Tagging in Competitions Time

Hi everyone,
Following on from this post, I'm planning out Tagging on Competitions time.
Starting off with a pilot test for 'Entry Method' tags.
If Compers find them useful, we can keep them and even add more in future if there is demand.
If they aren't useful, we can disable them.
Please let us know what entry methods you would like to have a tag?

I will comment on the other thread w.r.t. my opinions of tagging
Here is my first draft for possible entry method tagging.
Main Methods
A1 - Entry Form (DEFAULT - so may not be needed?)
A2 - email
A3 - App (you need to download & use a 3rd party App)
MSE user derived categories
M0 - Daily Entry
M1 - Enter Early (single entry comps with multiple draws until a final end date)
M2 - Newsletter (newsletter sign-up is compulsory to enter)
M3 - MD - Mag Daily
M4 - RS - Raffle Site
M5 - On Air
M6 - Effort (you need to write a story or submit a photo etc)
M7 - Collect (prize must be collected)
M8 - Geographical Restrictions (this is my suggestion for a new one that is needed)
Contest Platforms (in my opinion these could be combined as a single tag)
G1 - GL - Gleam
G2 - VS - ViralSweep
G3 - SW - Sweepwidget
G4 - Woobox (I suspect this is not needed)
Social Media
S1 - IG - Instagram
S2 - FB - Facebook
S3 - TT - Tik Tok
