I was just wondering if the donations should have stopped by now as it has passed the 14th of December, but I know some people have donated their game before and after this period, but do the children at GOS really want more games to play on? They have about 15 now I think, and there's only one PS2, so they aren't going to be able to complete many, or play that many of them! Also, playing on so many games is actually bad for your health, so they should play in moderation, whcih I am sure they are doing.

I have just won gameaday, but I don't see the point in donating it now, especially seeing that this is after the allocated time. I don't want any of you to hate me if I clain the win, but one of my auctions has just finished and I promised to donate half the money to a charity of the winning bidders choice. I will now be sending a cheque for £7.00 to the NSPCC as the auction finished at £10.52, so that is more than half.

I won gameady despite the fact that the game I would like to see made being already made and out on a format that I was unaware. If you read my post on BLADE then you'll see that my idea is quite good, and that the game should be remade - any way post your comments there.

Cheers

Well Goldy

Your lucky in the fashion that over the course of your options we instantly decided in not awarded further prize for less than your views on more and SR is tremendously grateful elsewhere and on the blue to orange enormously winning in everything - er that's if I understand you correctly in unbeffuddling your message

I'll make sure that at least £30 - the price of two DVD's goes to the charity.

Ok cheers.

No, actually I will claim a game, and then sell it at auction and give the proceeds to a charity of my choice - the GOS kids have enough DVDs etc for now. And I promise I will do this, I'll have proof you know.

Hey, I didn't know the game was out did I. Now, congratulations to the new Jimmy who won the bug test, so I will donate this game to charity - there is no need to call me lucky ok?

Donations are now taking the form of two DVD movies instead of one game.

I think we should close off the appeal at the end of December.
