    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.

    How you look at a situation is very important, for how you think about a problem may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. When you get discouraged or depressed, try changing your attitude from negative to positive and see how life can change for you. Remember, your attitude toward a situation can help you to change it -- you create the very atmosphere for defeat or victory.”

    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.
