    2492 to go!

    I wish we could have more than one go! Hehe.

    Been doing it for 5 days and 13 hours now.


    I don't stand a chance of winning so just entered another duck with a different email address, I have a personal race going between Rockatooey and Sallyanne. Sallyanne the Hawaian wants whole loaves of bread, gets dizzy with too much love and hardly sleeps lol. The rocker, Rocktooey wants loads a love.

    The competitin says you can go on caring for you duck after they have finished racing, Im sure they'd love that....I wonder if I'll be that hooked that I carry on feeding a computerised duck :rotfl:

    I'm tempted to sneak out of bed in the night and pretend i'm going to the 'bathroom' however i'll be sorting out my duck :P



    'I'll be sorting out my duck' - that sounds so wrong... especially when sneaking out in the dead of night to do it!!!!! Ha Ha. :rotfl:

    This comp is making me quackers!!! Come on Dougie Duck, swim like you've never swum before! :T

    BTW, Its cheaper than a Tamagotchi!!!!!
    Live, Love and be Happy
  • think my map has gone funny - earlier my duck was in Alice Springs, now he's in Zimbabwe! At least it's a good excuse for the poor speed, a bit hard to swim overland!

    There is one person on the leaderboard now :)

    Not sure I can beat him.... I have been doing quite well, but I didn't look after my duck for the first day and I'm afraid I have been treating myself to some sleep!! I am temped to try again with another duck, but I'm not sure I can bear giving up even more of my life for another 6 days!! Good luck everybody!! :)

    Thank you all posters

    I promised myself an early night tonight and here I am pretending to do present shopping but secretly topping up my duck :p I think the person that wins will either have had no sleep for 6 days or will have been on a day/night rota with someone else.

    I am quackered - my little duck is sitting proudly on top of the leaderboard (for the time being). Don't think that I will win but it's nice to take the lead.

    Is he top?
    my duck finished (two hours after I got the email saying he had finished!) and showed him in position 1 on the board but there was also a line highlighted at the bottom with "18"
    Not sure about the score as he seemed to have his time reduced by 1 hour as he finished

    It was nice being top of the leaderboard but it only lasted for a few minutes - down to number 2 now - I wonder how long I can stay in that position.
