I hope it hasen't been pulled, I thought it was a great idea.

You learn a lot while you are leafing though books triing to find different photos.

I lost it a while before 16.53 last night when I posted a 'Where it it?' (Post #31183).
Had lots of probs getting connected to Exploroz too, even this AM.
Guess David will be on deck shortly to sort it all out. Hope so anyway!
This Comp is becomming addictive!

I hazard a guess that people are possibly better travelled than EO had banked on, and are cleaning them out of merchanise at a great rate of knots ;)

I agree - I think it's a great idea.... prizes aren't required (unless they are supplied by external sponsors).

No it is not missing - I have just run out of photos in the current round and need to add some more today. Will be doing this shortly and the comp will re-appear.

Glad some people like the comp - I am still debating the turn back on based on post 31176.

Yeah I read that post, And yes I agree with some of what was said, It can be frustrating knowing what the answer is (I also picked well 22) but being unable to get the words around the right way.

But having said that it is possible to win as the several previous winners have prooved.

I think it's a great competition and it will be a pity to let a few disgruntled people spoil it for the majority.

I too have been caught in the know the answer but still getting it wrong and as frustrating as it can be love the competition more!!

Steve and I now have a greater list of places to visit, and have had many "Did you know...." and "Have you seen..." moments!!

Keep the comp going, we miss it!!!!

Hi David

I am rapt with the comp. I recognised Cape Leveque straight away as it is such a magic place to visit. Had no idea about any of the others as I havent been there, but hey isnt that the point of the comp? Now when we do go I can say I have seen this place before on EO!!! It is the first time I have ever won anything!! Looking forward to my stubbie holders!!

I think you are doing a great job and by the look of it, most would agree and encourage you in the job you are doing.

What competition???
lots of messages re some picture guessing competition but I have yet to acually see a picture. Where are they hiding or is this some 'members only' game?

It would be nice to have a subject line like " Picture competition # x" and everybody could have a look what's it about if they wish.
Unfortunately I do not have the time to read every post here so its the subject lines that attract my interest and decision wether or not look at that particular post.

Thanks David, I consider myself informed now.
Its just that anything 'flashing' on the screen does not attract my attention, quite the opposite in fact.
