I never win. Except that one time for a story. Which needs a sequel.

Totally untruthful and wrong. Take my example. One of the most hated members of SR (and maybe still) - but I've won 6 times. That's obviously not because I'm Mr Popular at SR (because I'm not), but is to do with what I submit.

The same people win because they know what SR want to see in an entry because they have been entering a while and always try to aim for that standard.

Walkthroughs will probably be most likely to win because I know I do and many others put lots of effort into them, which makes them stand a very good chance on that day. If you read 'How to Win' found on the Gameaday website you will see that even there it says walkthroughs are most likely to win if they are of a high standard.
"Another great way to win a Gameaday prize is to submit your own game guide or walkthrough! If you've written your own detailed guide to your favourite game, then you're in with a very good chance of winning! You are more likely to win by posting a walkthrough than through any other means."

Oh I know. I do go there from time to time and Phil I live a couple of miles away, so I know - trust me. Just don't buy no marketstall CD's. :P
