This is an intentionally tricky competition. You have to create the best virtual newbie



1. Think of a user name and a tagline to go with it.

2. Delete the cookie for your normal sign up if you have selected "remember me". You can sign up your new name either by scrolling down the left side strip to REGISTER WITH US - DISCUSSIONS, or by signing up as a newbie as you make your first "reply" post.

3. Sign up as a new user, giving your proper name and address. You DON'T need to give your real e-mail address, as I think this has to be unique. But if you want an extra e-mail address you can always sign up for one at Freeola.

4. Come here and write a post under your new virtual newbie name. The post must display your virtual newbie's character and personality.

The winner will be the post which displays the most original character. This character may be adopted for the forums, so make him/her likeable and not horrible.

You can enter as many times as you like.

You can make several entries under the same virtual newbie name.

You can try to guess who are the real regulars behind the virtual newbies.

The competition will be judged at the end of September.

(it occurs to me that I could enter this myself)

My teas gone cold I’m wondering why… I got out of bed at all.. Morning rain clouds at my window and I can’t see at all. Even if I could it would all be great, put a picture on my wall. It reminds me that it’s not so bad it’s not so bad…………………

"Dear Mister I’m too good to give Dan a gameaday,
This will be the last message I send on your site!
It’s been six months and still no game!
I don’t deserve it?
I know you got my last two emails,
I checked the email address was perfect!
So this is my email I’m sending you I hope you read it!
I’ve got a email hacker working now,
Hacking PBs email account!
Soon enough the games I win will mount!
Hey Tony I’m claiming Pbs gameaday!
Sending it to my postal address!
All I wanted was a lousy gameaday you fool,
Now I’ve gone to stealing this ain’t like me at all!
I loved you Tony why didn’t you give me a gameaday?
Think about it!
You’ve ruined it now,
No more emails will I send you,
Anyway I’m going to bed now,
I’m never coming back,
Why am I telling you all this? I won’t get my game!
Oh **** I shouldn’t have sent this out!!!"

"Dear Toners
You still ain’t given me a prize
I hope you get me on the winners list soon
I ain’t mad I just want to win a copy of Sonic Adventure 2,
If you didn’t want to give me a game for my Extra gameaday idea,
You didn’t have to,
But you could have given me one for my Max Payne review!
That’s my favourite game man,
It took me one hour to write,
I tried my best,
with all my might,
But obviously The gameaday blokes just said NO!
That’s pretty out of order man,
I wrote it in my spare time,
Not giving it a game is one hell of a crime
After all I’ve spent hundreds in your shop more than pb does,
I ain’t that mad I just don’t like buying games,
Remember in Chelmsford I was 10p short and your shop assistants sent me out into the rain,
Just 10p man! That was mega lame!
All I wanted was a copy of Serious Sam,
That game looks brilliant man!
You gotta let me win because I can’t afford it,
I can relate to what you talk about on ukchatforums,
So when I have a rubbish day,
I go on my computer and turn it on,
I ain’t got much else to do, I’m such a geek,
I can’t be bothered to right much but I try my best,
My writings all scrappy and it usually looks a mess,
I sometimes copy reviews from other sites,
In hope of getting a game,
That sure helps but when I don’t win I get depressed,
See everything on your site is great, It’s totally real
And I respect you because you give away free games,
My girlfriends jealous because I have photos of you all over my walls!
But she don’t know how great you are like I do Tony,
No one does,
She doesn’t understand my respect for you giving away games,
YOU GOTTA LET ME WIN MAN!
I’d be the biggest fan you’d ever lose,
Sincerely yours Dan,
PS. SPECIAL RESERVE RULEZ!"

“Dear Tony I wrote a review but I still ain’t won nowt.
It was 50 words long and was wonderful without a doubt…
I sent two posts back in Autumn,
you must notta got them probably a problem with the network or something..”
Sometimes I don’t check my spellings too often,
Rush them quickly without a second thought and post them
Anyway anyway wassup man how’s your daughter,
My daughters getting married too
I’m about to fork out 500 or so quid for her big do,
I spent loads of cash on dresses and wedding cakes and more
However my speech is sadly not as great as yours
I read about your extra gameadays too man,
I entered every one,
Did you like my nice suggestion of advertising in “The Sun”?
I know you probably hear this everyday but I need a gameaday,
I contribute to this site in every way
I got a room full of games from your site,
From Max Payne to Sonic right?
I like that deal you did with free Encarta 99,
Which I got when I registered for 6.99
Anyway I hope you let me win for this,
Add my name to the gameaday site,
Truly yours,
Special Reserve’s biggest fan,
This is Dan...."

Did they do
> something wrong?

I noticed a few threads written by this chap that used certain swear words. I am not sure if it was due to yesterdays events or not. Also according to some staff members he already had 6 other accounts.

As for Tony just taking out his anger, he wouldn't. It isn't fair on the people who use the forums so he wouldn't do it.

LOL unlucky
As for translating, I don't think there is much point in doing that now that your cover is blown.
