Pity there is not a challenge to click on 1000 pages of Topcashback looking for the damned hummingbird. I would have smashed that one this week.

2020 January Challenge

At the moment most of my comp numbers are larger than they will be for an average month later in the year, because I spent the first few days of January doing a huge catch up entering all the comps that had started in December (or even some near the end of November) that I hadn’t entered yet as I’d been busy with the advents.
After I posted earlier, I added the following to my original challenge post:
Daily magazine entries 1000+ (1000 completed 11th Jan but still continuing to do them)
Daily magazine competitions 97/1000
RC entries (entries unlimited but counting limit 1 per day per comp) 83/1000
RC competitions 28/1000
Gleam entries (entries unlimited but counting limit 1 per day per comp) 296/1000
Gleam competitions 76/1000I will stop counting once I hit 1000 on any of the different types of comps.
Folks were shocked at 9 x 1000 comps, now you are whinging they are too easy and you've got them done already
Some of them will last months (probably never be completed) for me :eek:
So 9 x 10,000 next year folks? :rotfl:
I’ll not sure I’ll even reach 1000 on some doing it this way, but at least it might spur me on to do a few more than usual!Magazine, gleam and RC I've split into two categories daily and once. The way things are going the daily will be done in months but the once will take the whole year. Once I've reached a 1000 if I've not had a win then I'll stop entering the GL/RC on a daily basis because like the C2Ws I feel I'm at a disadvantage when it comes to GL/RC as I don't do social media so I usually only have 1 or 2 entry methods out of a possible 10. I just keep telling myself it only takes one entry to win. Its hard to keep entering using a certain method when you don't win.
Just took a quick peak at your challenge list and looks like we’re doing something similar to each other0 -

What are you all doing when you get to 1000? Stopping counting (but still entering)? (Or stop entering as well, for some you don’t do regularly like the c2w?) Or continuing to count all year regardless?
I'm going to carry on counting, but only because I spent so long setting up my spreadsheet :rotfl: and I'm actually curious how many of each I can manage to enter.
However, I'm focusing on one at a time atm, so I've been doing Mag Dailies as priority, then GL/RC/TW etc with any remaining time each day, so I'll be prioritising different entry methods as I achieve the 1,000 entries if that makes sense?0 -
I reckon the nutters would still join (They would miss the craic) :rotfl:
Its certainly making comping a bit more entertaining this year :rotfl:
Had a bit of a disappointing week this week - discovered a WEM in my junk folder from December, for a tablet from MakeUseof, tried emailing them just in case but unfortunately they had already picked another winner
Had my first win of 2019 with 20p from the humming birds, so that my prize under £1 ticked off at least
Just hope I manage another win in January for my January win - if I don't are we allowed to switch challenges?0 -
I have won 2 cash amounts this evening :eek:
£18.30 from Buzz Bingo
(I have never paid any money into this site)
I am going to count this one as my January win :T
£25 from a Raffle page I do, but I paid £2 for 4 numbers @50p each
(not sure of the MSE spend limit these days, but I can only claim 1 win per day anyway)

The hope for this years challenge was to get folks to do comps they wouldn't normally do
Tis awful to find a win you have missed
It wasn't meant to be, bigger and better things will be waiting for you
Grrr that Bird :eek:
NO!!! Cheeky bugga you can't change challenges once you have filled it in (we are far from cheating yet )“I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.” - Billy Joel

I hope so! I was a bit gutted - I only found out about it because I joined Competition Database thinking it would be good for the 1,000 comps, and I searched for my name on the winners list.
It came up with my first name and first letter of my surname, so I went looking for emails in case it was me - you know my first name is a distinctive spelling so hoped it would be - and found the email But it was from 3rd December so I was too late
Never mind, I"m hoping that your right and a bigger and better win is coming I'm entering loads of different types this year for the challenge, so maybe I'll get luckyNO!!! Cheeky bugga you can't change challenges once you have filled it in (we are far from cheating yet )
Aww! You're mean
Fine! I shall go off in a strop and enter loads of random comps ending soon in the hope of a January win, if I win some really obscure prize I'm blaming you0 -
