bit of a time related moan

I do try to get one day ahead but find it hard to keep up
Having false end dates would not help as you still need to find the same amount of time to enter them but keeping the correct end date gives people a chance to enter that would be lost if an earlier false one was used.0 -
Just dont wait till the day it finishes to enter, simple, pps that post do a great job and moaning is a bit mean imo0

I apologize if I seem ungrateful as I said before i do appreciate people that post comps0

I try and do all the time ones the day before and I'm not trying to be 'mean' I was just as you say posting my opinion that people get a monopoly of posting comps and dont put an end time on , surely I'm allowed ?
Of course you are allowed but the simple solution is not to enter on the last day unless it is an emergency.
Instead of any changes being required just treat the competitions as closing on the day before the given date.
(For the itv ones I would suggest using the forum search to pick up and enter them as they are posted).0 -
That way the enddaters do not miss it.
And that's the reason I love you so much!:A

I enter the day before it ends but am sometimes caught out with ones ending at midnight
Of course, I could do them a few days before they end, but my RL stuff comes firstThanks to all posters :A0 -
ok will try that thanks0

Personally I find end-date comping to be an illogical way to go about things in general, although that's getting off topic0
