Hello there.

Me and my chum Venombyte were just chatting about the closure of the last story. We've come to the conclusion that we need more writers... and since there are a lot more people on here than there were half a year ago, I think it's time to try and encourage more people to write.

So, we've come up with the idea of a short story competition... it's a nice little idea, that should get more people writing, so we have a good idea of their talents.

This also applies to the CURRENT writers. I.E. Me, Pb, Meka, Ant... so on. You can write a story too.

If you're interested in this, please state so below/above, so I've got a good idea of figures. Then... I'll think of what you can write about. :0)

Ant, this whole story writing thing is cool. It shows Grix does have a good idea every once in a while :-P

I love this competition.

It will get more people writing, the quality of topics has gone up and....I won GAD with my story. {:)

By the way, I'm interested to know, does anyone know the quote Ali used on, "Today's Gameaday Winner!" on UKGames.com??

It is a comp, but a comp set up by Grix, who is not a staff but a member of these forums. Though if he did have the power to assign GAD's....
