Has Anyone Ever Won a Twitter Comp?

I set up a twitter account just for comping, and rarely post anything else on there. Do you reckon that affects your chances?

I've pondered that, but the majority of the people I've seen win with companies/brands have had lots of competition RTs on their timelines and little else. At least 2 out of the 3 Shorn the Sheep iPads were won by people RTing comps iirc, which I found reassuring! I'll tweet the odd thing about something on TV or in the news to make it look less of a spam account (I'm actually preferring it to my main timeline lately :rotfl:). To answer your original Q, I've won a couple of small things on there.

Misslayed- do you interact with the companies? x

I have won once via twitter this year.

But I post a lot of competitions and some people disqualify those accounts that are mostly competitions due to some people having bots set up for comping accounts. I have been meaning to go through my account and delete old competitions as I'm a genuine person but it would take a lot of time and effort due to some competitions still being active and not all of them including an end date on the main post.

i do better on twitter than anywhere, won a cheese making course at river cottage, an orla keily gift set, a rucksack, a loo seat loo brush and bathroom bin, a hamper and 50 matchboxes engraved with our business details in the last few weeks, my account is only used for comping with a few photos of my alpacas or something i have baked

After posting this, this evening I get a DM to say I've won a scarf I was after from a twitter competition. How about that?!

Only in that I answer questions or post photos if asked to, and if I cba I post an emoji comment, if I can think of a relevant one. But tbh I don't really know if it makes a difference, just belt and braces!

the problem with twitter is that you can have more than one account & there are quite a few well known for multiple accounts which use bots to enter so whilst you are playing by "the rules" and enter once they are entering the same comp 10, 20 times or more & you have 5 people like this your single entry soon looks a little lost

My first win this year was a pair of trainers from Mens Running, entered via twitter.
