I'm giving away 4 decks of cards to celebrate my one year anniversary. Everyone is eligible. ~~US shipping will be included. International, I just ask for you to pick up shipping.~~ edit- worldwide shipping will be included.
Nurul did this a few months ago. I thought it was pretty cool, so I decided to do the same. My anniversary is May 21st

This is going to work pretty much the same way Nurul's did.
Pick a card, any card except jokers. My dare to everyone is to pull out your favorite deck. Pull a random card, and go with it (not mandatory). Post your card here by May 21st, 8pm EDT(no pic needed). You may edit your choice up until I close the contest with a post. Any edits after that will be disqualified. I will announce the winner that night (providing no emergencies on my part).
I've already drawn a card, and took a picture of it. If more than one person picks the same card. I will draw names from a hat (the original random.org).

How will you know I'm not cheating- you won't. You'll have to trust me. I want everybody here to be eligible

Why am I doing this? I want to give back to you guys/gals. I've enjoyed reading a gazillion post (almost), and met a lot of great people here.

I was able to procure a few decks from Jackson's Sherlock Holmes project. The winner will get the complete standard 4 deck set. Good luck to everyone.

How kind/fun of you! Sure why not, those are fairly good odds I guess. Randomly from 'favorite' deck, huh? Tough call, but here was my pick.

Mada257 · « **Reply #2 on:** April 08, 2014, 11:25:44 PM »

Thanks so much for being willing to do this. As a consistent lurker, I've learned a lot from your posts. I went with the whole random card from favorite deck, and I got.... Queen of Clubs.
Thanks again!

8 of diamonds. I shuffled my whispering imps deck multiple times, and gave it a few cuts and then had a friend give me a random number to count down to. I think that is as random as I could have done it.

Awesome contest Rob, and nice throw in Jackson! Since the contest is for some of Jackson's decks, the card should probably be picked from a Jackson deck.

9 of Diamonds randomly drawn.

I would pull from a Jackson deck if I had one but I don't yet.

So I'm pulling from my deck that no one's probably ever seen or heard of before! Jack of Clubs for me.

HandSkillz · « **Reply #15 on:** April 09, 2014, 01:35:15 AM »

Ok, funny thing, I'm editing to change my card, because just as I posted my original pick (was Jack of Clubs), maggock literally posted that card...it's like...i knew it was going to be drawn.

anyways, my new pick is actually..5 of hearts!

Thank You Both, Rob, and Jackson Robinson, for making this a dream deck set!

I've pulled my Eight of Hearts from my first prototype deck (code-named Harthaven); which I have to say is my current "favorite" deck because I've been working on it every day for weeks!

The attached picture is the only peek I've given out so far, for what will eventually be my first Kickstarter project.

With a last name like "Hart," I'm glad I pulled a "Heart" for this contest!

You were right. After going back and crossing out already picked cards

Unofficially what's left is: A♢(Ace of Diamonds), 4♧(Four of Clubs), 5♤(Five of Spades), 6♡(Six of Hearts), 7♤(Seven of Spades), 10♤(Ten of Spades) K♡ (King of Hearts) and K♤(King of Spades).

My new card is the 10♧ (10 of Clubs)

EDIT:
Not sure if pips are showing up (typing them on my phone)that's why I use parentheses. I dont think any of you are dumb.

For any who are interested, I found the one piece deck: http://global-fantasy.blogspot.com/2011/12/one-piece-x-panson-card-game.html

I didn't see it when I clicked through. Is it the actual deck for sale, or just images of the deck?

Sorry posted the wrong link, here is where you can buy them: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10163877

I actually already ordered one, me and my wife love one piece.

A for effort, D for timing - Shebhnt posted that already!

Got this in the mail yesterday.

Only a few days left. If you haven't picked a card yet. Get to it.

AvantCarde · « **Reply #105 on:** May 14, 2014, 12:56:00 AM »

King of Spades!

Marcus · « **Reply #106 on:** May 14, 2014, 08:28:00 AM »

Alright. My spider parts are tingling, as Louis Litt so astutely put it. I say 2 of Clubs.

Rob Wright · « **Reply #107 on:** May 19, 2014, 01:13:40 AM »

Only a couple days left.

A little hint......You only have to pick one card out of 52

rjtomlinson1977 · « **Reply #108 on:** May 19, 2014, 03:34:57 AM »

5 of Spades (if it hasn't been picked yet)

I'm giving away 4 decks of cards to celebrate my one year anniversary. Everyone is eligible. ~~US shipping will be included. International, I just ask for you to pick up shipping.~~ edit- worldwide shipping will be included.
Nurul did this a few months ago. I thought it was pretty cool, so I decided to do the same. My anniversary is May 21st

This is going to work pretty much the same way Nurul's did.
Pick a card, any card except jokers. My dare to everyone is to pull out your favorite deck. Pull a random card, and go with it (not mandatory). Post your card here by May 21st, 8pm EDT(no pic needed). You may edit your choice up until I close the contest with a post. Any edits after that will be disqualified. I will announce the winner that night (providing no emergencies on my part).
I've already drawn a card, and took a picture of it. If more than one person picks the same card. I will draw names from a hat (the original random.org).

How will you know I'm not cheating- you won't. You'll have to trust me. I want everybody here to be eligible

Why am I doing this? I want to give back to you guys/gals. I've enjoyed reading a gazillion post (almost), and met a lot of great people here.

I was able to procure a few decks from Jackson's Sherlock Holmes project. The winner will get the complete standard 4 deck set. Good luck to everyone.

8pm edt tonight according to the 1st post which I quoted here for ya.

Hey!

Is it too late for me to change my card to the one in the attached picture?

O.K. I'm kidding...

But I wish I had thought of it sooner!

Rob Wright · « **Reply #114 on:** May 21, 2014, 05:52:59 PM »

Only a few hours left. Make your picks by 8 pm edt.

I will not be home from work until after 8. The winner will be announced between 9-12

By the way Will. Your card above would not be a good choice. It would have 51 losers, and majority would rule.

CthulhuWho1 · « **Reply #115 on:** May 21, 2014, 06:16:20 PM »

So, even if I don't win the decks, I'm glad I'm sticking with the Eight of Hearts form my own first deck (that seems to be taking forever for me to complete!).

Thank you to everyone who played.

And the winner is...........................

8 of diamonds. I shuffled my whispering imps deck multiple times, and gave it a few cuts and then had a friend give me a random number to count down to. I think that is as random as I could have done it.

Congratulation John!
Send me a message with your address, so I can get these sent to you.

Good on you John!

And Thank You to Rob, Jackson, and The Playing Card Forum for running this contest too!

My Internet connection was down all day today while Time Warner was working on it, and wanting to read who won this contest was bugging me until I finally got on-line moments ago.

At least it gave me more time to keep working on my own first deck while waiting to get back on-line!

Thanks Again for a fun ride with this amazing contest!

LOL, I double checked your order I manually put in and sure enough my shipping software autofilled a Hounds Brick instead of 1 deck.

Don't worry about sending it back. Just spread the Baskervilles love around a bit if you want.
