Okay, an absolute torrent of entries for this one, it too ka good couple of hours to read them all, and I had to kill several trees for the paper to print them all out, so no moaning about the winners.

Winner of a game of his choice - mickey, for his suggestion of a 'Gameaday Receipt' idea, of which many of you suggested, but mickey got their first. Well done, mickey.

Runners up prize of a DVD of his choice goes to Aliboy, for his 'Santa' idea. It's well put and a nice festive idea, so it's definitely worthy of a prize. Congrats.

Thanks to everyone for all your entries, we read them all and found them to be very useful. Peace out, and complaints to the usual address. Cheers

Ali

2. Suggest how we can attract more visitors to the site from within the pages of our Club Magazine and our adverts in the specialist press such as PC Gamer.

3. Remember space is very limited. But you can enter this with something as simple as a change to the wording which we already use.


Below is an example of the type of thing we are looking for:

I think one way to get more people to visit your site is to make everything free.

Dont think that will attract too many people!! :D

I think the best idea (sorry if its been said before, dont fancy reading 380 posts to check) would be something like:

Title: FREE

Picture: Two of the latest games and one latest DVD

Text: Get your hands on these every single day!

Then at the bottom write the web address

A picture of a bloke sitting staring at a computer screen with a whole lot of games in a box beside him.

A guy comes along and says "wow where'd you get all those games?"

1st guy: "I got them for free"

2nd guy: "from where?"

1st guy: "I won them by posting topics, reviews and cheats"

2nd guy: "what on the internet?"

1st guy:"yes at specialreserve.co.uk you should try it, it's great you can even win dvd's to"

2nd guy: "great I'm off to win myself some games"


Explination: The pile of games in the box will encourage people to come here simply because they want to win loads of games, as there is no limit to the amount of times you can win.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
Very pleased
Very pleased with the help given by your staff. They explained technical details in an easy way and were patient when providing information to a non expert like me.
