Default 1ST Annual Clydepepper World Series Raffle ** See Post #48 for All Details

In keeping with the spirit of giving - that is... giving Braves cards away...

Come one, come all to the 1ST Annual Clydepepper World Series Raffle.

THE PLAN:

The Net54 member who comes the closest to guessing the winning and loosing teams in this years World Series will win the prize.

TWO GUESSES PER MEMBER with ONE EDIT ALLOWED. The Tie-Breaker will be the first one received chronologically speaking...

DEADLINE is Friday, October 3rd @ MIDNIGHT ET


**** SEE POST #45 FOR MATCHUPS STILL AVAILABLE *** UPDATED 10/3 9:35PM ET



Entries timestamped @ 12:00 MIDNIGHT will be eligible- but we're using my computer's clock (in GA) so be familiar with your time zones. Don't worry. The site time will match up
.

THE GRAND PRIZE (well, come to think of it, the only prize) ** CHANGE ** Please check out additional prizes listed after the scan.

is the beautiful card shown below delivered free of charge to enhance your collection. The 'winner' will need to PM their mailing address to me once the season concludes.


MEL ROACH.jpg

*** ADDITIONAL PRIZES ADDED ***

Due to the quick response of some of our viewers, I find it necessary to enhance the contest by adding an additional round of competition and prizes:

THE PLAN - PART TWO:
The Net54 member who comes closest to guessing the total number of runs both teams score in the World Series will win all of the Braves cards listed below:

1967 Topps Gary Geiger
1968 Topps Cecil Upshaw
1969 Topps Wayne Causey
1972 Topps Marty Perez
1972 Topps Lum Harris
1979 Xograph- Phil Niekro (similar to Kellogg's)
1979 Xograph- Jeff Burroughs
1988 Score Gary Roenicke
1988 Score Albert Hall
1989 Donruss Andy Nezelek
1992 Stadium Club Mike Heath

This 'tier's rules are the same as the first 'tier'- each member gets two guesses with no editing ruled by chorologicality - I think I just made up a new word - All guesses must be time-stamped no later than NOON Eastern Time, Tuesday, October 21st- the day the Series begins.

Please PM me if you have any questions.

Matthew - I'm sorry but I'll have to take that as your first official guess.

You still have another guess left...and you can also guess for the second round - see the UPDATED PLAN with ADDITIONAL PRIZES.

Default YET More to be WON!!!

I hope that everyone who already made their picks of which team will beat which other team in the Series, checked back and saw the additional cards to be had for coming closest to the total number of runs scored by both teams in the Series.

Well, I am adding still more 'enjoyment' - This time, you will need to guess exactly how many games including the 2 wild-cards, will make up this post season - it can be as few as 20 (all sweeps) or as many as 33. Closest guess win this portion. The deadline for this part of the RAFFLE is Friday, October 10 @ NOON ET - the day of the first NL League Championship Series game.

So - to be clear, the deadline for THIS, the third tier, is actually earlier than the deadline for the previous tier. Please let me know if you don't understand my 'work'.

Now, we all know that there are no Ties in Baseball, but we have one TY in this RAFFLE and he's back representing on the first of two cards the winner of this tier will receive.

1971 Topps- 1970 NL Playoffs - Game #3- Cline Scores Winning Run !

REDS 3 - PIRATES 2

70 NL CLINE.jpg


And also going to the winner of this round, there HAS to be a World Series card given away, right?

1969 Topps - 1968 Series Game #4 - Cardinals 10 - Tigers 1

68 WS BROCK.jpg


As with the previous tiers, members are allowed 2 guesses with no editing and the tie-breaker will again be the time-stamp of entries.

Please be sure to contact me, Raymond 'Clydepepper' Culpepper, if you have any questions or concerns. Should you or any of your fellow Net54Baseball members get caught without the closest guesses, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.

Good Luck & PLAY BALL!!

Default And Finally, the LAST Card to be WON...

For the Net54Baseball member who comes closest to guessing the total number of strikeouts by both teams in the World Series, wins a card that is dear to my heart - as it depicts the very first Major League game I saw on TV:

The Opening Game of the 1963 World Series-

Dodgers 5 - Yankees 2

KOUFAX STRIKES OUT 15

64 63 KOUFAX WS G 1.jpg

This time, members will be allowed ONLY ONE GUESS again with no editing and the deadline for this. the final tier, is at the completion of World Series Game #1.

I do hope everyone enjoys playing along...I'm enjoying coming with this stuff.

Default One More Day to guess WS Match-Up & Win!

For everyone's convenience, I am listing both the guesses already in, and the possible matchups still available. Please contact me via PM if you note an inaccuracy. Good Luck!

REMEMBER- YOU GET TWO GUESSES

Guesses Received to-date
(in chronological order):


Member - winner - loser

BROWN STOCKINGS - BROWNS (this was a 2nd guess)


GUESSES STILL AVAILABLE:

I will try to update this list as quickly as possible.

so you can hedge your 'bet' guess by choosing one of the remaining available matchup choices as your second guess.

