Hi there,

Gameaday will shortly be expanded again to TWO prizes per day. Aside from the existing prize for reviews, the new prize will primarily be for game walkthroughs, or to be exact, walkthroughs you have written yourself. Hopefully this means we'll see an increase in the amount of written walkthroughs coming through from you lot. It also means we'll be more vigilant with fake ones, so they won't get through.

If no decent walkthroughs are submitted, then the winner will be picked from either that day's chat posts, or cheats from UKcheats.com so it's a much more varied approach to this new prize than we're used to. Hopefully it shouldn't cause too much trouble.

So there you have it - Gameaday expanding again. We'll let you know exactly when the new system is being launched (it'll be fairly soon) but in the meantime you can start writing those walkthroughs!

Cheers
Ali

I done a massive walkthrough for timesplitters 2, all my own work, it never won.

I almost hung myself on a rusty meat hook.

That's nice.

I wrote a walkthrough once. It took ages. And it was not much fun to write.

Because it adds nothing to the site.

If people submit walkthroughs, and other people come to the site for walkthroughs they have to register with SR to do so, so SR can send advert emails to them, and it's attracted more people to the site.

Forum posts don't really do that, hence why GAD 1 is probably gone for a while or longer...

Besides walkthrough's are okay, some people might prefer them to reviews, or be better at one or the other. One things you can say since the end of GAD1 is that more people have won instead of a few people winning most of the time. That has to be good for all forum users, surely ?

Woohoo!

Not that I'm ever likely to attempt one, but now at least I do have incentive to do so.

Thank you for dealing with this so promptly it's nice having a service provider that offers a good service, rare to find nowadays.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
