Nope. The huge numbers every one else posts work dark magic on me - inadequacy x competitiveness = bad hand times!

I'm going to toddle on doing 40-50 a day and annoying everyone with wins from such a rubbish entry rate


And THAT is how you jinx yourself!

i'm doing about the same entries as c2w i feel are too long odds and there's !!!!!! all on here. i've added you on - just to keep track of the wins
Didn't have you down as a competative person

I'm not! 9 times out of 10 I just can't be ersed. Told you - dark magic

I'd never ever done mag dailies so it was a big step change for me and - meh. Same with the click to wins. Fair play to anyone who does do them but they're not for me. They're attractive because there are less big prizes around but the effort to really have a chance at them - all mags every day - I'm not built for that.

Also I'm amazed I've ever won anything on Twitter seeing the number of entries some people do - more power to you.

And now I'm going to fix my spreadsheet - added me in indeed! *wanders off muttering about autosums and averages*

Could fix the averages while you're there to 2 decimal places

I won my first prize on Twitter! A lip balm and I'm way more excited than I should be about a lip balm!

They haven't followed me though - I have asked politely - so hopefully they do and I get my prize, otherwise I'm back to 0 haha

I do 1-2 hours of c2w/mag dailes in the evening while watching TV and as silly as it sounds I find it a great distraction to snacking - it keeps me busy/distracted (instead of popping to the kitchen for a snack to eat while watching TV) and before I know it the times flown by and it's time for bed. Also, throughout the day when I get spare few minutes, I enter a few comps, again rather than snacking - I've cut out chocolate bars completely and have lost 10lbs since the beginning of the year (although I wasn't overweight to start with, just eating too much sugar), with no other changes in my lifestyle. Basically I've swapped one unhealthy habit for another

Watch out, this better not lead to one of those magazine/newspaper articles - "I've won thousands of pounds in prizes and lost 3st since I started comping....and you can too!"

It's just a random by-product, it wasn't intentional and I certainly won't be loosing 3st (although the thousands of pounds in prizes sounds a nice pipe dream to have)!

sorry to butt in this thread(I've been lurking), I've been doing that too:rotfl: It's been a great tool in my recovery, cant eat and type/click at the same time and the Wifi is terrible in the kitchen. By the time I'm finished with the days posts its bed time
