My last 2 spins resulted in no rewards :(. the past 3 days however were 150, 250, and 100 pts. One of the day was free spin.

Yeah, we've been discussing it on the holiday/Black Friday 2013 topic a bit.  So far it looks like you might be doing better than most, Sparkz.

This is what i got

Spin 1 - 100 Elite Points
Spin 2 - 1000 Elite Points
Spin 3 - 50 Elite Points
Spin 4 - 50 Elite Points

I got a free spin twice or so, but since its just spinning again...i don't really bother when i got it.

BTW, i seem to be unable to access the elite points/archive page without getting my account logged out. Anybody has that problem?

So far me :
50 pts / 100 pts / 50 pts
Friend 1 - no reward / 50 pts
Friend 2 - 1 000 pts / no reward
Friend 3 - 50 pts / 50 pts

I assume there is no way more than 1 person to log in into 1 account , so 1 acc to have 4-5 dif ip for 4-5 spin/day? :/
What about 1 person changing his ip and creating multi acc... yeah i know answer... probably should not..

I want to see people with friends in skype on video calls and everybody watching and commenting and cursing/laughing then upload to youtube and then someone to make compilation lool should be funny

I've done alright actually. I've done around 8 spins I think.

Only elite points but they have been okay.

Couple of 500's here and there
Some 250's
few 50 pointers.
1 no reward.
That's it really...

I've seen some guys on Instagram get White Monarchs and the actual grand prize. Couldn't believe it.

I have to agree.  I love waking up and spinning the wheel though.  Today was driving me nuts because just this morning I won another spin, then I won 2 more spins and each time I was teetering on the edge of something like a free deck or a chest!  But to no avail I only walked away with 100 points.

I wish that was the case. I got 12 tokens for buying 12 items and didn't get anymore than 150 points, a few were no rewards. I can't remember my progress, but it seems others are doing well. Especially those getting 500-1000 points :)

use something like vtunnel.com to block your ip go and get a free token with a different e-mail. then get back to your normal browser and check that e-mail use the link to spin the wheel. you now have a 2nd account that could win a good prize. If you do, have it ship to a friend otherwise since your other account is hooked to your t11 account they will know you had 2 and you wont get your prize. Not that I would do anything like this. I am not promoting anyone do this. We should not cheat.

Actually the IP issue does pose a problem........So my son is starting to enjoy cards and cardistry and he's home from college, I had sent him a link to the contest and since he's home It won't give him his daily free token, say's it's already been used for the day.

Gotten nothing but 50 and 100 points, and I think one day I got a "no prize." Sucks that it's apparently so difficult to win those other tempting prizes, but hey I'm not complaining!

It's okay to complain. What's the point getting only "spin again" and then "no reward" or 50  points only/most of the time? You will end up having 3$-4$ or so if you do it every day for ~20-25 days. I don't need that, it will end cheaper to buy the stuff from local/europe store (im int) I prefer to have 2 spins for whole month but to have real/fair shance to win something.

Leaving the Copperfield prize on the wheel is a little deceptive.  At the least they should cross if off of the list of available prizes.  I guarantee you there are still people our there spinning that wheel trying to win the Copperfield prize.

There are 2 winners of the grand prize, only 1 left to be determinated.

It takes ur time and high expectation and crushes you by most mean way lol  xD; best just not to expect much or close ur eyes while wheel is spinning (no it sux dont do it) ;  i would not give up, even if i know just by the way is spinning that it will miss again big prizes xD but hey the hope for winning - just that feels good.  :)

It is free... Whether you buy something, or just use your free entry, it is still free! If you got 50 elite points (the second smallest prize) for 30 days, you'd still get 1500 points. If you got the 100 points or more on a couple of days, you could earn yourself a red Jaqk or something good!

I totally agree on this. I have a few times when i swear it would stop on some of the bigger prizes, but then again, 50 or 100 elite points is definitely much better than nothing at all. And even if you really get nothing on a spin, it may cost you at most 5 minutes, an email space and a little emotional distress. I can spin this for a whole year with no real complains.

You're looking at it the wrong way.  It's a simple lottery.  The computer randomly selected your prize (or lack of a prize thereof) from the moment you clicked "spin".  All that "wheel" does is make it look dramatic - and because it's an Internet-sent applet that runs in your browser, there's countless factors that can effect the smoothness of the spin, making the wheel seem off-balance as it spins around, randomly slowing down and speeding up until if finally stops and your prize is revealed.  This of it as a big visual effect for TV or a movie with a few little glitches in it that clue you in that you're not looking at the real thing.  Regardless of the spin action, the servers at T11 knew what you were getting the moment the wheel was launched into motion.

tl;dr - ignore the spin graphics, it's the end result that matters.

