  • OK point taken. Sorry again.

    I just hoped while we were tidying up the lot why not keep it REAL tidy. Hand on heart I'm sorry if I seemed a bit head teacher about it. :D

    We still friends? :confused:

    Hi there :D

    Start wherever you like!

    All the prizes are listed in the titles, so if you're after specific prizes, or are just planning to enetr randomly, just click a thread title, click on the link (the answers are usually given on here too) & enter!

    If you press your thanks button on each one you enter, it'll not only thank the poster for their time, It will also double as a tracker, (once you press the thanks button, it'll vanish forever, so if you do happen to open the thread again, you'll see the thanks button gone & you'll know you've already entered.) :)
    :):D Tightwad. And proud of it! :D:)
  • I'm confused now as to whether people are going to go with the E: (space) DD/MM now. i understand a uniform method is better, and if they are all posted in the same way, the doing away of the comps ending threads won't matter, as searching by title will group them all together. Therefore the (space) will matter. But if not everyone is going to follow it it won't matter anyway

    Apologies if this has already been posted - I searched but couldn't find what I wanted.

    Does anyone know if there is anywhere to check the answers for the Chat mag special issue. Marina's comp page has the answers for the Take a break special so I can fill in the couple of answers I was missing but not so for Chat. :confused:

    The answer page lists it as Chat Puzzles Issue 1 with a closing date of 28 March 2008.

    Here's hoping

    Regards

    Hi thanks for posting - I'll PM divadee to see if this needs moving - to the discussions forum?:confused:;)

    Why wouldn't we be friends?


    The be all and end all of this is we would like to get people to adhere to the rules, but we know thats not gonna happen 100%, people still don't send merge requests or don't know how to do them, people don't read the board stickies or even realise they are there, people don't post queries in the right place, or put comps in the right board.

    Its a huge undertaking getting people to conform to using a specific end date, there is no doubt about it and it will be a long process and not everyone will do this, but we will have to make sure its pointed out in a polite manner and hopefully we can get the board running smoothly

    I've found the last few months on here completely disheartening (and I'd be the same if I wasn't a board guide) what with all the squabbles and people wanting to change the way the board is run.


    I've said it before and I'll say it again, this board should be fun a place to come and enter comps and chat to like minded people, if you don't like it then there is other places to go, maybe they will be more accommodating in what you want


    Sorry if that sounded crabby, but its been a long week for me, I'm tired and fed up of all the narkiness on here and I feel sorry for divadee seeing her board going this way



    kips :)

    Just this weekend i thought to myself why is it i don't post in the MSE comps anymore, today i've been reminded, i used to love it here :confused:
