    Ended on 62 but I think a couple knocked off early
    Wait you can enter more than 32 times? I thought in the terms it says you can only enter 32 times a draw?

    I've never attempted to ring more than 32 times, but if you try and ring more than 32 does it tell you that you've entered too many times? 
  • its usually 32 (on the 33rd it tells you that you have exceeded the entries)
    but today i did 60 entries (some rounds let you enter more)

    I often have problems if I try to enter in the last couple of hours before it closes, I think it's just the sheer volume of people trying to enter.
    I try and do mine in the evenings when the lines aren't busy - I'll do mine tonight ready for Monday  :)

    I've no idea whether it makes any difference at all what times you enter but just in case, I try to spread my entries out.