Well said. T11 sure knows how to lure people in though. Even when you know the wheel graphic is "pointless" it makes entering the contest much more tempting (as opposed to them just telling you the prizes and your chances of winning them).

I think there are two DC prizes on offer which one has been claimed and only one wire kit which has already been won. Correct me if I'm wrong.:-)

Thank you.  It's really the art of eye candy.  It creates an artificial process that serves no functional purpose in terms of conducting random drawings but is visually entertaining and enticing, making people want to come back for more.  Why do you think so many casinos, especially those that still look stuck in the '60s or '70s, have all those flashing lights, bells, etc.?  It's visual stimuli meant to cloud your thinking just enough, making you want to make some lights and sounds of your own by playing a slot machine or a table game.

The word I've heard is that yes, there's two Copperfield prizes, but that the winner of one of them opted instead to receive a Wire video kit.  That would mean the two Copperfield prizes are still available.

Awesome! I was going to do the same if I won anything other then Elite Points (screen shot). Strange, theory11 has the White Monarchs & Red JAQK lower in the archive then the recently released and more readily Black JAQK.

Here are my totals to date:
12/6  -  50 Elite Points
12/7  - 100 Elite Points (2367) 6,103 / 10k Lifetime Points
12/8  -  50 Elite Points (2417) 6,153 / 10k Lifetime Points
12/9  - No Reward
12/10 - 100 Elite Points (2517) 6,253 / 10k Lifetime Points
12/11 - 100 Elite Points (2617) 6,353 / 10k Lifetime Points
12/12 -  50 Elite Points (2667) 6,403 / 10k Lifetime Points
12/13 - 100 Elite Points (2767) 6,503 / 10k Lifetime Points

The physics and randomness of that seem a little suspect. :)

The few spins I've done slow down and almost stop at the very front of a space and then slowly slowly slowly make its way off the good prize to the crummy one. Oh well, it's still a fun idea.

In their listing of decks in their store, T11 will list them in order of release for the most part, but will list sold-out decks at the bottom.  That would be why White Monarchs and Red JAQKs are near the bottom - totally sold out or restricted to being a company prize or promotional giveaway, but either way they're not coming back in stock for purchase.

Don, I'm not talking about the playing cards page with the sold out decks at the bottom. I understand all of that. I'm saying it's strange that in "The Archive" section, where customers can spend Elite Points (as attached) that Red JAQK's are 2500 points, White Monarchs are 3000 points and the most recently released BLACK JAQK is MORE at 3500 points. Black JAQK's are not as difficult to get as the other two decks I mentioned yet its harder to obtain through "The Archive". It should be Black JAQK 2500, Red JAQK 3000 & White Monarch 3500.

As for the playing cards page, theory11 took the White Monarchs off the page as a SOLD OUT product.

During the Silver Monarch and Rebel release I found a glitch. The glitch was adding a White Monarch to my cart after I had made my purchase of Silver Monarch and Rebels. I simply went back into my cart where the White Monarch was and updated the quantity from 1 White Monarch to 24 and checked out. Hoping they would let me keep my order, I called theory11 and let them know about the order and the glitch. I figured if others were able to do what I did, theory11 would be sure to cancel all White Monarch orders that day including mine. I did the right thing and took a chance they would let me keep the order by preventing others from doing it. I did pay for it after all. Unfortunately the order was voided minutes later and the White Monarch's were officially taken off as a sold out product of their playing cards page. Besides, I was able to get White Monarchs the first two times they were released in limited quantity.

I noticed that oddness with the Black JAQK requiring more points even though it is so recent of a deck. I'm just wondering if that's due to potential demand; more people still want it even though it is more recent so they'll charge more points for it. They recently (a month or two back) raised the points required for the Brown Wynn. I remember that use to be 3000 pts but is now 7500 pts. That could, too, be demand or just limited stock still available within their archives.

I suspect that it's a supply-and-demand issue.  People went gaga over the Black JAQK deck, and we don't know the size of the print run of either deck, do we?  It's genuinely possible that the Black JAQKs are in higher demand and there's fewer of them left.

Re the White Monarchs incident, they must have just had a glitch in the coding that created that mistake and they moved to fix it.  Either that or they did genuinely sell out.

