I am happy to go along with what ever is the easiest for B*C

I've thought for some time that they could be posted together, as with the mag dailies.
Far less effort for BC to post, and far less effort (particularly at this mad busy time of year) for us to tick or cross so I've voted yes to condensing.

Ive voted for them to be condensed but again happy for BC to do what is easiest.I don't feel I have the right to say whats easiest for me it needs to work for her

I saw them all last night and all I could think was OMG poor BC having to post pages and pages worth of them. I've hardly come up for air this last few days just entering alone and I don't work !!. I take my hat off to all that post the comps, update us and manage to continue doing so at this time of year alongside entering themselves.

Together - I nearly dropped my latte when I saw them all listed seperately this am! What with all the Advents.......!

Thanks OP, it's a great idea..

Can we extend this to FB comps, where there is often a Twitter entry route too.

That's a good idea, hadn't thought of that - eg. the Wallis "win it Wednesday" Dorothy Perkins Thursday giveaway, many more I can't think of off the top of my head - there is normally one prize and they choose someone from either Twitter or FB to win, so makes sense it should just be one post with the relevant entry routes both shown!

Yes and also those comps like these ones where the same comp is posted about 6 times:

E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (South Wales)
E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (North East)
E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (Merseyside)
E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (London)
E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (Kent)
E: 29/01 Win An Exotic Honeymoon In Borneo (Essex)

This company runs lots of these so sometimes 6 comps are posted as 36 comps (if you know what I mean!)

Bluebella, would you post these as

Wedding mag (essex) various prizes

Or

Win a honeymoon (regional)

ie separate them by publication or by prize.


Also regarding one eye's post #6
If they have differing end dates within a day or two, you could post with the shortest date and end daters would always get the chance to enter the 5 max, or post on the latest date and they would always be able to enter at least one. Remember it is all the same comp, just giving the option of multiple entries. I can't see a problem with the former. The latter would probably cause a few moans.
