Posted comps going straight into game over

Is anyone else having their comps they post go straight into game over. It's the 2nd time it has happened with one of my MD comps I post and not sure why. I've sent a report requesting for it to be moved but wondered if anyone else is having the same problem.

I'm embarrassed to admit that at work I managed to add all the new January data into a spreadsheet but labelled it 2025, so err, just wanted to check you hadn't made the same error.

Thank you. Not sure why it is happening as I couldn't see any mistakes. I noticed it missing when going on the comps page sorted from new.Haribobo19 said:I've not had any issues personally. I'll get yours moved over now though!0 -
No definitely not made the same error as I went and double checked it. It's happened twice now so at least I had an idea this time why it was missing from the main comps board.chocoholic123 said:I'm embarrassed to admit that at work I managed to add all the new January data into a spreadsheet but labelled it 2025, so err, just wanted to check you hadn't made the same error.

@Haribobo19 thanks for bumping a couple of others that I hadn't noticed had gone into game over. I've just noticed another 4 that have also gone into game over too. I don't have a clue why this is happening but can you please move these out from game over too. I've added the links to make it easier for you.

All sorted out now and comps have been moved from game over to the main board. 😊
I contacted the MSE team by email who have helped me work it out. I have always created a new post from my last bookmarked MD comp that I have just entered which has always worked great for me in the past as with MDs I always use my bookmarked links. I can see now though why they are going into game over as the one I have been creating a new post and entering from was in game over even though it shouldn't have been and I hadn't realised it was so it had been having a knock on effect.
Creating a new post from one of my posts not in game over doesn't look to give that issue and would send it to the main board. From now on though I will post them from the create new post when on the Standard Online Competitions board as I do with others I post3
