    OMG I hope so , I just think its to easy to dusqualify yourself from this comp if it were the case. Well I wont be playing anymore nayways just in case, and I wont send off for my DSI win till I recieve my ipod through. I just dont think the t&c of this comp are that simple. Its a crazy comp!

    yeah I was thinking tha the whole time, that they have just put that clause in their t&c so that people buy more and more buscuits - as they must have lost big time on bonkers with the code sharing. I mean do you really think they will check everying!! Well guess we just have to wait and see what happens.

    I very much doubt you've disqualified yourself, are McVities seriously expecting everybody to be keeping notes of codes they've had in the past so they dont buy another packet with that code and use it again?!
    I keep on accidently entering codes for the 6th time because i quite simpy and honestly can't keep track of which codes i've used and how many times i've used them.

    I think disqualification would only happen if you're found to be using multiple identities for yourself so you can use codes more than 5 times. i.e: using your name and address but with 2 seperate email addresses.

    I'm not certain on all that though, thats just how i understand it.

    I agree Nettface, I reckon they are just trying to stop multiple entries in different email addresses not people who hqave lost count how many times they've genuinly entered. But then again, that is just my opinion too. I guess we'll have to see when the prizes are awarded. All I can say is that I lost count several times before I won a packet of biccies and I was able to claim my biccies ok, they didn't say sorry you're disqualified, you can't have them! I'm sure they just want to stamp out any form of cheating which would be multiple use of codes by the same person, in their terms.

    Im just wondering if it is the pc that you have used.

    I just tried at my work pc but had been using my home pc before!! maybe it logs against you pc the code that you have used and if you have used it before

    Either that or i did lose count :-)
    Hoping 2015 will be a better year :)

    Hiya

    Yes, I won a DSi a couple of weeks ago using the "normal" site (my computer doesn't do flash). Keep trying!
