Now with the ever so popular GAD now being even more generous then ever, it is not surprising that FAD just seems to be deserted. I think including myself 4 reviews have been wrote today, and the chat rooms are dead.

The idea of GAD is great and don't think for one second I'm saying it's bad, I was just wondering what the people at SR think will happen about this and what the people of FOG think we could do about it.

We try.

Now, let's all go back and argue about pop and Blink 182.

Filmaday has not changed in any way, it's just under the slightly less snappier monicker of 'Gameaday Prize 3'. As far as I'm concerned it's business as usual, things appear to be getting better and better with film reviews and discussions.

As I understand it, FAD isn't just for reviews of movies but the best movie discussion as well.

Hope so, because the DVD forum has been getting better and better, seems to be a nice little place with little or no spamming and the discussions stick the topics (rare indeed).

It'd be a shame to see people desert that place because they might not win a DVD.

Ah well, I'll still be in there shouting about rubbish movies and stuff.

FAD seems to go through stages. I'm an avid FADer and I think it should stay! It does, however, seem to have dropped to the bottom of the list on prize information, so a higher profile might be in order.

I expect that the return to a single quote for GAD only on the main page is a way to speed up the choosing process and give Ali and the guys less work (and less of a headache finding the right quote)
