Here's one thing you will always know about contests: laws do not want you to have them. Getting even a U.S.-only contest going is a royal pain in the ass that involves filing with certain states if you want to offer prizes with a value over a certain amount. The amount of red tape is fucking unbelievable if you want to go international with these things. Half the time when I've done giveaways like this I'd go small scale and just sail under the radar. If you actually have an official-type contest and all your i's must be dotted and your t's crossed, this is the result.
 
It's not because GB hates Canada or anyplace else. Contests are the most infuriating thing, period. Giving fun stuff away is practically illegal.

I have a tall bookcase for current-gen stuff, choice classics, and other games that I periodically go back to or that just look nice faced out (like that Planescape Torment box!). But if your collection gets too large for general display, you need to either cull it, box it, or do as the barbarians do and stick the discs in a binder or something. If you're worried about keeping stuff fairly accessible, find shallow boxes so you don't have to stack things 20 deep, order them to whatever scheme you like, and then stack 'em somewhere where they tetris in nicely.
 
Do a nice enough job on the bookshelf, and random thieves who bust into your place looking to steal your 360 will walk right past them. They will however steal Zelda for the Wii. But not your Wii. Criminals are bright!

Oh well, at least there's plenty of time for games!
