Deliberately rigged competition?

It seems very suss to me that this is the very first question you have asked on this forum. :cool:
People can not help you if you do not give them the required information to do so.
It is like me saying ... Hey folks I have found a competition, but I don't the answer to the question can you help me.
The compers need to know the competition you are talking about to be able to help!!!“I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.” - Billy Joel

There is a thread on here where members can warn others of scams so why does theis scam have to be kept a secret? I am sure we would all love to know who the company is so we can avoid entering their giveaways in future.
I'm sorry but seems a little suspicious that a newbie, who only just joined this month, can have such an indepth knowledge into the comping world? Why should we help you if you don't want to help us? Most members on here share competitions, answers, give advice and in return, have their own queries answered. Seems you are a little selfish in holding your cards firmly to your chest!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0 -
† There is a third option which I didn't consider originally:
everyone gets the "no-win" code until it is decided they can win on the server, then they get the "win code" for just that attempt. It is still an odd way to do it, for many reasons - you're still sending "can win" code to the browser and it could still be exploited.
Bit if someone did try to expoit it, the time or number stamp of their win wouldn't match with the pre-set selection - I'm sure it would be quite easy to spot a fraudster.
It's a big company & plenty of people have reported wins, so I don't really see that there's a complaint to be made.TOP MONEYSAVING TIP

Originally the OP was saying that it was impossible for anyone to win, due to the programming of the game, now they're saying winning is open to cheating from people that know how to crack the programme code.
No further details, no evidence of anything other than genuine winners, only a conspiracy theory :cool:TOP MONEYSAVING TIP

And, of course, the school holidays have started...:cool:"If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you. "

I think the more interesting question here is who?
The style of posting reminds me of somebody but I can't quite put my finger on who.
A new poster who knows how to post a poll thread and so much about the comping community on here?
Pull one of my newt's remaining legs it's got bells on it.Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

Just because someone is a new poster, doesn't necessarily make them new to the boards. They could have set up a new forum account to remain anonymous, for whatever reason.
Adds to the mystery and intrigue if nothing else
