About the Submission phase

During the Submission phase, entries may be submitted in any language pair, per contest restrictions. Contestants are allowed to edit their entries until the end of the Submission phase.

At the end of the Submission phase, all language pairs with submitted entries will be "paused" for review by the contest administrator.

About the Hybrid phase

During the Hybrid phase, individual language pairs can be placed in any of the Submission, Qualification, or Finals phases, depending on how many entries have been submitted.

Pairs which received fewer than 3 entries during the Submission phase will likely be placed in an "extended submission" period. If at least 3 entries are eventually submitted, the pair will be moved forward to the Finals phase.
Pairs which received between 3 and 7 entries will likely be placed directly into the Finals phase, where site users who list that language pair in their profile may vote for what they feel are the best entries.
Pairs which received more than 7 entries will likely be placed into the Qualification phase, where site users rate and tag entries in an effort to determine a smaller pool of entries which should move forward into the Finals phase.

About the Finals phase

During the Finals phase, all language pairs which have received at least 3 entries will be open for site users to vote for what they feel are the best entries. Pairs with fewer than 3 entries will not be able to have a winner determined.

At the end of the Finals phase, votes will be tallied by site staff, and winners in each pair will be announced.

This was the first part of a three-part translation mash-up that took place in October, 2018, and that consisted in the translation of the song "Dust Bowl" by Joe Bonamassa in three different instances:

Part I - Web-based: everyone was invited to propose their translation of the first part of the song through the ProZ.com web and participate to become the winner in their language pair.

Part II - Mobile-based: mobile users were invited to propose their translation of the second part of the song through ProZ.com Mobile (the free ProZ.com mobile app).

Part III - Social network-based: ProZ.com followers on Facebook were invited to propose their translations of the last part of the song through the ProZ.com Facebook page and have the chance of winning a nice set of prizes.

Dust Bowl mash-ups made out of winning entries in each language pair will be published soon.
