If I missed out again, Im gonna be disappointed. This is the 3rd free break ive tried to get in on and probably the last. Im gonna have to lose my internet since I lost my job a year ago. I like being on this site, and im gonna miss it.

I'd either...

A) Call Obama
B) Vote for Mitt
C) Both options A and B





Seriously though? Was going to spend your final moments you ha Internet on FCB, enter a free drawing, get name picked, pull awesome free card, get the card, sell the card, take funds and pay for more Internet to stay on FCB?

Lol sorry, not laughing at your personal situation but this is just insane man. You should spend your final moments on the Internet looking for a job and not on a LONG shot to win a card for free to pay for more Internet.

To the guy that got fired, no labor laws in your part of the world?

Edit: Also not sure who No1CJCollector is a fan of?

I hope that list at the top is not the final list, I posted ahead of some of those people. I can't make the live even either, my dart league mandatory meeting is tonight at the exact same time. I'm new and kind of confused by the process here, I'm very active in collecting on YouTube but do very little on boards due to some bad experiences elsewhere. I hope to win something and broaden my collecting experience to include this board, I'm sure my 1500+ subscribers would like to see what this board has to offer. Thanks again for the contest, good luck to everyone!

Let me throw another post into the hat. Did I mention I'd like a slot as much as the others? If not, good luck to everyone.

I'll take a slot :)!

I really want a spot in this please!!! :)

I'd like a spot if possible :)

can I be added to the giveaway list? :p

Add me to the party

With all I've done for this site, I can't get a spot? That's cold dawg.

I'd love a spot also

I'd love a shot at this!

You wait until the thread is 20 pages before explaining that?

Originally posted on 7th page. Would love to get in on this. Either way I'm definitely looking forward to AIC's break and seeing what you guys get.

Good luck to those on the list!
Allen

Damn it, if Bob Loblaw can get in this, why not me :(

Darn still not on the list. Really hoping I can get in on the break Chris it looks like a fun product

How do I get in on this?

Love the back of the cards. Nice and crisp. Hope Addison Russell is in there. Please add me to the break.

Not sure exactly who you are....? I just made my first post after being a member for two years. At first I would just read the group and box breaks and then my life fell apart with a divorce after being married 14 years., etc... Understandably, I lost my interest in cards for a long time. So anyway, I just made my first post and I'll be danged if some scrub (you) is going to criticize me over my lack of participation. My point is that you have no idea what is going on in peoples' lives and shouldn't be a critical yahoo because of it... unless ofcourse that 'senior member' label of yours came with some hidden insight.

Still hoping to get a spot. Either way, will be an interesting break to watch

Really hoping I get in this break! Spots are filling fast

I want some.

I would really love to be in a group break of this. Please cgilmo select me!

Seems to be a lot of general chit-chat in here about nubes trying to enter these contests. I noticed there are not a whole lot of FCB members with a low number of posts (approximately zero, I think) who have been slotted for these so far. Are these contests/giveaways just for the members who have lots of posts? Or does anyone have a fair shot at it? Thanks!

I came to get down in one of those slots.

Hoping for a slot.

And posts like this is why I stay off boards... gotta live up to their standards of what's acceptable... blah blah blah... You're the king of posting on here, good job sir.

I'm heavily involved in the hobby... I just post my stuff on my blog, not on message boards, and I'm ok with that. A giveaway is just that, open to anyone, regardless of how many times I may or may not have posted on this precious board. I got an e-mail and I responded to it.

If you really want to know what I collect, want to make a trade, want to join some group breaks or win a contest, head over to my blog...

***REDACTED***

Other than that, I hope you win a slot as well, and I hope you get whatever card you're hoping for, how about some encouragement and positive thoughts?

Wow id love to be selected, those cards are sick. Thanks for the contest, this is why I love this site

I'd love a slot because I can't afford the price of a box and will likely not get a NPN. I'll still try though.

If you responded on the first page, you get an automatic slot. Congratulations to the faithful.

Posting in this thread gets you in the drawing for 48 slots in the free group break.

You do not have to be present to win.

I'm in for this contest. Just another reason FCB and Leaf are awesome!

Rules were pretty clearly stated:
To enter, stay tuned to this thread as people will post in it for a shot at one of the draft slots.

Unfortunately for us on iPads, chat doesn't work (no flash) and the uStream app sucks....I don't think they considered those who was making comments on the "Social Stream" tab.

I complained about new members (including myself) not getting slots, and then I got a slot. Other members didn't complain about not getting a slot, and they got slots too. After winning my first contest here and after seeing the posts of all the winners, I've come to realize and accept that it really is totally random. Thanks again for the great contest, and thanks for keeping it fair!

Btw, I still have no idea which card I got. I can't wait to get it in the mail...will be an exciting mystery package.

It definitely is random. I've lost a LOT more contests than I have won. Honestly, I haven't won very many if at all. If it's a contest, it's free. So whether I win or not, I don't lose anything. No reason to be upset about it.

I quoted you, but it's not directed at you. I'm glad you see how it works and I hope others do as well.

I have never won a conteat on these boards and I think I was here nearly from the beginning. I have won a trivia contest that was held live from the national but something that is totally random like last nights Leaf event is not something I have ever won. It is the luck of the draw and for new members to get upset that they didnt win just boggles my mind.

Pm returned with my info. I can't wait to see, what card I got in this totally random. free contest you had.

Making a eBay listing right now as I type this :lol:

And I think I'll just start the eBay auction of "Leaf 2012 Metal Baseball Mystery Pack" Totally random,free contest win... keyword spam Hot Pack,Hot, Hot Wow Mojo LQQK 1/1 with a high bin of 599.99 and then in the description I'll taught all of you that did not get a slot in this totally, free, random contest...... And then when the card arrives, I'll then change the Auction to what's in the package from this totally, free, random contest........BUT I WILL NOT LOWER MY BIN Ha haha hahah ahahah!!!!!!!

Im having to lose my internet because I cant afford it. I was hoping to win a good card to sell to get enough money to stay online here. Im not giving up after 3 tries, I am forced to. I should have known someone would question my judgement.

Winning a $5 card isn't going to pay for much Internet.

Not sure if this post was serious or not...... LOL

I didn't read it all but are people really XXXXXing about not getting a slot in a random free contest???? Are you here for freebies or to enjoy the board? I may not post a ton but I read a lot on fcb, and I'm certainly not here just to have my hand out for contests. It's fun to ocasionally have a chance at something free, but please dont let this be the only reason youre here. most of the "regulars" you see have probably given more than theyve received.

I didn't get a slot in the free Leaf break.... goodbye cruel world.

Fortunately, I got the last card in the break, so I've decided to stay.

I thought it was awesome of Brian to do. Regardless of what card I get (was at work so didn't see break) I'll be keeping it and hope that player ends up being a stud! I'll keep it just because this was a great thing Leaf did that they didn't have to. Heard a Pujols wasn't hit, which is good because it means they are still in the product, but would have been nice to see one pulled. I would have to imagine that would boost sales.
