Following up on my previous 4 posts (round 1, round 2, round 3, and round 4), now we're into round 5 (Jan 9 game). The prizes keep getting bigger!!! Congrats to @Chris Craig and @tlongII for winning round 1 (Dec 3 game) Congrats to @SheedSoNasty and @riverman for winning round 2 (Dec 8 game). Congrats to @TheGoldRanger , @Charcoal Filtered , and @UncleCliffy'sDaddy for winning round 3 (Dec 13 game) Congrats to @SlyPokerDog and @Phatguysrule for winning round 4 (Dec 21 game). For this round we're doing the Jan 9 game against DAL, whoever is the closes to picking the total combined score of the Blazers + DAL wins the 'big' prize, and the next closest wins the 'medium' prize. Tie breakers will be decided by whoever has given me the most LIKES since 11/27. (I don't post a ton, so you may have to dig to find some of my older posts.) The prizes to be given out after the Jan 9th game will be: (1) A framed autograph of Bill Walton (With some awesome old cards) - (2) A framed Larry Steele autograph with cards - Coming up on future games, @SharpeScooterShooter has stepped up and donated some great old memorabilia! He's got a Blazermaina record, '77 Championship 7-11 bottle, bobbleheads, trading cards, and more! We'll be doing at least 2 more rounds in January. You can only win one prize (but you can upgrade if you win future rounds). I'm looking to do a group event to hand out all of these prizes - If timing works out, we may combine the event with the annual Suite that @SlyPokerDog puts on. For those outside of the Portland area, I'll ship you the prizes. Good luck! Let's see your predictions for the Jan 9th game -
Congrats to @Chris Craig for winning the Bill Walton autograph & cards! That is assuming he wants to upgrade from his round 1 winnings of the Gross/Neal autographed poster. Congrats to @Charcoal Filtered for taking second place. Since he previously won an autograph of Kenny Carr, he has the option to 'upgrade(?)' to the Larry Steele autograph. (Let me know what prize you prefer @Charcoal Filtered ) Since we have two previous winners in this round, that means that @OR-84 will be picking up the scraps. Assuming @Chris Craig goes with Bill Walton (duh), @OR-84 will then get the Gross/Neal autograph poster. And depending upon what @Charcoal Filtered choses, @trailblazer18 will win the Kenny Carr autograph or the Larry Steele autograph. Still working on putting that group gathering together to hand out the prizes. @SlyPokerDog and I have been talking about perhaps giving these out at the annual suite event. If you can't make that, I'll ship the prizes to you. We have a few more rounds to go. @SharpeScooterShooter has stepped up and volunteered to give away some awesome old memorabilia. He's got a Blazermaina record (I want that one!), a championship 7-11 bottle (I wonder if it's still okay to drink?), bobbleheads, and more.
