I think every newbie has the right to come on, write something out of the ordinary and win. But what I hate is when they just leave. It is meant to be a community place. They win then leave. Don't do it please

Most reviews are won before the game is released. That means put how good you think the game will be, win a game (maybe the game you reviewed) and play the game to find it's nothing like you said it would be!

It's not the winning, it's the taking part.
He who comes first, comes last.
Winning is everything.
2nd is losing.
Why are my sentences getting shorter and shorter?

As I remember, it took me ages to win a game and I used to try quite hard to write something decent.

I think it's down to writing something original, or at least writing something that someone hasn't mentioned for a while! Tony said that there is more chance of winning something for a review than a post on here, and the recent winners seem to prove that theory. Problem is that I haven't played too many new games recently, so I have little chance of winning from a review.

God someone, share's my view of those kind of people, I told Tony that and he said 'if they write something good, they will win, we can't stop them do that!' and he said that regulars are more unlikely to win!
