"A Formal Apology To Mr Snuggly"

On the "What's happening with Gameaday topic," I lost my temper when a little when finding out that cheats had won-when I was hoping to win for a review of Red Faction I'd written.

I'm very sorry for getting so angry. I've been here long enough to know the rules, and I shouldn't complain.

Anyway, the main reason was that I just hope people aren't winning for copying key combinations onto SR from sites such as SR.

I don't mind people winning for tips, or cheats they've found themselves. Of course, we don't know if they're copied or not-which is why I am apologizing.

Sorry Mr Snuggly!

Thanks for reading, Ant.

No, that still doesn't work because only one person can buy and someone else is going to win but, the interloper takes YOUR money. Surely, he should take this other person's money.

What's money got to do with it anyway?

SHEEPY! Why did my post on pre-pubescent gaming not win?

I spent ages on it.

SHEEPY! Wheres my game?

I claimed it ages ago, but it hasn't arrived yet.

Well what can old Sheepy add to this long and amusing discussion which he has read all morning whilst listening to mate playing his guitar badly down the phone...

I think that was a good addition.

I'd love to do your job Snuggly :D

My ideal job is to get moaned at all the time ;)

Lets see, we, those that post on the forums are in this metaphorical games store, that is the forums.

We all have money but only one of us can buy a game each day: This refers to Gameaday - only one of us can win each day.

Someone comes in and steals your money - you cannot buy/win this person has 'stolen' a review from elsewhere.

They don't want to come back and talk to us - because they're not regulars (inc reg newbies)!

I thinkt thats the gist of it.

I'm sure Dan2K1 will be happy to elaborate later on.

In the case of reviews, I'd agree that those

I agree ... though, I dont think copying reviews is allowed?

One plea:

If this is turned into a "dramatic reconstruction" for Crimewatch, can someone be wearing a monkey mask?

Upwire news today: Ape Escape
"While you're waiting for hot monkey pants action"

Why are you not winning awards for this stuff?

Utter, utter genius

Everal is one more than several.

Shame.
