    Hi all

    I'm working through the monthlies sticky and sending to GO all comps that will now be posted as new threads each month on the main board
    I'm using the strikethrough to highlight them see HERE

    all of these now need posting for April as new threads on mains please :) so none of them are lost/missed

    you can post on the monthlies thread which ones you have put up to save people searching before they post :)

    Thanks for all the hard work Glad.

    One nitpicky thing - under the linky to the regulars board it says "
    For all regular competitions that happen more than once, that would otherwise get lost on the main competitions board amongst all the one-off comps" are you able to amend it to something like? "For all newsletter comps and all regular daily/weekly competitions that happen more than once, that would otherwise get lost on the main competitions board amongst all the one-off comps"
    Not precious if you can improve the wording (probably can), and not sure if it can be done (or has already been asked) but may help anyone that's not read/ignored your sticky about the new rules,
    xx

    I think the tag for one off sign ups needs to be one word

    maybe just E: ONEOFF ??

    I've now moved 160 odd threads from the regs board to GO see HERE
    so far I've only gone through the links on the sticky and need to go through the board to see if there are any I've missed

    I don't know if it's been mentioned ;) but these will need posting on the main board for April, and then every following month, as new threads so that none are missed or lost :)

    a big thanks to purplecatlover who went through the monthly sticky for me and listed which could be entered every month :T

    if I've moved any I shouldn't have sorry :o things were starting to blur a bit after the first 50

    Thanks Glad. You must be giving up your whole weekend to get this sorted :(

    I think E: ONEOFF would do. There's nothing to stop people adding other bits like sign up or newsletter or whatever after it if they personally think it's needed but at least it says what it needs to and keeps it simple and short and consistent so it's got a thumbs up from me at least :)
