Have your say on the future of Competitions Time

Could we look at improving the search functionality? It’s currently quite temperamental. For example, when I search for ‘MD’ (for Mag Daily), it returns 21,000 results. Even when I try to filter by ‘Standard Online Competitions’, all the game-over ones still appear.

Also, could we please have checkboxes visible in the search results, so we don’t have to click into each individual entry to see whether we’ve entered or not? This would save so much time! 

Lastly, it would be really helpful if the checkboxes had a neutral/default state. At the moment, if I accidentally tick a competition I haven’t actually entered, the only option available is to mark it as ‘Skipped’, even though I might want to enter later.

Apologies if any of this has already been raised, I did have a quick check beforehand.

Thanks

I think we all want it displayed the way we want it

If we could display it the way we want to see it everyone would be happy?
Have a personal settings option to hide MD, Social Media, RS etc.
I would also like to be able to hide low value prizes, e.g. sub £100, but I would imagine this would be very difficult

Thanks.

It would make things a lot easier for me if the Search results were formatted in exactly the same way as the normal forum display, i.e. showing the green tick/red cross so that I can tell whether I've already entered the comps that are shown when I do a search

As I don't  do Social Media or MD, I would like them to in their own separate sections please

I think for many of us, the more separate sections you have, the more complicated and time consuming it becomes. Fine to make it clear in the heading (eg by the "MD") where it's come from so people can choose but not in separate sections.

I use the tick/cross options to keep track of what I have/haven't entered and use the compliment button to 'thank' the user of any competitions I enter. 

As others have mentioned, it would be useful for the links to open in a new tab, though you can just right-click so not a huge issue. 

I usually work backwards from the last page of competitions I have entered and work my way through the list.

definitely IG and facebook comps separate perhaps
I dont like change when it changed before I remember not being able to hover over to see the comp!
Bring that back would be good.
