Competitions Discussion Thread Part 3

I've only been using this site for about three weeks now,so for newbies like me its marvellous, on this one though you dont have to fill in your name at the end just tick the t&c.

Also, while you can download it for free, if you want to keep more than a certain number of logins after the first (trial) month, you will need to pay for it.

It's worth the money though - saves loads of time

He has 2 brothers, 1 is training to be a doctor & is in a relationship the other is still single but in college. His dad is still happily married to his mum

In MSE community spirit though, if you need to ask him anything you can always pm me & I'll act as piggy in the middle Or if it is a bit more involved I'll rent him out at £20 per hour 'mates rates' :rotfl:

Worth a try though. Does the doctor one know about eggtimers disease? I seem to have got a dose of it today. Must slow down, will be my newest mantra. (no poo in that one kipper).

So this autofill is that the one that has the little arrows that I click and it gives me the info to input, or is it more automatic than that? A url of the site would be great.
Thanks

hi all, I have a question for the posters who have been on here a while. Obviously there are loads more compers these days, do you find you're comping wins have gone up since there have been more compers? Or down? Or stayed the same? Just interested!

It is a Firefox add-on. Click on this link here The one I have is Autofill Forms 0.7.0.1

After pre-filling your basic info, when a comp page is displayed I simply hold down alt & press J or I click the pencil icon that I dragged up to my Navigation Toolbar.


Then it will fill in the fields it recognises - most times it is fantastic, other times if a web designer has used naff/no description on his form boxes then it get a little confused & I have to revert to one of my other tools.

Hope this helps & I have no clue what eggtimers disease is! Sounds terrible! :eek:

Hi Compers

Have been faithfully recording every comp I enter in a little book, but I'm getting a bit bored of doing it now. Do you all bother, and if so, is it a useful exercise?

I don't get time to record every comp i enter and TBH I don't see the point in it. I do record the ones I've won though, where they were won from and the value.

I just tick thanks on the ones Ive entered on here so I know if Ive entered. I dont know how you have the patience to record them one by one!

Sophika

No I think it's wearing thin..am going to ditch it at once!
