This only appears to be the case with Firefox, Chrome seems unaffected. On the main Competition page - or any page on the website, I can't see any of the sub-forums. When I…

2020 Advents
How we all doing, any wins yet? The Advent board seems pretty quiet this year, I wonder if people are 1) not finding the forum or 2) just not doing them this year? To be honest, I've barely done any this year.

Bookmarked threads....
In the old, and so much missed, MSE version, we could sort our bookmarked threads and decide whether we wanted no email notifications, instant, daily, etc... Is there a way of doing this now?

Hi all. I sometimes enter the postal comps (e.g. The Gadget Show, I'm a Celebrity etc), and was wondering if I should continue to use envelopes, as I currently use, or postcards, which might be easier for them to get my info off. Any thoughts on this?
