I'm late on board with this EE competition. How does it work? Have they given any clues out or are we just choosing coordinates at random?

Think it's random (although I've chosen the stages as opposed to random camping areas)

 

any my update on thatchers?

No clues, it's a random draw within a random draw as far as we can tell. You get 3 entries a day, make sure to enter your coordinates in the form A1 (no space, that order) in reply to the EE tweet, with the hashtag glastonburied i.e. '@EE A1 #glastonburied'. Runs from midday to 9am the next day every day, winner announced around 11ish.

Still seen nothing despite trawling. No one claiming to have won, thatchers haven't replied to tweets asking about winners being drawn etc. Not sure why they'd delay, so might just be a case of people keeping it to themselves/not checking their phones + emails.

What a poor account to have drawn...

[emilyboris]

Anyway, there were 13 entries with L13. Don't know if anyone on here was one of them! Longer odds than yesterday.

My boyfriend got it correct again. This is so unfair!!!!!

But it was L8 wasn't it? I had L13 so was about to kick a big hole in a paper bag thinking I had it again. Sorry to hear of your double near miss Lucy92. Very upsetting. 

[Katir]

So folks. How to tackle the Bristol Post competition. I can't find it anywhere?

Yep my bad, poor brain function in the morning means I just ended up writing 13 twice. There were 13 entries for L8.

Go back in this thread! I know lots of people ask for the answer to be re-posted but I sort of feel like the more the answer is posted, the smaller each of our odds get....

Can you remember when the last date of entry is? Thanks

Just searched #Glastonburied and L8 on Twitter.  EE ran the same competition last year and L8 was one of the winning squares then as well.    Just Saying.

No worries. One minor coronary later and I'm ok. That's still not many entries for a prominent square.

Are you sure? They had L13 last year, couldn't find L8 anywhere.

When you get onto the website it says at the bottom-I want to say the 30th? I'm pretty sure it's the 30th.

Nope, none of them have loads of entries (apart from H15 yesterday because people weren't paying attention). Given there are about 235 squares to choose from though and no clues to point you in any direction, it's not overly surprising (entries number a few thousand)

The final #Glastonburied winning spot was L8 and the last lot of goods go to @twmscfc! We’re going to DM you shortly!

I tell a lie, it was indeed one of the ones from last year. It does look like it's the pyramid square (or basically so). It's pretty unlikely they'd randomly pick the same square in consecutive years (not impossible though), and the fact it's the pyramid square that's cropped up twice seems to tell that they're not really doing this randomly. Which is misleading

OMG are they doing the same places?

Nah, only this one. Seems reasonable they'd put the pyramid/a pyramid square in twice if they were predetermined, sp this suggests it's not a random pick of squares.
