Title: The last 9 Protodeck cards contest
Post by: xela on February 14, 2012, 12:06:27 AM
Hey everyone. I'm sure you guys all know about the Vortex Protodecks in circulation. Allan Hagen has one, I have another, and two belong to an awesome Kickstarter backer Allan S.. There are two different kinds of Protodecks. The two fully completed decks (I have one, Allan has the other), and the incomplete decks with blank faced gaff cards in them (Allan Hagen has one, Allan S. has the other). However, I do have a cache of blank-faced Vortex gaffs remaining and currently I have nine cards left to give away.

That means nine more of you will be able to use blank-faced cards in your magic routines with a Vortex deck.

Getting the last cards is extremely simple. Stay up-to-date with our Facebook: http://facebook.com/aethercards . Every few days there will be a new status update that will give you a chance to win the cards (one is currently taking place). All you have to do is leave a relevant comment and click the "like" button and you're entered to win.

I just picked the winner of the 10th card, Walter Neese. The 9th and 8th cards being given away currently.

As the winner you can request to have it signed, or unsigned.

Enjoy the mini-contest!

Nope, it has an ad card and a gaff card, no blank face.

@Kanped & Addictz: I keep forgetting to send your guys' cards out, not sure why. Email me your addresses again and I'll send them out with a little something extra.

Save yourself the (frankly extortionate) shipping and send it along with the Vortex decks, sure.  I'm not in any rush and you're not going anywhere.  Very much appreciate the thought, though.

Chris, Vortex shipping is being handled only partially by me. Send me the address to contact@aethercards.com. If you want, grab some stuff at my card shop and I'll give you discounted shipping on it too. :)

He just sent out an email with the Vortex update through Kickstarter. The design is on its way to the printer.
