Evening All, have now completed about a month of my return to comping so thanks to all the new and old faces posting comps.
Upon my return, just a few comments, all in jest of course.
1. I still haven't won the bloody fish slice, I'm not going to give in until it's done.
2. The "Selling your sole to the devil" thread is awesome, though I hadn't paid much attention to them until now but I can't help it. OMG thankyou for....... grrrrrrrrrrr
3. The absence of ITV Comps makes me sad
4. How many sites doing click to wins ???? I'm aiming for twice a week to complete them all but that's it.
5. Mag dailies is as good as it ever was, thanks to Jambo, Cornish & WAG for maintaining especially.
6. 4 weeks in and won not a bean, I still think I'm at a disadvantage entering all these comps for wimmin things as a bloke but shall persist.
Good luck all.

I'm unsure what you're saying. thousands of people haven't won a fish slice who've been trying for months. No idea why they want one though they only cos a quid. 4 weeks comping and not won anything? Hardly surprising hun. Also depends on how many you're entering. The hardy compers enter between 1000 and 2000 a week.August-September 2017: Lots of stuff

I think perhaps the OP was trying to lighten the mood, make a few people smile and basically join in with some light hearted banter!
Not sure why they think we need it round here....

No idea why you've decided to post a non relevant little dig post other than to try to up your enormous posting history of 85 to 86. OP asked questions and i answered the ones i could. Which part of their post is banter again? No idea what your response is about hun apart from a little dig for some reason and maybe some attention as you don't post often. I am unsure why you felt the need to make a totally non relevant little dig. However it made me giggle so ty for that (Not nice someone having a dig is it? Maybe think before you type hun. Your dig was absolutely unneccessary).
1) Many people haven't won a fish slice so no idea why they think its odd they haven't after 4 weeks of trying.
2) Entering 200 comps a weeks is a very small amount and so their odds of winning a prize are much lower.
However now you have a whole 86 posts:) Am moving along because i've no interest in watching you make a 87th post about nothing. Wd though keep it up I'm routing for ya:) xx August-September 2017: Lots of stuff

To be fair, the OP does say that it's all in jest hence the interpretation that it's light-hearted commentary.
The fish slice thing for example, is a running joke among many compers that haven't won it - as it's a weekly comp that they enter every week, even though it's for something so small.
The joking 'abuse' i got when i posted a picture of mine after winning it was entertaining!0 -

Any need for this? Seems to be an extremely petty reply to be fair, the initial post was made in jest as was luckyloo's reply. I don't know whether there is history between you two but live and let live and yes i have upped my post count by 1 now as well.2011 Jarlsberg Cheese Hamper Case of cans of spirits and mixers Waitrose Cheese Plate Gu Pudding vouchers Years supply of Heinz Ketchup Karl Lagerfeld Scarf iPad2 5* Hotel Stay and £100 food and drink tab Photoshoot and Outfits £100 Matalan vouchers Black Grouse Whisky, Pistachio Nuts, £500 hotel giftcard, cheese plate.0 -

Wow you really like the word "dig" don't you
My posting history is neither hear not there I have won some lovely prizes and enjoyed chatting and finding out about some lovely MSE member, most of which I have found to be polite, informative and friendly....
If I want attention I speak to real life people and avoid words like "dig" and "Hun" and I tend to find I get on just fine!
I have actually just been awarded my 3 year MSE badge which I will treasure almost as much as I would a fish slice :rotfl: (btw for those minions below you with the mere double digit posts, fish slices are a running joke almost like a initiation prize into the coming world, hence was one of the reasons that I took the OP in jest...
Oh and the fact they clearly stated it was a bit of fun!!0 -

I think you need to go back and re-read, "hun".0 -
If ever there was a list of words that make me get the rage then 'Hun' would be at the top of it I think Serenity's response to the OP's obviously light-hearted thread was exactly the kind of thing that stops people posting here and totally uncalled for. 0
