Again with that title!

Anyway, people in school keep asking me to give them my "millions of games" that I've supposedly won in school!

I keep getting people asking me if I've won lately and asking me to give them ideas on how to win!

I keep telling them I've only won a few times but they think I'm winning everyday!

2 of them who keep asking me are members who can't be bothered to post on this site cos they didn't win on their first day of posting!

I told them that it took me 6 months before I won my first and all they said was "oh well"

Has anyone got any siggestions on stopping these people constantly asking me for free games?

It's getting so annoying!

Has anyone else had similar experiences after winning?

I want to win a game but I've ran out of good idea's lately.

I think calling the GBA the equivilent of a PS2 didn't work because Ali worships the GBA and as for that hologram console idea...





....EVERYONE ignored it!



Well nearly everyone anyway...

Well one good tip is not to swear or write bad things in the post, Dont write...

Barbie Race and Ride is C*AP

write...

Barbie Race and Ride is Rubbish

or Better Still...

Barbie Race and Ride is one of the best games Ive ever played, the graphics are spot on, the soundtrack first class and the playability second only to GrandTurismo!

I thought the whole point of reviewing games was to be critical?

In relevence to this, I would like to ask Fantasymeister what he thinks of Barbie Race and Ride.

if you want to win a game don't complain everything off all the time, it will make you sound like a game critic, nothing against them though

All the time Edgy! I told my mates i had won a game so they decided to try u may know them (madhighlander and elclasso) they gave up and then said it was fixed i won!

I hope he was being sarcastic!

My favourite is "Sony Vs Sega".
There's always "Nintendo: Kids only"
As a last resort "SR!! WHERE IS MY GAME???" always remains quite topical, but I'd only advise this if the forums are dead.

And of course no problems arise if you help them out a bit, because that way, if they win they will feel even more disposed to lending you their games now and again.

So advise them to try to say something new, but that if they do go over old topics there is no harm done if they decide to approach similar topics from a different angle.
