well, the individual bonuses happened 10 times last year....
plus, there is the 1 in 32 chance at the year end bonus... My only critique of this promo each year is I feel all the year end bonus payout should be equal... why should the WR/TE with the most TD's get $500 more than the RB with the most TD's??? Make it the same payout for all 6 categories!!!!

So how long are we going to have to wait on this? My $575 bucks has already been tied up for going on 2 weeks and the promo is only 1/3 filled. Last year's filled pretty quickly so I'm not really sure why people aren't joining this.

Announcement:
Now that we're approaching Week #4, we're as anxious as all of you to get this promo randomized so everyone knows what players they will be rooting for! So with that, we've decided to set a deadline for this Season Player Promo #3. Deadline to enter will be this Thursday, September 28th at 3 PM EST. If the promo doesn't fill all 96 spots before the deadline, we're going to fill in "Bonus" into any potentially unfilled spots and conduct the randoms. Everyone with a spot still receive 1 Random Box + 1 Random Player to follow during the season so nothing changes here. As a BONUS to everyone who enters before the deadline, we're also going to give back up to 10 additional "Bonus" players to 10 random participants in a separate random! Up to 10 of you will receive an extra player to follow all season long! Example) So let's say the deadline hits and there are 50 confirmed participants in the promo. We'll fill in "Bonus" into spots #51 - 96 on "The 96 Participants" list. As we've always done, we'll randomize the Promo Box List and The Player List. We'll post a match up list so everyone will see what box and player they are due to receive. The 10 Bonus Player giveaway! After the initial box and player random, we'll then create a list of the Players that "Bonus" has received and randomize the list 3 times. Top ten players on the Blowout list will be given back to participants! We'll then random the original 50 participants list 3 times. Participants #1 - 10 after the random will receive an extra corresponding player compliments of Blowout Cards! Now let's fill the rest of this promo! |

So, with this new "bonus" and only 10 of the unclaimed players being given back, you're saying it's entirely possible that Tom Brady, Kareem Hunt, Antonio Brown, Ezekiel Elliot, Aaron Rodgers and other likely bonus recipients won't be assigned to anyone and be dead in the water? What about at the end of the season? If the top passer isn't assigned to anyone, will that bonus just not be given out, or will it progress down the line until you hit a player that someone has?

We know that we're heading into Week #4 of the season and everyone is anxious to see what players (and boxes) they are due to receive. Rather than delay this any further, we decided to offer a solution that we felt would be the most fair for everyone. Yes, it's possible that participants may miss out on the Tom Brady's and Kareem Hunt's, but it's also possible that all of these players will be awarded as well. Ultimately, everything will be determined by the random. Please understand that by filling in the "Bonus" placeholder spots on the participant list, each individual participant's odds are unchanged. In fact, odds of hitting single game and season awards bonus's are increased when you factor in the 10 Bonus Player's that will be given away. If the deadline hits tomorrow (and we remain at 39 spots filled) everyone will then have about a 25% greater chance of having a 2nd player. With all of that said, if you have any reservations at all and would like to be removed from Season Player Promo #3, we ask that you email us as soon as possible so we can facilitate a refund BEFORE the deadline. Danny@blowoutcards.com We sincerely enjoy running these promos for our members and will be more than happy to cater to each individual participants request as they are communicated to us! Just please let us know before 3 pm est on Thursday. Thank you to everyone for their patience and understanding! |

I feel like the second part of my question wasn't adequately addressed. Are you indeed saying that if the passing leader is someone that isn't owned, that the bonus then goes to nobody? If so, this is a TERRIBLE promo now. The weekly ones not going to someone if that player isn't owned is still a bummer, but understandable. A season long bonus possibly not being given out is completely unacceptable.
Most people know that when they buy into these promos, they're not going to get anywhere near their $200 back from the box they get. But they know that the extra money that doesn't go towards boxes has a chance to come back to them in the bonuses, and potentially taking them away is a real bad idea. Sure, someone's personal odds of getting the promo either stay the same or increase if they get one of the bonus spots, but knowing there's a chance that NOBODY gets it and blowout gets to keep the extra money just really rubs me the wrong way. If you've got a struggling promo that you're attempting to fill, you should make it MORE enticing, not less. What about removing all the lowest price boxes? If you've got 25 empty spots at the deadline, you should manually go in and remove the 25 lowest priced boxes before the random, giving people a better shot at a box that's actually worthwhile. |

OK, we appreciate everyone's input and here's what we've decided. We think everyone will be really pleased with this FINAL change.
There are currently 48/96 spots filled = exactly 50% filled. We're going to cut this off here. The 96 Promo Box Random - All 96 Boxes will be in play but only the first 48 boxes after the random will be distributed. - We will randomize the list 3 times. - Afterwards, the first 48 boxes will be distributed to the 48 Participant list. - We will post a "Match Up List" afterwards so everyone can see what box they are due to receive. The 96 Player Random - All 96 players will be distributed to participants! - For each spot purchased, participants will now receive 2 Players! - We will randomize the list 3 times. - We will post a "Match Up List" afterwards so everyone can see what players they are due to receive. The Single Game Rewards Bonuses will stay at $100 and the Season Accomplishment Reward Bonuses will remain at the original amounts. |

Thanks! |

Gotta say ... I was psyched before, and now I'm twice as psyched! It's a lottery. My chances of getting a big box or a top player are still slim. But now I have twice the chances on players! Well done, Blowout!

OK everyone, it's random time!
Random #1 - 96 Boxes will be randomized (Boxes #1-48 will distribute. Boxes #49-96 will not) Random #2 - 96 Players will be randomized (Everyone will receive 2 players. If you are #1 on the participant list, then your bonus spot will be #49 on the participant list. #2 = #50, #3 = #51, and so on). Match up your spot(s) in the randoms with your # in the Participant List to see the Box + Players that you get! |
