Hey everyone, I have another screenshot contest this time with a lot of games to give away! I sometimes receive game offers whether I'm interested in them or not, so rather than have them go to waste, you have a chance to win some of them. Most of these aren't top-tier games, they're all games I either already have copies of or aren't particularly interested in, but hopefully some of you out there will enjoy them. All games are digital copies for PC either for Steam or Humble Bundle codes.

RULES:
-Submit an interesting screenshot from any game either by posting in the comments to this post, or else emailing it to [email protected] (external links are fine).
-You can submit a maximum of 3 screenshots per person.
-Only one game can be won per contestant, so as to maximize the number of people who get games.
-You have until midnight EST of Dec. 21st to submit a screenshot. You can try and submit one late, but you may not make it.
-Winners will be announced on Dec. 22nd.
-Winners will get their pick of which game they want until there are none left. So 1st place gets 1st choice, 2nd place 2nd choice, etc.
-If a winner does not claim which game they want within 24 hours of being contacted by email or private message, they will get perpetually bumped in line behind the next person.
-While I think these all will work, since these were all gifted, there's no guarantee that all the games are working, since I can't check them.

TIPS:
Here are some characteristics of screenshots that are more likely to win (note: they probably shouldn't have ALL of these):
+Screenshots that seem to raise a lot of questions
+Screenshots that seem like there's some sort of story behind them
+Impressive action
+Slapstick humor
+Something surreal
+Something I find funny
Some characteristics of screenshots that probably WON'T win:
-ONLY something scenic without anything extra
-Screenshots you can't appreciate unless you're familiar with the game it was taken from, or have a lot of context
-High Scores or kill/death ratios
-Toilet or sex pose humor without something more clever to it
