I'd like to know how they give the three different methods of entry an equal chance of winning. Having said that, the Express Big Monday £1,000 crossword did something similar last year, where they coloured in some of the squares, the letters of which could then be arranged into a word. You could then just phone or text this word, or send the completed grid in. I continued to send the grid in as before.....and won! So it's possible, but I'd still like to know how they collate the entries.
