Competitions Discussion Thread Part 8

ginjim

well it doesnt always work like that think it depends whos looking down at you from above
there was one member who was part of the mse compers but she left to go over there because she was not treated fairly over here (she went on other threads)
anyway she came back and said she was winnig loads over there and was happy few months later she started threads saying she aint winning anything and was considering giving up.

just recently another comper (wouldnt say complain but felt she hadnt won anthing in august ) landed a fantastic win this month

maybe a good ole moan helps and god takes pity on you.

people have droughts and feel their lucks in
then lady luck ignores them for ages

Hi hope someone can help, I'm wanting to enter some comps, but I can't get this search by date thing right!

I put it in properly, I swear! I'd obviously like to enter ones that are near to ending, before I start on the ones further back.

Hope someone can help!

its all explained in the comping tips thread

as ginjim said, read the comping guide as that will explain it all

taken from guide:

You can change the Forum thread order to sort posts by end date. Simply go to the bottom of any Forum page & on the left hand side is ‘Display Options’. Click on the ‘Sorted By’ dropdown & then select Thread Title. All 200 odd pages are now listed in Thread Title order.

Each thread will now be listed by the ending date used in the thread title. This means that the threads which end on a particular date will be grouped together - you will just need to find out which page they start from & then you are ready to enter comps for a particular end date.

Does anyone think that getting rid of the comps ending has increased their winnings? Since the comps ending list went I've won loads more... is it just coincidence?
