KNP Mammal Challenge - Chats and Discussions

The ones at their placenames are different? Or otherwise they must replace existing ones!

[Flutterby]

I think this must be in addition to the existing ones.

I have posted a rhino at Renosterkoppies for a 3-in-1

Can I post another photo of a rhino at Renosterkoppies?

[Richprins]

[Flutterby]

I would say yes, if it's a different photo. We allow people to post multiple photos of the same sighting with different animals in them, so why is this different?

2. You can only score points once for each single species. You may post pics of male/female/juveniles, but points will only be awarded for the first pic.

Regarding RP's rhino pics. He has already scored points for the rhinnos, so he should only get points for the combination "rhino at Rhino Dam".

The several species in one photo is a different story and a pic of the single animal, if not posted before, is permitted and will score animal points + 50 points.

I think, everyone should be allowed to do another entry for the animal at place name category.

Otherwise all of us will now go and replace their elephants with an ellie at Olifants River - not nice for Flutterby who has to do all the work

This could also apply to the pics with multiple animals...we have already scored points for the individual animals, so why are we allowing it there and not for the location pics? I see this as another category in the challenge, separate from the individual postings.

It also means I would then have to go and check if the poster has already scored points for the individual animals.

I do realize that it is the only way to proceed, now that the "idea" has taken off

Only this last trip I have started writing down the names of the places of sightings
