Those of us who entered the wrong answer Thor have now missed out on the chance of entering today's competition.

One Eye gives us the answers everyday out of the goodness of their heart. Let’s not be complaining. 

Absolutely! Thanks One Eye! 😊

Just a few points:

1. There have been 42 comps so far and I have posted answers for 41 of them.
2. I have only 40 seconds to write down the answers if I am sure of them, or the answer options and questions if I'm unsure.
3. Any "Which is NOT" questions take much more time and effort than "Which is" questions.
4. If I get 5 out of 5 myself, then the answers are posted within 2 minutes of the comp starting.
5. If I guess wrong, I have to search for the correct answer and I still post within 4 minutes.
6. The incorrect answer was shown for less than 2 minutes and corrected at 1:05pm
7. I manage to enter correctly myself in just over half the comps.
8. I do it because I know my comping colleagues appreciate it, and if I can't win I would prefer one of them to do so, and quite a few have won.

For those who realise they have entered far more days correctly than they would have if the answers hadn't been posted - I appreciate your thanks and support.

Thank you One-Eye, myself and others have won from you posting your answers to this quiz every day.  I honestly don't know how you do it in the time.  You are one of the most prolific posters on Competition time, and I and many others are more than grateful.  Thank you so much.
Best wishes

Hear hear !! I think some compers forget the time and trouble that it takes to post competitions not to mention the financial cost of magazines etc.
Posters do it willingly and are glad when someone on the forum wins from their posting.
At the moment One-Eye you are one of the members that is keeping this forum going so many many thanks for all you do 👏

Couldnt agree more, how many of the winners would have won if it had not been for one eye posting the answers. Cant thank you enough for posting the answers on here. Giving others possibly more of a chance than one eye themselves

I did wonder a while ago how you managed to get all the answers whilst entering yourself. Some of those questions are hard. I appreciate you doing this very much. As you know I'm semi quitting competitions for now and I only do a few big ticket ones and easy ones and if I miss them, well so be it. As it happens life got in the way today and I completely missed this one. Still thank you so much for all your posting and organising of threads.

Thank you for posting the answers each day. Not sure if this would help, but have you thought about recording your screen when entering? This might help in that you wouldn't have to write down the answers at the same time as when you enter, i.e. you could watch the video back after you have entered.

For instructions on screen recording on a Windows PC, there are some instructions here, https://www.laptopmag.com/uk/articles/how-to-video-screen-capture-windows-10

For a Mac there are instructions here, https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208721

Or if you are using a phone check out - https://www.techradar.com/uk/how-to/record-your-screen, for information

With the competition open for 30 minutes, I wouldn't mind waiting 5 to 10 minuites for the answers to be posted, should you wish to check the answers before posting, and i'm sure the others wouldn't mind waiting either.
