I'm a bit confused re the advents as well. Should they be posted on the main board or the regular board or just to the advent thread?

There are several already posted. For example there's an up and running Haggis Hunt thread already consisting of several pages.

I've just found another advent comp in my email, and am unsure of what to do with it.

Can someone advise, please.

I understand them not being in the dailies, as it would make the thread way, way too big !!

Were they posted and then linked to the Advent thread last year ? I can't remember........

toniq

i looked at last years thread and its a chaotic thread with answers for some of the daily q's all over the place xxx

As i see it, dailies are regular comps throughout the year and advents are special just for the month of dec, personally I would like different threads (just my opinion), would it make the dailies huge?

The daily thread is large now. Linking the Advents as well would make it gigantic.

My preference would be for individual posts being linked to the Advent thread. Then each thread would be able to be commented on, but the entry would be easier with links from one thread.

As far as I can see, it's just a list of competitions.

Why do they need to have a dedicated thread?

In my opinion they should be posted just like normal competitions, with an end date.

But then I think the same about the dailies.

Sorry folks, just seems to be a method of causing work and confusion, in my opinion

You forgot to say 'bah humbug' !!!
