  • Great idea! I just googled my name and I'm an American swimmer who wins weekly. ...I've just updated my facebook with a pseudo name in the middle (my sons) to help filter any wins.

    Love this idea and will be googling weekly now too :rotfl:

    Thanks for the tip and well done to the OP.

    I've googled my name a couple of times, I have 2 possible names actually (a comping name for when leaving comments and my real name when it comes to filling in forms - both names are similar.) but it usually just shows the comments I've made on comps.
