January Contest Winners!

Well...was quite the dramatic finish we had anticipated as most got 0 points added with only getting one game right. So there wasn't much movement in the standings. But it did split some ties up and we did have 3 clear winners. Next month we will make sure the final day will be more dramatic like we had wanted it to be.So watch out!! But, here are our three clear cut winners.

Thank you to everyone who entered our January Contest! It was a blast and we look forward to February's! And can't wait for March our one year blogversary!

Congrats to: Mark Loftus

January 20th, 2013 FINAL ENTRY!!

In the biggest risk yet here on the FINAL DAY of our January Contest.... You will need to pick the winner of both games. Each game is worth 5 points if you get them right. If you get both wrong you lose 10 pts. If you get one right and one wrong. You stay the same. If you don't want to risk it. You will earn 3 points for commenting with NO WAY JOSE.  Even if you don't have 5 or 10 points to risk, you can still enter unless you have 0. Which no one does.

The race is close in this contest and should be a great finish today. If there are any ties for any of the top 3 spots, this contest will continue on only for those individuals another day. We do not want to have to random a winner. We want you to control your own destiny!! If there is a tie, we will make sure Day 21 will be the final one.

Who wins these NHL games?

Edmonton @ Vancouver

Chicago @ Phoenix

Entries due by 9:00 pm e.t.

We like to wish all of you good luck and thanks so much for playing! We hope to see this big of a turnout for February!Remember, the more players, the more prizes!

Yesterday someone was wondering what the second and third place prizes were. Well the 2nd and 3rd place prizes will vary every month. This month they most likely are inserts and some if not most are numbered but we haven't completely decided on this yet. It could be something else. But 2nd and 3rd place prizes could be autos, jersey, inserts, team lots, rookie lots, and so on. We are trying to aim for a $10-$20 value range on those prizes. Obviously the big lot is the one to aim for but we are trying to make the 2nd and 3rd place prizes worth a run as well. Sports for those will vary too. Number of cards and what the prizes are per 2nd and 3rd place will differ by month also. 

While we got your attention, we would also like to add that if at the end of 20 days there are any ties for any of the 1st, 2nd or 3rd place prizes...we will play on til their is a standout winner of all three spots. So if the next day someone is in first place without a tie they win and so on. Like we said, we want YOU to control your own destiny! We find it more fair that way than randomizing you off. Day 19 we will start to really challenge you which is why Day 18 is the LAST DAY any newbies can join.

Now onto today's contest,


Today there could be two or more winners. The person who gets the closest WITHOUT going over will get two points. The person who gets it right one will get three. Anyone who goes over or isn't the closest or exact gets one point.

How many rebounds will Kevin Durant get WITHOUT going over?

So today...we will hit you up with two entries. You could earn up to 4 pts if you get your entry in on time! If not you could earn just the two points for the later entry.

January 9th, 2013 (NEWBIE DAY)

NEWBIE DAY
A thought popped in my head yesterday...how do I tempt some newbies and then the recruits! Then aha! Have a Newbie Day! So for today, any new contestant into TODAYS contest will get 10 points if they are right. 5 points for just entering. That will help the newbie get right into the game! Oh..and I did say something about the recruits didn't I? They will get 1 point per person for recruiting a new contestant as long as the contestant gives their answer in comments along with your name if your recruited them.


FOR CONTESTANTS PLAYERS

LA Lakers @ Houston

Entries due by 8:00 tipoff time

BLOGGERS NOTE: There seems to have been some confusion by some on the scoring.  You get 2 points for getting the answer right. You get one point just for entering which also means getting the answer wrong. So everyone who gets the game right...gets 2 points not 3. And if you enter and get the game wrong you just get the one point.

TWIST: Today you will get two points for getting the game right. You will lose the two points for getting it wrong. If you don't want to take the risk and automatically earn one point all you have to comment with is staying.
