Smile Amiga Mag Joystic Competitions

Hi Guys,
Congrats on an excellent website. It took me back to my child hood. The reason I came to your website is because I was looking for a particular article that I thought was in Zero. It was a competition where the mag would ask for someone to take a picture of a joystick in a particular place look a prison or a toilet. Well in one issue I sent in a photo of a joystick on a black Rhino at the London Zoo. I would love to get hold of a copy of this article as I do not have a copy of it any more. However, when I looked through your images of Zero I could not see this competition which used to be a regular. Maybe I am getting it confused with another Amiga mag?? Any help would be great.

Thanks

Daniel

It surely is Zero, they were the only mag that had stupid crap like the highest joystick and ask Zero ST etc. Can you remember approximately which issue it would have been in based on the cover etc?

I have a feeling it was the issue with the Viz cover. It was shuch a long time ago. God I feel old. Bring back shuffle puck that's what I say!

P.S thanks for the reply

It's definitely Zero but I don't think it's in that issue.

I'd forgotten how crap this mag was...

oh I don't know it was not that bad. In fact I thought it was great when my picture was printed. I still remember the zoo keeper poohing his pants as he crept up on the sleeping rhino to put the joystick on its back. I must say though that the games they sent me after were rubbish. I think I was hoping for a copy of Robocop 2.
