  • yeah they both go to the same thread.....maybe im the only one who wizzes through clicking links to threads then links in first post and enters often without paying any heed whatsoever to it being the same thread as i opened a few minutes ago/earlier. the ones that change q&a every day i cant duplicate cause ive thanked the relevant post...but if its doable form the first post without scrolling down i thank and click enter first time i enter.....and my memory is so bad that i couldnt tell you form one hour to the next if ive already entered it or not (whcih is why i use the daily thread....once ive done them i dont go back till next day when my reminder pops up to tell me i haev not yet done them today).

    but nm if its only me who is likely to duplicate....ill just have to either enter dailies or advents once we get a few more on advents and be very careful in the meantime for the next week or so.

    I'll take it off.

    I have had several msgs regarding layout/whats included or not, I'm starting to regret doing this as whatever I am doing seems to be wrong, though i've follwed previous years templates.

  • dont take it of just for me....i can work around it being linked in 2 different places just requires more time.

    i dont know why people are complaining about the layout....its clear which are daily and which are weekly and when fb and twitter advents start theyre clearly spaced too. you did a fantastic job last year. im sorry your getting flack over it already hope it turns into as much fun for you as you found it last year. it takes a heck of a lot of itme and effort to keep on top of a thread like this and without those of you who maintain them and those who let you knwo what links to add id miss a million comps and oppurtunities.

    Hi Toni, thanks for all your hard work. :j :j

    Not sure if this should go here ??? no info on site but I'm sure it will be a Purchase comp. Just let me know if I should post it on the main board. Thanks.

    the following are coming up on Google for advent comps 2009 but have nothing on their sites so far. I'll keep a list and check every few days:

    I've spent ages trying to incorporate everyones ideas into this thread, I don't have loads of space so what can be included is limited, what i will do for the peeps that will struggle to keep up with newly posted, i will at the end of the list do a newly posted section so u can see what has just been updated, i will do that 7am, 2pm, and 6pm, so u wont miss any newly added, i will also add them to the list alphabeticaly, I'm not going to as suggested not link to the op if there is one on the mainboard, as it's fair the op gets the thanks and recognition for finding the comp.
    I'm trying my best to keep the chaos of the advents to a minimum , i can't make it any easier than it will be and we don't all comp the same way, So i apologise if i haven't incorporated any of ur suggestions xxxxx
