"FOR THE WANT OF AN EXTRA GAD"

Feeling lonely and isolated?

Looking at stale old posts?

Nobody around to talk to?

Creative juices dried up?


You need new miracle Extra GAD. Extra GAD sweeps as it cleans as it enlivens.

The person with the best suggestion for an EXTRA GAD competition will win any game of their choice.

Closing date = midnight on August 26th.

And YES - the winning suggestion will be used as a real Extra GAD compo (er - just like this one).

So, by gad, get adding you cads. You are never too old to be bold!

**** IMPORTANT - EDITED POSTS DON'T COUNT ****

If two people suggest the same winning idea it will be the first one to post it that wins.

I think we need another UKCheats Bonanza. A whole year's worth of updates in the space of a month or so- that couldn't go wrong, right?

Preferably with the £100 prize offered last time. =D

Or. You could stop complaining and write decent reviews.

I think they should have more GAD cheat winners. All my cheats have been for the latest consoles, every cheat I have entered was for games not listed on the cheat menus( thats 65 games which I added on the cheat menu). Yet I remember Forrest Fan winning GAD for entering 300+ cheats for retro games which nobody plays anymore(I bet they were games already on the list). The fact is SR don't see this point and I have a question for them. What will it take for me to win GAD by entering cheats? will I have to enter 500 crappy little cheats for 1 game which nobody plays because it's to old? Or are you going to make it more fair by giving it to people who give people cheats on games you never had before and in turn making your data base of cheats looking much bigger. Fact - if it wearn't for me SR would still have 3 pages of x box cheats instead of 4.

This idea has been reposted with more details and No edits later in the thread


My idea:

A walkthrough for the forums. Maybe it could help all the nice JATs and newbies by getting to know all the users. Basically you take the whole list of posters, I think the top posters for the last 30 days would be best as these guys and gals are still around and write a little guide to them. Whether it be they eat newbies or adore them and what forums they hang out in etc. It would be nothing personal like "They like chips and pizza" because well.. it's the Internet. Just a little friendly guide to all the users.

And like all the Extra GADs you obviously won't want it to be too serious so the guides would try to be comical and slightly 'wacky' as it were. Also improving the atmosphere of the forums to new users, if they see a serious walkthrough / guide to the users they will think: boring. But seeing a funny one will make them want to stay because ukchatforums.com is a fun, friendly place..

Also this will guarantee good entries because it will take quite some time to write and so they will hopefully be of a high standard. And you may even want to use them, as for where you'll put them though, perhaps it could be an extra page on the top posters list or something.

And that is my idea.

Edit - a few spelling mistakes.

Create a cartoon strip or animaed gif which shows an estimated typical day at SR Towers.

Whether is be a short comic strip of Bob drinknig heavily again or just Tonty sitting in his uncomfortable chairspinning around and trying to guess which other small undiscovered town to build a shop into next by throwing a dart at a map of England.

Quickest way to raise page impressions EGAD.

Nope, wait, we've just done that one...

Pimp My Game

So you wanna be gamer?
But your games ain't fly
You gotta hit SR up to get a pimped out game

You got to pimp my game
Damn right
You got to pimp my game

Basically you take a current gaming character and pimp them out. So you could take Mario and turn him into more like 50 Cent.

Even better, the user has to go through every damn bit of stock you have and compile a list of competitors who sell the product cheaper, the more products they highlight the closer they get to the prize...

Bwahaha, are the staff so out of ideas we have to think up an EGAD idea as well?

Shocker.

Some crap about designing a game which involves a staff member.