WINNER - LOSER

arc2q WSH - LAA

Default Error on my part!! Please read!!

In the original rules set out for this contest I've put together, I stated that no editing was to be allowed.

Well, I have been allowing one edit for members who chose unavailable matchup choices.

I did this for two reasons, first to have as many matchups be winners as possible and secondly, I just forgot.

There still is NO editing on the other 'rounds'

If any of you participating have an issue with that, please let me know. I'm not sure what I can do at this point with a full-scale mutiny on my hands, but I will try to 'ease your pain.'

Thanks for your understanding,
Raymond

Default Last Day for Guesses on Series Team Match-Ups (11 Choices still available):

GUESSES STILL AVAILABLE:

I will try to update this list as quickly as possible.

POINT OF CLARIFICATION- While you can only edit once, you are allowed TWO GUESSES,
so you can hedge your 'bet' guess by choosing one of the remaining available matchup choices as your second guess.

CURRENT AVAILABLE GUESSES ----- Last Update 10/3 9:35 PM ET... DEADLINE: 11:00 PM ET

WINNER - LOSER

STL - DET

SFG - BAL
SFG - DET
SFG - KCR

KCR - WSH
KCR - SFG
KCR - STL

DET - SFG

BAL - SFG
BAL - STL

LAA- STL

Sorry - got there a little late, but remember, there are three more 'rounds' to this raffle thingy.

**** bn2cardz wins the graded 1961 Topps Mel Roach card - as he was the only member to guess two teams that got to the LCS ****
Guesses that have already failed or were never possible:

I'm not displaying the member names on these for obvious reasons.

KCR- DET
KCR - PIT

Tigers in 6

MIL - NYY (twice)
BROWN STOCKINGS - BROWNS (this was a 2nd guess)

THE PLAN - PART THREE:
The Net54 member who comes closest to guessing the total number of runs both teams score in the World Series will win all of the Braves cards listed below:

1967 Topps Gary Geiger
1968 Topps Cecil Upshaw
1969 Topps Wayne Causey
1972 Topps Marty Perez
1972 Topps Lum Harris
1979 Xograph- Phil Niekro (similar to Kellogg's)
1979 Xograph- Jeff Burroughs
1988 Score Gary Roenicke
1988 Score Albert Hall
1989 Donruss Andy Nezelek
1992 Stadium Club Mike Heath

This 'tier's rules are the same as the first 'tier'- each member gets two guesses with no editing ruled by chorologicality - I think I just made up a new word - All guesses must be time-stamped no later than NOON Eastern Time, Tuesday, October 21st- the day the Series begins.

So far, only Mountaineer1999 has made a guess with 49 Total Runs

Please PM me if you have any questions.

THE PLAN- PART TWO - YET MORE to be WON:

I hope that everyone who already made their picks of which team will beat which other team in the Series, checked back and saw the additional cards to be had for coming closest to the total number of runs scored by both teams in the Series.

Well, I am adding still more 'enjoyment' - This time, you will need to guess exactly how many games including the 2 wild-cards, will make up this post season - it can be as few as 20 (all sweeps) or as many as 43. Closest guess win this portion. The deadline for this part of the RAFFLE is Friday, October 10 @ NOON ET - the day of the first NL League Championship Series game.

So - to be clear, the deadline for THIS, the third tier chronologically even though it is called PART TWO, is actually earlier than the deadline for the previous tier. Please let me know if you don't understand my 'work'.

Now, we all know that there are no Ties in Baseball, but we have one TY in this RAFFLE and he's back representing on the first of two cards the winner of this tier will receive.

1971 Topps- 1970 NL Playoffs - Game #3- Cline Scores Winning Run !

REDS 3 - PIRATES 2

And also going to the winner of this round, there HAS to be a World Series card given away, right?

1969 Topps - 1968 Series Game #4 - Cardinals 10 - Tigers 1


THE PLAN - PART FOUR - AND FINALLY, ONE LAST CARD TO BE WON:

For the Net54Baseball member who comes closest to guessing the total number of strikeouts by both teams in the World Series, wins a card that is dear to my heart - as it depicts the very first Major League game I saw on TV:

The Opening Game of the 1963 World Series-

Dodgers 5 - Yankees 2

KOUFAX STRIKES OUT 15

So far only Mountaineer1999 has made a guess with 90 Total Strikeouts

Default One time reminder bump

** ERROR! ERROR! Look Out Will Robinson!

My directions are so confusing, they got me...again.

The deadline for PART 2 - Guessing the Total Runs scored by both World Series Teams is 10/21 before World Series Game #1.

- so the deadlines for PART THREE - Guessing the Total Number of Games Played to make up the Post-Season (which can be from 20 to 43) is Friday, 10/10 at Noon ET.

and PART 4 -Guessing the Total Number of Strikeouts by both Series participants is TUESDAY, 10/21 and the end of World Series Game #1.[/B]

I will bump this thread one last time on October 20 (the day before both remaining deadlines & Mickey's birthday).
