    Hello All,

    I suddenly went a bit GEEKY :o and decided to time myself filling in all 30 Entries as i had been improving all the time the ways on how best to fill these comps in.

    I managed 30 entries in 9m:35s, or 1 entry every 19.1 seconds.

    after i have completed the first entry, i click onto competitions (L/H side) of the website and then click straight onto the comp i am doing, then as soon as i see any letters (a,b or c) i click my name on the toolbar for ROBOFORM and it fills in all the details whilst i click the answer. This takes about 4 seconds from the last entry.

    I then scroll down quickly to the dreaded code filling ( faster if you have a scroll wheel on your mouse).

    On the new code system have a quick look and give best guess (9 times out of 10 you'll be ok)

    Hope this is a help to some compers

    As this can prove to be a time consuming and tedious comp (not the prize though), how about a bit of fun?

    Does anybody think they they can do it faster?:confused:

    Challenge Extended;) The leader board stands at 9:35s

    Time starts when you click on the lovely link that irisrose:T has put on

    Good Luck All!

    6:50. Who needs Roboform?

    Fill it in the first time, hit enter.

    As soon as you get the confirmation screen, click the back button (or Alt+Left Arrow) and you go back to the previous screen with all the details and a new code.

    Click into the code box, type an approximation and hit enter again.

    The speed of your connection might be a factor, I find the time to check the codes and jump to the confirmation screen is quite variable.

    But thanks to iris and all the others who save me from having to watch the program :-)

    I don't normally enter 30 times as I find it soul destroying to keep entering words that it wont accept, but I did it just for you :D 8 mins and 50 entries - 20 of them saying I'd typed wrong word and I never :eek:
