The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY
In the topic called "Goat Boy's Profile" you'll find the profiles which have been written so far for the Upwire e-mails, posted of course by Grix.
Don't look for number 8 - Ali says it would put a voodoo curse on the subject and infect the readers with eebie-jeebies.
Most of the profiles have been written by Ali, but not all.
Now it's your chance.
Write about someone who has not yet been featured, so DON'T write about these people:
1 Grix (Thraves or Brain)
2 Meka_Dragon
3 Ant
4 Sniper
5 Fantasy Meister
6 Big Sally
7 SHEEPY
9 er-no
10 Dan2K1
11 pb
12 RastaBillySkank
13 Goatboy
Competition ends during the first few days of August.
The best entry will be humerous and reasonably accurate without causing offence.
Try to keep between about 80 and 100 words.
There will only be one winner but we reserve the right to use more than one entry in our e-mail and the magazine.
Good luck. Ali will judge this one so try to spell corectley.

Haha! I can't believe you did a profile on him!
Shaneo - Likes Pork.

Made his big come back not long ago after taking loeave for sometime. He has always written long yet useful posts and been there for a lot of us. He is a loyal ninty but has views on everything and started the Great console war. A fun guy and level headed to talk to.
Dringo.

LoL, I whole-heartedly agree.

Despite the size of his huge paws, this gentle giant still manages to use the keyboard with a supreme amount of accuracy. Consistently conveying an outstanding level of knowledge, he is probably the most respected member on the PS2 forums. He is often a peacemaker as well, during numerous console wars discussions, he always manages to come up with a calming remark. A recent trip to Florida has allowed our furry companion to gain even more wisdom, and he looks set to produce some more of his superb gameaday winning posts.
They're both good and both funny :)
And I don't take offence to them one bit...
so they both fit the winning categories! :)
What else can be said about Quazimodo than "great guy". He is a pleasure to talk to and is an exceptional addition to the SR forums. Whether it's having an argument with someone over a game or discussing the size of Lara Croft's polygons, he always has something to talk about. He'll never get caught out with nothing to say. He's a good friend to all and would be dearly missed if he leaves the SR forums.
