Show & Tell Contest - Week 1 - Best Card You Got Over the Holiday Season

[RGM81]

Happy new year and welcome to 2024, everybody!

Today we begin the new Show & Tell Contest - this contest will run weekly throughout 2024 - you can see the weekly themes and get the "how to" in the main contest thread here: https://www.sportscardforum.com/thre...t-2024-Edition!

The first theme is: Best Card You Got Over the Holiday Season

This can be any card you acquired between December 15-31, whether it came from Santa, eBay, your LCS, a trade on SCF (we love those!), a box break, as long as it got in your hands during that window of time. Now, I know that Canada Post has some delays over the holidays, so, if you bought the card and it hasn't shown up yet, please remember that you have until Sunday, January 7th at 11:59pm PST to post it.

Posting guideline: please ensure that you have proof of ownership in your image. This can be as simple as having your SCF user name on a decoy card alongside your submission. I'll share an example below.

Contest is open to all SCF Members except for myself, fellow TM's, and anyone in the management. We can play, but we won't be eligible in the voting rounds.

Reminder about the points & RP available for participation:

How points will be awarded:

1pt for a valid entry
Voting:
4pts for first place
2pts for second place
If we get more than 10 entries, an additional point will be awarded to both 1st and 2nd place, and I'll award 1 point for 3rd place.

Each entry will earn you 25 Rewards Points. For those not familiar with SCF RP, it's a site currency that can be used to purchase cards from other members, the SCF Rewards Store, and get into special Group Breaks hosted by @doniceage

The winner of each week's contest will be awarded an additional 250RP.

We are still awaiting confirmation of our year-long contest prize; suffice to say, I think you'll like it.

My entry is from a box of 21-22 Leaf Lumber purchased during a LCS Holiday Sale. It is a Twig Sigs 6 Pewter numbered out of six. Lucie Robitaille, Brett Hull, Adam Oates, Jari Kurri, Eric Lindros, and Doug Gilmour.

Had two trades come in and this card seemed fitting for the week-1-entry.
