Hi everyone sorry if this has been posted before but how to do keep track of the comps you enter? Do you have a system?

I don't keep track, I enter and forget
Obviously use the green ticks to mark off what I've entered, but I don't write them down anywhere else, I don't see the point, and it makes the wins more of a surprise0 -
same as starrybee, keeping a spread sheet or anything else like it takes too much time. Carry on compingA strong man stands up for himself, a stronger man stands up for others.0

Just the green ticks/red cross now - for the first month or so I did write them down to see how many I'd entered but was a waste of time and ultimately far too time consuming.0

I use the red crosses and green ticks. Also, I keep a word document and have different headings correlating to the month i.e. January, February etc. I add to a number when I enter a comp, so if I entered 1 comp that month, the number would be 1, another comp it would be 2 etc. I also keep a list of the wins for that month and how much they have totaled so far that month. Then once the month is up, I add that total to my total so far for the year.
I never keep a list of exact comps I have entered though. That would be far too time-consuming...!

I do subscribe to each I enter though as it gives you a total of how many entered. I clear it on 1st Jan and start again.
LadyM I keep a list of winnings too, with a monthly total and a running total of all the previous months so I'll join you in the (OCD) organized clubA strong man stands up for himself, a stronger man stands up for others.0 -
