The comp for the Hollywood break has now been posted in around a dozen different magazines. Are you sure that when you've entered in once doing it again isn't a waste of time? Surely you don't get a dozen chances to win by entering through each magazine. I'm sure I read somewhere on the TAB site that if there are multiple entry points for a comp it's your first entry that counts. I know on the Puzzler site that you can only enter a magazine comp once and with the online comps you can enter as many times as you like but only your last entry will count. You would think TAB would have a similar set up. Can anyone clarify the situation please?

hi, AFAIK you are eligible to enter through each magazine for
when TAB run a multiple comp as they are separate magazine issues,

The relevant part of the T&C is:

If more than one entry for the same issue is received, we will accept the first entry only.

ie. You can enter once per magazine.

This is nothing new. The usual £5000 monthly prize is shared between most of the magazines, the three Sudoku mags usually share a prize between them, as do the mini mags. Normally the answer is different for each magazine, but sometimes TAB run these "global" comps where the puzzle and answer is the same in all mags.
