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.

Unfortunately, it's not just at Mr. Snuggly.

Of course.

Two instances that immediately spring to mind would be;

Fit naked chicks in the work place, a happy worker is a productive worker.

Fit naked teacher chicks to boost flagging attendances at schools and encourage the avid male pupil to at least keep his eyes at the front of the class. Stop them from wandering about as well I might hasten to add.....

I dont think there is anything...

And if there is, I dont want to know about it...

However, I think we should gather together groups of naked chicks, and apply them to a variety different circumstances, to see if their presence is a boon... or not...

All in the name of science if course.

Special Reserve don't actually spend much time at all selecting the winners - it's not on their list of priorites


And Mr Suggly replied with this:

EXCUSE ME? Sorry, do you work here? Do you know how much work goes into these two competitions every single day? Here's news for you Dan, we have an average of about 1600-1800 posts a day at UKchatforums, plus about 30-35 reviews at UKreviews and about 100 cheats every day. EVERY SINGLE ENTRY is looked at and checked - do you have any idea how long this takes? It takes AGES Dan, absolutely ages, the sad thing is, the more popular it gets, the longer it takes to check. Each review submitted is fed into a few search engines to see if it has been copied, and we check some other review sites that we know of to see if it is a fake - how much time do you think that takes?

To suggest that Gameaday is not on our list of priorities is childish and clearly ignorant - if you knew how much of my day is taken up selecting winners and reading through discussion posts, maybe you'd feel differently. Next time, before you open your mouth, think about what you're going to say because this remark has offended me, personally. We go out of our way to provide a good, fun competition for all of our users, whether they've been here for a few days or a few years, it's a shame when people make ignorant comments like the one you have made.

I'm sorry if I've been a bit harsh, but I took that as a personal slight, as well as a slight on the other people who check Gameaday each day. Please, if you've got something to say, e-mail me.

Thanks
Ali

Sorry if I'm being as stupid as a Dog with a brain the size of a peanut, but is there any reason why?? Does Dan like having a go at you??

Anyway, this topic hasn't turned into what I had hoped. I hoped it would just be an apology from me from acting stupidly, rather than a full-scale argument. Sorry guys.

Anyway Snuggly-do you forgive me?? I acted very stupidly and selfishly, and I apologise profusely.
