    I do deal or no deals entries daily for both me and my father in law, i have noticed recently it is possible to vastly exceed the 30 entries we are supposedly allowed, i counted upwards of 100 before i got the message to say i have exceeded my limit. My only concern with this is that if we exceed 30 are we disqualifying ourselves from the competition?, i have emailed them for some clarification but have not received a response yet.

    Roboform is definately a godsend when it comes to doing mutiple entries, only thing you have to type is the verification code each time.

    I too was thinking of quitting under the assumption it was a big waste of time but then i read on the channel4 deal or no deal forums of a few people that have won by doing web only entries and that inspired me to carry in, we can only hope :). If anyone wants to read for themselves of other winners the link to the thread on the deal or no deal forums is here

    Can't say I have ever entered the DOND comp until I saw this thread, so I tried today and got through 3 times, think the security code is a bit fiddly though

    I just thought I'd let everybody know that I have just nominated Strepsy for post of the month, for getting the Puzzler Mag Thread up and running, hope a few more of you will also vote for her, especially anyone who won.

    Excellent, did Channel 4 phone you BEFORE showing your name as the winner on screen OR AFTER?

    i would just like to thank everyone on here for keep mentioning robo form , im not very technical minded and have been putting off using it for ages thinking it would be very difficult , i down loaded the free one and started using it a coupe of days ago and its fab , didnt realise how much time it took to fill in forms before and its real easy to use , how have i ever lived without it :) so once again thankyou , also thankyou for being such a helpful and nice lot on here , its nice to have someone to spur you on when you are feeling a bit naffed off about not winning for a while and the sense of community on here is wonderful , and its nice to be a part of something like that , oh dear im going on arnt i lol :)

    Thanks kit. Roboform is great. We do have a very supportive community. It is really important to hang in with comping. You can go through long spells with no prizes or naff ones then something decent comes along and its worth the wait. I think its important we encouraging each other, so that it doesn't become tedious.
