Re: Star Shaker for January - 3 years ago
Probably just a busy week, if you see you are a winner and don't hear from us (you should), use the contact us link at the bottom of every page.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Re: Replying to a new topic - 3 years ago
i've emailed Harriet about this. \xF0\x9F\x98\x8C is a emoticon from the utf8mb4 character set, the database as it is doesn't support this. I am re writing the forum and once done it will support emoticons. As soon as it's reay I'll redirect the forum to the new code.by ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: Alert for new comments - 3 years ago
I'm just in the middle of re writing the forum software so that's possible. What sort of notification would you want?by ukinet - Suggestions
Re: Leader Board - 4 years ago
Just to explain. You'll only get points if you enter a competition that was added since the last ladder reset. This is done so someone can't just enter a load of competitions and fly to the top, it's to make it fair for everyone.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Re: Open & log - 5 years ago
This is an issue we always have to fight with. The latest Chrome update has forced us to make some changes. From the competition page you can open and log, the competition will open in a new page but the competition page will no longer return you to the list, you'll need to use the back button. Open and log from the longer lists should work fine as that doesn't reload the page, rby ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: strike through - 5 years ago
You can set the option in your profile page. And it should remember your settings, I'll take a look see if I can see what's going on.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Yeah, that slipped my mind, I'll fix it this week some time.by ukinet - Suggestions
Re: Comp Log not working - 5 years ago
It was not working properly for a few hours during some upgrades, it should have been back to normal shortly after you contacted us.by ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: Daily Quiz - January - 5 years ago
They appear on the '#Ours' page, under recent winners, we will be making use of this for more comps soon, it seems to work for what I'm testing it on.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Persistent login test? - 5 years ago
Does anyone with a level 2 account want to test persistent logins? Your browser will stay logged in until you click logout regardless of closing the browser. If anyone logs in on multiple devices that would be nice too. Thanks.by ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: Nuisance calls after entering a comp - 5 years ago
I get a few spam calls like this. A fun way to handler it is just keep them on the line agreeing with everything they say, or just put the phone close to you and keep humming and ahhing to waste their time. Or just go along with it never actually doing anything they say, just pretend you are. You can also register your number with tpsonline.org.uk but if they're outside the UK then itby ukinet - Off Topic Forum

This is true, also, in your profile you can select what to do with logged competitions, hide them or strike them. If they're hidden you'll only find them in thby ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: Daily Quiz - January - 5 years ago
You can now find the answers to the previous months daily quiz on the 'ours' competition page. It still needs some work and to be updated but hopefully this helps out.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Re: Daily Quiz - January - 5 years ago
I'm in the process of making a list of 'Our comp' winners on the 'Ours' page, you might have seen it. It'll list the information discussed here along with the other competitions and winners nickname (if they've agreed). Hopefully this week sometime we'll see something on that list.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Tell me what the problem is, and how you'd prefer it to be? Sorry for not understanding, I personally don't enter the competitions. Thanks.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Re: Complog. - 5 years ago
Hello, I'm in the process of giving you the choice of whether to hide or strike the entered competitions, I've had it in testing for a month or so and it seems to work OK, you'll see an option in you profile soon. I've also got a fix for being able to enter and log at the same time on Apple devices, that will roll out at the same time.by ukinet - General Competition Chat
Re: Using the CC email - 5 years ago
There are plenty of people using it. It's an attempt to shield you from getting spam in your inbox, I may try and make it better but as it is it serves it's purpose even if it's not brilliant. Using another account like gmail is an option also, and with the GDPR laws that cam ein you should technically get less spam anyhow.by ukinet - General Competition Chat

Todays downtime - 5 years ago
Sigh, what a day! So at 3am our provider had some issues with some network bits, and that's about all they've told us, even now at almost 11pm they haven't fixed it. At around midday I decided to bite the bullet and move the servers to Amazon and I'm almost done, still have a few issues to sort out but I can't do that for another few hours.

Re: Layout of Pages - 5 years ago
Nothing with the layout has been changed, there has been slight additions. Although some back end files we're changed and I had someone who's browser cache wasn't updating properly but that wouldn't cause things to look 'stark', you could try pressing shift and refreshing the page to force your browser to update and see if it changes. Otherwise please use the cby ukinet - General Competition Chat
