Frogman recently won for a review. I happen to know it is copied. He was bragging at school about he copied a good MSR review (since he has only just got the game) and hopes to win. I know there is not much for us to do about it because he will not admit where it is from. He mentioned something about some amaetures site and that was it.

I know there is nothing we can do but just voice your opinion on it and tell me what you think.

It's not that I mind being beaten, but when It is by something that is all copied I get slightly buzzed.

PS. He is also Whazzer on another account that copied a first MSR review.

THE DASTARD!!!! Paste a sentence of the review into Google and see what results come up. You're more than likely to find the original then.

MAKE MORE NOISE AND STOP HIM FROM CLAIMING - I READ IT AND I KNEW IT WAS COPIED!!!


DAMN HIM!!!!!

Right.

Let TONY or ALI know by emailing them - the same email addy as the one you would use if you were going to claim a game.

OK?

This is DISGRACEFUL "Do not attempt to copy a review and paste it as all reviews are run through search engines"

DO YOU SEE?

SPECIAL RESERVE WAKE UP.

I think you should email the gameaday winners address with things like this for now, but I feel a proper process should be put in place to 'shop' copied material.

I think that he should be stopped from posting reviews for a period of time. I bet that will make him think twice haha. :)
