Hi all,
I'm not sure about all of your views here, but I'm sure many of you on here would like to know how many competitions you have entered?
Does anyone agree with me, that it would be a great idea to have a feature on this forum that counts all of your green ticks, and displays them under your account, or possibly for others to view how many competitions you have entered?
It will be a great way of meeting your daily entry targets!
Whats your views, Yes, or No?

YesWell, I'm going to start first!
I always aim for an average of entering around 80 per day. I usually count them manually, page by page, can be very confusing at times as some of them I have entered on previous days.
Will save me time, and keep me on track with my daily targets.
Yes for me!0 -
Nosorry, it's a No from me
i enter hundreds a day with dailies, weeklies, monthlies, postals/texts ef's etc
& tbh now we have the enter, thanks & skip button it's
easy enough to keep track of which ones i've done etc
not sure i'd want to view everyone else's comps entered figures eitherx

No problem! thanks for your vote. Keep your votes coming0 -
NoIm afraid I also voted no, the reason being is that when I wanted to see how many entries I made, I just tallied them on paper.
Now I enter from other places, such as FB and Twitter, so for me.. it wouldnt be applicable for my particular comping style.
However - it would be nice to know just how many I had entered over a yearly period. For the fun of it.Wishing you all good luck!

NoNo from me because i feel it would be far too difficult to manage for the forum hosts. Think how mand hundreds of compers we have and that would mean an individual counter for them all. It just isnt feasible£2 Savers Club for 2022 #120

I haven't voted either way (sorry, not very helpful I know!). It wouldn't really bother me either way. I keep a spreadsheet of all comps I enter anyway so I can keep track of how many & also which I've entered & if I'm more successful at certain comps or not.

YesI voted yes, but I do take the point that it might have to address the probs mentioned. As MSE counts how many times we are thanked, does that mean it wouldn't be a big deal to count our ticks? I don't know. I'm not sure I would really make use of it, though it might be interesting to work out a personal average. And it is a good point by Firefly that it would mean everyone would be able to see how many comps people entered, so I'm unsure, but thought I'd give you a vote for being brave enough to have a go. And I didn't know we could set up a pole like that. You clever thing you :TI am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apology
THIS IS ME!
When you talk down to others it says more about you than them.0 -
YesI voted "yes" because I like numbers
and it would save me from counting them manually, but I'm not sure there's a real "need" for it, if that makes sense?
Also not sure how it would work with the dailies etc.2019 Wins

YesThank you to all of you that have left a feedback.
I see a lot of you don't like the idea of other people viewing how many comps you have entered, your entry counter doesn't have to be displayed public, it could be just set for your own viewing only. Obviously that would have to be discussed further.
I do understand it could be a lot of hassle for MSE to set up, but like someone else stated, if they can count and display the "Thanks" feature, why should are entry counts be any different?
Keep your views coming, I look forward to hearing from you all!0 -
I dont care either way, but if someone really wanted to know then they could always keep a tally. I know some people are obsessed with entering as quick as possible and so they wouldn't want to do as I do and have a spreadsheet, but how long does it take someone to mark a line on a piece of paper next to them to keep count? If people really wanted to keep track of the number they are entering they will so not really sure what purpose it would serve to be honest.Current Aims: Laptop/PC, decent money, holiday
