TWINE Multiple PS2 & Dreamcast Cheats



This is getting ridiculous now.

We were told a good review would beat a discussion or a cheat. So why do the cheats keep winning? There have been PLENTY of superb reviews happening. This is crazy.

Who's with me?

Ban cheats from winning GAD, make a NEW competition.

By the way - no one has replied to my posts about the GBA - do I get a mains adaptor or not? This service is deteriorating. Diseconomies of scale.....
Also, why don't multiple reviews count? More cheats, more likely to win - I today have posted loads of massive, informative reviews of peripherals, so should they not stand a chance?

Is SR declining from rewarding reviews (remember: a good review will beat all else) because they think they've been copied? Well lets face it, you can usually tell when a review has been copied, but the thing is, cheats are more likely to have been taken from other sources than reviews. And they're being rewarded for it.

Also - On my stats it claims there hvae been NO cheats submitted by me. Just not right - I even found a flaw in the Track and Field Game for the PS2 which can be described as a cheat - last level of world circuit, the arrows thing - just press all arrows in time to get the full 10/10. I submitted it. Why?

Who knows. It wasn't accepted?

Grrrrrrr

Cheats don't deserve to win GAD, they hardly put as much effort as SR posts or reviews.

Erm yeah right, a lot of us can post well!!!! But yes, it was a great post, like some of ours - and then a cheat goes and wins a game for it. It's not on.

No, no keep them!

What if you lot run out of money to get new games and you have reviewed all of your games, and cant think of anything that could win GAD, what are you gonna do at least there will always be another option...add some cheats.

And it doesnt matter if the cheats win, that poster must of spent at least an hour adding all those cheats if he entered enough to win and they must have all worked and been decent cheats that had been weel rated. Sometimes it is very tedious and can get boring and it can be hard work finding new cheats.

I say KEEP THE CHEATS WINNING GAD!
