thanks for doing this years advent thread OYL :T
can i suggest you put somewhere in the 1st post a link to the previous years advent or last two years as the main posts on 2012 were a bit incomplete. this helps ppl with a massive starting point to go off and find ones again that may happen again this year
you can just highlight and copy/drag this e.g over if you like
Here are the links to the 2012 & 2011 Advent Threads if anyone wants to help check the regular companies for this years comps
also i noticed in post #1 the bavaria advent, but its not yet open and you will come across a lot of these where they are posted in advance of them opening, so it really needs to look along the lines of
E: 24/12 Bavaria Travel - Opens 01/12
if you dont include the -opens 01/12 part in the clicky it will make it a lot easy to edit them when they do open, be it 01/12 10/12 12/12 18/12 etc
otherwise i can guarantee it, before the end of this month you are going to have at least 75 across all categories, not yet open and ppl wont know which ones to click come 01/12 or the 1st day whenever it does open
HTH & GL
& remember i am just an inbox away if you need me

Hi fnc63, I just remembered as I was answering cornishpasty on the advent thread that I hadn't linked to the old threads - so they're now on there (at the bottom)
Thanks for the heads up about the bavaria comp. Will amend it now.
Cheers!0 -

hiya OYL
please can i ask that in post #9 you have a separator between weekly and once only entry listings similar to what i did here as this wil make it easier for people to track as the list grows
also thanks for finding this one
E: 25/12 ? BrandRefill (FB)
that you posted on the main board and added straight into the main advent lists, but can i ask you please that with any you find and post to the main board, aside from adding into 2-9 on the front page you also will need to add it as a post to the end of the thread
this is because a number of people comp by continually going to the latest/lastunread post each time either via clicking the button beside the thread on the main board or through the link they receive in an email if theyve subscribed to the thread and so they wont notice ones like the above have been added, especially as the lists in each post 2-9 grow if you are not going to be highlighting in some way when they were added
thx
