    Thanks OP

    Hope you don't mind me adding from terms:

    To enter the prize draw for the star prizes, you are required to play the Argos Dad’s Academy game and score a penalty. The scoring of the penalty is randomly generated – there is no element of skill involved.

    3 spot prizes per day are available to be won throughout the competition. These are randomly allocated to users who score a penalty. There is no element of skill involved.

    Users are allowed to enter the competition once per day as standard. There is an opportunity to share the game on Facebook [ETA - see my post #5 - you could have extra entries per FB/TW share]

    ETA I can't see this in dailies - added to dailies here :)

    I checked FB login today and it worked for me - you can then share or tweet for an extra entry :D

    ETA - I did shares on FB and TW and then got:

    Congratulations on your goal! You’ve been entered into our prize draw. Play again tomorrow to better your chances.

    So no 'spot prize' but an entry into the draw is fine by me :)

    So that means you could have [STRIKE]up to 3 goes per day[/STRIKE] unlimited (??) entries using the sharing mechanisms - HTH ;)

    I have been following Biker*Chicks advise above to get extra shots. Today I scored on my first shot and going on to share then does not get any extra shots. So stop at your first goal of the day unless of course you just want to share on FB or twitter.

    Just to add, I've since noticed that it always says 'share for an extra entry' and this happens each time you miss, so I attempted multiple shares today and after 9 'shares' got an entry into the draw :rotfl:

    FYI I didn't want to bombard friends on FB or TW so only shared on FB to 'close friends' as it wouldn't allow me to share with 'only me' :eek: and then I quickly deleted the shares once my entry into the draw was complete ;) Not sure if I'm circumventing any 'rules' here, but hey ho! HTH :D

    also noticed that if you click on twitter to 'share' and wait a minute before clicking tweet it gives you another go without actually having to tweet...just hope it went through haha
