    hi, lots of comps get posted on here before the opening date,
    i'll be busy tomorrow so wanted it up ready for everyone &
    I have put in the title ..

    OPENS 12.00am 01/03

    also on top of the op in bold red so's peeps
    can tell straight away :)

    ** Draw 12 - OPENS 12.00am on 1 March **

    ..

    do you think it would be better if none of us post the comps
    before they are open on the boards,
    there's quite a lot of them!

    I have man-flu so I'm not really with it but, in general, yes I do think people should hold off on posting comps until they are open, esp the monthly ones like this.
    The only ones worth posting early are ones like tomorrow's hourly Times comp.

    Considering I had 8 typos in this, you can see why I entered early... *crawls back to bed*

    Thank you for posting FF! I agree with you, lots of comps get posted on here before the opening date by people who maybe have commitments so cannot post it on the day or they don't want to forget etc. I just subscribe to those posts so I will be notified by email when someone bumps to say 'now open' :)
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    hi, maybe we should have a poll on peeps posting comps
    before they are open &/or posting pages for comps
    not open yet,
    there are loads of them posted just lately,

    it would save a lot of bookmarking/subscribing to
    threads if there was a general rule comps aren't
    posted until the opening date :)

    Good idea FF. You are right, lots get posted before the start date eg The Times and Glamour comps were both posted today and they don't start until tomorrow - I don't mind though as I just subscribe to them by email but maybe it should go to public vote? :)

    thanks bluebella :)
    I agree it would save a lot of subscribing/bookmarking etc
    if comps weren't posted before the opening date but
    as you say if we have commitments/want to get the comp up for others in case of whatever it's just as easy to subscribe to them
    & wait for notification.

    Well I am happy as it is - I think the people who post comps up early usually always state 'not open until xx/xx' anyway to make people aware. :)

    Maybe hannonle can start a poll if they think it is necessary.

    hi, it would be a great idea if someone could start a poll/
    ask in Compers Chat Corner,
    at least that way we would get a rough idea if peeps were for/against/not bothered either way/
    if they were/weren't etc,
    I would start one if I knew how to :eek:
