How do you use the comp forum?

strawbubbi

I've been thinking lately that the way I use the comp forum could be updated, maybe I'm missing something that will make it easier to keep track of comps I've actually entered, or hide ones I've entered? I use the green tick on the posts if I've entered so I can see it when I scroll through the forums, but besides that is there anything else I could do to make things easier? How do you sort the forum and keep track of comps you enter? Do you do anything about the ones you don't enter? Can you hide say twitter only comps?


Thank you!:j

The titles should make it easy to see what's a twitter comp, etc.

There are red crosses to hit for those you don't want to enter.

You can use the search facility for things like "(tw)" or "Instagram" or "daily" to put crosses next to those. Think it will however pick up ones in game over, etc.

I view in date order. Others view as comps are listed. Up to you what you prefer.

I never keep track of comps I've entered :eek: Kinda pointless. The ticks show me if I've entered.

I use the above link to show 100 comps per page and comp by newly posted.


I use the thanks button as a tracker as it green ticks what I have done and only use the red cross as a marker to where I last left off so when I open the above link I can usually at a glance see where I last left off.


Good luck

That's a great idea on how to mark where you left off! I'm definitely gonna start doing that :)
