Competitions Discussion Thread Part 16

Pick-me_2

https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3834871

I have NEVER wanted to win something soooooo much in my entire life! I've prayed to the comping god everday to let me win lol. I've told him/her I will NEVER even enter another comp again if I win this haha.

Obviously it's open to the whole of the U.K and chances of winning it are very slim. I just hope that that the lucky winner whoever they may be truly appreciates this once in a lifetime experience (Because I know I would) And not just someone happy of a free trip to Miami!


***rant over***

Apologies hahaha

Not sure if this is the right place to post but about the weekly competitions if they are under a certain day do you have to enter on that day or does it get put into the next weeks draw?

I think that is the day they change/are posted - so you should be able to enter up until the same day the following week
eg Sunday would mean it was open til Sat pm, Monday until Sun pm etc

Some twitter ones are one day only - so would need done that day or you miss them that week.

Sorry if it's the wrong place to post, but can anyone give me some advice please? In reference to this post http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=51899663&postcount=64
And a few posts from the same person, I am quite disgusted by their attitude. I've been reported by them too - lol. Is there anyway to report them? Or get someone to explain (so they'll actually listen) about how this forum works?

I wonder if anyone can tell me if im doing something wrong with the twitter comps.

I press follow and then press retweet but wondering if thats all i have to do as i havent won anything yet. I've entered over 1000 comps on there and thought i may have won one.

any advice

thanks x

All that can be done is a report to admin,via the "Report" button,if you feel any post warrants intervention.

Isn't the 'net such a nice place at times :-)
I think I'll just pm a few people any more comps I find as this comp posting lark seems a bit too generous to me
Now to just make my pm list up :rotfl:

Thanks hun, I've done that - also added on the form to read the post - wonder what the chances of that are?

This forum is heading the same way as facebook

Some of these "newbies" acting like king - it's as if they are oblivious to the amount of time & effort put into the comps like yourself and many others do. I only do a few and sometimes that's a massive effort (although I'm not knocking it!).

Speaking about the last year, I started comping back in Feb 2011, and have had such a fab year, but without the effort on here it would be nothing. We would have had a rubbish Christmas and I would have been dreading this year. Why are some people just so URGHHH!! Lol. It has, however, giving me some laughs! Glad it was me and not someone who couldn't have taken it so lightly.

I thought I would try and lead by example post very unlikely to enter that comp myself as an end date comper, but happy to help out fellow MSEers, xxx
