:takeit:

 

Wait, that is not how this works is it?

 

doh!

 

Ok, since Andy is a semi decent guy...

 

I would like to donate a Mystery Big Box o raw DC BA Horror.

 

A really big box.

 

And a vial of Action 1 chips.

I would like to donate something.

I'm a bit ignorant on the details, though. Do we mail the items to you (thirdgreenham) so you can mail them to the winner(s)?

-Sorry, I've never participated in one of these contests before.

 

-David

 

Nope. You just wait until someone claims your prize and mail it directly to them.

 

Thanks. I'll dig up something to donate today.

 

Another question - I see from the original post there will be first, second, third, and last place prize winners.

More than 4 prizes have been donated so far. How does this work?

 

# of winners will equal # or prizes, at least that's how it's worked in the past. 1st place picks first, etc, etc, etc.

That's not how it worked last year, I can't remember how it worked exactly but I know the first few winners got multiple picks.

I looked it up after I asked. Last year, it worked just like stanley1883 said.

 

Official 2013 CGC Green Eggs Grading Contest Prize Thread

 

So how does it work? The person who comes in 1st get 1st choice, the 2nd place contestant gets 2nd choice, etc...?

 

Yes, if I have 20 prizes, the top 20 finishers get these prizes. 1st place picks first, 2nd place picks second, and so on.

 

The booby prize, for last place, will be something that isn't pictured/mentioned here. (thumbs u

I always appreciate the time and effort put in by Thirdgreenham and Scako in running fun things like these contests. :foryou:

 

To get this thread back on to page one, I will donate a set of Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers # 1 to 8.

 

The print editions are all over the place but if people want details I can post them. I will post a picture of the set in a couple of days when I get a chance as well.
