It wasn't until I was looking at the Carrie avatar that I realised and started to reflect.
It only seemed like yesterday, that a fellow member PM'ed me about a little site in OZ, full of collectors. Though, I found it hard to beleive anyone collected cards in OZ anymore
I was hesitant at first, as being a member of Beckett, there were just too many idiots on-line and the "beef" people would dish out was something I didn't want any more of. especially, seeing as I coped my fair shre, just for being myself and being active.
After scoping it out, I decided to join
Next thing you know, it was a pretty fun site be a part of (except for Richo's constant Swans slurs to me ) and still I remain.
Helping many members here break their exquisite virginty as one put it
Helping their punting skills
Admiring the lovely cards and goals people set out to complete.
And most importantly, learning a bit too in the process.
Anyway, to mark this occasion down, lets do a contest!
Never done one before, so should be fun.
Seeing as I have helped many on here to obtain their first Exquisite card ever, why not again
As part of the prize (just making this up as I go along, and it is late, so bare with me) will be an Exquisite card!!!! And i'll throw in some nice game used of a " recent championship player" and "MVP award winner".
Now, what to do?????? :-k
O.k, the million dollar question is
"How Many Exquisite Baksetball Cards do I have in Hand and Own?"
Simple Rules, 1 Guess each and closest wins.
Now, in the event on a dead heat (that is 2 people guess the amount or 2 people get as close to the number equally) I will just flip put the 2 names in a hat here and pick out a winner.
Hows that sound?
Oh, to be fair for everyone, I will allow time and competition closes end of Sunday.
Congrats Mikey! Glad to have you as a member as well, and being a fellow Shaq collector- i think you do have the best maildays. Its also been great to send and recieve Shaqpacks with you!
My guess- 250
