Sending a PM to Curt and updating the spreadsheet now...

How can we go on, if we dont know what Bluemanta took?
What if he took one of the prizes claimed afterwards?
I dont want to bring this to a hold again, but also it seems we can get into a weird situation when going further on.

I've gone for 3x Hydrogen, that way what Bluemanta claimed shouldn't affect this since there is still 1 left of those.

I've updated the list and will send a PM to Adonael

After BlueManta’s post one of the prizes from Jamm Pakd Cards was marked off on the spreadsheet. (Which now appears to be blank again). At the time it looked as though that was his selection. If you guys want to wait for confirmation that’s fine.

I'll just add that I don't think Bluemanta chose HSBC's mystery decks prize. I contacted Brad yesterday and it didn't sound like he had been in contact with anyone about the prize yet.

Has any of you who picked the JP Games mixed brick received any confirmation from them? I have PM'ed my details to Pipchick and also emailed JP Games but thus far no confirmation of any sort yet.

I think someone got the JP brick but I could be wrong here so the previous posts need to be checked.

Anyways, as you have already emailed JP Games, you might want to send a follow-up. Paul is on the forum as well, and though he might not be checking his PMs regularly but copying the same message to the PM here might help.

That said, I've noticed very long lead times of mails - a package from Germany reached me after 1.5 months. A deck that I'd shipped through SFC took 26 days to reach US. There is a huge backlog at postal services I believe, I think courier services like DHL, UPS, Fedex might be slightly faster these days.

I got mine ... in the middle of last month. Pretty sure it was pre-lockdown (just checked: 17th, according to my emails, so yes the week before lockdown) ... The days have kinda just melted into one another in the last 6 weeks or so, I can understand the concerns at delays in the postal service timeframes. Might be worth messaging Pip and Paul again, just to see where stuff's at. Which reminds me, I need to chase down an imminent delivery from Gio.

Thanks Sunish and Portcullis. I actually emailed them on 21 March, when the lockdown had started. I have taken your advice and re-emailed JP Games and PM'ed Paul.

Thanks again.

You can click on the person's name to see their last login. She doesn't check in as often as before. You should go ahead and PM her about this. If not, you can also try to reach her on IG. Her handle is the same here.

so is PipChick gonna pick those winners or....coz i don't think she's really been that active( also keeping in mind the current state of things) so maybe we can have someone else pick winners? or shall we wait for Pip to say something?
