Dear SR

Ok I know you are busy in there but i've been here a damn long time and after writting what I see as top class reviews and great topics in discussions i've got second opinions and they think they are outstanding.

er-no has won befor but he is still writing top class material and he is still not winning.

I don't just write in to win actually most of the time I do it for fun but it would be nice for a little confidence boost.

Am I really that bad! i've got many a review in N64 magazine and previously N64 Pro and I felt I had the capabilities to be a great journalist but now I feel maybe i'm not as good as I thought.

Am i just missing a little something or am i contributing great things when other do the same.

I will continue to write but maybe I could do with some pointers in the right direction in particullar by Grix.

Anyway back to Arguing

Yours

Dringo

If it was the other one though... it would describe the feelings of many a newbie... AND help them to win!

I should be knighted.

(For that?)

No, just for my general abilities.

Pb said it posts should be short and to the point, with maybe a bit of humour thrown in!

lol @ FUCIT :)

Before mods delete or edit that remember that the European pronounciation of that would be "fU-sit"

Here's a suggestion.

Quit your moaning before I give you a cyberslab!

No wait, too late!

Hey pb... he said me. ;)

Just remember the FUCIT rule.


Funny. Must make people laugh.

Understandable. Must be of good spelling, and paragraphs are VERY important.

Concise. Don't make it too lengthy.

Informative. Try and tell us something we DON'T know.

Truthful. Try to give a valid opinion, and don't make biased statements.


Just remember that, and you are halfway there!

Have you started many topics here or in other forums, rather than just doing reviews? I know I don't tend to frequent some of the other forums, so I may have missed your posts.

I find that, even though writing good topics can get a win, writing in some humour as well can make all the difference.

Also, writing long pieces can be detrimental in my opinion, so if you say what you're going to say in about 3 paragraphs then it's less for everyone to read.

The only other piece of 'advice' is, don't post any more messages about not winning otherwise people might get fed up! (everyone does it once, but some people do it a lot!)

This is just my opinion, mind you and I may be going in completely the wrong direction. But good luck anyway, and lets hope you win.
