If you've won gameaday it must be a great feeling. To have beaten everyone else. But being honest here and sticking to the subject please tell me do you think your's deserved to win?
I look at the winners page everyday as I enter cheats,reviews and opinion. So when I see the winners I am some-what disappointed and then I have a look to see how they won so I can improve next time. And I look at there's and think there rubbish and how did they win.
So is it just me or do you agree?

Sometimes you win, sometimes you dont! Thats life, on the occassions that Ive been lucky enough to win I think Ive deserved the win.
Thats not to say that I dont get dissapointed when I try and dont win but then if winning was easy there wouldnt be a challenge.
My one piece of advice would be to go against the flow sometimes, if the last few Gameaday winners have won for their reviews of GranTurismo3 then it doesnt matter how great your new review is it probably wont win (Even if you think its the best game in the world!). Think ahead, be original and try not to write the same stuff that everyone writes all the time if you really want to win.
The last point is that winning isnt everything, sometimes its just nice to talk to others on the forums who love gaming like yourself. :-)

Sniper I hear you win all the time along with er-no. Not many people like you. If you go into some of the other 10 rooms I have created you will discover this
Doesn't matter about the posts it's how long you've been on SR!
Good Philosephy Turbo :)
(This theory would have worked yesterday *cough*)
Look at the top posters in the last 30 days. I'd say everyone above 50 (and a few below) are proper regulars. Why? Because they posts loads and are on here nearly every damn day. That makes them true foggers. Every one of their 500+ posts can't be GAD attempts!
I have won GAD 3 times. Once was a semi-try (I think SR took pity). Once was a post of an experience and one was a competition. If you expect to win you won't. If yo don't you will. Simple.
The GAD is a mysterious being. If you look for it it disappears. If you turn your back it's there in front of you. Don't look for it, let it come to you.

I was only joking, and I think your statement was true I didn't set up a room to say I hated them. And your statement was also top notch stuff. Keep up the good work.

Even if it is considered a GAD-worthy post, it wasn't intended to be, and to accept a GAD for it would seem a bit hypocritical.
It's worded 'properly' to try and make my feelings clear on the matter, but can come across as a deliberate GAD attempt.
