TOPIC: Is there a planned date for 2008 Tokens?

Re: Is there a planned date for 2008 Tokens? 16 years 5 months ago #25

I can live with "Charlie" as a nickname!<br /><br />I can live with or without a 2008 GT (would of course prefer going...) - but I do totally LOVE the random luck factor as this is a GREAT way to reward the buyers and promote healthy sales!<br /><br />It might be KEWL to film the GT runs - or at least share photos of some of the special moments...like the bonus room, or other such exclusive events so that those who do not go on it get to share via photos.<br /><br />Thanks for keeping it fun and interesting Jeff.  Hey - your changes are getting better and better every year (I know - I just encouraged him to keep changing things...try not to hit the stacks of tokens when you all throw things at me.)

Jeff,<br />    Will the Golden Ticket token be packaged on top or will they be further down in the stack?  I think this is such a cool idea.<br /><br />Kim

The Golden Ticket will be in the middle of the stack so it will be non-detectable until you crack that baby open.<br /><br />My biggest worry is that someone will just throw it away since they don't know better.  Oh, well...

<br />Will the Golden Token holders be able to keep the Golden Tokens as souveniers after the run, or will they have to turn them in?  <br />

<br /><br />if you have to turn them in, this could get extremely funny. as for myself....that would be a tough call.

Not to worry, Smak - with the amount you buy, you'll end up with three or four of them.<br /><br />Brian<br />

<br /><br />I have the feeling that anyone who orders tokens before Gencon will either have a clue about the golden tickets or will be wise enough to come looking on the forums if they get a token that confuses them.  So I bet all 16 get found by people who understand them.  Now will all 16 get used is a different issue.  <br /><br />If you combine the golden ticket with a pick your own purple promotion, I will likely buy atleast 6 purple worth (50% more than last year).  (180 packs)<br /><br />If the first run is less than 4,000 packs (of 10 tokens) it will likely run out fairly quickly.  Perhaps on the first day.  <br />Perhaps early on the first day.  <br /><br />

<br /><br />I agree. I was thinking the first run wont go past March, but if George alone is doing that much, Id say a week. First day would just be scarey man :)

oh hey Jeff...<br /><br />I still have the PM you sent me in March 2006 when you told me about the creation of Gearon's Heavy Mace!  <br /><br />I keep it in my PM folder as a reminder of how COOL that was!<br /><br />Thanks!  Keep up the good work!

<br /><br /><br />You could always include a small pamphlet with each order, explaining how the Golden Ticket thing works.

<br /><br />Five for your token collection, or because you have a group of five you want to go with?
