I've just started comping a few days ago and it's taking me ages to get through everything. I was wondering, those of you who've had lots of wins, how many comps do you tend to enter on average each day/week etc?
Also, how long was it till you won your first prize?
Thanks, J x
Last year I entered just under 17,000 comps most of them from this site :eek: and won 83 times :j.
I think my first win (a CD) was after I'd been coming about a month. But sometimes I can go ages without winning anything then 2 or 3 turn up together.
Just enter as many as you feel happy with, don't get overwhelmed with the amount of comps on here, don't expect to win but when you do it'll be a nice surprise.

Hi, Im not going to be much help, but would just like to say Im exactly the same, I always click on "follow" but dont know if this is always needed. Sometimes you need to "retweet" theres a button for this, but Ive no idea why we need to do it but the tweeting bit is the bit that confuses me, have no idea why we need to do this or what has to go in the tweet box. Obviously I need help too, as I have never won a Twitter yet. ThanksMassive Thank you to all who post comps & answers on here .i'm very grateful , good luck all.

Hello folks,
I was just wondering what email address you use to enter comps? Hotmail, Live, Yahoo etc...
I use live.co.uk and it seems to be the unluckiest email address going! Just wondered whether you've had better results with different addy's.
Good luck in 2011 everyone x0 -

Why the sudden increase in bumping threads in the main Competitions Time Board?
Just lately every other comp seems to be bumped up several times with some petty comment. There are even one or two threads that have become personal chat threads for some members.0 -
Evening compers. :hello: Happy New Year! :dance:
The comping board seems a bit 'different' at the moment, I agree with barnabee's comment about threads being bumped. Maybe it's because things are a bit quiet. I hope it settles down soon.[FONT="][FONT="] Fighting the biggest battle of my life.Started 30th January 2018.

Happy New Year everyone
Just a quick question if you don't mind.
Do you put your home tele number on comps? I'm a little weary about this.

I tend to use my mobile as my main telephone number but I do use my home number if it's required. I do this to avoid spammy calls at home but also because I work full time so can actually answer the calls during the day.2009 Wins = £833
2010 Wins = £6,597
2011 Wins = £7,083
£2,012 in 2012 = £450/£2,012
20 in 2012 = 4/200 -
