"EXTRA EXTRA GADDY PRIZE - NOW CLOSED"

** COMPETITION CLOSED **

Well, this was a tough one to judge. There were loads of good entries. A lot of good ideas didn't make it becuase they were too long to make it on a shop sign as a nice, neat slogan. Plus, quite a few people suggested very similar slogans but the winner goes to the person who came up with the best variation that we will use in forthcoming promotions.

The winner is Dr Gonzo for the slogan:
"Play, complete, trade, repeat".

Thanks for all your great entries,

Loki.

So easy that we are only running this until Friday October 12th (closes at Midnight that day).

At the risk of promoting Electonics Bou... Bou... nope, can't bring myself to say it.

Well they have a slogan. Only one. I think it is "Played it, Trade it" but of course I would not read their ads or be seen in one of their stores (so how would I know).

The thing is - we want a slogan too, for our part-exchange games initiative in the shops (which will soon be coming to the internet - mad fools we are). We take games in part-exchange and then we sell them at second-hand prices.

So the challenge is:

Make up a nice short snappy slogan which can be printed on signs in our shops, to let everybody know that we take old games in part exchange for new games (or anything).

Off you go then - please don't enter 900 rubbishy slogans. Just a few good ones will do.

There can only be one winner but you can enter as many times as you like. The best slogan in the opinion of, well me actually, will win any game of their choice from our catalogue.

Now let's see - my money is on Monkey with Attitude (if he is still around). But no preferential treatment will be given, ever.

New for old, good for bad.

(thats better oold for new what am i thinking!)

Part Exchange Your Games

(I don't suppose I can win if I am the judge)

(It's not exactly "snappy" anyway - is it?)

Won it? Lose it.

or

Played it too much, you're losing touch, trade it here to stay cool as such.

(well maybe not :) )

Here's one I played earlier.

Special reserve, Swapping made easy.

Go on swap it. We dare you!

Don't buy it from our shop, use your old ones in a swap.

Old for New, Good for Bad.

Good for Bad.

Old for New.
