    :hello:,

    I enter as many as I possibly can,I cannot count how many I enter as I find so many competitions to do,not just on this board but on other websites :)

  • I don't think you're going to win much only entering 5 a day, unless you're very lucky!! ;)
    I enter at least 80 per day depending on the day really. It takes a while for your wins to start. Try to enter as many as you can every day then that will increase your chances. :D

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

  • For me it depends on what I'm doing that night after work but I guess on average I'll enter about 30 competitions a night, all through this board. Thank goodness for Robo-Form!
    Back comping after a wee while off!

    I only enter through this board, some days i dont do any then other days spend ages doing as many as possible.

    :dance:Carry on Comping :dance:
  • I reckon I must be averaging at least 40-50 a day. But like a lot of people have said it does take a while for wins to start catching up with you.
    Comps usually have an end date in the next month and even then it can take another 4 weeks for you to be informed of a win.

    I'd step up the entries and persevere. :)
    For me its become a great distraction, it takes up time I would usually use spending money I don't have. :D

    I'm on and off here all day really. Whenever I get a spare 10 mins I catch up and then when the kids have gone to bed I finish off what i've missed. There are quite a lot of daily entry comps at the monent too which add to the total every day.

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D

    I enter almost all the ones posted here, not sure how many that equates to per day. The only one's I don't enter are holidays for 2 or foreign holidays.

    I also enter the regular comps too, I had a break in June/July and only started again the last week of August and have had 5 wins from those so it's luck & patience

    I enter as many as I have time to. Normally I just try and keep up with the ones posted on here as they take most of my time, I will enter any others I come across but really it is just here. Dont know how many I enter per day, probably near 100?
