Are you obsessed with comping?

After a bit of a lucky streak over the last couple of months after months of drought, I now feel that I've become obssessed and enter comps whenever I have a spare minute.

I also started to enter mag dailies and have won a few in a last few weeks so now this is in my ever growing comping routine.

anyone else feel like this and any suggestions on how I can beat my addiction?!

    It's only an obsession if:

    1) You have to "catch up" after missing a few days;
    2) You are ecstatic when you win something even when it ends up costing you money;
    3) You get grumpy if you miskey an answer believing that it just lost you "your" prize;
    4) You bookmark "effort competitions" to "come back to";
    5) You do any or all of these things :D
    Still cracking on....
