    There's something like 65 c2w sites... posting every single comp on the main board is going to send it crazy D: :eek:

    Seems like an awful lot more work for regular posters...? :undecided

    Maybe someone ought to check we have enough people willing to post the CTWs for each site?
    Like the dailies, I think it probably has to be all or nothing, otherwise it will get confusing about which mag's CTWs are on the main board and which aren't.

    Just to add,
    it does seem to have worked well the way it has been done since the CTWs started

    it will mean lots more threads for me to move at the end of every day

    maybe there should have been a few more opinions before the decision was made to post every single one individually

    God please don't post individually on the main board, it will be a nightmare for the BG's and everyone else that has little time in comping wading through all these. Leave them in the CWT thread.
    Think it's about time the comping fairy remembered where I am! lol

    Over 70 and still rising, well over 1,000 entry routes.

    The main site alone has almost 200 which I think includes almost every prize on offer from all the other sites.

    I would very much agree with the bold above.
    Maybe we could all step back & take stock.

    Do we really want the main board suddenly swamped with 1,000 plus comp threads,many of which are essentially for the same prize?

    It will be harder to sort the wheat from the chaff for all us,especially for those that never enter the CTW win comps.Plus as Glad states it is more for work for the two BG's that work this board.

    No real views were canvassed of the whole MSE comping community as far as I can see before this retrograde move was "decided" upon by a minority of the membership.

    sorry but i personally dont agree with this, due to time i find that mag dailies and click to wins are an optional extra for me, if the click to wins were on the main board id find myself spending half my time wading through and may well miss some of the regular competitions.
    January wins so far: 1 :j

    nowhere in this thread was there a decision to post them.
    i think that it is unfair and should be [STRIKE]discussed more.[/STRIKE] argued about

    anyway, i wasnt talking about ctw's in the first place [yes, i now see there are too many of them to list] .... but nevermind ....

    As a person who only comps a few hours most evening, averaging around 20-25 pages of comps to check through each day it would make it difficult, and I am sure there are alot of others the same. It wouldn't be so much of a problem for those who can spend the daytime comping, or full time compers, but I don't think it would be good for everyone :o
