You people just post and post one liner topics or topics i've heard over and over again, what is wrong with you guys?
What a waste of time it get's boring after a while looking at how many posts that clone something that has been done before!

Meka in my topics I try to type and think of something completely original and yes in the last two topics somebody else has won, it didn't get me annoyed because they expressed their opinion very well....

I have taken ages writing my new topic so give it a read! :)

Well it looks like Sniper has just contradicted himself!

I have heard many times before about Sniper hating SR, how he never wins etc (him talking about repitition of topics).

Then the one line topics... how many lines are there in this topic?

Lack of originality is realling taking hold in all parts of the game industry!! I mean, I went into game and EB today, and they were both selling the same games, damn them!!

Yup.

That was why I put my version of a gameaday attempt down today, you can tell.

Just be natural, yourself and above all else, Wookie or Meka

Okay, took slightly longer than a minute.

Start discussions by all means, but it's taking part that wins you games.

Honestly, the last 8 wins that have come from the forums have NOT been the initial tread. They have been something that the discussion has led to.

So what's that tell you? Obviously the deliberate gamaday attempts reek, and when people are being genuine, and just discussing something they care about, they're more likely to write better.

In fact the last win from an initial post was around 20th May.
