    I wouldn't risk entering both myself. Ts & Cs on the Stylist one say:

    The Promoter: Shortlist Magazine, ShortlistMedia Limited; 26-34 Emerald Street; London WC1N 3QA.

    Only one entry per person. If you enter more than once your first entry will be accepted and all others will be disqualified.

    If your first entry is going to be accepted anyway, then there is no risk if you enter again. As with the majority of online competitions.

  • There are 2x first prize winners. Each will win an opportunity to realise their pastime (to the value of up to £5,000 including any travel expenses). This may be in the form of an experience, equipment or training and will be dependent on the winner’s entry. The prize will be organised as near to the winner’s home as possible. The prize fund cannot be applied to a pre-existing booking unless deemed suitable by the Promoter. The two first prize winners will need to be available to take the prize between 27th November 2017-1st December 2017. If a winner cannot be available on one of these dates, the prize will be forfeited and awarded to a runner up chosen at the same time as the original.

    There are 5x runner up prizes of £500 each.

    It is a condition of entry that the 2x first prize winners will have their prize arranged for them (by Shortlist) and be filmed participating in the prize experience. The filming will take place between 27th November 2017-1st December 2017.


    Shortlist Selection: Up to 10 entries will be compiled by a panel which includes one person independent to the promoter. The shortlisted participants will be contacted by telephone on 21st November 2017 to discuss, verify and further qualify their entries. Shortlisted participants will have 24 hours to respond. Any participant who does not respond will forfeit their place in the final judging process. In the case of any entry, which proves to be false or cannot be corroborated, the participant will be disqualified.

    Winner Selection: The judging will take place on 22nd November 2017. All additional details provided during the verification process by the shortlisted participants will be put before the judging panel. The prizes will be awarded to the two entrants whose entry in the opinion of the judging panel (which includes one person independent to the Promoter and Supplier) is a realistic pastime, based in the UK, that is unique and interesting, as well as explaining why they want to try the pastime and have not up until now.
