I am in again...Also if you really want to be fair the more spots you buy the more chances you should have on the extra hits. I am happy with whatever happens. I was fine with the old way where everyone get a hit before we did a drawing for the extra hits. How I look at it, I only see to 100% fair ways to distribute the extra hits is put all the names of the teams that are picked (in a hat or Random.org) and whatever team comes up gets the hit or sell all the extra hit on ebay then use the money for next month. Down side to selling them on ebay is that make more work for you and you do more then what you should do know.

The reason why I say per team and not member is if one of the members friends wants to get in on the break that isn't a member he should have the same for the extra hits as anyone else does. I know a few months ago this was a factor that was never pointed out. If I am right DD316 had a friend that he got a team for and one of the new members had a spot thought a freind untill he got an account on here. I didn't vote because I got more then my fair share of hits. I even try to get the group to avoid boxes the over loaded with hits from the teams that I have. Plus (like batman said) no matter what the group does one member will not be 100% happy. I know I missed out on a few cards I would love to from the drawings but how I look at it is "I didn't pick the spot so why get mad about some getting a nice card."


QUOTE(Luke2411 @ Dec 10 2008, 10:45 AM)
This has been a question since the beginning of this break and the decision was made that since everyone pays for their team, EVERYONE should have an opportunity to win all the un-claimed cards.

This hasn't happened yet, but it may very well be one day that we pull a super high dollar card that does not belong to a team that someone purchased.  It's not fair that because RGBII won the last drawing for the Johnny Whozit GU card he is excluded from the drawing for the Nolan Ryan Auto (since no one ever buys the Astros).  He paid his money just like everyone else.  That's why we went with random.org in the first place so that everyone would have an equal chance with each card.  However, I think random.org sucks and hasn't been random at all.  Every month it seems certain members get left out of the drawing while others get all the cards.  So, someone suggested we move to a system that allows everyone to have a chance at all the cards but those with less hits have a greater chance.

Boxes looks to be a fun mix. I think Masterpiece is Yankee box, at least it was last year. I heard that it wasn't year but I never check on it. I am cool for whatever...just along for the ride boat.gif


P.S. jeremy....did you already ship off the cards yet??? I was going to get with you about the Stewart helmet. I know you and Slugger are ranger fans and thought that one of you 2 might want it...I have 2 of them and don't need it.

I agree with this, one entry in the drawing per team purchased.

I need verification from batman, poordude, and slugger that they intend to be in the break this month.

I also need payment from those listed on the first page in green, and payment from the above members if they indeed plan to participate this month.


If everyone verifies and pays with me, we will have $575.00.

Based on the suggestions, I'll see what Shawn can get us this for:


08 Masterpiece
08 Bowman DP&P
08 Allen & Ginter
08 UD Sweet Spot
08 UD SP Authentic
08 Donruss Threads
08 UD Premier

The suggestion I sent above included 08 Sweet Spot rather than Timelines. So, I made the change in the above post.

I'm going to pm the remaining unverified members today to find out if they are still going to participate.

Shawn quoted me $592 on the boxes which is about $20 more than what we have. Any suggestions?
