    I think it was something which was agreed between the forum and BGs because it was getting a bit mixed up when comps ending lists were posted early. Maybe someone thats been comping longer than me can clear it up though.

    As far as I know they agreed the lists could stay on the condition that people stuck to the rules.... so something obviously needs to be sorted whatever happens.

    Do you mean.. having the 8th and 9th August lists running at the same time?

    Only problem I can see with that is.. if you want to fill them all out and you haven't done so by the time the next comps ending list comes out.. it's a bit of a pain.

    I like the comps ending lists, I think they are important to many people for example, who can't comp as much as some and still want to enter but do it once an evening :)

    I do most my comping on an evening and spend less time now than I did with comps ending, esp when it gets to the end of the month I won't go into that though because I know we all have our own ways of comping so what I find best other people might not.

    Maybe there should be a sticky stating the rules of the comps ending lists?
    Thanks to everyone that posts :T:money:

    I think the BGs were getting a lot of stick for it when the rules wern't set in place, so the lists were causing even more havoc than they are now. I wasn't comping when all this happened though so don't quote me on that :D

    It shouldn't really matter if the comp ending lists go as people can still spend the same amount of time comping as they did before so not sure why there is so much fuss about it :confused:

    I think some people just want it all done for them, someone to find the comp, someone to post the answer, someone to put in into a comp ending list and I am surprised they haven't asked for there to be someone who takes names and addresses to enter for them

    Hehe, there is some website out there that does all that.
    You pay them and they put you in all the competitions for you.
    And you just sit back and wait for the prizes.

    Maybe we should start paying the comp list people.:rotfl:

    ... not forgetting waiting in for the postie or delivery man whilst they are out at work!!!!

    As for wiping bums as well..... i don't need one of them as it's a rarity if I ever "go" ..... I wouldn't say "no" to a lick as opposed to a wipe though :D
