    It's saying question 4) Brazil is the wrong answer
    is it Italy ???
    Big Thanks to all who post on the comps board

    Yes, you are correct badgermum, I've edited my post with the answers now.

    I spent around 1/2 hour searching all the answers to post this comp, only to find it had just been posted by someone else, so I posted the answers from memory, and obviously got that one wrong... :o

    Memory isn't what it used to be! :D

    Sorry, but it would be absolutely tremedous if if Angelic would at least amend the OP with the answers to the comp, to save members trawling the posts for the answers... :mad:

    Next time, I'll just chuck the comp on the board with no correct link or any answers.

    ;)


    Best way apparently... :rotfl:

    personally i don't see the sense in posting a comp without the answers, especially these types of ones :o
    someone ages ago (about 2 yrs ago) used to put a direct link on for them & it was agreed they could tell if you'd done the quiz or not,
    have been searching for the post but was so long ago can't find it :o
    thank you MD for providing & taking the time to do the answers,that's proberly why you got pipped as you took the time to do it the right way & i'm sorry to say but i don't think it's very helpful to just post a comp like these without the correct way to do it :o & agreed the op should update all the info from weeowen & you as you've done the hard work for it :o

    ETA.. it's a bit like if tmen put the radiotimes comp on without the answers
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    Without wishing to upset anyone I have agree with MD & Korky.I am not the most computer literate person in the world at all but I'd guess that there are systems in place that can see where we have linked from.I know a lot of blogs use the software available to do this.If we do not link form the question page we may not qualify.
    It may sound paranoid but it for this reason that I always paste links in a new tab for all the TAB,Puzzler comps.Just in case they have a downer on people who do not buy the magazine.
    Thanks to all members for their efforts but let's not trip ourselves up on the small details.

    Details of how we may be spotted are here
    There are lots of programs available to spot this bit I'm off comping now :-)
