I have read the "Rules" and "How to win" pages on the website's main page. It says that you must be creative, making your work original and something that will make people buy the product. But the funny thing is, everyone's work is rather good. Isn't it quite hard, considering how competitive it must be to win? I mean, the company say it's real easy, but when it comes down to it...it's seems very hard.

Is this true, or am I wrong for saying so?

I would really appreciate anyone's help, please.

Thank you all.

Condensed version of the most important advice is:

Don't keep writing long blatant GAD attempt posts for the following reasons:
1. You won't always win, which will make you disappointed seeing as you've spent ages writing the GAD attempt
2. Regulars tend to insult really blatant GAD attempts

The upshot of this is that you should
1. POST FOR FUN!!! That's what these forums are for!
2. Post about things that interest you and that you want people to know about and talk about. That way if you win then it's a bonus, if you don't then you've made people discuss which is great. Fun is the key, that way winning is a pleasant surprise and you can't lose.

You can only lose something that you try to win.

You're quite funny Dan2K1. No! You really are, but...I think I'll take misterhappy's advice.

But thanks though.

You shouldn't be here if you just want to win games.

And yes, the standard is high, which is a good thing.

Thank you, I'll try that.

By the way misterhappy, it's a pleasure to meet you.

Hope to hear from you again sometime.

Well, see you around...

No - you don't win. Simple as that!

Why try and achieve something so "easy" as they say, instead do something a lot more challenging and become respected by writing great topics, being an active member of the forums, and forget all about winning, so much so that when or if you actually do win, you'll be pleasantly surprised, fall off your chair, call claims direct and sue someone.
