Cwick Contest for Commenters

Why doesn't blogger give you an easy way to get some basic stats on your blog???  In this case, I wanted to know who had commented, and how many times.  Maybe there is a way, but I couldn't find it.

So I manually copied all the comments out of the posts I was interested in, and used Excel to get the info I wanted.  Took a while. I went back to July.  I have posted a total of 48 posts since then, and here are the people who have commented and how many comments they made.

As anyone who is paying attention to the blogging world could have predicted, Fuji leads the pack with 46 comments in only 48 posts.  Crazy!!

So here is how the contest works.  You get as many entries as you have comments above. So acrackedbat (Julie!) gets 17 entries.  madding gets 5 and SumoMenkoMan gets 1.  You get the idea.

Below are 13 prizes you can spend your entries on.  If you want.  Nobody is forcing you, and these prizes are not collection makers.  In fact, I am assuming that there are prizes so lame that nobody will even want them.  You can spend all of your entries on a single prize, or spread them out, whatever you want. More than one prize can be won by a single commenter. Examples of how you could do it:

Example 1: I want to spend 10 entries on prize #3, and 5 entries on prize #7

Example 2: I want all my entries on prize #11

Example 3: I have 13 total entries, I want one on each of the prizes

When the contest closes, I will tally the entries for each prize, and put them in Random.org to determine the winner for each prize.

Here are the prizes:

Prize #1 - 1975 Topps Goose Gossage.  Not great shape, but I have seen worse.

Prize #2 - 2020 Bowman Prospects Luis Robert

Prize #3 - 1987 Coca-Cola/SAS Detroit Tigers Kirk Gibson.  Most of these I have seen have surface problems on the right side, and this one is no exception.

Prize #4 - 2019 Topps Gallery - Heritage - Green Buster Posey.  Weird color scheme.  But it's numbered /250.

Prize #5 - 2014 Topps Archives Marco Scutaro.  Not sure about this one.  It is autographed, and looks very legit.  But I can't say for sure.

Prize #6 - 2017 Bowman Draft - Gleyber Torres.  In case you don't have one, I guess.

Prize #7 - 1977 Topps Rollie Fingers.  A little off centered, and typical 1977 Topps condition.

Prize #8 - 2 cards this time, 2012 Gypsy Queen Black Tom Seaver and 1023 Gypsy Queen Nolan Ryan, both minis.

Prize #9 - 2017 Topps Triple Threads Sapphire - Julio Urias.  #d /25.

Prize #10 - 1990-91 NBA Hoops - Mark Jackson.  Not perfect condition, but not awful.  Look at those two goobers...

Prize #11 - 1989 Fleer Bill Ripken Black Box version.

Prize #12 - 1994 Super Nintendo Ken Griffey Jr.   Fun oddball.

Prize #13 - 1969 Topps Willie Mays, after having gone through the laundry!

You can comment what you want your entries to be below, or if you want to keep them private, feel free to email them to me.

The contest will close Monday January 4th at 5PM Pacific time.
