Ha^y Dieuvuong,
As you said that you had not checked mail because you were too tired. OK? Could you make more clear that you went to bed because you were tired Or you went to bed so you were tired. (As I know that you have just married with very nice girl. )

Plesea discuss more at the English zone If you are interested. Here you are

Hi Duc,

I have got your email and really appreciated your suggestions. I will add your other email address so that you can check the emails easier. It was just because I did not want to spam you in the working mailbox in case your supervisor wants to have a look at it .

Happy wedding (although a little bit late).

@Duc: could you please write some comments and your suggestions about how to write/ what is a good essay in the topic "Scoring Criteria".

hxl đã viết:In my opinion, its necessary to define the role of each examiner. For example, who is responsible for content or grammar checking, etc. I dont have discrimination, but I prefer QB people (or more specific QBO members such as Rec, Math0, etc.) to be responsible for post content. I mean, QB people can understand and feel better about what contestants try to express.

Dear hxl,

As a judge, who is not a QB resident, I understand your concern. However, I will guarantee a sound judgement on my part. There are only 2 of us and 4 of the judges are QB residents. If we don’t understand something, there are still 4 judges that outweighs the decisions and help us understand more about the contestant.

However, keep in mind that in the real world, contestant might not be working with QB residents. I believe that it is also the contestant’s responsibilty to make the judges understand their messages and their statements of intent. Sometimes, I say things in Vietnamese and use the wrong word choice, which create a lot of misunderstanding. Therefore, I have simpathy for your concern. But then after I clear things up and tell the person that that is not what I meant, he or she shows me the right vocabulary to use so that I can communitcate better.

I just want to let you know that the judges don’t do this for profit. I do this because I care about Vietnamese students, whether they are QB residents or not. If I don’t understand you or QB, I want to, and perhaps you can tell me about QB through your essay. Please don’t think of us as robots that we can only correct grammars or spellings. We have hearts too and they beat just like yours. Sometimes, you might even be surprise that it is not just the QB people who understand you most but also those from all around the world. Just like in certain cases, there are parents who don’t understand their kids as much as the friends do, but yet the kids have known their parents for the longest.

I appreciate you sharing your opinions and concerns, I love it when people speak their mind. I wish you the best of luck and hope that you will be entering the contest because I’m looking forward to a wonderful essay.

Sincerely,
Thiên Bình

Hi Rec, I think in this case we can understand it by exhauted meaning, "too tired" won't describe the meaning of "mệt lữ " OK?
But I can not explain the reason why he was so exhauted!

I totally agree with Thien Binh for his/her response to hxl. Quang Binh resident or not is not an important thing for the examiner to criticize and catch the spirits of the essays. Moreover, if one essay tells about Quang Binh can help the others who are not Quang Binh resident can understand more about our hometown, isn't that a great thing?

Riêng đã viết:... isn't that a great thing?

You are right, Rie^ng.

Ok, Ok. All off you are right. Please do not think that I am a yes-man. I mean that we are disscussing!

Oh, my God, I don't think that this discussion will go by this far. And I also remember that I already explained why I was so exhausted - hi hi not exhauted - for having lots of office meetings, and being busy for having the 1st floor's ceiling built). OK guys????????

Dear Thien Binh,
You should reply earlier .
If I hurted you so Im so sorry. But as I said, I have no discrimination. Its just my personal preference.

What all you said was true but you also said "sometimes". It means, in general, QB people can understand better than others. When I posted my opinion, I knew nothing about you and I think other members like me too. You rarely come and discuss in this forum. I dont know Rec too but why I trust him, cause I read his posts and know that he's ( you should say thank to me ). To avoid it, pls express your ideas more here
I know, you do it without profit and you also invest it too. Im so affected. Good job
Now, the program committee is defined. Im satisfied so we dont have to talk about it any more.
Your sincerely.

Gửi các thành viên trong nhóm Judge,

Dưới đây là link đến trang thông tin về profile trên website chính thức của Contest. Hiện mới có 3 thành viên có hình, số còn lại chưa có hoặc mình đã có nhưng chưa được phép của mọi người nên chưa dám đưa lên web. Vậy, mong mọi người đồng ý để đăng hình cá nhân (size nhỏ ~ ảnh 4x6) đồng thời chọn và gửi cho mình (nhtinhqb@yahoo.com.vn) một hình của các giám khảo để mình cập nhật.

Có thể việc này sẽ gây phiền lòng chút ít, mong mọi người hiểu và thông cảm.

Chân thành cám ơn.
