I entered that this morning, the only comp I have entered so far today. I have had to neglect comping for housework today. Tomorrow will have to be spent comping as the site will be down when I normally do most of my comping

You've got it the wrong way round madhouse - it's the housework that needs to be neglected because of the comping

Dust only gets to a certain thickness and then it only looks worse if you miss a bit.
Never do today what you can put off while tomorrow.

Thanks for trying catz. I've googled on "Controlled Requested" and it looks like it could be a marketing strategy where you give out free magazines to targeted individuals in the hope of .....

a) Converting the free subscription to a paid subscription.
b) Increasing the market exposure of the publication.

Can't think of any reason I would be singled out for this other than the fact I entered a lot of the publishers comps. But in that case I would have expected some other MSEers to be getting free copies as well.
