Congratulations to Lemushki, sule, and anchorm4n for winning the giveaway! You have all been sent emails and private messages with instructions on how to claim your prizes. Here are their winning entries:
Lemushki - Botface Comment
Sule - Toy Captain Tarim Comment
Anchorm4n - Voting on Painter's Virtue
Since we can't preview the vote, instead, here's anchorm4n's comment!
Also, fun fact! Anchorm4n is one of the only people who has contributed articles to the website as a non-staff member. Graveyard Deathrattle Rogue was a hell of a deck. We really need to bring back wild Wednesdays.
Congrats to the winners.
Congratulations winners! I hope you enjoy those bundles, as this set looks to be tons of fun!
Yay, that's so awesome! Congrats to lemushki and sule as well!
I'll see what I can do about an interesting Wild spotlight Flux :-)
Gratz everyone !
Also, I was more than happy that Anchorm4n wins too as if i won !
Thanks, that's very kind of you!
I'm modifying the giveaway time by an hour (1 more hour). Due to the daylight savings time change, I put in the wrong time into our countdown and don't want to penalize anyone because of it.
Well, not too much time left! Good luck everyone!
I thought it would be more effort based than luck.
I would say it was kind of a mix. Voting and commenting on every single card can be quite a bit of effort and takes time. Also opening 250 packs, if you do it just for the giveaway (luckly it was not my case) can be pretty taxing I assume.
gl guys!
Love these giveaways! Good luck to everyone (including me)!
I never used to use the Pack Opener, but I am now since it improves my chances of winning. I am curious how the scoring works, though. Are some sets worth more than others? Is there a random component to how much each card yields? I've noticed huge score discrepancies between packs that seem to me to contain similar value, golden cards and all.
Rarity and gold seem to matter, with gold mattering a whole lot more, even more than in actual Hearthstone's dust value. The total pack value might be some kind of multiplication rather than addition, because a lone golden legendary isn't enough to get a really high score, but in the company of some golden cards of lower rarities the point value skyrockets.
You personally have 2 packs in the top 5 of the leaderboard, both have a golden legendary and 2 golden epics, but the difference between them is over 200,000 (nice packs, btw!). Maybe that golden common multiplied it?
There are indeed multipliers for golden cards and for signature cards since they increase the overall value of a card pack.
There's some other magic too with different cards being assigned base values based on criteria we don't make public ;)
Thanks for the give away and good luck to everybody!
Thanks for the giveaway Flux and do enjoy the chance of multiple entries to increase our odds at winning. All the best to everyone who can comment on every new card and open the most packs through the simulator (wonder if some peeps would go far enough to make a bot to open packs 😏)
Luckily we do have a cap on the number of packs someone can open to be eligible for the giveaway!
Good luck and thanks for doing this!
Best of luck everyone - may the odds be in your favor!
