Now that the Sunday Telegraph does two identical blank grids for the cryptic and GK crosswords - can you enter two GK or two cryptic completed grids to better your chances of winning?

I think you mean one grid to force you to choose to do either the cryptic or the GK, arc. I was mad as hell when they started that a few weeks ago. I buy the paper on my way to the pub, so how am I going to get the grid photocopied to be able to enjoy both crosswords? I had it in mind to write to the ST telling them what I thought, reasoning that I'd not be the only one, but as always, these things go off you and I never did!
They have changed the format and gone back to the original two grids.One cryptic,one GK as from last Sunday.If you want to enter more than once you will have to buy extra copies of the paper as they don't acept photocopies.
Does no-one read the question?! He means entering TWO gen knowledge OR TWO cryptics, from the same paper, no photocopying involved. Good grief... don't know thane answer though - ask the DT?
Well they go to different box numbers anyway so I can't see that it would be feasible.In the remote chance that one was picked they would see by the address box that you had filled out two of the same and it would be void.

Thank you, Quizmonkey - I was about to comment the same. No wonder so many questions are repeated - people don't read the question correctly!

The name and address (and email) box on both grids do not make reference to the competition entered therefore you can enter the same comp on both grids unless one is daft enough to write the wrong address on the envelope. I doubt that the envelopes are all opened and sealed envelopes are picked and opened until the winner(s) are found so unless out of the thousands of entries received I doubt that anyone would know you entered more than once. 

I hang my head in shame and promise to read all questions thoroughly in future!
