    Jeez, why do they have to change it?? I can never read those stupid things and if you get it wrong it seems that the only way to get it through is to refresh and start again from scratch inputting all your details again.

    It does matter, because if I'm not receiving email confirmations then I don't know if I've lost or won. So yes, it really does matter, to me anyway.

    If I'm not receiving LEM/WEM's then whose to say I'm not going to receive a confirmation email to confirm my details? SO aye, it's a big deal to me, thanks.
    But the LEMs are automated - if you win they will email you directly asking for your details so please do just relax and have fun.
    Thank you all who post.

    It's the principle. In my view they clearly have issues with their system and an update to their site today would suggest that. Let's just agree to disagree then shall we? :)

    The original one would not have stopped automated entries as the code was computer "readable" so the change should increase the chances of organic winners.

    It never actually occured to me that the original code would of been to easy for that purpose. Thanks. So thank god they changed it. They changed it a bit too late in the competition for my liking. At least they've changed it though.
