    Me neither BAR69 but I don't think my work would have let me off long enough for a trip round the world anyway - I just do these type of comps because I oddly find them de-stressing - finding ladygaga icons, cream eggs & caring for ducks & it's ok I already know how strange I am:rotfl::rotfl:

    No, not really QQQ. It's just you seem to have been 2nd on the leaderboard forever and I thought it very unfair when Sid took the lead with only 68 cares (which clearly contradicts the instructions). But when QQ said he'd cheated I wrongly assumed it was you and thought "serves you right mate". Sorry, take my nasty thoughts back now x
  • Finatra - STRANGE is good, but the cream egg hunt i gave up on ages ok.
    BAR69 - definately not a cheat, but thanks for noticing my top ups alot more than the leader.
  • LouieK07 - It would be clever if you had photo evidence of your finishing time and position on the leaderboard before they took it off, did you capture anything ?

    Didn't say it had anything to do with it, just saying I wouldn't know how to do it! Basically, they have to let you know if you've been disqualified. A few people on here have been disqualified and they have received e-mails. They also definitely have to tell you if you have, if you have beaten the person at the top but you only beat them because of 'glitch'. I haven't got no e-mail saying I have been disqualified. All I know is that I have been very devoted to my duck have stayed awake for most of the 4 day's, 20 hours and I haven't seen no glitch and the miles haven't considerably jumped.

    BAR69 you can only see the top 10 on the leaderboard doesn't show you the rest. Also, if you are having trouble viewing the leaderboard clear the cache on your internet browser :)
    I only found out my duck was disqualified after I wrote to o2 asking why.? Like you I saw my duck at the top of the leaderboard and then it disappeared . I then got an email saying they wanted to speak to me. I spoke to them and they said they would get back to me. Since then I have had emails saying they need to speak to their boss. I have just accused them of stalling, to placate me. My duck had a so called "glitch" and i am absolutely livid, as I also stayed with it trying to make sure she was topped up.o2 state they know i didn't cheat, and being of the older generation, I have very little IT knowledge so wouldn't know how. But i do know how to complain and make a stir and that is just what i am going to do. This competition has not been run fairly and I am currently ploughing through the relevant bodies and legislation to see what rules and regulations they have broken.
    It is so frustrating!

    Did you print screen any of it? Your time, being on the leaderboard etc? What was your final time?
