Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ Group Breaks "Pull of the Month" Nominees, May Breaks up Get them in

[Gottabe]

We all know Gforce was the winner in a closely contested race for "Hosting" a break. In an effort to see if how "hosts" relate to Great Pulls, I am going to create a poll, just for the fun of it. As with Mr. 264's polls the monthly winner has bragging rights, sorry there isn't a sash to be awarded
"Borrowing and modifying" some of his guidelines this is how we can do it.

Guidelines:

1) Nominations are group breaks pulls.... 1 per month/group.
2) Nominations must be posted in Group Break forum, and posted by the Host who pulled it and please name the participant who receives it.
3) Pictures/Scans, although not required, are extremely helpful. If you have a video link of the actual pull and it's in a short (5 min or so) I can go through those. If you don't scan or take a picture, be very clear in the thread what you pulled.
4) Remember I am human and will miss some things. (yes, I copied that line)


I hope this about covers it. Let me know what you guys think, even if you don't like the idea. I'll aim for 1 March 09 and get the Feb poll out by the 5th for voting.

This is all intended to be fun and showing off some neat cards.

LMK what ya think,
Gottabe & Gottabe Jr. (yes, 2 Judges )

Sounds fun, but knowing me I will probably forget to post my nominations

Good idea Joe. Does this mean every month that the best Carson Palmer and MJD card that gets pulled will win?

Funny Chris

When in the breaks have we ever pulled a Palmer Auto? 0

We just pick the nominees for the poll. You submit the card/cards you want nominated. Then the PEOPLE'S, pick the actual winner.

Great job, Joe......

I am happy to see someone pick this up...

....and that line is sooooo important....

This includes all sports into one or separate?

It'll include whatever sport you want to nominate a card from..If you are doing multi-sport breaks, as many do, that's fine. Submit the best from the break, not each sport.
We can have the 1/1 Pitcher vs. 1/1 QB vs. 1/1 Point gaurd or 1/1 Goalie.
Doesn't matter. The only seperation to this point will be cost.

1. 1000.00 and below (total product cost in break)
2. 1000.00 and above. NT and Exquisite will have their day

My Hockey break club for Feb., boxes won't be here for my Football one until next week so won't break until next weekend.

I think TB40 basketball group break with the Beasley and Rose autos beeing pulled should get nominated

[crpalmi]

I hope we can nominate more than one but I'd like to throw a few in the ring from our Boxbreakers High End case Break that we did last night (just made the Feb cutoff) so just go with what you feel is appropriate for the poll. We'd be in the high end category for thise break...

Dont forget a certain cut auto from the "regular" feb monthly break Chris.

Yep...forgot this one from the regular (newly named Boxbreakers FB Hobby Club Group Break). Went to Kiansdad if you couldn't figure it out...

[webbgem]

Nice stuff...I think you should add a category for lower end breaks too...they may not get the big cards very often but when they do they should get some recognition. Just what I think anyway.

There were a few other pretty good pulls out of my group break this month but this was probably the best. This went to Patrick (Deantap):

Matt Ryan 2008 SP Rookie Threads Letterman Auto #'d 32/38

[Gforce083]

I'm not sure what can compete with this for the month considering UD is fulfilling these!

2008 SP Authentic Chirography Quad Auto /10 P. Manning/E.Manning/S. Young/T. Aikman

Card was awarded to sgmco!!

WOW! That should be an unbelievable card, and your right, definetely will be tough to top that one G!

[Gforce083]

sgmco just shot me a picture of the card he got from my break....no need to look at that ugly redemption anymore!

[sportsfan614]

Just saw this thread, I was upset when i saw that this card would not qualify for "pack pull of the month". I consider this the Best possible pull from a box that cost less than $100. The card books over $300, and was awarded too Chadb1733.





I understand this is a little bit of a "Risky Nomination", but I'm going to go ahead and post it. Im also want every one to know that me and Hadly have worked out a "pending agreement" (via PMs), and he is fine with how the problem has been fixed. I don't think that negative comments are necessary, since this has been worked out and both of us have moved on. Also just so everyone knows hadly will be in my next group break.

Just to prove that we have worked things out, Im going to go ahead an post a couple of the PMs...

My Message to Hadly...

"Hope you saw my last post on the poll thread...

Check my bucket and let know if you see any thing you like. "


Hadly's Response...


sportsfan614, first and foremost I appreciate your apologetic posts and your willingness to work this out. I think we’re both huge TCC fans and wish to stay in the good graces of all the wonderful traders on this site. I think your heart fluttered the same as mine when I thought that Elway auto was within the realm of possibility.

So, on to the issue at hand…I really like your _________ auto. I’ve never owned a ________ auto and would be willing to forego the cash refund and the spot in the future break if this deal could be worked. I don’t have a current BB Becket to check the bv and only want to check bv because I don’t want to be completely greedy and ask for too much. I did check ebay and they sell for about $__. So if you subtract the $__ cash value you offered in break refund/future spot…it’s about a $__ cash value swing.

Is this reasonable?

Thanks again,
Matt



I only edited the message where there are blanks. Which ever card Hadly wants is his bussiness, and I would apprecate it if there were no negative comments made about this post.


Thanks

[crpalmi]

I'll throw in a couple nominations.

First from the Boxbreakers Hobby Group Break...this was #/10 and went to BAJMurray;