I got the same!  But not the "no rewards" part.  I've been lucky enough to snag a 250 and a 500 - the rest were all 50s.  Not as lucky as some people, apparently...

I probably have close to 1,000 points from spins.  I got 100 earlier this evening.

It's really agonizing to see that goofball animation crank the wheel, slow it down intermittently as if applying brakes, then perhaps even speeding it up after that, then finally, committing physics-defying final rotations that spin almost halfway around the wheel if not more before coming to a halt.  They must be spinning it in zero-gee with low-interia ceramic bearings packed in synthetic oil to reduce friction...   :))  Who knew that T11 had offices in the ISS?  Lyle, is that why you've been so busy lately?  I hear the Internet isn't as reliable that high in the sky!  (And the commute must be a bitch...I hear the Russian capsules are pretty cramped.)  At least we can wave at you as you pass over our respective countries!

I know this isn't the LOLAQ, but I'd love to hear some other unique theories about Theory11's spinning wheel.from another dimension!  Funnier is better!

Everyone seems to say that the wheel ticks forward evermore on there animation - I have the complete opposite problem; when the wheel is moving at a normal pace it seems like it'll pass into a decent prize (a deck or a grand prize) and then it suddenly stops - as if someone literally halts it. The suddenness of it is painful.

You don't convert them to a voucher.  The points can be used two ways - either to obtain free goods from the Elite Archive or to receive a discount on merchandise.  I don't know what the ratio of points to dollars is, but you do get a discount if you spend points.  As a general rule, shipping costs don't get discounted by most magic/cards companies because they have less control over pricing - they have to rely on other companies to do their shipping; they don't ship it using their (nonexistent) fleet of trucks, planes and delivery personnel, and they don't have those aerial drones Amazon wants to use in the next few years...damn, the skies above my city will look very, very different when that happens.  I predict many thieves will start purchasing nets!

A good course of action might be to try appealing to your government representatives to repeal the duties and taxes on foreign-made playing cards.  As crazy as it sounds, you're more likely to make headway there.

I guess you could just go back and try again later.

I had my spin delayed by over 12 hours. (I spinned once at 9am, and when i went back the next day, it said i had spun and could only spin again 12 hours later). But no issues after that.


and they don't have those aerial drones Amazon wants to use in the next few years...damn, the skies above my city will look very, very different when that happens.  I predict many thieves will start purchasing nets!

You might get lucky at the initial stage when problems are likely to occur and a few drones might just end up in your backyard.  ;D Heck, you might start "Donazon" or something if you are really lucky.  :D

It's worth bearing in mind that the Archive's available items does periodically change - something like a pack of white Centurions (or the current-day equivalent) could pop up.  If you've stockpiled your points, you're ready to pounce.

Alternately, if you couldn't care less about the collector goodies and just want to get stuff at discount, you can apply points to your order and save a few bucks.

And let's not forget that some of the prizes in the Archive are not tangible objects - one-on-one Skype sessions to learn magic from T11's magicians is not something to sneeze at.

LOL, I had the same thing happen yesterday Gunshy, but with the Ultimate Brick.........apparently there was a stiff breeze all of sudden that sent my wheel foreward past my prize  :(

In answer to the earlier question, at the moement I would be happy to accumulate the points for a White Monarch....of course I would rather win one of the prizes, but hey, I'll take what I can get.........again, IT'S FREE!

Each prize spins the same way for its respective reward. A "No reward" spins very slow over Copperfield and then stops on no reward. The wheel will most likely spin for two minutes for the Copperfield winner. Basically the wheel already knows the prize when you hit the spin button. Radom prize, Pre-determined wheel animation. The animation of the wheel is for show.

No reward. The wheel slowed to a crawl BEFORE the Copperfield prize and stopped immediately as it crossed into "No reward". Beautiful.

That's the equivalent of either winning five Saturday night contests or spending $500 in their store!  Not bad.

Now THIS, on the other hand, is cheesy!  Damn thing actually "stuttered" on the Chest of Medallions, jerking almost to a halt before continuing to cruise around the wheel...  Honestly, they should have done this without the wheel animation - maybe something like number balls from a lotto machine would have been less annoying!  :))  I know it's all predetermined before the animation even starts, but it more closely resembles a rigged wheel than an honest one!  That can't be good for a company's rep...

I just spun the wheel and landed on White Monarchs. Maybe three or four pixels from the line that divides them and 50 Elite points. The winner box popped up and said that I had won 50 Elite points. I clicked ok and, I promise you that this is true, the wheel jerked forward about 10 pixels so that I was well within the 50 points wedge. AFTER it had stopped on the Monarchs! Wow...

