Title: Mana deck is MINE!
Post by: Don Boyer on January 05, 2012, 10:57:23 PM: I was picked! I won Pick-A-Card #3! They're sending me a deck! I didn't pick the card, but only four people did - I was one of the eight who won the post-pick raffle.

Sweet!

Post by: Don Boyer on January 05, 2012, 11:03:07 PM: Sure. But I think I have to wait like the rest of you.

BTW I don't think I was the only winner here. I spotted Xmetal and Fanofyankees13 on the list, too.

Post by: moonexe on January 06, 2012, 06:15:01 AM: I didn't even see the list, but I just looked, and I do recognize Don's name. ::)
I don't know any of the other names, though. Let's see if they'll come here and tell us.
It's not the first time someone from here wins something cool, and it's always nice to see it happen. ;)

Post by: Paul Carpenter on January 06, 2012, 10:16:34 AM: I also won a deck in the random draw. Honestly don't think I've won anything of note before in my life. Very excited, it's one of the decks I'm most looking forward to.

Post by: Don Boyer on January 06, 2012, 10:40:28 AM: I think we're in a second drawing with the other winners - there was something about getting the deck early, or getting a brick, or something - I can't remember what. Do you?

You will be entered into the raffle draw next week along with all the past contest winners for a chance to get your signed Mana deck in advance before the rest of the world!

The best I've done in a contest so far, as far as big contests go, would be in the '70s. DC was running a contest where you had to clip tickets with letters on them from the editorial page and collect them to spell certain words. The winners were placed in a drawing. First prize was a walk-on role in the (then-under-production) Superman movie; 50 second prizes were a book, "The Secret Origins of DC Super Heroes". I won the book.

All in all, I've been having a pretty sweet year-plus. 8)

Post by: moonexe on January 06, 2012, 04:56:21 PM: A signed deck before everyone else... Good luck guys! ;D
The Mana deck is also one of my most anticipated decks. If it weren't for the Artifice, it'd have literally no competition for me. ::)
My card was something like 7 of diamonds or jack of hearts, I can't remember for sure.
