    Do you think if we asked them what the duration of the effected time period was they'd tell us so we could figure out if any of the wins over saturday/sunday are going to get camera's?

    Hi guys,

    Know how on Saturday it went broke from 1pm-12am (everyone was winning). But then from 12am-8am on the Sunday it seemed to be ok and I 'won' during this period at around 3am. I emailed them with my code to ask if it was genuine as it appeared to be fixed at this time but I wasn't sure. They replied:

    Thank you very much for your email.

    They did not specify the affected time period though but it does say that some people DID win on 28th/29th so I guess I'll just have to wait and see if a camera turns up lol! And it says you don't get your confirmation emails til after the comp finishes. Good luck to all. x

    the original comment i made was a question
    and i dont think it was totyally uinfair
    why are you entering for more cameras if you have won three already? don't you think it's a tad selfish?

    now in my eyes that isnt that bad
    tad means a little so generally it wasnt as bad as you make out.

    'm sorry but in my eyes and obviously quite a few people here that is an ignorant question and none of your business, why do you care what or why Julie wants to win?

    At the end of the day i see you donr pretty well out of virign vouchers i guess thats a click comp

    i dont have any issues with people winning away and i;'m not jealous at all
    i find myself quite lucky actually

    the only issue i have is this being such a time consuming competition and i see people are addicted to it and click for hours on end:confused::confused:

    If people want to who are you to bully them into stopping?

    fair play to those that enjoy doing it (i certainly dont)
    my life/ time/family is more important than clicking away all day for a camera

    Then why even bother posting on this thread?
    We all enter for things we want, we spend time doing what we want, priorities are different for everyone.

    The posts by yourself on this thread aimed at Julie do amount to bullying whether you think so or not.

    Hey Josie - I don't think the things that ginjim are saying are THAT bad.

    I think in essence he's just asking wouldn't it be a nice thing to just win a couple of prizes and give others a chance - BUT maybe julie is going to give her SWAG to friends/family anyways....

    I think ginjim's questions are OK to be fair - and a lot nicer than some of the stuff I've seen on these boards.....

    Well, no further news on whether I'll get my camera - I guess it will be a happy surprise if it does turn up (I've promised it to OH anyway!) :)

    As for the arguing - what does it matter how many times people click and win? I've stopped playing, so does that mean someone else can click twice as much now (if that's possible ;) )

    The thing about comping is that it's about LUCK so as long as you're all acting within the T&Cs GOOD LUCK to you all no matter if you have one click a day or 1000. If people think it's 'greedy', then that's silly!

    Let's all get on - the positive spirit of the comps board in particular is why I love coming here :)

    They certainly could have been phrased better

    I think in essence he's just asking wouldn't it be a nice thing to just win a couple of prizes and give others a chance - BUT maybe julie is going to give her SWAG to friends/family anyways....

    Exactly no-one know what the motives are for anyone entering competitions

    I think ginjim's questions are OK to be fair - and a lot nicer than some of the stuff I've seen on these boards.....

    But who made him judge and jury?

    I think Julie can answer for herself, but I don't like to see anyone pushed into a corner and made a spectacle of.

    Perhaps people will just stop reporting their wins - I know the same thing happened in the Fanta Wii room comp & Virgin comp to name a couple, because the same persecution happened, its human nature unfortunately, and until the promoters put a 'one win' clause into the T&C's then it will continue to happen.

    If I was lucky enough to win one, I would stop, but ONLY for the sake of my sanity because it is so boring.

    Anyone who has the luck to win more than one, well done to you :beer:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
