    Hi Everyone,

    We'll be messaging the winners shortly.

    For everyone wondering about the location of Santa, he was in the source code of the Team Blog as you'll see below.

    Thanks for playing and Merry Christmas from everyone at MSE.

    Not sure how that fits in with
    Here's what to look for

    The images in this post don't count - all the winning images will contain a code and the name of the reindeer.

    Did look in the page source code, as wanted to see if the image was failing to display for some reason. Was not there when I looked straight after the clue.

    Oh well, one of those things.

    In Firefox you would right click on page and select view source as one way.

    Will be other ways for other browsers.

  • MSE - that's a bit naughty really isn't it? You told us to look for an image of Santa and that's what we all did. I didn't expect finding Santa to be easy but I did expect it to be fair. Not a happy bunny......

    Just a reminder - the images that you are looking for are shown in the first post. They'll have codes on them!

    Isn't that post a teeny bit misleading - how can you look for an image that isn't being shown?
  • Many thanks MSE for this competition, can't believe I won.

    There are obviously a few 'upset' users on here, but I am sure their number is outweighed by people who enjoyed the competition.

    Merry Christmas

    DFD - 11.07.2019 (OMG).
    New DFD is 28.10.2018 due to paying the absolute maximum.

    Thanks to everyone on the DMP forum, and to SC for helping me out of this huge hole.
  • Well, looking at page sources on an ipad involves a lot of complicated steps. Not exactly a level playing field for everyone - shame on MSE for not making it a fair competition - very unMSE.

    Well done to those who did win and sorry to the others like me who weren't aware of the "criteria" we needed to comply with in order to take part and have an equal chance of winning.
