None of the competitions listed here are run by/organised by/promoted by or have anything to do with Microsoft - enter at your own risk. Buyer Beware! If all you have is someone's gamertag you're not going to be able to do much if they rip you off.

Reply to this thread if you are running a competition to help promote your game. However here are some simple rules.

1. Its your job to ensure you comply with any legalities and rules of competitions wherever you live.
2. ONE post in this forum - do not spam any other forums. Your posts will be deleted and you will likely get a ban for spamming
3. Put the details of your competition on your blog and/or in your own games forum and link to it from here
4. Keep it realistic... if your competition looks too stupid, or too hyped (e.g. Up to $50,000 in prizes) we will delete it for spam too
5. No competitions based on percentage of sales - there is no way for anyone to validate this. Find a prize and be specific.
6. Provide some proper contact information - people will take your competition more seriously if you are more than just a gamer tag.
7. We will copy details into this thread and delete your post.

Hi all!

To celebrate the upcoming release of my second Xbox Live Indie Game Kuchibi, I am doing a little Twitter-based give-away, where I give out 3 free pre-paid codes for Kuchibi (participation in the give-away happens now, before release of the game, the actual codes will be given out once the game is released).

Please go here for details:

P.S. The Golden Tangram competition I mentioned in the previous post is over now, the free tokens have been claimed. To ZMan/Mod: As far as I am concerned, you can delete my previous post with the Golden Tangram competition.
