What now?

Options
I'm really, really new to this comping stuff, (new as in only been doing it a couple days), but when I start things I get completely addicted to them! I've been entering pretty much non-stop for the last few days so that now I've run out of competitions to enter. I've gone through the 200+ pages of comps and entered all the ones I'm interested in and now am suffering withdrawal symptoms!

Any one got any suggestions of what comp-related things I can do now?

Thanks x

    If I PM you my details, you could do some of them for me.:D

    Have you looked at the dailies, as that'll give you a new lot to start on each day.

  • also have a search on the internet for some ones you could post, i did this and i believe that because i posted a few i got some good luck and it made me get my first win ;)
  • Thanks everyone! Haven't started the puzzler and take a break comps yet as they seemed like a little bit more work than robotically typing in details but think I'll have to start as there's not much else for me to enter. (Yay thats my night sorted then haha)

    Def will have an internet search for some comps, will be quite hard to find some non-spammy ones that haven't been posted knowing how good/quick everyone on here is! :)

    phew, I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets like this :eek:. I often go through pages & pages if I'm struggling to sleep then for the next few day I'm lost when there's no new comps to enter.

    I sit there twiddling my thumbs thinking "come on post some new comps" this is a sure sign I'm addicted me thinks :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    The Puzzler and TAB are a good shout and not as much work as you'd think. I don't really venture into the Regular Board, I often try to get ahead by days/week of those ending then its not so bad at the end of the month when there are more ending.
    Wine is made to be drunk, I am drunk, therefore am I wine?
  • Haha i'm definitely the same in terms of extent of addiction!!

    Just trawled through all of the regulars/dailies/onceonlies and did as many as possible. Noticed that quite a few of the links have expired or the comps are no longer running, especially on the ones where you have to sign up to a newsletter. Might be an idea that the 'Regulars' board gets a tidy up?

    If you have time on your hands, you could send a PM to a board guide with a link to the ones on regulars that have expired and also note them on the thread at the top, so that they get removed from the list. (Might be another way to gains some comping karma :rotfl:)

    Good luck. Hope you have some nice wins. Personally, I never find enough time to enter all the ones I would like to.
  • It's just started happening to me now! Such a rush.. think the next step is trying to track down competitions to post! Wish me luck
