Sorry Glad, nothing personal, but I had a little chuckle to myself when I saw your comment above, as today I've had an issue with the Daily Mail bag comp again today. I posted it up as correct end date and I saw a comment somewhere about entering comps and they had disappeared, so I checked mine and it too was gone. It is only up for a day, so I reposted it.

looks like the first one when to game over with all the rest that ended today when they got done. thanks for telling me you had reposted it, now ive thanked the new one too so i dont accidentally enter it again:cool: (cause yes i am that daft and my memory is that crap:eek:)

to be fair, its got to be impossible for a bg to look at every single title to see if its one that only runs for one day and should be left, or if its one that was only just posted so should be left. like i said earlier in this thread, i personally think they sholdnt be moved until the day after they end but its the bgs who do that work, and up to them as to when they have time to move them.

What is the process by which comps are transferred to Game Over anyway?

eg. Who does it & when should it be done? Are the comps selected with a specific end date and transferred in one go? What happens to comps dated 30/02 - are these missed?

divadee usually does the moving to GO and it's a manual selection so she will do them on a date search and transfer all over together

I don't know wether she searches for 30/02 (or 29/02, 31/04 etc) without asking her, tbh it wouldn't have occured to me to search for comps ending with a date not in the calendar

Can someone help please - I admit I'm still a bit confused about what's going where since the poll results, but I thought that all the comps in the stickies would have threads either on the main board or the regulars board for people who don't use the stickies.

There's a comp to win Kettle chips which purplecatlover seems to have added to the daily sticky without a thread anywhere - I admit I could have missed it though!

The end date seems to be 31st March, so my understanding was that it should be on the main board, but I know I could be wrong about that too!

Can someone point me to the original comp thread if there is one please?

there are two face book kettle chip comps atm. one has a thread and is linked in dailies (i added it a little while ago) other is a direct link because there are a bunch of direct links in the thread atm and im slowly trying to post them

edit: so you know where to find them: both are in post two (atm, i may fiddle and move the now/nuts/wotv/pmu comps to post 2 and move the others back to post one so the notes for all of those can be written once and save me some characters)
1. Facebook and/or Twitter
Daily Prize Draw

Ongoing - Kettle Chips (FB) (prize is kettle chips)

2. E: 25/02 reveal the wallop kettle chips face book, various prizes this one IS on main board :cool:

if anyone else wants to post anything that is a direct link or any of the one day comps that are being added as i or beff see them on fb or twitter then please do feel free to help and then give me a link to replace the direct link in dailies :A

OK, so at the moment most people who don't use the stickies will be missing out? Seems a shame. Hopefully you'll get some offers of help to get them onto the main board so everyone can enter. I don't use the stickies myself, but wondered where the 'I won' posts were coming from!

I hadn't realised it was on the thread when you took it over, I thought you'd added it to the sticky without posting on main board, sorry
