    Can I ask how many comps do you guys enter on a daily basis?


    I am quite picky and only enter ones I actually want to win rather than everything. This way I like to think I am being a bit fairer.


    Currently I enter approx. 25 per day, but I am guessing this isn't even close to what serious compers do.

    LBM 12.09.12 - £53K in debt.
    DFD - 11.07.2019 (OMG).
    New DFD is 28.10.2018 due to paying the absolute maximum.

    Thanks to everyone on the DMP forum, and to SC for helping me out of this huge hole.

    I entered over 5000 competitions in August (that was being picky for me) and didn't have any wins :p

    WOW, over 160 per day average, including weekends and a bank holiday. How much of your time everyday is spent doing that?


    P.S. I hope you win something soon!

    I took a few weeks off in June/July so caught up with everything :o I can do over 100 in 1.5 hours or less a day, but it can seem to take forever if I'm procrastinating on the internet while doing them. From what I've read on the boards people tend to do about 100 a day, that way you can forget about what you've entered. See this thread.

    Thanks! You too :) x
