"What was it like winning your first GAD?"

I have just won my first GAD.
It's only up to the value of £25 but still, that's fair enough. when i found out this morning, i was as chuffed as can be. So, what was it like winning your first GAD, and what did you claim?

I won GaD on my 5th day with a brill review of GTA3 and was so chuffed u had to get my mum and show her. Regrettebly i chose Burnout which is bloody good but I only wanted it for the crashing engine thing and I'm also crap at it. :(

I've chosen MGS2 as well for my second GAD. My first was a £25 GAD, so I chose Robot Wars on the PC.

I wonder if SR will end up giving away more copies of MGS2 than they actually sell? I've noticed a lot of people have claimed this game.

Thank ye very much

*Stands up*

Took me a couple of months before I won for a post on MGS2. I felt great, really pleased with myself and I jumped around and cheered for a few minutes.

And to be honest, it's still the same now.

Won my first GAD about a month ago and was well chuffed. The actual post had taken me about 20 minutes to write while the stereo was on full blast and the sister was banging away on the PS2. Could barely contain my excitement when I realised I actually won and my mother take the best part of a day to actually understand that I could have the game of my choice for free! I chose Final Fantasy X for my win but am currently considering changing it for a Gamecube title (I've checked this with SR).
Won my 2nd GAD yesterday and was just as thrilled as the first one. To be honest, not an awful lot of effort went into the post and it turned out to only be just over 500 words. That one will definately go towards a Gamecube title. Possibly Resident Evil.

SR, I love you.

i had been here for around 225 days and had won nothing.

then out of the blue i won GAD 3 saturdays running!

my first one it shouted for several minutes til my throat was soar.

my second i just held my hand over my mouth in shock.

and on my 3rd on i was to busy playing the game i claimed for my first one to really notice i had won.
