All right y'all, let's see how last night's game shook out.

Bucks lost. They had 49 at half, 75 after 3, and 99 at game end. Winning combo is 959. And our first winner is... :drumroll:

Thanks! Since I was lucky enough to go to several playoff games and got several of the T-Shirts already I choose to give it to @riverman if he wants it both because his was the next number sequentially and because of his recent good news about his heart.

HAHAHA. Somehow I feel like this is going to end up going through every forum members hands.. Thankfully not literally.


On the serious you guys are awesome! And has me thinking....

I have alot of shirts I cant fit into from games... some are duplicates even, brand new.

Ill let this game end and then Id like to offer them up to people who are out of state and can never attend a game first and then move in to locals if I still have any left.

River is great in that we have many long distance fans who don't get to experience the games, but all be damned if they are not the best fans the Blazers have. How hard must it be to be a fan of a team you cant ever really see live without taking a vacation, but still support them on a daily basis and interact with the local fans?

People like @bodyman5000 and 1 @BlayZa @crandc and I know many many more.

Ill take this thread over for @PtldPlatypus once his game is over and see who didn't win and go from there. In the mean time Ill get a count of how many I have. I'm pretty sure its close to double digits. They are fairly plain shirts, but at least you could say they came straight from the Moda and not some store. :)

I would list @EL PRESIDENTE too, but that dude rolls in dough I think and can afford to get to a game whenever he wants, lol.
 
I'm out of town, so I don't really have the ability (or inclination) to do all my nifty screen shots, but my quick review of last night's Raptors- Bucks Box score tells me that the Bucks had 50 at half, 76 after 3, and 94 at game end. 064 is the winning combo, which appears to belong to @Wade Garrett. Congratulations--you win that sweet Blazer hat!

Gonna have to wait for NBA finals game 1 to find out who gets the bobblehead. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it!!

Alright y'all--it's about time to find winners for the swag contest. I decided that in order for the winner selection to be completely random and transparent, I would have to find a way to make it dependent on a future event, and not dependent on me. So here's what I came up with.

First, I had to identify the entrants. Excluding myself, Sly, and people who specifically said they weren't interested, here are the people who posted in this thread.
@42N8Bounce, @andalusian, @BBert, @BlazerWookee, @BLAZINGGIANTS, @Bob Dobalina, @BonesJones, @BoomChakaLaka, @BrianFromWA, @Chris Craig, @crandc, @Darkwebs, @dviss1, @GrandpaBlaze, @GriLtCheeZ, @H.C., @HailBlazers, @Hoopguru, @hoopsjock, @jonnyboy, @KeepOnRollin, @kjironman1, @maxiep, @Orion Bailey, @PCmor7, @Rhal, @riverman, @rotary111, @Shaboid, @SheedSoNasty, @SIeepwalker, @SlyPokerCat, @SportsAndWhine, @TBpup, @theprunetang, @Titan, @tlongII, @TorturedBlazerFan, @trailblazer18, @twobullz, @UncleCliffy'sDaddy, @Voodoo, @Wade Garrett, @yuyuza1,

Now, in the OP, I mentioned that additional entries could be earned, up to 10 more per person, by posting in the forum: one additional entry for each 20 posts. Here are my counts relating thereto:
View attachment 26260

So, with 324 entries, I basically tripled that figure to give each "entry" three 3-digit numbers between 000 and 999. Here is the randomized allocation of 3-digit figures each entrant received.

View attachment 26261

So, all that given, how do you win? It will be determined by the last digit of the losing team's score as of the end of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters of the next 3 NBA playoff games. So we won't know who wins each item until each game is over.

For example, if we had been using last night's Bucks-Raptors game, we would look first to see who lost--it was Milwaukee. Then we'd look at their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter-end scores, which were 55, 81, and 102. So that would mean that entry 512 would win the swag, which would belong to @andalusian.

Now, there are 28 possible outcomes which have no winner (I have them saved); if one of those pops up, we'll look at the winning team's 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter. In the unlikely event that there is still no winner, we'll just carry over to the next game.

Tomorrow's ECF game 5 will determine who wins the t-shirt
Saturday's ECF game 6 will determine who wins the hat
Either ECF game 7 (if it occurs) or NBA finals game 1 (if no ECF game 7) will determine the winner of the bobble-head.

Good luck to all entrants!!

Can this be put into the OP?

As if the forum games and Sly's furriner fans giveaway weren't enough, we've got more swag for y'all, just for being you.

As with Sly's giveaway,
prizes include:

  1. A Lillard bobble-head.
  2. A Blazer hat.
  3. A t-shirt just like the ones they'll be handing out at our first playoff game on Sunday.
Wanna be entered in the drawing? Simple. Post once in this thread, and you're entered. If you're a new poster, even better--that'll get you an extra entry.

Want more chances to win? Just post more. We want to reward engagement, so every 20 posts between now and the end of the Blazers' playoff run will get you another entry (max of 10 per person). No post padding--and I'll be the sole judge of what qualifies as such, so don't test me.

Also...I'd love to be able to take the playoffs off from editing posts, so if you want to win, I'd suggest avoiding personal attacks. Just could get you disqualified altogether.

So join up, enter in, post lots, and be good. And good luck to all.

Edit: By request, here is the matrix of entry combinations assigned at the conclusion of the entry period.

My apologies for not handling this earlier...but it's bobblehead time.

Game 1 of the finals went to the Raptors, so the Warriors will determine our winner.

49 at the half, 81 after 3, and 109 at game end: 919 is our winning entry. Looking at the handy matrix our winner is...

@Shaboid--congratulations! YOU are the winner of an exclusive Damian Lillard bobblehead! Please contact @SlyPokerDog to make arrangements to collect your prize.

And with that, I'd like to conclude this end of season giveaway game, and thank everyone who participated. I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did.
