    I came on here to see if everyone else was having the same problems and you are so glad it’s not just me! Very frustrating. Think I’ll be giving them a miss until the issues are sorted.

    All the MD's seem to be saying 'entered already' when you click 'confirm entry', you have to wait for the comp to go through itself. It's very annoying as it makes entering them very slow! 

    They were fine before the change!

    best way to do each mag is when you've logged in enter all the ones you want to enter ie open each in another page if that makes sense. Then you don't have to keep going back to click on all competitions.

    I add the MSE links of all the ones I enter to bookmarked folders then just open the links from the folder of the magazine I am entering. I find it easier that way as I also have the answers. At the end I just click on competitions to check for new ones that I don't have bookmarked yet. This is done through a pc so is quite easy to do once set up not sure how I would manage if I had to do on an ipad or tablet.

    That is exactly how I do it. I open 5 tabs at a time and sail through.
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus

    If you're on a PC you can open the competition page and then hold down ctrl and click all the ones you want to enter. Ctrl clicking opens them all in new tabs. I do this, enter and close all the tabs except the one with all the competitions, then go onto page 2, ctrl click the ones I want to enter, go to page 3 etc. I find this much quicker :)

    On normal comps I've been known to have 100+ tabs open at once  :lol:

    My method is similar, other than I C&P links and answers of new MDs onto my competition Word document, then click the links from there to enter. It's a bit long-winded to add new comps to the list, but it means I can sail through them daily, once they're there.

    The only glitch for me today was that the log in box doesn't show until I click "log in".
