Would a BG just move it over even if it's just one user whose reported it? I ask because sometimes someone would post and say comp closed and another user would post after that "it's just worked for me" :cool:

I thought that it needed something like five people to press expired before anything happened, so as to prevent just one person from pressing it accidentally.

i test the link before pressing expired or sending to a BG, if it comes up as closed, then i do send it, if the sites just playing up or it's still open, i don't do anything

eta.. don't think we should take one persons word that the comp has closed, think it's always best to test it yourself

This is the comp that I was wondering about.

One other person has had the same thing come up as me, so I didn't know whether to PM a BG. As yet, I have just pressed expired. I don't like to bump the comp by posting to say that I had the same message come up.

the radio comps sometimes do close a day earlier,
personally speaking i'd send it to a BG explaining that you think it's closed ..
i usually add along the lines of..
'when you have time could you please check this comp as i have pressed expired & cannot find the comp on it, but thought it best for you to check,
thank you

don't know if others do this, but that's what i do

Marg2k8

Thanks. That's what I'll do.

Better to do that than to post on the thread that you think it's expired as some people seem to do. I always test the link for myself and if I can't find the comp I click expired. I don't normally send a PM though, I thought that's what the button was meant to replace. The message does say if other people agree it will be moved, so if anyone else trying to enter clicks expired.... job done.
