Mega Contest Results

Allllllllllllllrighty. The Mega Contest results are finally ready. With all the generosity from the dear readers of this blog, I had a whopping 387 entries into the contest from 43 different people. Awesome. I owe thanks to all of you. Many of the top donors who attempted to skew the contest in their favor succeeded. Also, many didn't. Such are the fickle wheels of fortune.

I have 9 prizes to give, so the top 9 get to choose what they want. Below is a copy/paste of the top 25 from the random drawing.

Drumroll? Drumroll.

Congrats, cardhounds, particularly The Junior Junkie and defgav, for not only going 1-2, but also rubbing it in by double-dipping in the top nine. So here's what I'm going to need out of The Junior Junkie, defgav, AdamE, Joe Frecker, Bo, Captain Canuck, and Eric Eckstein: I need you to rank, in order, your prize preferences. I'll send you the highest ranked remaining prize(s) on your list. Also, I'll need you to email me your mailing address (mattmccurryATgmailDOT.com), unless you know I already have it.

Here's a reminder of the prizes.

Package #1 - Vintage
Package #2 - Big Box
Package #3 - Refractors
Package #4 - Inserts
Package #5 - Autos/Relic
Package #6 - 2013 Topps Parallels
Package #7 - Various Parallels
Package #8 - Joey Votto/Barry Larkin
Package #9 - Contest Excess

So again, much congratulations, and thanks to everyone who entered. The prizes will be sent out in blogger-time, i.e., sometime this epoch.

If you're the type of person who needs to see the entirety of the results, find it below.

Also, since this is a card blog, here's a scan of a 1949 Leaf Kent Peterson, for no real reason.

    wouldn't ya know? I comment on the post to say Hi, I found your blog and I like it, not to enter the contest.... and I end up one of the winners.
    Ain't that the way?

    6. 2013 Topps
    4. Inserts
    1. Vintage
    7. Parallels
    2. Big box***
    3. Refractors
    8. Votto
    5. Autos
    9. Reds***

    *** that being said... you don't want to mail those two to Canada. Take your wife out to dinner with the money instead.

    Thanks!

    Cool! My first choice has to be the Vintage, but looks like TJ snatched that up. Otherwise, I'm torn between taking my chances with the Big Box or playing it safe with the Various Parallels or maybe Autos/Relic or Refractors.
    Hmm.. I guess I can't resist the alluring mystery of the big box.

    So I guess my list of choices would be:
    Prize Package #1: Vintage
    Prize Package #2: Big Box
    Prize Package #7: Various Parallels
    Prize Package #3: Refractors/Xfractors
    Prize Package #5: Autographs/Relic
    Prize Package #8: Joey Votto/Barry Larkin

    Oh wait, I just re-read the post and saw I get 2 choices.. sweet! But now I'd feel bad about making you send 2 packages, assuming the box is already stuffed full, plus I don't want to snag all of Adam's Red Sox in the big box. Maybe just give me the various parallels + refractors? What, what did Joe Frecker pick? That could complicate things. Maybe you could send me the box but pluck out a few Red Sox to make room for my 2nd prize and give the Sox to Adam. Though my Red Sox trade bait is very thin thanks to Mark Hoyle, so I do also like getting Red Sox. Man, I'm really overthinking this. Just send me whatever!

    Thanks again!
