Dry Spell

Hey all been comping for a couple of years and spend about 4-5 hours a day entering. Usually win something every month but its dried up over last few months.
Anyone else going through a spell of no wins....

I know everyone must have them but need some motivation as I'm sure we all do to continue during the advents. :D

    Also not helped by the emails you get saying congrats you're a runner up with x% discount.

    If you get no replies it will be because...

    1) Folks are crazy busy doing the Advents

    or

    2) There has just been a conversation on the exact same topic earlier this week.

    It is now on page 2 of this thread it is called something like "The current state of comping"

    ;)

  • The last 2 years has been a big dry spell for me. Apart from April this year when 2 wins came at once. In October to December I must have broken a record for how many I have entered but am yet to have won anything. I think all my luck has run out.
