    If that is the problem then why are other threads that date back several months still in the Competitions Time forum which consists of some 150 odd pages? The threads that expire tomorrow only account for about 5 pages in Game Over so removing them prematurely doesn't declutter Competitions Time much at all.

    Some people have been bumping these comps ending soon by saying thanks etc and that has annoyed some people (not me - as I have mine in order of thread start date)... so having them bumped in Game Over is not so much of a problem... as the bumped posts were cluttering up all new comps that were listed.... (this was not the reason for doing it though..), it was because BG's do have a life and an explanation was given for it....

    Bumping is not a problem just select sort order by thread start time.

    Why are threads moved to the Game Over forum before they have reached their end date? For example, today (29 April) there are many threads already in Game Over even though they have an end date of 30/04.

    :hello:


    Just to let you all know that I am doing the Game Overs up to and INCLUDING tomorrows as I am rather busy this week and won't be spending too much time on here, you can still enter tomorrows comps from the comps ending thread even though they will be in Game Over

    Hi - not sure if this is the correct place and its probably a stupid question but can I do a search to find all the posts I have thanked during a certain period.....????

    Basically want to count number of comps entered and thought that might be easiest way to do it.......

    Thanks in advance for any help! Kx

    Hi

    you cant actually search by posted that you have thanked, only ones that you have been thanked for

    Probably the best way to see how many comps you enter is to tally them up as you enter them but personally I dont bother as would take up time that could be spend entering more comps:D
