Birthday question

Afternoon all.

So it's my birthday today, and over the past few days I've been through about 100+ pages in Competitions Time entering comps.

I was wondering what peoples thoughts are on the following:

Do you think if a comp ends on or around your birthday and requires your date of birth that you are more likely to win?

I'd like to hope so :rotfl: would love a birthday win!

    Happy Birthday!
    If it's your 18th you stand a much better chance of winning :beer: and if you're 50 you can now enter the SAGA comps smiley-cool05.gif

    :bdaycake:Happy Birthday, but I don't think it will increase your chances of winning unfortunately. There are far too many rules and regulations that companies have to adhere to nowadays for them to pick and choose who wins their comps.

    Thanks all :)

    I'm 26 today, so not old enough to go for the SAGA comps!

    Here's to hoping! :beer:

    Happy birthday!!

    I think comping wins are all about positive thinking (and of course, being in it to win it!)

    So fingers crossed that you get a fab birthday surprise!!
    Thanks to all those lovely people who contribute to this website. :beer:
