Daily Mags - what is happening?

BlueBella

Hi, I'm a little confused as the daily mags thread has been closed and now some daily mag comps are being posted on the main board - are they going to be posted on the main board from now on? I loved the system we have been following for the past few months but don't mind if we go back to the old way of posting them on the main. I just wondered if any decision had been made?

I hadn't even noticed the thread had been closed - what's going on??? Has any announcement been made or was it just closed?
I hope we're not going to have to go back to the old system of every comp going on the main board and being linked back to another thread, it was so confusing to keep track of! I like things the way they've been the past couple of months!

I'm a lot confused to be honest, it seems something happened last night which has now disappeared, but Glad (presumably) has locked the mag thread so no idea whats happening other than she has asked for volunteers to (I think) change it back the old way which is what some people have been asking for.

I'm sure someone will be along swiftly to correct me but that's how I read it this morning in the absence of the people that were involved last night.

Yes, that is what concerned me - there has been no announcements to say what is happening. I just noticed it was closed?

Last comment from Glad here.

I am sure when Glad comes on she will explain & sort it all out.

I saw that it was locked last night, but posts look like they had been deleted.

I really hope we don't go back to the old system. The new system worked perfectly for me and was less energy expelling with the M.E.

So sad to see this has happened. I think Cornish, Mums, Fire*Fly, Jambo and everyone else involved have done a fantastic job :A and the mag dailies thread has worked a treat up to now. I only joined the forum earlier this year so don't know what it was like in the past, but can't think that adding each new mag comp onto the main board will solve the problem in any way, shape or form. If the sticky didn't placate the disgruntled MSE members then I suppose this must be the only option. It doesn't seem like any progress to me though.

Ah well - at least it'll free up the previously dedicated mags daily updaters to spend more time entering comps!

I don't even have any idea what the actual problem with the mag daily thread was. :think:

I'm also confused, the daily sticky that we have had recently has worked perfectly for me and I'm sure many others due to the great job that the regular posters have done, you are all much appreciated.

I caught a bit of the 'discussion' last night but it seems to me a shame if a vocal minority cause everything to be changed again when most of us seem perfectly happy with how things have been running.

Obviously something has happened to upset cornish but I hope we keep the Dailies on their own thread.
Also put R/copter, Facebook & Twitter on their own threads too - Ah bliss!!!

Que sera sera - no point going over the same ground as what's done is done

It would just be helpful, moving forward, to know exactly how/where any brand new mag dailies will be posted. Should we presume no more 'click to win' sites will appear? If they do, where will people be notified about these? It was helpful having a single, clearly laid out thread where these could be added/listed on the front page (just like the TAB/Puzzler thread).

In addition, a couple of new standard 'mag dailies' appeared in the past few weeks (ie. House to Home & Good Housekeeping). Again, where exactly will people be able to notify others about these quickly and easily?

I look forward to the next update from Glad
