    Read the Competition Discussion board :)

    Sorry I can't tell you here, but it will start a argument ;)


    Im not sure how u meant that, but it seems like u are angling for an argument, especially by using the winking smiley, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


    Oh God!
    Does everyone think I'm starting a argument!

    It's like people are watching every second of my posts on MSE!

    All I said was for the person to look at this thread, see what the arguments were about and thats it.

    And I used ;) << Doesn't say go start a argument!

    So Please :(

    You could have simply said -

    "Discussions have been ongoing. For further info see Discussion thread."

    rather than the - "hehe - wait til you see this" type winky smiley which I think toni saw.

    I'm sure thats not how you meant it, but its kinda how it reads.

    EDIT: I've re-read the post and think

    Is what changes your winky to a more 'sinister' version. I'm sure its just a typo. :wink:

    Awww no, I hope the comps ending lists don't end up going. I hadn't realised that some people were getting abuse for missing some off etc, that's really nasty if someone is being abusive, unless it was people trying to give advice but it ended up not being worded very well and looked like it was meant nastily but it wasn't iykwim? to some of us not so good at links etc it is a very brave thing to put together the list and I applaud everyone who has a go at doing it, you are all fab.

    I thought it was all working out really well with loads of people starting to volunteer and the list of dates getting filled up really quickly, and its quite an asset to the forum to have the comps ending lists.

    People have been doing really well putting the short but simple message at the top reminding people not to bump unless game over etc and that seems to have worked well, perhaps for a little while there could be one saying what time the next list can be posted from, if the issue of them getting earlier and earlier is happening (although I have seen some people put a message to say they are sorry for having to do it early, but have a good reason etc in some cases). I personally don't mind when they are put on the board, as long as it sticks to being one per day, etc

    Sorry, didn't realise I'd posted so much, I can never explain things simply!!

    Why not? You edit nearly all of yours. I think we should start quoting you like we do Al Mac otherwise after you've changed your posts, the original replies make no sense :)
