We have a winner!!!

Congratulations to Jimmy from prophet got it for his winning submission. He got an amazing 3 correct out of only four entries!

We have a tie for second place... Mike from BA Benny's Baseball Card Buffet and Chris from Nachos Grande each guessed two correctly. They were the first two submissions to the contest, so I figured guessing two correctly would be fairly easy. Turns out only ONE other contestant even guessed one correctly. Chris Hoskin correctly chose one out of his five submissions, so he will get a prize as well.

Prizes!!!

Since I am a fan of fantasy baseball drafts, here is the way it is going to work:

Draft Order:
1. Jimmy
2. Jimmy
3. Chris (fan of Reds)
4. Mike (BA Benny's)
5. Mike (BA Benny's)
6. Chris (fan of Reds)

7. Chris Hoskin

- Jimmy will get first pick from the prize cards listed a few posts ago (the three MCG code cards count as one card).
(Please submit an email with your top TWO choices. Don't forget to include your mailing address)

- Chris (fan of Reds) will get his top choice of the remaining cards (He had the earliest entry!) (Please submit an email with your top SIX choices. Don't forget to include your mailing address)


- Mike (BA Benny's) will get his top choice of the rest. He will then get his next highest choice of the remaining cards. (Please submit an email with your top FIVE choices. Don't forget to include your mailing address)


- Chris (fan of Reds) will get a second card of his chosing.

- Finally, Chris Hoskin will get to choose his prize. (I'll let you know what's left, and if you don't want that, we'll figure something out.)


Thank you to everyone who entered, and I will be in touch soon to see if we can work out some trades!

Enter My Contest!!!

I will make it worthwhile, I promise! If I get two more entries, I am adding 3 MCG (unused) code cards to the pool. That's not all, but until I get a couple more of you to enter...

Oh, yeah. did I mention that everyone who has sent in a contest submission so far gets a FREE MCG code. (shoot me an email, and I will send you the code.) There is a catch... You have to tell me what you got.

It pays to enter early.



Contest Update...

The contest entries are trickling in slowly. Maybe pictures of the prizes will help draw some more entries. A couple more entries, and I will up the ante.

Shiny Golden Jackie!

Attn: Mark Aubrey
I have hunted high and low for your package that I owe you. No luck. So send me your want list and I will do some filling before the holidays!

LOST... The Retro Card Set

I was going through some older files, and I stumbled across an unpublished LOST card. I know. The series is over. I need to move on... BUT I CAN'T!

PRP LOST - #63 The Man From Tallahassee

Design based on: 1964 Topps Stand-Ups #39 - Harmon Killebrew

  

Contest Time...

I couldn't get the blood to spurt realistically enough on my submission in my favorite contest, so i ended up missing out on the fun. I really need to do something to get me back to blogging. What could be better than a contest of my own? Well, how about a contest that helps me complete my 2010 Topps Series 1&2 insert sets???

I have had some free time on my hands lately, so I have finally figured out what I need to complete the insert sets. The list is a little long, unfortunately. While I am missing quite a few cards, what I do have is a boat-load of extras up for trade!

Here are the rules:

1. Send me an email at travis@punkrockpaint.com with the subject line "Contest"
2. List between UP TO FIVE cards from my 2010 Topps Insert Want List that you are willing to trade. (You do not need to submit a list of what you want in return. You MUST own the cards you list AND be willing to trade them. You are NOT obligated to complete any trade, but please submit in good faith.)
3. I have chosen twenty cards from my want list at random. The winner will be the contestant that offers the most of the randomly selected cards out of the five cards they submit. Tie goes to whoever submitted first.
4. All submissions must be received by November 19th, 2010 11:59 PM (Pacific)
5. Of course, I will be willing to trade for any of the cards on my want list (the more the better). Please submit those via separate email or comment.

What can you win?

Here are the prizes:

TIER ONE (with one to four entries)

1st Place- Your choice of ONE of the following (pics of the prizes will be posted soon):
for those who like vintage goodness...
     1972 #510 Ted Williams MGR (condition: Less than Great)
     1978 #473 Rookie Outfielders (featuring Gene Richards! oh, and Andre Dawson too)
              (condition: Better than Bad)
     1956 #72 Philadelphia Phillies Team Card (I believe it is version B, with team name to the left)
              (condition: Surprisingly Swell - INCLUDES AUTOGRAPH!!! Apparently, someone named "Robert"
              owned this card in the past and inscribed their name on the back.)
     1955 Bowman #65 Don Zimmer RC (condition: Lovingly Creased - Corners will not be a danger to
              toddlers.)
