Okay, I’ve got an idea for FAD. You know how you can only claim a FAD for 19.99 or less. Well, could you not let people claim any DVD they want but if it’s over 19.99, then they could send the extra money in the post. I know it would only be a couple of pounds but there are so many good double disc DVDs that people can’t claim. Hannibal, Silence of the Lambs, Terminator 1&2, The Abyss, CastAway, Braveheart, Fight Club. There are loads of them.

I don’t know how it would work but I’m sure you can think of something. Maybe people who want a more expensive DVD could claim their prize through the post, sending the extra money and they could also send an e mail confirming it.

This would be great if it worked.

Even better.

DVDs can now be claimed that are under 25 pounds. That means Fight Club, T1 & 2 and all the ones in the opening message. Woohooo!

I personally think all users should have an online account on Special Reserve.
When they win FAD or GAD they are credited with a certain amount of money (20 pounds for a DVD and say 40 for a GAD) then they can use it as they wish.

And if they get 2 FADs they can therefore claim a GAD!

Its not fair, it took me ages to write? Why didn't I win?Damn dirty GAD.

Happy?

I would like to point out that I have won, so it seems hypocritical to be moaning. How about:

Why haven't I won more?

Yes you should.

And don't forget to include the following phrases

"It's not fair"
"It took me ages to write"
"Why didn't I win?"
"Damn Dirty GAD"

Remember, you get stuff for just writing, it's your god given right to demand things for little effort on your part.

Nevermind that this is perhaps the only forum to reward posters with free stuff for letters on a screen, no reason to behave like responsible, intelligent beings.

All together now

I can't wait for all of the Kevin the Teenagers to crawl out of their shell(suit)s again and start their damned moaning about how it's not fait because they don't get free stuff for doing very little.

Hell, I may even compose one myself!
