    Hi Madmissi,

    You've been a member since March. Just wondered if you've entered any comps from other mags and sites you've seen on MSE?

    No I haven't, I'm not much of a competition entering person actually :o . I was just trying to defend the more! readers' honour because a select few are making the rest of us look bad :( Like I've just said on another post there seems to be an 'us' and 'them' mentality going on, and it's a bit silly, we're really not all greedy and wanting to keep the prizes to ourselves.

    A lot of more! fans aren't actually chavvy teenagers, please don't tar us all with the same brush. People are getting annoyed because more! themselves said these prizes are for their fans, and those who have never even looked at a copy of more! mag are entering.

    Ok, I've just read that back and I've made it sound like that's my opinion, when actually I'm happy for anyone who wins. Good luck to all!

    Hi
    Can anyone help? I've previously been a very keen comper and have won some nice things but in the past 8-12 weeks I've hardly entered any competitions, mainly due to me trying to lose weight and the time I previously spent entering competitions I do try and spend some of that time exercising.

    I really want to get back to entering competitions as I have had some nice wins but I can't get motivated, mainly because I'm so far behind (I enter competitions as they are posted and work back to page 1 so given that i've not entered any for so long I can imagine I'll be 100s of pages behind), what can I do to re-start my comping addiction.

    Thanks

  • Hi All,

    I run a competition page on Facebook in which we run instant wins, discounts and I post competitions from all different titles.

    Please come over and like our page and you can get regular updates when we post competitions.

    Our Facebook name is RGM Ltd Competitions Page - unfortunately I can't post a link on here.

    Welcome back! :D

    Save all of the comps on MSE to bookmarks so that you can do them at your own leisure!

    I'm the exact same :D exercise/losing weight now comes first and comping last, ive not comped for a week now but i will be starting at a certain page then working back to page 1 then will do comps ending to catch any ending for the next day so that way im not missing any out, we all have different ways of doing it so just do what will be easiest for you, welcome back to comping and good luck with weight loss :D xx

    Best thing is to just start from 1st June and ignore all the others - you probably will never catch up and you will stress out about them. Put a mental line through all the comps before this date and do not think about what you are missing.
    Thank you all who post.

    Hi

    Has anyone had an email from Motelrocks which is head Congratulations! and the rest of it is basically blank. It's most probably 'junk' but thought I better check it out.


    Thanks
