    From the comping guide (just one of the many reasons not to enter near the end-date)
    WARNING: If you are entering comps on the day or even the day before they end you run the risk that perhaps the comp has closed a little early & your entry won't be counted. Another thing to bear in mind is that the Board Guides volunteer hours of their time to keep these boards clear & running smoothly so sometimes comps which are ending today or perhaps tomorrow (in rare cases) may be moved to Game Over a little early - this is a task which has to fit around their real lives & also when they have some spare 'online' time.
    SUGGESTION
    : If you really want to only enter comps right when they are ending then I strongly suggest you get a couple of days ahead of yourself to avoid the above

    excuse me for being human! they're back now carry on comping

    a pm would have alerted me sooner, I wouldn't have seen this thread if someone hadn't pointed it out to me and the use of the angry smilie does seem a little antagonistic

    If it should happen again, you can always enter them from"game over". If you do an advanced search for say "E: 23/03" but just search for those posted in the last three months, it should bring up most of them. Hope this helps.
  • thanks Glad. It wasn't a dig at you.
    I just wanted them back.
    thanks :)
