Tony, there is no mention of Game-a-day or Film-a-day on the main page and all your main competitions are under a small heading called 'Win'
Don't you think that maybe you should rename the prize section...what about:
"The Prize Pad" - Here you could split off in to G.D / F.D and W.A.C.
I just think that 'Win' is a bit plain and that you need to make sure your homepage is at it's best before you start worrying about internet advertising.
I would go with 'The Prize Pad' unless anyone can think of a better one!?
Cue: Members - Any Suggestions?!

Ah, the old days. Waiting for a gameboy from SR that was shaped like a brick and just as heavy.
Post from SR took around 2-3 weeks back then, it's improved considerably since, I'm glad to say.
Like others, I too do not buy too many games at the moment. My wife is already complaining about space being taken up by those small plastic recepticles of fun, but sometimes you just have to buy, especially when SR sells some of the older games at stupidly low prices.

Hmmmmmmm...prize pad is better than win but i think a big flashing sign saying "Just sitting there on your fat @ss and typing can win you loads of Free stuff on our website!!" Well it would be original and funny at the same time dont ya think?
You know this place fell apart when I left! I say I get payed to keep this forum alaive ;)
Tony- I emailed SR a few days ago with my prize claim, but you havent updated my section yet. Did you recieve my E-mail? If not, I will send you another. Thank you.
I can say from personal history, joined SR about a decade ago when they were a little company with one room and metal filing shelves, Amiga was the new thing and I was at college. (even worked there a few years ago over Xmas period as Phone Monkey)
But I never really used the web-site, I got the mag and thought "What's the point?", but stumbled in here before Xmas looking for PS2.
I do visit other areas of this site, but have found myself mainly sticking to the forums because you can get genuine opinions on the things we really care about (is a game any good etc) and not rely on magazines that may have an agenda.
The Gameaday thing is cool, the 1st time I won I wasn't expecting it, never occured to me and BANG! Moto Gp thanks very much.
Since then, have won again.
No complaints at all.
And as for Grix and Meka winning a tad more than others, I don't care.
I dont post on here to win anything, it's a bonus for me but I'll continue regardless because it's fun.
I will say thanks to SR though (and this is going to sound like a real creep but it's the truth, credit where credit's due):
I have used SR since that little room with shelves, got my Playstation from there when they were released (with staff discount bonus)and it's ALWAYS my 1st port of call if I want something.
9/10 they have what I want, and sometimes even earlier than expected (Black and White).
The Web site should have more visitors, yes, but I can't say how to get them there. If I did, then I'd work for SR again this time as...say...web person (not that I'm bitter about that interview Tony *s*).
I do know that I recommend SR to mates, simply because if you need it, they'll have it.
End of story.
So, a genuine thanks to SR for a couple of free games (much appreciated and unexpected), and a nice feeling of community on these boards.
Even Sniper with those morose little posts, I'd miss the little fella if he went.
Speaking of which Sniper, you never accepted my Unreal challenge.
Ya big girl's blouse. Now everyone here knows you are a coward and incapable of forming any lasting relationships with a woman.
Clan or no Clan, if you don't show up, you go get shown up.
Yaboo to you.
(Trying to wind him up to accept my challenge in a friendly manner)

Why not replace the discussions link with a random link, or even a random number. Everyone likes randomness.

I guess neither of you need to actually "buy" many games these day. But I expect the competition is hotting up. Maybe we should monitor your "win rates".
Grix - really a lot of people only come to the site to buy. I wish more of them would hang around for more.

I would buy more if I was sans wife. But I don't want to be, so I'll stick to just a few purchases :-)

I would buy more if I was sans wife. But I don't want to be, so I'll stick to just a few purchases :-)
