Everyone who makes the grade will be informed by then.

Hoe lyk dit met 'n spanpoging :?:

You can do the reviews in Afrikaans and I'll translate them for you!!

Of course you'll have to send along every game to me once you'd finished it. :wink:

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

Writing casually doesn't equate to writing shìt. I don't make a conceited effort to write perfectly, but you've adequately demonstrated more than on just a few occasions that your English skills really aren't as top-notch as you might think. Tell you what: why don't you, with your English major in hand, prove everyone's assumptions about you wrong by winning yourself a review in PCF above someone else without the same bloated education you love flaunting?

Sorry, I might have missed something, but how is this any different to your usual style of writing?


I'd love to write up something for submission, but I have neither the monster rig to play games in their fullest glory, nor do I have the time to do so. Good luck to everyone who is participating :-)

Why do you not just PM Stacey? Knocking a members way of posting is infantile anyway.

Well I think it isn't just one person that's gonna win...I emailed Stacey a few weeks ago and she replied with this
Everyone who makes the grade will be informed by then.

Yep, it's gonna be more than 1 person.
If PCF reviews 4 games a month, they don't want one person doing half a job on 4 reviews.

Ah, alright. And did that add a droplet of meaning to your pisspool of life? Sure, congrats that you got your reader review, but what you don't realise is that people would respect you so much more if you didn't jump at every opportunity to glorify yourself somehow. You have a limitless aptitude for trying to lift yourself to new and elevated levels in an attempt to gain respect, and yet you're always left in a muddy puddle, ridiculed and shamed. You know as well as I that we needn't even ask anyone else's opinion - the forum is littered with evidence of such.

Sorry, just not feeling it yet. I'm sure you'd be able to describe the feeling pretty well enough though.

On a different note, why not include a few of the better reader reviews as PDF files on the cover DVD? That way there isn't the limit of the magazine as the only creative outlet.
