To add to my excitement for opening 388 Miscellaneous packs , I figured I'd pull together a last minute contest to make it interesting. Winner will get 10 autos of my choice from 2010 Press Pass Football (I'll include a few good decent ones too, so not just scrubs).

THE CONTEST:

Contest as follows, the person guessing the closest on the following questions will win. I will use the difference between your guess and the actual results for each category. I will add all the categories together. Whoever has the lowest score will win. I will need all entries in by 9:00 ET tonight (I may start breaking before then but will not even be closed to being done).

Categories-
1.) How many autos will I pull?
2.) How many GU will I pull?
3.) How many numbered cards will I pull?
4.) What will be the lowest #'d of a a card a pull (ex 1/1, /10, /25, /50).

For #1 and #2, the actual difference between your guess and the actual will be used for the results. For #3 and #4, the difference between your guess and the actual will be divided by two when totaling the results.


SOME MORE INFO:

A few other hints....these were loose packs that were ordered online so there's a decent chance they may be pack searched for the GU cards. I have already opened one lower end pack lot with zero hits.

Here is the link where I will be breaking:

Will it be live on blogtv or ustream, or will it be an old school text break?

Posted by: NYMETSJETS Sep 1 2011, 05:36 PM

Haven't decided but may be old shool (with pictures as I go). If wife goes to be early, I might do some on camera too. Maybe I'll pour her an extra glass of wine with dinner .

Sorry guys, entries are cut-off at this point.

Posted by: NYMETSJETS Sep 4 2011, 01:09 PM

Totals are as follows 2 Autos / 9 GU's / 19 #'d Cards / #'d 50

Looks like the winner is Braves4life with 2/3/49/50 and a low score of 21! Looks like the key was guesing the lowest #'d card being /50. I think I was 2nd with my guess with a 23 . Congrats.
