    Hi, could I ask for clarification on this, please?

    Are these rounds the same as the last? I.e. if someone wins one of these bonus round cash prizes, they ARE still eligible for the next MMAW competitions?

    I can't see for looking in the T&C's, though I can still see the £500 in six months limitation on winners for all of Bauer, but can't see the MMAW terms state these bonus rounds are excluded from that.

    Perhaps someone else can see what I'm looking for, please? Thanks x

    yes, if you win a bonus round you will still be eligible for the main prize

    I HAVE PREVIOUSLY WON A PRIZE. AM I ELIGIBLE TO WIN AGAIN?

    Yes. If you win Make Me A Winner or another competition on makemeawinner.co.uk, you are able to enter, and eligible to win, all future competitions.

    That answer is to a different question. Whether you can enter and win future competitions is not the same as whether you can win more than one prize in the same competition.

    Interestingly, I'm getting the below at that link:

    I have previously won a prize. Am I eligible to win again?

    If you have won more than £500 in any previous Bauer Media Competition over the past 6 months you are not eligible to win. For more details on this, please see the Bauer Media Group Competition General Terms & Conditions

    But that answer (which is an answer to the first question) is at odds with the paragraph you have quoted, and the terms, which state:

    Clause 4.12 ("Prize Limits") of the Bauer Media Group Competition General Terms & Conditions shall not apply to the Competition. To be explicit, if you win this competition, you will still be able to enter Make Me A Winner or other competitions on makemeawinner.co.uk moving forwards.

    But the terms also state:

    Only one prize can be won throughout the duration of this Competition.

    That is an answer to the second question, and it quite clearly means you cannot win both a splash prize and the main prize.

    That term would be pointless if there were no bonus prizes, because otherwise there is only one prize on offer throughout the competition. So I can only assume therefore that it is a deliberate decision to include it.

    It would be harsh if you were excluded from the main prize if you won the bonus prize, but that's how I am interpreting the terms.

    "It would be harsh if you were excluded from the main prize if you won the bonus prize, but that's how I am interpreting the terms."

    Regardless of how they may have tied themselves in knots, if you were paying to enter the big prize then winning a small one would not stop you winning what you entered for (assuming the small prizes are not "runner-up" type things).

    Also since they’re now open for two weeks, you could aim to make 20 (to give you a bit of leeway) calls a days.

    Pros: not so many calls a day. Easier to catch up if you miss a day. Spreads out your entries.

    Cons: need to do this for two draws simultaneously.
