9 er-no
10 Dan2K1

Profile: Ortega
It is always nice to find a fair minded individual on the forums, and Ortega is certainly one of them. Despite his love for the Dreamcast, he is open minded, and willing to discuss other consoles including the playstation 2. A regular at the future of gaming, Ortega is not only interested in computer games, but is also a great fan of football, which led to a short period of time under the name Batistuta. Usually found chatting late at night, Ortega is a pleasure to talk to.

Profile: saesee
If you put Star Wars and Playstation 2 in the same place, then you can expect to see saesee very nearby. A huge fan of both, saesee is easily capable of providing an interesting discussion regarding either topic. Usually he can be found in the PS2 forum, chatting about all the new PS2 releases, such as Starfighter, which is amongst his favourites. One of his finest posts involved the hit PS2 game, SSX, where he created a superb story about the characters involved in the game, and resulted in one of his best gameaday wins

Profile: Your Honour
Probably the quickest at adapting to new environments, Your Honour first joined these discussion boards during a mock trial involving other members. He was swiftly up to speed with the trial, and provided an excellent character. Since then, Your Honour has toured the future of gaming forum during his spare time at university. He has one of the highest numbers of total posts, and each one is worth reading. His mature approach to the forums has resulted in several excellent gameaday wins, and a great deal of respect from many of his fellow posters.

This is the first extra gameaday competition that is actually fun to do. So far none of the others have interested me, so I haven`t bothered that much, but with this one, its kind of fun.

Usually found wondering around the Worlds Longet Thread or playing Tribes II with his scyth and screwdriver in hand, Reaper is nearly all ways on the forums wether he's contributing or just being attacked by Iguana with tent-pegs.
