"No more jealousy then?"

Goodbye GAD 1, you've been good to me.

But with no more GAD1, then there will be no more of those cynical replies.

"Oh, another GAD for the pile" and all the like.

To be honest, I reckon there was a portion of the site that was jealous of me.

Not because of the way I write, but just because I won free games.

I reckon this even meant people didn't reply to the posts, they just turned their noses up, worried that their crappy piece on console wars would again get overlooked, because once more I had managed to amuse and entertain.

I'm also glad that I never had a hissy fit about not winning.

Never claimed that I deserved to win more.

Never let one win go by without saying thank you, and being trully grateful for Special Reserves kindness.

Will I still be here without GAD1?

Of course.

I haven't been here as much in recent months anyway, because of problems at work, but I still SR these forums as a good place to dump the contents of my brain. Give things a first airing, see how they're received.

Without SR I would have no ambitions of being a writer, and I probably wouldn't be playing games quite so regularly.

SR has been good to me, and there's no way I'd leave just because free games stopped on chat posts.

Hell, I've got the Henchman's Survival Guide part 3 to deliver yet!

So this is a big thank you to all that made the GAD competition so enjoyable, and a big screw you to all those that ever felt any hate towards me, just because I wrote something better than you did.

hell, maybe I'll even write a few reviews every now and then, I don't have that much spare cash to actually buy games! ;o)

Why thankyou.

I still hate most things. On a completely different point, there's a picture of Mystique out of blue make up and gay red hair dye in this months issue of Empire. Rebecca Romijijijijin. She's fit.

Bah, per post is the real one you want. No, I couldn't be bothered working it out.

Do I get a prize for winning 15 times without EVER winning GAD3 or EGAD? Do I? Do I? No?

Darn.

My estimate is that 9 of my wins were for reviews, 4 were for spoofs and two were for actual gaming related posts.

Yes, that was my pointless fact of the day. Stay tuned for tomorrow's, when I tell you how many times I've thrown up.

*Misses Stryke and his "I hate you all" thing he had going*

:(

I do, in fact, know less than most single-celled organisms about games. Haven't won a GAD since they stopped selling DVDs.

Couldn't have put it better myself Meka. Now perhaps everyone can get on with reading and writing decent topics for their own sake.

Yes, it's a shame that DVD's can't be reviewed anymore, the night I saw LotR, I got ready to write an inspired review, but sadly, I found out I couldn't. Now look what's happened, I've almost caught up with you on GAD count... the world's gone mad.
