    I find Loquax really easy to use, I enter competitions a couple or so days before closing date, using the Quick Comps section. It's only rarely that I mistakenly enter a competition more than once and if anyone has problems finding the answer to a comp question, someone on the forums will always point you in the right direction.

    What I find unacceptable is the poster (I forget his name) who posted on the MSE forums, blatantly bragging about deliberately 'raiding' Loquax comps. His post has been removed now.

    As to listed comps, there are currently around 37 pages listed on Loquax of competitions finishing on 31st December. Everyone on MSE posts lots of comps but I find Loquax more organised, as you would expect from an organised competition website.

    I love MSE for all things financial and pop into the comps section here, but mainly use Loquax.

    Good luck

    I only use here as I couldnt remember what I had entered, I did venture over to loaquax once when this site crashed ;)
    What we see depends mainly on what we look for

  • I use both. Start on here doing all the ones from where I left off on the previous day. Then I go to the "new today" quick comps on Loquax and enter any that aren't on here (can't get the hang of the Tracker so quick comps is the way to go for me). Then I go to the Loquax forums to enter the WWW & SMS ones. Oh and also the local forums on there too for comps near me.
    I also love reading the winners posts on both sites.
    Both sites are great!! :D:D:D

    good idea. Has anyone got his e-mail address?

    You could probably just pm Jason via this site as he posts on here under the username loquax :)
  • I used to use Loquax but since getting my new computer for some reason I can't get onto any of their pages at all.
    I've pm Jason and hoping for a reply soon.:D

    I mainly used the forum section on loquax but do go into the ending today section as well and just hope I'm not duplicating any comps.

    Hi there. There is a discussions thread at the top of the page- a sticky. This one is for comps only. Why is it that this board is being glogged up with these discussions - mods?

    Yes thank you, I know that. I just thought I'd give it an *airing* on the main board before it got buried in the mammoth discussions thread. :rolleyes:

    If you find these discussions threads so annoying why waste your time reading them & responding on them? Why not just scroll down to the comps underneath, I'm sure that would be quicker.
    :):D Tightwad. And proud of it! :D:)

    Just out of interest how much did you pay to use Loquax when you made your handful of posts but thanked our users over 2500 times for the free comps they posted?

    Also how many times have we charged you for access? How many magazines have we sold you? How many times have we sent you stuff through the post? How many times have we sold your data?

    The total will be 0!

    Do we have advertisers and affiliates - well yes - but like MSE we have overheads - and sorry Claner but this site is as equally commerical as we are in that it has costs, makes a profit and uses advertisers and affiliate programs.
