    I agree about this. This need to be a 'sticky' otherwise it gets pushed down and lost in the sea of compos.

    Go down to the bottom of the main comp page and under display options there is a drop down menu for Sorted by, click on Thread start time and click Show Threads. HTH

    I do this and it makes things much easier!

    Thanks for this... I have been using this method this evening and I plan to stick to it as it is easy to see the new threads and is much quicker than trawling through lots of threads to check if I have already clicked the thanks button. I have also added it to my favourites so it automatically comes up in the same order without me having to change it. Excellent. Thanks again. :beer: :T :j

    Also, the other thing which I do, and I know others do too, is subscribe to the daily comp email - lists new postings so I know I havent entered. Only issue with this is the email has been very erratic.

    How do you find out if you have won a competition, is it by post or email. Also how long after the closing date. Thanks jay-jay
    I hope that my child, looking back on today
    Will remember a mother who had time to play;
    Because children grow up while you're not looking,
    There are years ahead for cleaning and cooking.
    So, quiet now cobwebs, dust go to sleep.
    I'm nursing my baby, and babies don't keep.

    I mainly hear about wins via email, or the prize just arrives.
    I think i've only had one phone call in the last six months. I think I received one letter in advance of a prize.

    I'm glad the suggestion of searching by thread start time is useful to some - I find it brilliant for never entering the same thing twice and I also never get annoyed at bumping - so less stress! lol

    I've only had one in the past week.


    IS ANYONE GETTING THE DAILY EMAIL if you are please let us know.
    :D
    I am curious to know if anyone is getting it, as the powers that be tell me that it is probably my IP, I don't think it is,

    I wish :rolleyes: Haven't had one for weeks and am still definitely subscribed. Tried unsubscribing then resubscribing but no joy. Can't see its an ISP thing if you're still subscribed either.

    Also I've noticed the 'I Won I Won' daily updates don't arrive when there is a lot of posts on them. Yesterday I got one for the first one in a couple of days and yep, it was a small email.

    Have no trouble with any other daily emails that are fairly small. Just the biggies!

    Shame we can't get emails automatically once a certain no. of posts have been made, like yahoo forums do. Would make life a whole lot easier ;)
