Unbelievable what one post from Paddy can achieve. :roll: :lol:

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 21 Aug 2007, 18:39

It's the "Wak" effect ... :lol:

Post by **ctrlsteef** » 21 Aug 2007, 18:41

I only I could apply my Ctrl effect to it, perhaps the forum would run a bit faster then. :lol:

*mumbles* crap......slow.........loading........stupid.....

The only "Ctrl effect" I can think of is successfully banning yourself from IRC and you might not want to try applying that again ;) :roll:

It's on Shacknews too

Paddy's screenshot overlay pic is becoming famous :lol:

No link to us though ... :(

Post by **skipclarke** » 21 Aug 2007, 20:41

Paddy needs to put the logo and website name on thatpic. They are linking to our/his pic.

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 21 Aug 2007, 20:45

Gimmy five mins ... done ...

Post by **skipclarke** » 21 Aug 2007, 21:04

I see it's done. Very nice.

I don't see anything in the pic :?:

Maybe they stopped linking it ?

The WSGF, Paddy's screenshot (complete with logo), the site, and the URL were featured on G4's Attack of the Show segment, "The Loop":

We have 2100+ diggs, and should be #5 on the front page now. But, we're no where to be seen. Anyone know the inner-workings of Digg?

Post by **ctrlsteef** » 22 Aug 2007, 07:48

My guess is that it's a daily top 10 or something and we got dropped from that top 10 at midnight?

This is all good press. It also should help in getting Bioshock and hopefully other games fixed.