I re-read and don't think that i was clear. It landed solidly on White Monarchs, told me that I had won 50 points, and then moved off of monarchs after I had clicked ok. The wheel moved a space to match what it had told me that I won!

I'm just ready for the wheel to break, stop on every prize and award all of them to me, all on one spin! :-)

I always expect to get the "worst" reward when it starts to slow down after the four "big" rewards. As long as it doesn't slow down after "Meet Copperfield" (which the worst reward would be no reward), I'm basically quite pleased. Saves my heart from bursting as well.

Just got 2 free spin and won 50 + 250 points.

I wish I remembered to post it on the day I got it, but the day that was most fun for me happened like this:

1st spin (free spin) - win 2 spin
2nd spin - win another spin
3rd spin - nothing
4th spin - win 500 pts
5th spin - win another spin
6th spin - win 50 pts.

I'm about 30 pts away from a either the White Monarch or Propaganda deck. Any suggestions which one I should take when I get enough points?

I've had decent luck with the wheel for my free spins. Most days are 50 or 100 points, and I've gotten a couple No Rewards and 1 500 point spin. I put in an order today for a bunch of stuff (5 cheap decks, couple custom decks, bunch of dollar cardistry stuff from the wire) and got 13 spins, and here's how it turned out:

1. 500 Elite Points
2. 50 Elite Points
3. 50 Elite Points
4. 100 Elite Points
5. 50 Elite Points
6. 100 Elite Points
7. 50 Elite Points
8. No Reward
9. Two Free Spins
9-1. 100 Elite Points
9-2. 100 Elite Points
10. No Reward
11. 50 Elite Points
12. 50 Elite Points
13. 250 Elite Points

So 1,450 Elite Points in total from just that order, or the equivalent of a $145 dollar order. Combine that with my Black Friday order (4 Black JAQKs, 2 Medallions), this current order, and all my free spins over the days I have just over 3,000 elite points from the past few weeks, over 2,000 of which were completely free.  Probably gonna get a pack of White Monarchs, so overall very happy with this contest so far.

Also I stopped watching the wheel when it spins because it only leads to frustration.

Remember, points can be used as discounts on purchases as well as being exchanged for Archive items.  You can also wait for the Archive to have something better available - they do change up the inventory now and then.

Yeah, it said something about a confirmation code; I was wondering about when that will come through, and do I have to pay for shipping/will it come with my next order.

I think I'll wait... Seems pointless to spend them all as a discount, and I don't care for Wynns/ just won a propaganda and have enough white monarchs.

Today I got 500 points and I was ridiculously close to winning the chest of Medallions. About a millimetre away.
Better than a kick in the ass I guess haha.

Also Merry Christmas everybody :)

I'm curious...has anyone read anything about whether the prizes will be awarded? Some contests are set up where all prizes will be rewarded, no matter what, and some state that prizes that remain in the pool at the end of the contest period won't be awarded. I scanned the rules, but don't remember anything one way or the other. If they will be awarded, some folks are going to be winning soon.

Still just points for me and my wife.

I honestly don't remember that all the prizes have to be rewarded at all. I knew T11 has stated that some of them have been claimed already. I think even if people haven't won a lot of point, T11 has done a great job with the contest as I always come back to spin the next day. I've, luckily enough, gotten enough points on top of my pre-existing points to get a free White Monarch deck.

Still just points for me and my wife.

If I was forced to guess, it's programmed into the software that a randomly chosen spin, for example, the 52,969th spin, will be the winner of prize "X", the 34,345th spin will win prize "Y", etc.  Estimates were made as to how many spins will be made, etc., and contingency plans are in place so if the required spin doesn't happen by the last day, it will be reprogrammed based on averages from previous days and the prizes will be gone on the last day.  Again, this is strictly a guess.

Simply put, they WANT those prizes to be won.  It would end up as very bad PR for the company if they weren't.  I looked over the rules as well.

The website's terms of use don't indicate anything about the rules for a contest and dispersal of prizes that were not won.  It does, however, have some interesting legal-ese about how when you buy something from them, you don't actually own it - they do!  What you're buying is a non-exclusive right to use what you've bought.  (I'm assuming this is in reference to intellectual property such as the secrets of a magic trick or similar.)

