    I wondered if it had something to do with it being German. The confirmation message was in German, so perhaps it's not for Brits?

    Thanks. I think it is open worldwide and has been posted for the last few years. Here is last years thread.

    I won on this a few years ago, and there were no problems.

    I have PM'd Glad and requested the thread https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5371052 be re-instated.

    This year's is still live here http://www.trustedwatch.com/christmas here and today's question is

    Question from the 2. December

    Which disadvantage does a half perpatual calender have, compared to a perpetual calender?
    The calender has to be adjusted every 50 years by a watchmaker.
    The date indicator has to be adusted daily to show the next day.
    Leap years are not considered.

    Although I haven't looked at the answer yet

    Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year

    Day 2 I answered -

    The calender has to be adjusted every 50 years by a watchmaker.

    Got a tick so guessing that's right but no letter, it did say I'd entered successfully.

    My answer for day 2 is Leap years are not considered



    The trusted watch site is translated into English from German so Half Perpetual = Semi Perpetual


    I entered using One-Eye's answer and got a red cross, and no letter :(

    :beer:

    I again answered using One-Eye's answer and a red cross, but on refreshing the page it turned to a green tick :j

    Hi Blulu,
    I've won in the past with them. May be they are changing the competition but to me it sounds that something is gone wrong with their website. What I don't understand is why MSE removed it.
    Thanks to those who help us to win !
