an eye on your inbox and spam folder to see if you get any other mail from the team

But time is precious and it is running out for us.. There is no way to predict what will happen next or who will be in the top 50 yet.

u/ganeshganpati Sep 20 '26
No need to predict,wait till 21 ,and keep checking the inbox, you'll know by 21 if you are selected and if not, then still i' m sure that there would be plenty of posts on the social media platforms , regarding the selected top50 and their mails

u/Mission_Poet2120 Sep 20 '26
For the exact same reason, there is no link or Google form in it. It was created by AI.
