You may already know this, but…

After submitting a review or topic, or anything really, make sure you don’t change your screen name. That is, if you only feel the need to change it...so if you do, just make sure it’s done after the winners have been chosen for that particular day of sending something.

You may wonder what I mean, and yes…I know it sounds complicating, and it is.

Put it this way though…if you make a review and change your name before checking if you won or not, and then someone else out of the blue signs up to GAD with the screen name you used to own, they can win on the review that you had posted the day before, providing it was a winning review of course.

Still confused…I don’t blame you, but thanks for reading anyway.

While staff members are about, why can't i use this as a username?

Is it because some of the characters don't work on SR?

No probe loki.

It' does not matter now anyway, I just thought that if I were 100% correct, maybe I could help others on GAD so they won't make the same mistake as I did.

But thanks for taking note.

Although to be fair, when Mr. Snuggly said that it can't happen he was actually a 'bit' more right than you. In that it has never happened. And that it has never happened to you.
