Cardboard spaceship at SDCC just did names and phone numbers, that way u can txt or call the alternates


I was just going to say that too...at SDCC Cardboard Spaceship had 2 high demand pieces. They took down your name and cell phone number, and at a set time the winner would get a text.

You should specify that the winner needs to be present to win, and if they don't reply within xx amount of minutes you'll text a replacement winner.

Does this mean the 'Nerd Thunderdome Deathmatch' concept was nixed? :cry:

I vote for a sunday lotto! Too many lottos on Saturday to keep up with everything. Sunday would be easier to manage I would venture.

Sunday? No chance.

And no texting. We'll just post the names or numbers on a board and the winners need to come and get them (by themselves) in a set amount of time.

We'll have the final system in place Saturday morning.

That's the best way to do it. I'm avoiding any lotto based anything because I won't be there for very long. Good luck everyone!

Thanks for participating and congrats on winning! And thank you to everyone for keeping it so civil! We used a wristband system to ensure that each person had one shot and then we had my 7 year old booth partner draw the winning numbers.

Next year Dennis, Kazu, and I will do it way bigger. Thanks!

Henry it was great to have the numbers already drawn and posted up nice at the call time. I don't know about everyone else but I liked that much better than the lottery mob scenario!

Henry didn't sell me any $5 deals so I was a sour lemon. The yellow Kumon does look as amazing in person though.

Thanks for the kind words guys. This was a non-profit venture designed to teach a couple of 7 year olds about business. They both came away with a great experience and are looking forward to next year. Thanks for keeping it loose and fun!

I was really surprised how on top of it the girl was who was there when I visited your booth. From putting on bracelets to giving out the prizes. Well done to them!

Very nicely done, Stef.

Great shots of a great toy, showcasing all the wonderful qualities therein.

And still my favorite Kumon version.

This beauty just arrived today :shock:

Halloween
Love the subtle orange on the skull, really defines it and makes it pop out.

How many full glitter versions out there? Ive seen two so far.
