I'm wondering why wor Martin isn't waving a French flag and wearing onions around his neck to celebrate the Tour de France? He celebrated the World Cup and Wimbledon - now he is back to his purple shirt!

I put a puzzler.com competitions - regularly updated
next to puzzler thread to help hilite it as when it first started peeps were always looking for it :rotfl::D

the triangle is usually used when posting comps that have a short ending date or next day/day after ending date/
sometimes used to hilite an unusual comp as well

i'm never sure after all these years why someone puts the

icon,

think it's horrible :eek::rotfl:

Hilite? Isn't that a small country just up from Jamaica?

I've always wondered how some of the regulars manage to do everything in a day, like dailies, clicks, mag dailies, and keep up with the board, talk on here and search for other comps.

I know some of you have full time jobs too but it always amazes me you get it all done! Oh to be organised!


I wondered how everyone coped before the end dat system :P x

I keep "on top" in various ways but in answer to the main question posed I never enter the: clicks, mag dailies

I very rarely enter a daily comp more than once in total as I tend to forgot & just cannot be really that bothered to get them all organised.

I just tend to comp via these two links:

Plus "keeping on top" is not really that important in the end.If I miss posting a regular comp there is usually someone else that will post it up.
Missing entering comps is not a big issue as I just enter & forget .I long ceased getting hung up on the statistics eg noting win ratios or totalling comps entered.
I just enter & forget.Hopefully the odd one will come back to me.

Ive wondered sometimes,
these so-called blogs that compers seem to be setting up constantly nowadays, when they run comps do (BIG prizes only) they basically 'give' it to one of their friends etc.. (random.org etc can just be re-drawn until that blogger gets her friends name etc.. on there so it doesnt look funny)?

If I commented on all the wrong spelling and grammatical errors I wouldn't have time for actual comping let alone real life...
