    EDIT to add: This one (BELOW) has started already but am sure the comps are posted on main board so be extra CAREFUL!

    Hello :)

    I've tried two email addresses and both say I've already entered today - does anyone know why? It's the first time I've tried this comp? Also, what do I need to be careful of? :)

    I think this is a link to last years comp. ellasmommy says "Am sure this one will be back" but presumably it isn't yet.
    The "be careful" comment relates to the Channel4 link and you need to be careful as the comps included have already been posted on the main board and you may have already entered them. However entering twice does not disqualify you on Channel 4 comps, they just treat multiple entries as one entry. This is not strictly an advent comp, merely a collection of comps and offers that are (or have been, some of the comps have already ended) on the Channel 4 web site.

    What is an advent comp? I wasn't here last christmas, so I don't know. Is it a comp that runs for the whole of December, the 12 days of advent, for an advent calendar? Don't want to put the wrong comp. in the wrong place. Oooh I am all of a dither now:o
    On some of the advent comps you have to visit each day and open a door (a bit like an advent calendar) - I won a PDA on one like this but had to visit each day for my entry to be valid.

    Others involve collecting answers to questions or answering a question each day.

    I got tangled up in an advent competition on the Samsung website last year which involved finding the answer to the question on the website each day. Some of the questions were extremely different to find and at the end I didn't win anything at all (just lost a lot of time I'll never see again).
