"NEW SITE FEATURES COMP - WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT"

HERE ARE THE RESULTS OF THIS COMPETITION. I have read ALL the entries!

A lot of entries mentioned things which have generally been discussed before or are in the pipeline. They include:
User Profiles
Polls
Walkthroughs and Game Guides
Highest Scores
Who is currently posting
Splash Plastic (which is too expensive for us to do)
Online Reddies
Logos and Ringtones (see UKphonetones.com)
Genre search for games
Tell a Friend.

It just goes to show how busy we are that we are unable to get many of the above into place. But hey, expenditure is controlled by income (hint).

I liked Darkness' idea about tutorials, and Mantis made the suggestion to have a "Gamesmaster" of the forums based on competitions for high scores.

Cookie Monster wants people to be able to promote their website (we already offer this for Freeola customers) and he also suggests that we have an office pet which is monitored with a web cam (brilliant).

Monkey_with_Attitude suggests a "most played games of the week" counter on UKgames.com.

Freak of the Dark says our logo should "move or something".

Turbonutter reckons we should run Flash games and this is supported by Shaneo who says we should run SR Arena and give prizes to the best players. Turbonutter also tells us that we are lacking on PC game specification of the type you find on the back of the box and Swish extends this to a link under each title.

CDouch is a "man of a thousand ideas", mostly on the button too. He lists: Information on gaming from around the world, more mini sites like UKgt3, kids corner, celebrity visits and better organised release info including more information on unreleased games (to name but a few of his suggestions).

The rules (written by Kendozod) state "exciting and would attract a lot of visitors".

THE WINNERS ARE:
CDouch for MORE INFORMATION ON UNRELEASED GAMES.
Turbonutter for FLASH GAMES.


Many thanks for all of your participation and, for the time being, I promise not to confuse the issue by holding any other similar competition.

Below are the original rules written by Kendozod

New Site Features.

Tony has let me loose to post a new and exciting competition!
So here goes:

This competition is for all of you to think up new features for our websites. We already have cheats, clips, demos, discussions etc but are there other features you would like us to add?

The aim here is for the feature to be low admin maintenance and low in cost (obviously!) but be exciting and would attract lots of visitors.

They can be fun, educational, business, reference, silly, cool - anything as long as they NOT sexual or violent in nature.

This competition is open for 1 month and the best ideas that we USE will win a game as part of GAMEADAY. If no ideas are used then I will pick 1 winner that I deem the best.

CLOSING DATE: 8th July 2001

So get thinking and posting. Remember, your suggestions could make a difference!

Has this compo finished yet??

Or does it finish at 12am???

auctions.
selling limited edition games etc

There could be a bit where we can send in pictures that we have drawn of computer games and stuff and then the best one every week wins a game

There could be a bit where we can send in pictures that we have drawn of gomputer games and stuff and then the best one every week wins a gameaday

a count down clock saying how many months, weeks, days , hours , minuites , seconds there are left untill a cometition closes or a game is released

Well i am new hear so I can give a newbies objective opinion:

Hmm.how could SR be improved?

Hmmm

Ahh I know.

How about rewarding users for writing reviews on games. I know that you currently rin gameaday, but that seem s fairly remote. Maybe a loyalty scheme where you get points for writing and viewing other ppls reviews.

Just a thought.

Ciao for now


Dolphins have got style, no doubt about it

3D pics of games machines which you can go inside and find out whats in there and how it works.
ive seen something a bit like this done using quick time.
you could click on parts and it will have a close up and info on it.

i spose we could just take our consoles apart.

a recosorce centre like a libary kinda thing.
people can find out about games, consoles movies etc.
read news articles past and present.
find out about the company and staff.
find out more about each other etc
