You may well think I cannot sack you, that's fine to think that...you carry on thinking that...
ANYWAY, with light to my extreme annoyances at complete * winning games and dvds like nobody's business from copying another person's reviews, and getting away with it. Clearly the 'internet filter/search' blah blah blah thingy doesn't work at all, so here is something that I feel could help stop people like Atomic Koala winning prizes for doing a c+p job.
Problems: people are winning that never post on the forums in disussing, and it's damn annoying. We do all the talking, we help make the site good, and then people who no one has ever spoken to on here, goes and wins a game for a review (possibly copied) of something like, oh I don't know, an unreleased football game perhaps. Takes the Urine, don't it.
Right - Dan, hasn't won in ages, Dan doesn't give a monkey, as Dan does not own a monkey, but would buy one if asked, anywho new rules to be implimented, as agreed by Tony, with any luck:
You can only be entered for the 3 gameaday prizes if you have an entry, naturally, but you can only enter if you have been a discusser on the forums for 14 days. I.E we will have gotten to know you, you will be respected, or not, and your writing style will be recognised - if you cANknot Sp-hell to save ur lyfe in discuccing n'd thenn gO nd possed an absolutely amazing review with incredible use of vocabulary and exceptionally well written, then we will know that it must be copied, or at least have suspicions aroused.
JAT'S cannot win, seeing as you must be a member for a minimum of 14 days.
Anyone found to be copying reviews after having 'their' prize sent to them will have their address told to us so we can go and pay them a visit...
Dan2K1 must win at least once a month or he will regain sanity, and you do not, DO NOT want that to happen.
Reviews of games that have not yet been released cannot win. Especially two within a week, of the same game. Talk about variety...
ALL posts be checked out, and for those members who do not have a DVD player, they can have an account whereby if they win 2 DVDs, they can exchange that prize for a Game instead, of equal or less value.
Thank you
Tony, read the above, some makes sense.

i agree with that rule as well. it might just make them come on wait for 14 days then win and go off.
so to make this even better how about you have to be a regular to win. or is that too over the top. as some ppl 500 days old are still not regulars.

I agree with the 14 days thing. There's nothing that annoys me more than a JAT coming on, winning once and then bogging off again.

So we're in a bit of a hole. Tell you what, we'll toss a coin (NOT like *that* Wookiee! :-))
Heads or tails?

Dan... Stop moaning you pahetic fool. You're supposed to be 16... or something around there anyway... Err... Yeah... but this is far too elitest for the forums.
Stop moaning.
Stop moaning.
i must agree it's unfair to other people who do write it by themselves i'd never dream of cheating like that.

I think he's just saying that JAT's can't win.
But I think it's a pretty stupid idea all round.
I think he's just annoyed as he hasn't won for a while.

I think that this post is pretty elitist really.
I think that this site is already a bit silly with all this newbie and regular rankings stuff, but limiting GADs to regulars...
It's a little bit over the top.

I wrote a song about Dan2K1 for the contest thingy... have a look if you have time... it's on one of the first few pages.
