It may have been a shade nitty, I agree. I do a lot of these Next Door, (for free tourney entries) but always on football matches, where the time is needed, as the scores are more predictable, and we generally get around 100 entries, so it's effectively a tie breaker. Next time I will be more generous. Not much, mind. Title: Re: Free to Enter Competition - £50 to the winner.
