BG Free Stuff Competition VII
What is This?
The BG Free Stuff Competition is a lottery where participants have a chance to win free stuff. So it's pretty self-explanatory. The competition first came about when I realized that a bunch of random games, comics and codes for general digital nerd wares frequently fell into my hands. Since not all of these codes match my tastes or interests I thought it would be a good idea to appeal to Bleachgotei to see if any of it's members would like the swag in my possession. Rather than dole them out to people I regularly speak with however, I thought it'd be much better to offer them up to the entire site in the form of a game of chance. Over time things began to change, instead of waiting for things to conveniently fall into my lap I'd go out of my way to buy gifts specifically to include as prizes, other people began to contribute their own prizes, even the frequency of the competition itself began to change. At first I held one of these every month, but the dwindling state of my bank account made it evident that such a thing could not continue for very long unless I wanted to be homeless. So now this competition is a rare treat for the members of BG, an unexpected surprise, if you will.
What Have You Given Away in the Past?
We've given away everything from comics and game skins to full-blown triple A titles. If you'd like to have a look at the previous competitions here's a list of them, their contributors, and the prizes they offered:

Can I Contribute a Prize?
Of course you can! All you need to do is post here or PM me and I'll make sure that this post is updated with the prize you intend to give away as well as your name so people know who to thank. Prizes can be anything you think the members of BG would enjoy, by no means must it be a video game or video game related. During the last competition it was brought to my attention that a few people would like to offer physical prizes via shipping, this competition will allow the shipping of physical prizes on a trial run. If things show promise during this competition then physical prizes may show up in the future, if not then they may not show up again.
I Have a Question!
Feel free to ask any questions you may have below or PM them to me, I'll put together an FAQ for future competitions.
FAQ
If I've provided a prize for the competition am I still able to enter?
Of course you are, but only for prizes you haven't provided.
How do I Join?
There aren't many requirements for joining, all you need to do is post below to let me know that you'd like to have your name dropped into the hat, these names will then be drawn at random at the end of the month. If you aren't sure about the prizes up for grabs then this gives you plenty of time to scope things out and see if any of them are for you, do your research people. I have to ask that if you wish to join the competition that you be very clear about your intent to join, shitposting does not count as signing up, all you need are three words guys; "Sign me up."

Game codes will be sent through PM, Discord or Skype, if you have a preference then please include that in your post.
