what it says in the title.

I can't imagine it would be that hard to implement an automated GAD/FAD win notification email.

Sometihng like when you win it emails you at your default email address.

Ok so you can say you should just check the win stats but when your rushed it would be faster to open your email, find an email from SR as Youve won GAD/FAD

Inside a little paragraph of info and a link to click on to claim your GAD/FAD

Anyone else think this is a good idea?

Cos it is possible for n00bs or dull people to miss their name in the list.

I know why Special Reserve haven't implemented this.

It's because if they did, new members would turn up for one day, post a load of attempts then never return (just checking their emails for one off SR.)

So, because SR don't notify you by email, you are more likely to come back to the site to check, and SR are hoping you notice the adverts placed all over the site too.
