Hi all.  I have been reading this mag for a while now, but being in Australia we dont get the issue untill the next month.  (currently waiting for the April 08 issue to hit stores).  There have been quite a few competitions that I would have loved to have entered including the monthly missions, only to read on and find out the deadline has already passed.  So I have been jumping online to see if they have the missions online.  But the one currently displayed had its end date at start of April.  Is there somewhere on this site where the competitions are updated so the readers from overseas can have a chance to enter?  If I subscribe will the magazine get here in time for me to enter?  I have been reading on the forums that there have been issues with people missing out on their issues, how big a problem is?  Thanks for any advice.

Hi Ingi,

In a word "Yes".

The mission this month comp's are online here:

http://www.dcmag.co.uk/Your_misson_this_month.YbvqDmloY2fRyg.html

This is updated each time a new mag is issued, it's on the home page in the "About the Magazine section at the top left of the page, usually 4th line down - Mission this month. It should give you time to enter most months, however I notice that this link is currently showing a deadline for "Car's" as the 4th April, hopefully JD will soon spot this and amend it (Cough, Cough) and possibly even keep it up to date - you never know your luck!

As for the Subscription turning up in time, given that the distribution company have trouble getting the mag out to the UK on time, don't hold your breath!

Cheers, Peter.

Thanks Peter.  I thought I must have been looking at the wrong spot as it has had the mission for Cars for a while now.  I will just wait for now, hopefully one day (fingers crossed), I will be in time for one of the missions.....Cheers Ingrid

Weyhay! Result !!

I live in South Africa and subscribe to the mag - usually when the email from DC comes to say the new issue is out - I know I can go to my post box (they do not deliver in the bush) and the mag is usually there.

On a few occoasions that my mag has not arrived - I send an email to the mag subscription people and a replacement arrives with no problem.

I have still to pluck up the courage to enter the monthly competitions but understand that as the mag is UK based eg  their spring competions hit us when it is autumn with us so you may have to look in your archived pics to enter.

Hope this helps  -

Ann
