I am just not doin' good. I've been here nearly forty days now and I still haven't won a GAD prize. I've seen people that have been her two days and have won. I know that alot of my topics aren't great, but I think I've written a few good topics. So what really makes up a GAD prize-winning piece(I am hoping to get some advice from people like GoatBoy or someone who has won a ton of GAD Prizes)?

Is that all! It was about 6 months before I won my first prize!

Maybe you should stop complaining in topic like this (it wont get you any sympathy) and start posting opinions on different parts of gaming, post reviews, cheats, hints, walkthroughs, write and autobiography, or even post a letter! There's so many ways of winning on here, it's unbelievable that a website can give so much away every day!

Don't try to win. Relax, and then see how things go.
If you keep trying to win a gameaday your posts scream "I'm doing this for a game not for fun". Start having fun, that's what the point of a chat forum is. Then you will be suprised. I was suprised..

You tell im Aliboy. I never won a GAD with my posts, but i won by submitting truck loads of cheats. And when posting a new topic, don't do a common post. No Console wars, that ideas been used to many times.

Look at the posts and reviews that win, get an idea of length, content and topics that win then think up something of your own, something that hasn't been done that you can add your views too.

Or find a whole bundle of new cheats and add them to the cheats section.
