    Hi
    I just entered this competition but think the answer is
    c) 216 Foot Locker Stores due to this quote from the website:

    British fashion label Joystick Junkies started an 8-bit fashion revolution and is now launching the VS Collection, a powered up range of t-shirts for Foot Locker based on THE hottest games this year! They’re now in 216 Foot Locker stores across Europe! Click here to find out where you can buy!

    Good luck everyone! :D
    Keep on comping!

    2018 wins: £600
    2019 wins: £186

    I agree 216 - the quote is from the 1st paragraph of the comp page.
  • Hi all, realised we had a sudden massive rush of entries from this site, so first of all thanks GraphicUK for the post :beer:

    However with over 12,000 entries, I realised most of them were from automated competition entry sites, meaning the people entering hadn't actually visited our site themselves. Our competition rules state that participants have to visit the website page to take part so we're going to disqualify any entries from competition sites.

    So for those of you who genuinely came and checked us out and took the time to enter, you've now got a bigger chance of winning :T

    Now another bonus for all you real people...we've got a monthly competition for an Xbox launching in August, this time all you have to do is 'like' our Facebook/joystickjunkies page and every Friday we're picking a winner from all those who 'like' us to get a new video game, and on the last friday of the month we're picking a 'liker' at random to win an Xbox and the game! Easy - no forms to fill in, no emails to give!

    Enjoy the weekend and good luck with the competitions!

    Sorry I might be being thick but what is an automated competition entry site? Does this mean if you clicked on the above link you have been disqualified? or does that mean you are ok?

    Ah sorry :) Dont worry if you entered on our website you are okay!

    Right there are websites that people sign up to for say a few quid a month that then enter you in every competitition that can be found on the web. They use software to automatically enter everyone on their database. What I see our end as someone running a competition is thousands of entries but the email addresses are usually weird email addresses associated with those websites. Most competition organisers are now disqualifiying entries from these as obviously the entrant hasn't visited the web page for the actual competition and seen the message or sponsors on the page.
  • Hey ChrisBirch. Can I say thanks for banning automated comp entries. I wish that more promoters would do the same. :)

    Thanks for the comp too!

    No problem! It's just encouraging spam emails and is definitely not in the spirit of running a competition as you'll end up competing against thousands more people to win who probably don't care if they win the competition or not.

    Oh I didn't even know those websites existed. Thanks for the explanation ChrisBirch.

    No problem, I can see why people join them, but good to know most big competition sites are now disqualifying people who use them. It's unfair on those who actual spend their time to personally enter competitions.
