Guys, you're famous. Broadly (Vice) has written an article on you.
Some quotes we just have to highlight... as if we didn't love you all already, we are so, so proud of you as a community and your team spirit...

Members of the Competitions Time forum are some of the cheeriest people you'll meet online.
And in a world where trolls and Pepe memes have ruined almost every online space, it might be one of the few positive and friendly corners of the internet left.
Competitions Time feels like stepping back in time to the early halcyon days of the World Wide Web, when all you had to worry about were internet stalkers and the dial-up modem cutting out if your friend called you at home after school. A place on the internet where people are actually nice, and you can also win money or a ski holiday? I could get behind this.
Every person I spoke to commented on the unusual friendliness of the board, which seems hugely counterintuitive given that every comper is engaged in the furious pursuit of competition winnings. It's even weirder when you consider that the lifeblood of the community depends on individual members posting links to contests for other people to enter.

Luckiest? They obviously didn't speak to those of us who have winning droughts last for years on end, but I guess that doesn't fit their agenda."Those who try to make sense of the world are divided into four categories: scientists, theologians, philosophers, and fools. Correction ... make that one category with three sub-divisions" -- Carlo Kensada0
