    Seems to me they just don't know what they want! I just hope they don't pick one they've already received and not give it credit. Not that they'd do that - would they?!
    Thank you to everyone who posts comps! :A
    I would like to be lucky,healthy & happy in 2020! :T
  • I submitted more than one entry for the Name the Planet comp. Did anyone else do that? What if they choose a name which has been submitted by more than one person? Do you think they will split the prize three-ways or just let one person have it all? I don't think I'll win anyway - but the comp rules are quite vague.

    :mad: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: The competition finishing date has been made open ended to allow as many of our worldwide readers to enter the competition! Keep sending through your entries for the "Name The Lost Planet" competition

    :mad: :mad: THAT MEANS IT COULD GO ON FOREVER then he'd never have to pay out the 10,000 grand :mad: what the heck are they playing at . wonder if this is against the law for him to do it like this.
    '
    The new name was going to be in next book quote 'the name will be used in all future books in the series!!'
    so he must have an idea when thats due to be published something very dodgy going on i think . perhaps he didn't sell enough books to give out the prize money

    How can you have a competition with an open ended date?! It's not really a competition then is it! That site is a crock.

    I've found this site http://www.out-law.com/page-6780 that explains the legal issues of running a competition, but it still seems a bit vague with regards to end dates.:confused:
