Date of Birth
I'm reluctant to give out my full personal details online, so often slightly change the day and month of my date of birth when entering competitions from companies I'm not sure of. Has anyone ever had trouble claiming a prize because they have done this?

Q about competition links
Hi everyone This might seem like a silly question but does it lessen your chances of winning if you enter a competition via a link on here?

Does anyone else have any comping superstitions?
Just wondered if I am the only strange one? Here is mine - I will never sell a prize - Everything I have won I have either used or given away. I have a bit of a "karma" problem and feel that if I did then the comping fairy would disappear forever (and she is quite good to me!) In the past top prizes I have given away to…

Posters who miss out the end date ...
Just a thought for those who ask posters to amend their thread title because the end date is missing - I've had better results by PM'ing the link to the post in question and the message i.e. 'Could you please edit the title of your thread ...' I've still put the message in the thread itself in case they check there, and to…
