Compers Challenge 2019

I don't know if anyone else plans on doing this, but seeing as though I actually seem to be winning prizes this year (:D !!) I thought I'd add their number in for the corresponding 9 entry method types of 1000 comps we are entering, just to see how many wins I have for those 1000 entries (so not counting wins from comps entered before/after those 1000 entries). Not that I'm anywhere near completing most of them yet!
For example....(not my actual stats!)....
48) Enter 1000 TW competitions this year
252/1000 (1 win)
54) Enter 1000 Website competitions this year
1000/1000 completed 26th Jan (4 wins)
......or something like that.....just to give a quick look at a glance which of your entry methods have given you the most wins from the same number of entries (if/once you've reached 1000).
Thought it would make an interesting additional statistic......although I may be the only one who thinks this and it's not part of the official challenge, so I won't be surprised if no-one else joins in with doing it :rotfl:0 -
I won a runners up prize on a competition of a Pets at Home Pets Parcel Holiday Pack
My ladies are very happy :j
As I won it on the last day of the month I am going to wait until I receive it to claim it as my February win

To keep your 9 x 1000 comps challenges on track, you should have at least 84 in each kind

Just idly wondering if taking part in this challenge has changed the way you comp or what you enter for. (I'm bored as I'm snowed in)
For me, I think about the only changes are that I am entering more email comps than I normally would. For example the world book day ones mentioned previously. I am also entering a few more twitter comps to see if I can get to 1000 over the course of the year. (In the days before shadowbanning, I would have entered 1000 easily in a month).
I still don't enter FB or Instagram, although I am toying with the idea of signing up for instagram I have no idea how it works though. Is there a guide out there anywhere for using instagram specifically for comping?
Good luck everyone0 -

Good luck everyone
My idea behind the 9 x 1000 comps was to try and get folks to enter comps they wouldn't normal enter to step outside of their comfort zone and try something different, I can definitely say that is working for me I am definitely entering more of the comps I wouldn't normally enter.
When Mrs Bloggs says I won on FB I will go and try a few FB the same with Instagram ect.
I really don't think over a year entering 1000 of most of the comps will be too hard and folks are realising that after the initial shock :eek:
You need to try a few FB and Instagram Marg you never know you might like them, and hopefully win :T
I have an Ins account but I am by no way an expert in that area but I tried, I think it is vert similar to Twitter, you like the image, comment and tag a friend. From what I can gather it is easier to use on a phone, although I use it on my desk top.
The challenge is meant to be fun, I don't think anyone expects to complete it, it is just something to encourage us to keep plodding on. I like to see what others have won (nosey bugga me)
I would be lost without a year of the Newt and lucinad :rotfl:

It was suggested next year that we enter 2020 of each type of comp :eek:
