Pippin, have you noticed that the 'comps ending today' and 'comps ending soon' are updated throughout the day? If you check in the morning there may be nothing, but check later in the day and some more may have been added. You've probably already spotted this but thought I'd mention it just in case. It's the only thing I can think of that may be making the difference. I'm happy languishing in (currently) 60th place. I too got a little carried away with the ladder when it first started but I've come to the conclusion that life's just too short to stress about it and I've gone back to only entering comps with closing dates of up to a month ahead. I'm currently sat in a cottage in Scotland with husband and dog after winning £400 Sykes Cottage vouchers so I must be doing something right!

'Kevin'. I suppose a last minute competition might be added to 'competitions ending today' and then slip under my radar. Like you say, that's the only explanation. I love your philosophy. And congratulations on your prize win - I love hearing about people's wins. I won two short breaks in this country last year but still I'm waiting for my next.

Well, Pippin, I must be slipping under the radar with you! I have clicked on all the comps I've seen too and we have the same number of points. My sister is only 4 points behind me and we know which comp she missed. Perhaps rolysb is getting points from another one of the various ways that you can boost points.

Hi Pippin, how you doin'? Who says ''they are supposedly unobtainable at the moment?''
How do I earn points?
Well, there are a few ways, and more to come but generally by using Competitors Companion and clicking on things. We're not going to tell you all the ways to earn points but an example is by entering competitions we list.

have just kept a note of what I have entered I was on 616 points and entered 20 of the latest comps but my points have only gone up to 776 which has only increased by 60 as a full member and the points being 4 per comp my points should have gone up by 80 to a total 796 or am I missing something

The 2nd of the month and the scramble to the top of the ladder has begun again. I've told myself I'm not joining in this time. So why am I checking it so regularly? It's only a matter of time before Roysb, Pufferfish and The Mole are challenged for the top spot I'm sure, but I really wish I could beat the addiction.

Hi Deborah. This Ladder is a strange phenomenon. The points gained have no value. The points do not lead to bonuses. The gaining of points is unavoidable; clicking on a comp link automatically awards four points. In fact the points are the nonentity of Competitors Companion. As recorded elsewhere, there are a number of ways to gain points (if that is what one wants to do) - but whether all of those 'ways' have been activated is unsubstantiated.

Even though I'm a competitive person, I've stopped letting the ladder get to me. I enter every single competition and, like you say roly, points are then added automatically. I end up literally hundreds of points behind you and certain others so there's obviously other ways to amass points, which I haven't discovered. The treasure hunt is beyond me so if that's how you're getting your extra points, so be it. Happy comping, roly.

The treasure hunt doesn't give points, only entering comps does.
A small bug was fixed over the weekend where people could get extra points.
I'm just in the middle of making a comp/game where you can spend coins on opening boxes to try and win things!!!

It's not ready until it's listed in our comps so spend yor coins at your peril!!!!

True, we have no way of knowing what happens when you visit the sites we link to, though this is a competition portal site, I would presume the reason for clicking the links is to enter competitions?