I also noticed that the company is headquartered (or at least does business in) Charleston, SC and is governed under SC laws.  Interesting - especially since 52 Plus Joker is planning their next convention for that same city...  I should talk with Tom about possibly arranging a visit!

Don is right. I was so close, like everyone else here, to meet DC or to get a brick of Ultimate :)) But the slot machine it's working sooo sloooow....maybe is too cold and it needs some vaseline :P
My father ask me what is that roulette from T11?! He tried and the got 250 elite points for the first try, more than me in three rounds :)

I will try to get a Wynn. I have only one deck. Anyway, if I don't reach 7500 points, what is worth more : Propaganda or White Monarchs? Signed Propagandas are gone, Rebel tshirt too :( I've got 50 today.

Don, CD's?! What is that?! :D I was also a radio DJ, 16 years ago. Time flies so fast...

Erlanger-made Propagandas, not the first-run Props from Cincinnati, are under $10 a piece and apparently are still being printed based on demand.  T11 isn't selling them, but other retailers are getting their hands on them and selling them.  (I always thought it was a little bizarre that they weren't selling this on their site, but it's not like I run the place...)

White Monarchs are a rare, limited-edition deck, only one print run.

They aren't on the wheel.  They're listed as "White Gold Monarchs" - better known as White Monarchs.  i don't think they're planning to give away any of the remaining 33 packs they have of the Gold Monarchs; I recall that only one gross remained undestroyed at their request and that 111 of them were made available for sale.

Before you hit spin, be sure to be relaxed with positive energy and good mood. It works for me. If you have some lucky stuff grab it coin or smth. Also when the wheel start spinning try everything with your mouse click left-right up down etc even with your keyboard and you may scream loud to make it stop/slow and bug .... that's how i won Twice! before that only 50p and no reward. Now 500 and a deck :d The wheel just stops faster, is not waiting to reach no reward sector or 50 points.. Try it and tell me how it was.

Reality is that your method is no different than anyone else's.  Im sure everyone is "hoping" that they land on a good prize.  But thats a far shot from saying that you can manipulate the wheel. Just so you know you gave me a good laugh today but the more I think its actually kind of sad.  By any chance do you still believe in Santa and the Tooth Fairy because that would explain a lot?

Ive been home with the stomach flu and I would just like you to know that I laughed so hard after hearing your method that I was forced to run to the bathroom and vomit.  With that said I'm going to watch some TV and take a nap you entertained me enough today.

Do you two want to grow up a little and leave it be? Come on boys, you win some and you lose some, no need to take it out on one another. Enjoy the offer that been given to you and stop biting each other's heads off

Just a healthy "discourse".  I'm a little cranky cause I'm sick and maybe I was  a little sarcastic but  after his last post I realize there is no hope for him.

Bear this in mind: sometimes it's better to let the foolish man stick a knife in the electric socket than to convince him that what he's doing is dangerous.  When he gets zapped, assuming he survives, perhaps then he'll really learn something.  If he doesn't learn, well...  Some people learn better after they're dead rather than before.

At least with a rep like his, he won't be trading for some time...  When posts go bad like his, he should stop wondering why he's tasting shoe leather and just pull his foot out of his mouth already.  :))

BTW, Ace - your "system" is nothing more than an attempt to explain random chance.  You have no more influence over random chance than Yoelanshel has to convince you that it's dumb luck rather than some innate talent you have that got those prizes for you.  But hey, if you can convince T11 that your "system" works, I'm sure they'd be happy to revoke your entries and void your prizes as per the contest rules.

On a different line of thought, I think I understand a possible reason why so many of us get cheesed off about winning either low-value prizes or nothing at all.

The contest is presented to us in the form of a wheel of chance.  The wheel has 16 divisions - 12 are of one size, while the four major prizes are double the size.  If we identify the major prize divisions as simply being two divisions offering the same prize, there would be 20 divisions in all, with major prized on eight of them.  On a truly random wheel, that would give you a 40% chance of winning a major prize.  Four of the divisions are single-deck prizes - spin with true randomness and they add up to a 20% chance of winning a deck, or a 60% chance of winning a tangible, non-electronic prize or major prize with every spin (one of the major prizes is still "non-tangible", in the form of 10,000 Elite points added to your account).

There's only a 5% chance on a random spin of hitting "no reward" in one spin, not counting of course the chance that you'll hit a free spin which leads to "no reward".  But since free spins still have the same chance of hitting a prize, the odds are still the lowest for "no reward" - everything else is a number of free spins, a quantity of points or a tangible, non-electronic prize.

