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.

All I see is "until January 1st" - you may have another spin today.

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.

I don't think "E" appreciated this contest at all Rob  ;)

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 ....

Have you asked T11?  They'd have the answers much sooner than we would.

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.
