I was just reading the Prime topic by GAME called "Nintendo fires its first shot". At the end of the article GAME puts "~Cloudchaser.com" to indicate he has copied it from a web site. In the title of the topic, he puts "Cloudchaser" to indicate it has been copied from a web site.

Guess what?


HE WON GAD!


Being a nice bloke he has made it clear that it has been copied, and has (from what I can tell) told GAD not to award him the prize.

Now, it's only been a week since I last came on GAD, but are there new staff members sorting out prizes???? Maybe the problems with the system stem from the top?

Thank you for bringing this to my attention SonicRav. We wouldn't want it to be swept under the carpet, would we?

The junior staff involved (by the way) are (I hope) only responsible for selecting the finalists, and not for the final decision.
