COMPETITION NOW CLOSED - WINNER TO BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY

Another day, another great opportunity to win an EXTRA GAMEADAY prize. That's one prize of any game of your choice if you are a member of SR, or one prize of an SR Membership with Free Gift, if you are not a member.

Take a look at this page:

http://registration.freeola.net/errors/e.php?ec=404

The purpose of this page is to show people that they have gone to the wrong page.

However, there is another important role for these pages, and that's to get people to our site! Most of the people seeing this error page have never heard of us, and we want them to become SR fans.

This competition closes on August 10th and will be judged by Loki himself.

To win you must design a simple, fast-loading page with sufficient innovation to achieve a high click rate to the following sites:
UKgames.com
UKpc.net
Freeola.com
GetDotted.com

Place the url in a reply in this thread and Loki will pop in from time to time and publish your link as a hotlink in this opening thread (so that people can easily see all the page designs you have entered).

You can enter as many times as you like and there will be one winner who produces the design which impresses loki the most. If no designs impress loki at all then he will not issue a prize.

It's vital that the page loads quickly. You are more likely to win with some clever wording than you are with flashy designs. You can use one of our stock banner, like the one shown on the error page at present, or you can make your design without a banner if you like.

Good Luck.

Heh, thanks I suppose. But you've got to understand, I did so many so I got at least one good one. Sadly I didn't get one good one, ah well, another day, another opportunity ;-)

Well unless Loki is your mum we're still no closer as to who could win.

OK, imho. This is who would get my vote.

Whooo gets my vote for number one spot for attempt number three (the big red splat one). Keeps with SR branding. Gets the message across. In your face, but still nice n simple. Quick to load and job done.

and Tyla gets second place for either of his pages. Obviously a professional and two very tidy pages.

My wooden spoon could go to a number of people. But in the end it has to be awarded to Rickoss. For perseverence. :)

OK, let the speculation begin, who is going to win??

My money's on Tyla, only after my first attempt though, obviously ;)

Almost the same as the first one but with a nice little red splat on it as well for colour.

You know the routine.

These are the last ones I promise.

Numbers 10 and 11 are actually streamlined versions of 'errorpage' and 'errorpage5'.

Due to public demand.
