Autofil and competitions?

Hey all!
I've been entering competitons for a while now and I've noticed on some of them e.g. this one of goodtoknow.co.uk:
Entries made online using methods generated by a script, macro or the use of automated devices will be void.
I was wondering does that mean if you use the autofill on Google Chrome it will mean you're entry is not valid?
Many thanks
Claire
P.S. good luck in all the comps you enter! :D

    I think you will be fine. Most people on MSE use some sort of autofill, either Roboform, or Lastpass etc. and have had lots of wins.

    When promoters include clauses like this, they are trying to stop people that for example pay a site that enters competitions for thousands and thousands of people.
  • Thank you! That's good then! I thought I was going to have to fill the whole thing out again! lol
