I knew I was leaving one out.  And re the Stash: Wha?  How long did it last, an hour?  90 minutes?

I think less, actually!

I saw the email 45 minutes after the stash was up for sale. It took me maybe 10 minutes to choose some other cards, and then WHAM. Gone.



Also, Whispering Imps is doing a cyber Monday sale today.

http://whisperingimps.com/collections/all

There's collector's packs (One red one black) for just $22.50. Another great deal.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Penguinmagic is doing a new $5 deal every hour. I just got the stealth pen.
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

I had both a 12 deck pack and 6 deck pack in my cart way before either ran out. I just couldn't check out. Needless to say, I'm pretty sore about it.

I think Vanishing Inc. is having a sale today as we'll.

Blue Crown is extending their Cyber Monday sale another 12 hours, because of the checkout issues.



Still time to get 3 dollar decks and downloads if you missed them.

I'm still scratching my head as to how AP's stash deal was already sold out before Cyber Monday even began on Monday, December 2nd @12:01am.  :-\

It wasn't.  I checked at 12:40am EST and there were 3-packs still available.

MrMollusk stated they were still around for at least five minutes after that - but were sold out by 12:55am.

It required some serious patience, but I landed Red LTD and Gold Arcane decks from Ellusionist's cyber Monday (now Tuesday as well) sale.  Also landed a red artifice uncut sheet - I've never purchased a sheet before so I'm not exactly sure what to do with it...

-B
Starting to get better...have to stay dedicated...can't lose any more cards in the middle of a trick.  Literally, completely lost a card.

I would suggest getting it framed nicely. When done well, it should look really good.

Anyone have pics of framed sheets by any chance?

This thread has some pictures of framed uncuts.

http://aethercards.com/discourse/playing-card-plethora/framed-uncuts/

The ones CBJ posted have custom done designs for making the uncuts more of an art piece, but look through that thread, there are photos.

So I am unsure if I should start a new topic but T11s holiday contest - I really enjoy it. they even made it so if you use a proxy to hide your ip so you can spin for free again you can't, not that I tried, also I really would love to go meet David Copperfeild. That might beat Dons, David Blaine story.

Did anyone take advantage of the Ellusionist (E) Flash Frenzy Cyber Monday Sales? I have been eager to get into the Black Club, I saw my opportunity at $110.25. The Black Club has probably increased in size 5X - 10X now. Could this increase impact E sending out free gifts to members due to additional shipping costs? Will E top what they did last year or will it decline?

The theory11 Christmas contest is amazing this year, I think. Your getting an opportunity to win something everyday. My first spin I received 50 elite points. I do have concerns about the coding of the wheel. Does everyone win 50 points first spin? I will keep you updated.

12/6 - 50 Elite Points

I won nothing with my first spin, so no everyone doesn't win with their first.

I got 50 Elite Points too, but I had a friend let me know they got the 500 points on their free spin. I'm guessing it's randomly, but more so that the probability is that you'll likely to get the lower rewards. Honestly, I'm hoping to win enough points for a free deck in the archives or win a free deck. I'd love the big prizes, but I know the odds of that are really really low like most lotteries.

Heads up on the Theory11 contest, but it's one free token EVERY 24 hours so it's not calendar day, but time based. It was posted on their forum.

I'm at about 6200 lifetime elite points. I'd like to get to the 10,000 elite member status. I'm good with the free points. I also want one of those ultimate bricks. I would have enjoyed having one of our members win it last year so we could see pictures. Most likely as you mentioned, each prize has a probability coded into the wheel.

I figured it was 24 hours after I tried taking spin #2 this morning. Good to know officially.

I won 100 elite points. I am hoping to claim my token for the next weekish and then cash them in for spins all on the same day if I can.

My second spin was 100 Elite Points. Now I'm wondering HOW or IF those points being WON are actually being added to my total. I'm also going to keep track of my total Elite Points each day I spin, just in-case there's a glitch (wink wink). This is too good to be true.

12/6 - 50 Elite Points
12/7 - 100 Elite Points (2367) 6,103 / 10k Lifetime Points

Prizes can NOT be redeemed without a prize confirmation code, provided via email after spinning the wheel. Any potential winner who does not claim their prize within thirty (30) calendar days of first notification will forfeit his or her prize. All winners are solely responsible for any and all taxes and/or fees, and all such additional costs that may be incurred. theory11 reserves the right to alter, nullify, or amend any contest rules or prizes at anytime.

Has anyone received an email confirmation code?

@ John B.: Theory11 will be backlogged. They should get the email out within 24 hours to alleviate issues and customer support emails. The good thing is, we don't have to claim a prize we don't want.