Following those assumptions, we'd be hitting decks or major prizes at a rate of slightly better than every other spin!  But it's rather plain to see that no, the wheel doesn't spin freely, nor does it create a totally random generation of a result.  We know this in our heads, but our instincts and learned behaviors still tell us that when spinning a wheel, the end result should be totally random - no matter how many positive brain waves you send, lucky coins you possess or waves of a dead chicken you make to try to influence it in any way...  :))

So far, I've racked up 650 elite points. I probably could have gotten more if I remembered to spin the wheel every day. I'm happy with what I've got, though :)

Whenever there are contests or raffles, I enter but don't have very high expectations. Maybe that seems very negative, but I always think of the statistics involved, and I know well that my chance of getting the prize is very small. That, and keeping in mind what Don said about the prize having already been predetermined before the wheel stops spinning kept me from going nuts. :P That being said, I still enjoy taking part in contests or things such as these. I never had any elite points to begin with, so 650 is a good start :D

50 points on my final spin. I'm sure I won around 1000 points overall.

My final go at it was a free spin followed by 50 points.

And we end the prize wheel with a big ole' goose egg, lol

No complaints here though, 2650 Elite points added to the points I had and I grabbed a White Monarch free of charge.........what's not to like  :D

Thanks T11, bring back something like this again next year!!

Yes! 1 last spin- 100 elite points. No complaints won a free deck and around 1000pts. Great Holiday contest for T11. Do it again next year.

Edit- Corrected because Sparkz pointed out I'm a dummy. Thanks Sparkz.

And it ends with a 50 point prize.  I pulled in just over 1000 pts, no other prizes.  But hey, that's 1000 points I didn't have before and didn't have to spend money to get so I ain't complaining.  Thanks for the fun T11!  Hopefully you do something like this again next year!

Before you hit spin, be sure to be relaxed with positive energy and good mood. It works for me. If you have some lucky stuff grab it coin or smth. Also when the wheel start spinning try everything with your mouse click left-right up down etc even with your keyboard and you may scream loud to make it stop/slow and bug .... that's how i won Twice! before that only 50p and no reward. Now 500 and a deck :d The wheel just stops faster, is not waiting to reach no reward sector or 50 points.. Try it and tell me how it was.

you know.. this may sound silly.. but it works for me! lol... tried this yesterday and got 500 points and FINALLY got my White Monachs on my final spin. :)

Thanks Ace.

Final spin: No reward.

That was anticlimactic.

I won around 1000 points through this contest. Pretty good. Then again, 1/2 of that was from a single spin.

Really... Et tu, Mr. Kardify  ???  Congrats on your lucky spin.  Though please entertain me and tell me which of those methods you think helped your chances.  Im thinking if any it must of been the yelling at the computer and shouting expletives demanding the wheel to stop.

The last day of spin was actually pretty fun for me.

1st Spin: Win another spin
2nd Spin: Win two spins
3rd Spin: Win 100 pts
4th Spin : Nothing

As much as I didn't win a lot, I found the contest a lot of fun and congratulations to all that won something cool, besides points, out of the contest. I do wonder if they'll extend the contest if the grand prizes aren't won by tonight. It'd be cool and I guess it proves how much I just want to spin again ....

Unfortunately that last spin amounted to "No Reward"  :(

Ah well, it was fun!

Oh man! My final spin was:

No Reward

Ah well, can't complain. I have no idea how many points I accrued, but I managed to garner enough to get a White Monarch, so that is fun. Somehow I did manage to completely miss the launch of The Wheel, and didn't start partaking until a day or so before Christmas. At least now I know how next year will roll. Well, I say that, is this the first time they've done The Wheel?

It seems none of the majors do the exact same offers/contests from year to year.

I got a 100 points for my final spin, ending up on 1000 points total. I'm rather happy with that, and with this contest.

T11 will surely get a new customer because of this contest. Well played.

I ended up with about 2000 points, which is great, since I missed the first few days. I really enjoyed this little holiday bonus, added a bit of excitement to each day.

50 points on the final round. My girl friend won a Red Jaqk, in the last day. I am so happy for her :D

I guess everybody here was missing something... every time I was close to something, missing a nice prize :)) I've got almost 3300 elite points. I only wanted so much a Brown Wynn, but I guest Propaganda will be fine for me. Maybe next time!

With this elite points I can get a Propaganda deck with free international shipping? I ask because I don't know if free shipping will apply if I buy something with earned elite points from this contest.
