Hello there everyone, been a lurker around these parts for a while now so I thought I would say hi.

Really enjoying entering a few of the competitions
Wishing you all good luck!

Hi all.
I have a question for you long time compers.
I was just showing a co-worker the ipod I won and she said to me "I could never enter competitions. I wouldn't want to use up all my luck." :eek:
I had no clue what to say back. Have any of you come across that attitude before?
I had bever heard anything like that before. Normally people want to know how I found out about the comp.
Just checking to make sure I'm not using up all my luck here...:think: :rotfl:
funny reply from then, don't understand what they mean either :eek:
though think wingo's right, they're proberly a tad jealous :rotfl:please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly.

I always end up thinking silly things like that - like "why enter a small comp, don't want to use my luck up when I could use it to win something big"! But then I remind myself luck has nothing to do with it, and it is all just pure chance!
The odds of winning each comp are just based on the number of entrants, and the statistical chances of you winning one is unrelated to how many you enter!
So just enter them all
bound to get lucky at some point
