"EXTRA EXTRA GAMEADAY PRIZE - READ ALL ABOUT IT"

If you mooch about on the Special Reserve and Freeola sites you'll find little problems or annoyances. e.g. why can't I do this, I can't understand that or couldn't we do the other.

So we would like your comments in this BUG TEST. An extra prize will go to the person who contributes the most to improving this site with little tweaks or solutions.

LITTLE TWEAKS are the operative words. You will not win anything for suggesting that we spend £35 billion on a re-design.

You must post your comments under this topic (or the similar one on the Playstation 2 forum) to stand a chance of winning.

Good luck


The Winner will be decided on Christmas Eve

No a full chart.

One of the bulbs blew and we could not work out which one so we had to take them off!

You get a chart anyway - every search result is in chart order

Looking good. Now there is just the matter of changing the colours.

P.S what happened to the christmas lights

YEah when you type in S you get a chart.

For Quake 3 simply type QUAKE 3, QUAKE or QUAK

For Dead or Alive type DEAD, DEAD OR ALIVE or DEAD AL

See - it's really easy. First parts of words work. Middle parts don't/

The problem is that if yu type something that is spelt wrong it can't pick it up. It only allows spelling mistakes that are exactly spelt right. Also abriviations should be acepthed. I also found that it won't pick quake 3 spelt like quake III. I think that if you put say "DEAD"
then it would come up with simular results. In this case dead or alive 2.

See what i am sayin!

By the way merry chrismas tony

Personally (no offence rhino), I don't think there's anything wrong with the links on the left. It means I can get their quickly with one click of my trusty mouse, which is made out of sugar.

WE should be able to email ali any news he could put onto the site.

I think you should scrap the whole new search engine and make a link which takes you to the refined search. Bu doing this you have a reason to remove the banner down the left hand side containing Ukgames, ukdreamcast, ukn64 etc. This would make the site less confusing than it already is.


The downside is that people would HAVE to load an extra page (refined search) to get anywhere. Also, the list of links down the left hand side does an excellent job of telling people what's on our site.

You would soon be complaining if you had to go to Refined Search before you could click a link to UKdiscussions.

Remember our philosophy: People want to be able to get from all over the place to everywhere else. Preferrable with one click.

So the strip down the left hand side will definitely stay, at least for the time being. We are working on improving our Refined Search.

Some comments about the search engine but the ones which I have read don't actually say what the problem is. Can someone be a bit more specific?
