    Hi , please would you be able to add/amend the end date in your thread title so that it follows the forum rules for end dates. This will also make it much easier for other compers to find your comp when the end date is getting near - so more people can enter it! It will also make it a bit easier for our Board Guides, who have to find the ending ones to move them into Game Over. Thanks! :)

    Just click edit & advanced.

    Changed the title now. Laughable that punctuation is mentioned given the amount of 'text speak' on this forum. People can still work out from the above what they have to do to enter.

    Hi anfield :) I think weeowen meant to say punctuation mark as opposed to punctuation. Punctuation, grammar nor spelling matters not one jot, but the title has to be in a certain format so that the search facility picks it up for date end compers. The "E" is needed at the start of the title, likewise the colon (two dots :p) directly after, and then a space. For example E: 21/03. 21/03, or E:21/03, or E: 21/3 will not be picked up by search. It is not us being pedants, but the way the search is geared up. We really, really do appreciate your input, honestly :) :kisses3:
    Never put tables and chairs in the same room.
    If they congregate together for any length of time, they will inevitably hatch plots against you and your pets.
