Before posting in any contest, please read the rules - each Contest has its own set of unique rules, normally you can find them in the first post in each thread. Respect the hosts and the other players!

Volunteers: The contest staff will ask for volunteers to pay contests rewards on their behalf, several contests require these rewards to be paid immediately (Less or More, Whose Round Is It, Who Ate the Cake?). For the other contests, rewards must be paid within 8 hours of receipt of funds. Since a new round of that contest cannot be run until rewards are paid, please make reward payments a priority.

No matter where you post, you might just win a bonus prize. :)
Most important, though, remember they're just games and have fun!
To help you get started we've listed our contests here, with a brief description.
