    1) If sort by ending date worked properly this wouldn't be needed at all.

    2) It lacks ticks/crosses and/or selection of unticked comps only.

    3) It lacks the ability to hover your mouse on the post and see details about the comp.

    6) If it is a "live feed" please explain how it would display a competition for "tomorrow" newly posted whilst I am actually looking at "tomorrows comps".

    PS. I doubt that I would ever use it anyway

    What I was going to say was already said above xx
    Id like to see the forum easier to organise echoing the comments of previous posters. xx
    Wishing you all good luck!

    I just wanted to remind those discussing alternative end date formats that SORT ORDER is far more important than SEARCH. Whichever format is used, SEARCH only ever returns a maximum of 300 results, which is no use when 31DEC12 or whatever has 500 comps with that ending date.

  • Hi all

    Just to say, although we don't always reply we are reading and listening to the feedback on all threads. There are technical limitations but hopefully what the team are working on will help the majority.

    I'm with others in that so long as it is in addition to the main board I wouldn't mind it, it would be useful for checking I hadn't missed anything ending soon.

    However I don't comp by end date so it's not something I desperately need and I wouldn't want the main boards disappearing!

    Id use it, but would prefer an tick for face book, twitter and the normal tick and cross for entered/skip.

    good idea none the less

    as long as the main forum stays the same for those of us that dont comp by end date, it looks good


    I agree :)
  • I suppose it would be okay as a check for any you'd missed, but only if it had a tick or cross with it. It seems to be more for the 'dip in' comper who might just enter a few every now and again when they felt like it, and weren't really bothered about any particular format.
