I have decided to set up a thread for GAD queries - anything GAD related, whether it be what is the best way to win one, lost claim, bragging about how many you have won (come on pb and Emmie...you are too modest on here :p), or just to praise winners and thank the staff for their awards.
It may save the staff the hassle of having to trawl through the other threads looking for queries (although we now have the option to e-mail them) and possibly the talk of winners talking about GAD wins may encourage others to attempt for them.
Hopefully this thread will take off....and congratulations to all the winners so far!

Pfff don't be interfering with my babies!
Just an odd week this week. The cheats and content was heavy again so I delayed the award until today.
And yesterday, if I am not in I normally recommend the reviews etc to Motomoto. As he was off too..... Still plenty of time today.

Just noticed this,thanks guys !.Been on here a couple of times this afternoon and hadn't noticed.This means my GAD total for 2009 (which is highly unlikely to change) now stands at a mighty 2 ! :D
Seriously,thank you so much (presume Warhunt ?).Had a mega crap week (seriously) but this has well cheered me up.Am I allowed to request Left 4 Dead 2 for the 360 ?,think its out next week ?.If not its the week after,if thats the case can I wait until next week and then request it ? (did any of that actually make sense ? :S).
Right,going to go now before I deliver a blubbering acceptance speech that would make Gwyneth Paltrow cringe !.

yep, congrats. I'm still writing a few reviews and getting as many things off my chest as possible.
Win a few vouchers for christmas and maybe get myself a copy of ME2 when it comes out.
Just can't wait for MW2 though. Hopefully it'll be good.

Right. Any sign that the MW2 games have been ordered? Yesterday was the last day for the free courier delivery in time for tomorrow's release, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Well pre-ordering up to Sunday 8th was supposed to guarantee it due to it being delivered by Courier.

Well my copy of MW2 has arrived but because its a pc game and it uses steam. I can't play it until tomorrow. So i'll spend the time staring at the box, watching cookery shows (My japanese kitchen on NHK is awesome) and maybe think about writing one more review.
I'll probably submit the whole lot of reviews in late november. I sense theres going to be a barrage of reviews for MW2 soonish.
Having had a quick peak inside the box, i have to say, the manual isn't good. 8 pages long.
What annoys me more is that i can't even preinstall it until tomorrow. Then i won't be able to play it until wednesday probably. Bah.

Just so you know Emmie you will receive another notification of a Award win. This is not true, it's a duplicate from your win last week. We had to do some tweaking system side. So ignore this one :D
Today's winner to be announced in minutes.

my woe continues! trying to install the game is proving a pain. As i have to go onto steam and get the download started. Damn it! why won't you install?!
thats odd. The first time i tried installing it, it tried downloading online. After i shoved the cd in again and attempt a reinstall its installing from cd...
Hmm... James may at 8, installing game, haruhi right now...
Hmmm...
Oh and reviews coming soon.

Reckon L4D2 will be the best bet.

Fireworks fiasco. Quick update on my step brother.. He has regained (roughly) 4% vision in the majorly effected eye, near 95% in the other.
In other news, the Christmas Quiz is coming soon. Well at Christmas......
So I'm opening the floor to suggestions for section titles and ideas again. Going to try and do some nice stuff this time. A movie clip section maybe? Or even "What's that sound...."

Games i am really wanting to take a look at;
Assassins Creed 2
L4D2
Dragonball Z Raging Blast
New GTA would be worth playing
Dragon Origins (just to see what warhunt is making fuss about lol)
But with MW2 then i really don't need any of them yet!

Ok so today's winner has been picked. Congrats to cjh with his mighty return to form on the technical forums. Wouldn't mind seeing a bit more from him on the forums!
Important Notice
Tuesdays content submissons were sadly lacking. And as such it was impossible to justify a winner. No one submitted anything of quantity or quality, with just one person possible winning with just 17 cheats. However they are not eligible for the win as they don't have a full address in their account!!
So....
A new idea. I will give "contestants" 1 weekend, up to Sunday at midnight to submit a preview/description/article of one of these eagerly anticipated titles.
Assassin's Creed 2
Left 4 Dead 2
Mass Effect 2
Bioshock 2
Dead Rising 2
A simple head-to-head who does the best job number. Submitting achievements and content for the specific game will also count towards your "chance" of winning.
The winner of this one off compo will be announced Monday, with regular Award schedules following from Tuesday.
