I am new to this and I have noticed a lot of competitions say they will announce the winner on the web site.

So as not to miss out just incase I win, how do people keep track of what they have entered and when to revisit the web site to see if they have won.

Thanks in advance

I'm new and would like to know the answer to this to .. I just assumed that you would be notified by e-mail or phone if you were the winner ?!

I think I have read that you only need to subscribe when you have more than 10 'passcards'. Delete some of them and it will stop asking you to upgrade.

You can carry on using Roboform for free if you keep your passcards below 10.

If you can afford it, (about £12), the full version is great, well worth every penny.

I have been comping now for a couple of months and still no win. I am still a bit of a skeptical as you hear of comps being scams, fixed etc..
I know this is going to sound a bit silly but when a winner is chosen, would they really choose a Mrs (unprenouncable name) with a Brixton Estate address (sorry no offence) over a Mrs Smith who lives in say, Wandsworth?
I just want to know if I have the same chance as everyone else.

Dunno - I would honestly say that I think that, for the VAST majority of comps, they don't give a flying fa:Dt about where you live!

HTH:D

My mother used to say the same thing to me when I started comping in Nov. She was convinced that only people with Anglo-Saxon sounding names living in the home counties won. When My Xbox 360 turned up in December she became a believer.

Just a little reminder - please don't re-title a post with 'please delete', etc, as someone else has to pick it up with a PM to a BG.

It is a bit unfair that iIalone have done about 25+ of these in the last week, and I know (from talking to BGs) that they get missed/lost on the board if those of us who do pick them up, don't.

There are some very experienced posters who do this - I'll post this in the compers' inn and on the discussions thread, too, as I am a little p:D:Dsed off about doing it so often.

Newbies are excused, as I was.:D:D

Thanks, I know it sounds like I am just being paranoid.
I think I also need a 'win' to become a believer.
