    unlimited entries question

    I was wondering, that on the unlimited entries, is it cheating or illegal to fill in entry form, hit submit, then hit the back browser and do this over and over again, or should you click out, and reclick back in. i feel like i am going to get DQ if i hit the back and forth method, can someone give me some advice. Thank you

    I enter on the premise that either way is acceptable unless prohibited by rules.  Many times you will receive a confirmation when going back and forth.

    Your entry count (on ST) will not be reflective of total entries by going back and forth.

    And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more. - Dr. Seuss

    May the Joy and the Meaning of the Christmas Season fill your hearts throughout the year.

    You can also hold down the Ctrl key and click on the sweep several times to open it up in separate windows.  Hope this works for you.  Good luck.

    Elliott, sometimes when you go Back to a form and resubmit it, you are just overlaying the original entry with the new one, so you haven't increased your entries. The page you start from sometimes makes a big difference. This is why some sweeps you click on to enter start right at the entry page and others you have to click links to get to the entry page. It's to make sure you really will get an entry for your effort.

     Of course, some sweeps you simply can't save the link to the entry page, and for those you also have to click from a page further back.

    I prefer entering from sweepstakestoday instead of a personal list because I know Mr. Softy checks the URL codings to see where we need to start from to make our entries viable.
