Competitions Discussion Thread Part 9

blackmidnight

I agree. I also don't really get the point of the cinema comps thread as the other day I posted some cinema comps there as I assumed that was the point of the thread and didn't want to get 'told off' for posting them on the main board but then someone else posted them on the main board too in which case the cinema thread is pointless.

I have to agree also Cheeky, the Regular board confuses me so i very rarely venture onto it and there is a cross over between the boards. More so on Monthly comps.


Thingamabob - Totaly agree with you re the monthly ones. In my opinion they are individual comps that should be posted on the main board and not even considered for the Monthly thread.

At the end of the day i know i miss a few by not going onto Regulars but to be honest, I get confused, cant be bothered with the hassle as time is precious and have prob entered them once when they were first posted on the main board (GMTV for example)

Prob like most people, if i see a comp such as Glamour that i want to enter and that is a daily i just bookmark it and save it in my favourites.

Have to say I agree with all thats already been said, I rarely venture onto the regular comps board, I have enough to enter just on the main normal board let alone the regular comps. To me it makes more sense having them all in one section, maybe having stickies for daily and monthly comps in the main section, all the comps being in the main bit but links to them in the sticky. But thats just my opinion anyway:D

Also have to say that until blackmidnight mentioned it I had never realised that there was a thread for cinema ticket competitions, Ive always just put them on the main board

I just don't think there's any point in the regulars at all - I just tend to bookmark the ones I want to do everyday or subscribe to the thread so I don't loose it.

I also think that posting the cinema comps on the main boards makes much more sense anyway, I think I remember something about people on the freebies board moaning about cinema comps being posted in the 'free cinema tickets thread' which may be why that thread was created

Wokkies, I have to agree with you. It doesn't seem to be real. Did the email address you with your real name? The website doesn't work anyway.

As an infrequent visitor I just go to main board.

I rarely look at the regulars and presumably miss out on a number of comps.
(I thought it was just me who found it confusing)

To my mind regular comps should include all the ITV comps, maybe in one thread.

Or all the Take A break type magazines in one thread.

Maybe they are already there on one thread, but I don't look.

Thanks to all posters, your hard work is appreciated.

Good luck

If you didn't enter it, you didn't win it. Although I love winning the Nigerian lottery as often as I do; I feel very lucky.
