Quick question

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this but thought it would get swalowed up on the main board.

Been doing comps for a couple of months (with no luck yet!) and just wondering if someone could help me out with the abbreviations used in this forum?

For example WEM? I think its probably finding out through email you have won a comp?

Can someone please post a few of the most used and what they stand for lol :D

Thanks! And good luck :D
:coffee:

    Hi Glitter03,

    WEM = winning email
    WL = winning letter
    VM = voice mail/message
    WTC = winning telephone call
    HTH = hope that helps or happy to help
    GL = good luck

    Can't think of many others at the moment. HTH. GL. Hope you have your first win soon!
