(Just a bit of fun) I've come up with 3 types of competition people - Clancy, Percy & George.
I started thinking about this after Lisa Duffy won the Mini Cooper prize on Win4now but couldn't drive yet & reading our winners comments where we have lots of generous Georges!
1. Compaholic Clancy
Loves competitions & freebies! Enters everything possible, no matter what the prize is. Totally addicted and spends hours entering everything - some of the fun is lost as Clancy takes comping very seriously and measures fun with winning success rates.
Sites where Clancy's roams - Discount voucher sites & competition forums.
2. Precise Percy
Only enters competitions they really want to win. Doesn't see the point in entering to win something that they don't need / already have. This type might even think that it is a waste if they won when someone else (a stranger to them) might really love the prize and have more use of it. i.e win a wet suit, when Percy doesn't swim.
Sites where Percy's roams - Competition sections of niche websites & most website's special 'win' pages
3. Generous George
Combination of Clancy & Percy. George doesn't enter as many competitions as Clancy but more than Percy. When entering a competition, George has already decided who that the prize would go to 'x y z' friend/family member.They really enjoy comping, are very grateful when winning and does it all for fun.

So which competition type are you? Or are you a Mysterious Marvin type 4?
I'm off on holiday now for a week climbing in sunny France, so no more blog entries until after May 12th - be sure to come back then.
