Ive won through email comps a few times

Might start entering a few more again, I've only been entering a few recently as it seemed like my entries were useless.

I think that e-mail entry puts a lot of people off, especially if they don't have POP3 e mail and have to go through the faff of opening up Hotmail, etc...

So less entrants = more chance of winning?

Been working my way through the comps today, and when entering the Diva Mag comps, i was getting them returned because the person who answers the competitions@divamag addy has left the magazine. So from now on comp entries should be sent to jane@millivres.co.uk instead...same subject etc. just to a different addy.

Hope it helps someone. Wasn't sure whether to post this here or bump all the comps seperately.

I would say that it is a valid reason to 'bump' each post as not everyone reads in here.

i'm going to once i find them all again, but there's been a fair bit of venom directed at anyone bumping comps recently and to be honest i didnt want to become the next victim of a tirade of abuse.

My email 'clicky' thing as never worked so I have to C&P everything into a fresh email & still no wins from it. Well I won a Disney aerial topper through a very small company a while ago but can't remember any others?

I can understand your reluctance but I think that the main annoyance with people bumping is when they bump just to say "thanks for posting".

It doesn't bother me as now I have caught up with comps I usually sort posts by start time, so I don't see the bumps anyway.

ARGH!!!! Just done my comps ending list, had just finished it and my laptop decides to break so I'm going to have to start it all over again on the desktop :mad:

I've never been annoyed at anyone who bumps to say something valid, and your posts are definitely valid! Anyone who gets annoyed at you is just grumpy xxx
