1. Who Chooses the Gameaday prizes on the excellent Special Reserve website?
a) Ali
b) Tony
c) Grix
d) An alien
e) all of the above

Right, that's the first question. Got it? Good. But we're not going to give you that...here's the next.

2. What is the animal associated with tasty chocolate biscuits?
a) Ant
b) Sheepy
c) Penguin
d) Pokemon

and on we go.....

3. What is the name of the forum's character who is madly addicted to sugar?
a) Sheepy
b) Fantasy Meister
c) Darkness
d) Ant

4. What three letters, when used together to form an item found in a lot of Playstation and PC games, does Grix Thraves hate the most?

5. Name three 'people' on this site with the name of an animal (or are indeed animals, allegedly)

6. What is the name of the new competition set up to run side by side with Gameaday?

7. What is the old name for the Gamecube that Nintendo gave up on and some people on these forums still insist on using?

8. Name the famous Sega character who is the same as question 7 above.

9. Name the games:
a) Fly around that tarmac and hang on to cars in Tokyo-to, and watch out for that mad police man!
b) He smokes and he sneaks, he's certainly not a liquid serpent!
c) You may have crash landed, but with the help of sheep, elephants and other animals you can chip your way back.
d) What a party! Pity that your wife wants you to clean up the house. Good job you've got a fast appendage (joke)!

10. Name Ant's character in Grix's Star Wars 'skit' (ahem!)

11. Name Bluebeetle's favorite vegatable.

12. Name the Game character:
I'm a strange colour for my race, but I make up for that by being really good at one thing. I do love curling up, but not with a good book. I have lots of friends and one main enemy that goes by two different names depending on what country you are in.

I just spotted the Gameaday winner I reckon. Posted at 9:53 by Tony. Only a review can beat it. Will this be Tony's first win? Fingers are crossed.

Yep, today was our last day. It was a half-day as well.
For Xmas I'm getting TWINE on PSX, Star Wars:Demolition on PSX, and Championship Manager: 00/01 on PC. Not bad.
I'm also getting other stuff, but not to do with gaming.

1. Who Chooses the Gameaday prizes on the excellent Special Reserve website?

b) Tony

d) An alien
e) all of the above

The answer is NOBODY. The Gameaday random number generator picks the day's character count to determine the approx length of the winning message. It looks for the neatest arrangment of upper and lower case, properly punctuated and without adverts or foul asterisks. Then it compares the contenders with the "banned from winning list" which includes most of the regular's names. From the finalists a winning entry is hand picked by the "flashing hand". The winning entry is of course scored on the basis of how much it will wind up the regulars!

Right, that's the first question. Got it? Good. But we're not going to give you that...here's the next.

2. What is the animal associated with tasty chocolate biscuits?
a) Ant
b) Sheepy
c) Penguin
d) Pokemon

The answer is ANTS and PENGUINS. Yes Ants eat Penguins and this is horrible I know, but true.

3. What is the name of the forum's character who is madly addicted to sugar?
a) Sheepy
b) Fantasy Meister
c) Darkness
d) Ant

Answer - ANT and DARKNESS. Ant is too afraid to take the sugar from the kitchen floor in the daylight, so has to take Darkness with him.

4. What three letters, when used together to form an item found in a lot of Playstation and PC games, does Grix Thraves hate the most?

Answer - As we all know that Grix worships Sony and the PS2 the answer by process of elimination should be N64. But, we know this is wrong because Grix has been ferosciously complaining about the new generation of N64, so the real answer is N65.

5. Name three 'people' on this site with the name of an animal (or are indeed animals, allegedly)

Answer - It's easy to spot the fakes because animals cannot type. Look for somebody who cannot type, that leaves er-no, not him surely! I can reveal that the beast is...... aaahhhh chomp (dies)


6. What is the name of the new competition set up to run side by side with Gameaday?

Answer - Filmaday, but DVDaday and Movieaday should all get you there (and stop other sites from copying our names).

The winner each day will give us a DVD so that we have something to watch, so that we spend less time on the discussions forums so that they can say whatever they want and get away with it.


7. What is the old name for the Gamecube that Nintendo gave up on and some people on these forums still insist on using?

Answer - No eyed Plastic Toy Box with Lid

8. Name the famous Sega character who is the same as question 7

Still no eyed Sonic Plastic Toybox with Lid


9. Name the games:
a) Fly around that tarmac and hang on to cars in Tokyo-to, and watch out for that mad police man!

Answer - Tonka racing

b) He smokes and he sneaks, he's certainly not a liquid serpent!

Answer - Tiddly Winks

c) You may have crash landed, but with the help of sheep, elephants and other animals you can chip your way back.

Answer - Scrabble

d) What a party! Pity that your wife wants you to clean up the house. Good job you've got a fast appendage (joke)!

Answer - Twister


10. Name Ant's character in Grix's Star Wars 'skit' (ahem!)

Answer - Ant


11. Name Bluebeetle's favorite vegatable.

Answer - any blue vegetable with clorachloriveB+ to enrich the colour of his shell

12. Name the Game character:
I'm a strange colour for my race, but I make up for that by being really good at one thing. I do love curling up, but not with a good book. I have lots of friends and one main enemy that goes by two different names depending on what country you are in.

Answer - Captain Pugwash
