Chrome and Automated Entries

Hi
Been comping a couple of year and have had a few decent wins of breaks away etc. However, for the last few months I have been using chrome and allowing it to autopopulate where it can.

Not sure if it is coincidence or not but I don't seem to have won aything lately - does it count as an automated entry, something most competitions don't like

    auto populate is not automated entry - those are where you use a programme or bot to actually enter (usually by the you pay & we enter you in loads of comps crowd) ,

    I use chrome autofill & still win (usually small prizes but a win's a win)

    Hi, I use chrome and let it auto fill and have won some good stuff so I would say its ok, hopefully your next win isn't too far away :)

    An autofill is not the same as 'automated entries'.
    Thank you all who post.
  • OK thanks guys, just guess i've been unlucky!
