My Hi-Fi remote...

I had it in my hand a minute ago!

Now I can't find it!

How can I listen to my hardcore grunge Slipknot* without my handset?

Noooooooooooooooo!

*Slipknot are crap and are breaking up, I'm really going to listen to The Music, it's a good album...

It was a good album actually!

Where is it!?!

DAMN THING!

I gave up trying to win GADs by posting last week, when I had posted a Video Games Celebrety Deathmatch post and not won. I've found that it is actually harder to win by Posting, than it is for Reviewing. I had my first GAD the other day and was completely surprised, as I had reviewed the Official PS2 Ocean Blue Controller.

Alright, Callum. I have been searching the SR Archive for the two posts that won me my GADs. I only found one, but if you really want to win Gameaday, then you need to write topics like these:

http://ukchatforums.reserve.co.uk/ archive/display_messages.php? forumid=185&threadid=39612&offset=20¤tsort=desc

That is the sort of standard you are up against.

If you cut and paste that URL, then remove the space between php? and forumid, and the space between .co.uk/ and archive/
