    I i participate in many competitions every day but i never won, there is something wrong :(:(:(
    Ive been entering these competitions all year, probably about ten per day, and I've never won once :( feels a little disheartening seeing everyone winning several prizes each month....where am I going wrong?

    Unfortunately some people win every other competition they enter and others work hard entering loads and not winning a single thing.

    I won the first competition I ever entered (Flat screen TV from Heart Radio) ever since then I was fond of competitions but didn't win or enter many. It was only since I started comping again that I generally win around 4 a month. So it is worth putting the time and effort in, Gleam and Rafflecopters often show the number of entrants, so entering low entry competitions always make the odds more on your side and entering daily competitions are always good (Quizonaut for one) as they are only open for a short amount of time.

    10 a day isn't that many at all, in comparison to how many are out there and how many entrants.

    Sorry to hear you are waiting for your first win after years of comping, but I'm glad you are spurred on!


    Huge congratulations to everyone who is entering and have entered competitions, I hope luck is on your side for the following month. :T
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.
