The win-a-wallet photo contest ran for two weeks and is now closed. While it started strong with several emails / day for the first couple days, only two people actually followed the directions. I even took the time to suggest simple interpretations - easy to do - to those who sent it photochopped or collage entries, and noone followed through. Too bad for you folks!

So to the two people who submitted proper entries - Joe and Chas - you both should head over to my etsy store and pick your Atari wallet!

Watch my twitter feed on Thursday morning for a one-day twitter-only wallet give-away.

The catch? The winner must give the wallet away as a gift!

The rules? Not until Thursday…

In the spirit of looking at things differently, I’m looking for people to “see” Atari game titles in the real world. Of course you’re not going to see an example of real-world Missile Command in your daily life (not everyone gets to visit MIT Lincoln Labs - great place, very cool. I hope you like the Missile Command wallet Marc!) so I’m encouraging wordplay on the titles. What do I mean?

- Perhaps photograph a self-obsessed security personnel.
(Vain guard)

- Take a big letter D and photograph it against the front of your car.
(D - fender)

- Work at the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority? Take a picture of yourself at the main controls.
(MassHole Command)
Seriously. MassHole is a common term for drivers in Massachusetts. People drive like psychotic meth-fueled thugs up here.

- Draw, build, or smoke signal your idea.

-Photoshop entries will not be counted.
