Console Addicted

Hi everyone,

I’ve setup MyAchievements yesterday and you can check all ranks and achievements here.

Took me a while to all add those achievements and ranks.

If you haven’t signed up on the forums, do so and start posting to higher your rank!

Hi everyone,

This contest is the 2nd one operated by Console World, but there’s only one Grand Prize: $50 USD for the winner.

As the title says, it’s a Signature of the Month contest, that is you have to create and design your best signature in February to be judged.
The contest starts on 1st February 2010 at 00:00 GMT+00 and ends on 28th February 2010 at 23:59 GMT+00.

Participating
To enter a signature, create a new thread here with the title: “[SOTM Contest #1] ANYTHING YOU WANT GOES HERE”
You can create as many signatures as you want and ask for suggestions or anything else (in a separated thread, here).
However, you must clarify the signatures you are entering. You can only enter up to 3 signatures max.

If you have entered three but want to replace one of them with another one, you may change them before the end date only.

Prize
$50 USD to the winner which are sent through PayPal.

Judging
There are three factors in judging, two judges and a public poll.
[list]
Judges
[*]jo3_sum and I, Pirata Nervo, will award points to each signature, with a scale of 0-5.

Poll
[list]
[*]A public poll is going to be posted as well where users will be able to vote for their favourite entry.
[*]Participants can vote for their own signatures.
[*]Once the poll is closed, the 1st place will get 3 points, the 2nd will get 2 points and the 3rd will get 1 point. (remember that no cheating is allowed)
[/list]

[*] 13 possible points for a competitor to earn. The points are received 2 x 5 from the judges and 3 from the poll.
[*]These points will be summed to the points given by jo3_sum and me and the signature’s owner with the largest amount of points will be awarded the prize.
[*]In a rare case of a tie, the judges, jo3_sum and I, will decide the winner.
[/list]

Yup. We did this. Us, apparently. All 800,000 of us.

SEGA just won’t cut the garbage with their hero Sonic the Hedgehog. Remember how you bought Sonic Unleashed, and hated it? Well, in buying Sonic Unleashed, you added your name to a list of over 800,000 people who bought the game. SEGA liked those numbers. Thus, Sonic Unleashed 2 is born.

Hello everybody!

After some days of hard work, I’ve managed to finish a WordPress theme which combines perfectly with the forum one (as it’s based off it).
From now on, some users from the forums will be posting news here and whenever a new article is posted, a new thread is created on the forums, in the correct category.
This way, you can get the read about the latest news here but you can discuss them on the forums too!

If you’ve got any suggestions, give them please!

Thank you!
