Strange isn't it?
When you start to read a certain type of post, you immediately hear the GAD tone of it.
Much like this one, devoid of usual jokery and very diplomatic and serious.
So what Microsoft?
Well, the sentences for a blatant attempt will be structured so as to pose questions, and to then answer them yourself in a most wordy and news-reader style manner. To stress the sincerity of the attempt, there must be long paragraphs with little break up using the space bar.
To talk about gaming AI or other similar deep and exciting topics is a good indicator of an attempt.
But the tone must be consistent and unengaged throughout.
You must be careful to not write in your usual style, but to adopt one of authority and philosophical nature.
Often you will skip entire sections and just read the start and end, which means you will miss the middle section unless you are a judge. So it is usual that you cant type complete nonsense and nobody will read it anyway. To prove my point, reply and quote this middle section to indicate that you even bothered to read this far. I know I don't and can begin to talk about the benefits of eating satsumas without anyone even realising I am doing this. Satsumas are much nicer than oranges, easier to peel and dont get the stingy zest in your eyes.
So what about the future?
Well, this is the section where the blatant attempt will begin to offer dry predictions about what may lay in store for gamers, often using words like reality, gaming purpose and specification.
You must be careful to keep the neutral tone of the topic through to the end, this ensures that you sound serious and needy of a game. On no account start to revert to normal chat mannerisms like mentioning gaystation and rubbising Nintendo. So, as I approach the end of this blatant attempt at winning, I trust that my overly-serious tone of writing has assured the judges of my strenous effort at writing this guff and indicate my worthiness of a win.

If youre going to ahve a competition for the best post, then you have to expect people to try and write the best post of the day.
It is strange that as soon as a gad attempt comes along though, it has a new "GAD" tone...

I disagree.
But with Wookiee, or Goaty?
That is the question....

Didn't you do this a while back as well?
Well, I'm already YH.
We shall claim everyone, eventually.

You're turning into me now.
No reason... just for the hell of it.
I disagree.
