Anyone out there prepared to take on posting one, or more, Puzzler Magazine comps?

Puzzler put the same competition in multiple magazines, so we can cover all competitions with regular posters for 1-7 below. Meaning that a volunteer would only need to regularly post the answer to one competition in any group, to cover the entire group's competitions.

Not currently being covered:

4) Puzzler Special  - regular poster = Volunteer Needed

6) Q Junior Puzzles  - regular poster = Volunteer Needed

7) Puzzler Quiz Kids  - regular poster = Volunteer Needed

Thanks to those covering regular comps.

    Hi, never worry about stating something that might be obvious - usually it isn't :D

    My understanding is that in each group, there are a number of puzzle magazines, but each offers the same competition, with the same answer. So folk can enter once per group. This, I think, means that a volunteer would only need to buy any one magazine, per group, per month to provide the one solution.

    Someone will, no doubt, say if I'm wrong, or missing something 🌞

    @marcia_ That would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

    So, please choose one group from the list above, meaning that you buy any one magazine from that group each month, and let me know which group. I will then delete that group from the OP here, and I will add your name to the OP on Puzzler magazine, for that same group. That is helpful, because then people can know who to contact for any relevant @marcia_

     I suggest that when you post the answer, copy and paste the list of magazines for the group, so that we can see which magazines that answer covers.

    Shout for help if you need to.

    Thanks again

    Edit, just seen that @Abbafan1972 is offering to cover group 3, so, if it is OK with you, I will assign that group to her, leaving you to choose an alternative. Is that OK?

    From the main Puzzler thread, our @Rodsley50 has commented, "I'm sorry but I've decided to cancel my subscription to Puzzler Collection due to increase in the cost.  However I will still buy some copies (just not everyone) and I'm happy to list the competitions I find.  I appreciate someone might be happy to cover every issue and I'm happy to stand back if this occurs."

    So, obviously, it's a huge thanks for what Rodsley50 has done up to now.

    I'm not sure about the best way to proceed because we don't want to risk posting dupes, partly in case of entries not counting and partly because we don't want you, or anyone else, to buy the magazine especially to post the competition, only find someone else has posted it. I guess it could be shared between more than one person, but that would need posters to agree which issues to cover, ahead of buying the magazines.

    Any thoughts, guys?
