C2W question, just out of interest.

These aren't worth entering now then?

One entry still gives you a chance just even less chance than before.


Say an automated site has 20,000 users, for a comp running 2 months on 50 of the c2w sites that's 60,000,000 extra entries.

I cant really be bothered with the click to win comps. The first time I did it I went through all of the sites entering the ones I fancied which took couple of hours and was really boring - by the end I was sick of the seeing the same competitions and entering them time after time. I enter on my iPad and don't want to put the scripts on my laptop (call me old fashioned but I don't really want to mess with my computer - it isn't great at the best of times). I'm sure it doesn't do any damage but I don't really get it!

I'm with mjm on this - I now just enter from just the win something website so have one entry and then every now and again if I'm at a loose end.

Put like that, they sound like a wast of time. They used to be my bread and butter when you had to prove you were human.

I must admit before working it out I had not really thought about the total number of entries just one of those sites could be adding - even for a comp on only 5 sites for a couple of months it's still 6,000,000 extra entries.

At the same time they may not do them, although with only an e-mail address required, 200 odd different competitions and £10,000's of prizes up for grabs it would be bread and butter for them and make it easy to meet their claims about number of prizes/value they enter people for.
