Star Trek CCG Tenth Anniversary Contest #1:
The First Contest
April 2, 2004 – CONTEST IS CLOSED
We promised you contests, with a chance to win Tenth Anniversary foils,
Necessary Evil foils, Tenth Anniversary commemorative posters, and more.
And here's the first of ten, count'em, ten Tenth Anniversary contests, each
of which will have ten winners. It's... (drum roll) ... The First Contest!
I can hear what you're thinking now: "Well, isn't that an imaginative
title for the first contest!" Ah, but this isn't just the first contest
– it's the "First" contest: all about various "firsts"
in Star Trek CCG over the years. If you know enough about the "firsts,"
you could win! And even if you don't, you still have a chance for a consolation
prize. Just select an answer for each of the questions below, fill in your
contact information, and send your entry.
Now, how are we selecting the winners? First, we will randomly select awinner and two runners-up from all completely correct entries. (If there
are not three entries with all ten answers correct, winners will be selected
from those entries with the most correct answers.) The first three places
will receive the following prizes:
1st place: A complete 18-card Necessary Evil foil subset plus
a commemorative poster. 2nd place: 8 Necessary Evil foils (random selection) plus a commemorative
poster. 3rd place: 4 Necessary Evil foils (random selection) plus a commemorative
poster.
Fourth through tenth places will be randomly selected from ALL complete
(you must answer all ten questions) and valid entries received, regardless
of the correctness of the answers, to receive the following prizes:
4th-9th place: One Necessary Evil foil (random selection) plus
a commemorative poster. 10th place: One AI Jean-Luc Picard, Starship Captain (0 P 4) plus
a commemorative poster.
You have until Friday, April 2nd at 5pm Eastern Time to submit your winning
entry. Good luck!
General note on all the Tenth Anniversary contests: In some cases,
answers may be found somewhere on the www.decipher.com website (though you
may have to dig to find them!); other questions may be – well, let's
just say "more obscure" – long-time players with equally
long memories (and those who save everything) may have an edge here.
The home pages for Star Trek CCG are located here: Second
Edition and First Edition. A couple
of tips for First Edition sleuthing: Not all expansions had "expansion
areas," but those that did are generally linked to the First Edition
card lists page. Also, some outdated First Edition web sections are not
linked to the First Edition home page, but are still accessible if you know
where to look. Hint: look at some of the "old format" pages, such
as the card lists page.
