    I believe that it is much easier to see the locations on MSE, so I for one would vote for locations to be shown.

    Now we have a referral code on Codes Only.

    Sarah, can you remove the post by Sevenoaker please
  • Go please Sarah, especially if they are for invite only as the one today was, from memory for the competition it was part of you had to state what cinema you wanted, so anybody eligible wouldn't have needed a list of cinemas.

    I'm just sick to death of people continually telling us there are tickets left for tonight etc. The codes are all there. People should be checking for themselves if they still want tickets.

    We don't need all these extraneous posts telling us

    - we have half an hour to claim tickets.

    - these venues have tickets.

    - adding locations.

    The thread needs to be as clutter free as possible to enable people to find codes and tickets if they still need them.

    I know I'll be shouted down but all the above lead to added clutter.

    I actually totally agree, its much easier to read when it is just codes.

    Its also easier when you get an email, that it contains a code and not a post listing the locations when you would already know them by checking the code.

    I will see how the replies go and go with the majority which I would imagine is deleting them because thats the way it went when people voted on the poll before.

    Thanks I will delete that one now, didnt realise it was a comp win post so as you say, definitely no need for venues on that one.

    Locations are needed when a code is first posted.
    But when people are advising that more tickets are available for a code already posted, there is no need for someone else to come along and add an extra post stating the locations.

    Yep I agree, what if the OP doesnt list the locations and just lists the code?

    This is where it gets difficult. People on phones can't always copy, paste and format the list of locations, personally if the OP was still online I would send the list and ask them to edit post to add. I have done that in the past and a) had my head bitten off or been ignored and/or b) someone else has then posted the list.

    If the OP isn't online then add the locations but they are only needed once.
