THE EYE OF JUDGMENT- FREE CARD FRIDAY RESULTS

Posted by Chuck Lacson // Associate Product Marketing Manager, SCEA

Wow.

I think we knew that Free Card Friday was going to go over well, but we had no idea how well. The blog is used to taking in a good amount of traffic, but apparently it wasn’t ready for the EOJ community! We had an overwhelming response and we want to thank everyone who participated. Confirmation emails are going out today to the first 500 people that submitted their info, you should be receiving cards in the next 2 weeks.

For those of you who have been hanging in suspense, sorry for the wait. Thousands of addresses were submitted and there were a “ton” of duplicate entries and incomplete submissions that needed to be scrubbed so now we can finally contact the card winners. So, if you’re wondering why it took so long to get a confirmation, now you know.

For those of you who didn’t score the cards this time around, thanks so much for participating and don’t feel bad. Based on the response last week, we have decided to do …

Free Card Friday PART TWO!!

Note: This is for the folks who “didn’t” score cards last week.

If you were one of the lucky 500 who won, if you submit your info again for Free Card Friday Part 2, it will be counted as a duplicate and removed.

(Sorry ya’ll, but we want to spread the wealth.)

So if you didn’t win last week, be sure to dial into the blog this Friday afternoon (5:00 PM PST) for a “second” chance to get these cards.

Same cards, same rules apply. (Don’t worry- Jeff fortified the PS Blog for the next wave!)

Till then, have a great week!

Thanks for the Cards ^_^ just read my mail

and at 44 – Local is still better then buying online.. but glad to see somewhere in Canada has the cards because Alberta SURE DOESN’T. T_T

I got my confirmation email, yay!!!

Once again I set out for my weekly journey to find “ANY” EOJ cards.

Target: None, Electronics person didn’t even know what they were till I pointed out the game in the case and gave a detailed description. I think he is going to buy the game. They had 2 peg hooks with labels for the Set 1, but has been empty for over a month.

Wal-mart: None, I went to 5 different Wal-marts. They have never had them. I would tell you what employee’s tell me when I ask about them, but you would wet yourself with hysterical laughter.

ToysRUs: 1 beat up Wood Theme deck from Set 1, nothing else. They have no idea if Set 2 will ever come in.

Gamestop: I went to 3 Gamestops. Each store only had 2 booster packs from set 2, which of course I bought them all out.

So for a whole days work of driving around? 6 booster packs from set 2, of which only 3 were new cards.

Now if I could only convert all the multitude of duplicates I have into Gasoline to cover the entire day of driving around it would be perfect. I tried holding the duplicate cards up to the headlights on my car to see if it would read them, or at least transform into a Parmetic Deathspeaker, but alas no.
HAPPY TIMES

I dont have the game but plan on buying it to get the eyetoy. So the free cards couldnt hurt if I can cath it next time around.

UntamedLion | May 8th, 2008 at 6:07 am

maybe we can have a free promotional email address list contest, where the first 500 to post get to have their site advertised to everyone who signed up for the free promo cards! ;)

LANfill | May 8th, 2008 at 6:10 am

Tried to get a card last Friday, but failed do to lack of internet (I used my phone and the server crash made me think i lost service in the area). :( I will be trying again this Friday WITH the internet this time!

E-CAPITAL | May 8th, 2008 at 6:22 am

Another winner here…Thanks Mark and Chuck for all the hard work.

BBBoT | May 8th, 2008 at 6:40 am

I think it’s great that you’re doing a second one for people who didn’t get in on the first batch, but I’m disappointed that it’s the same time again. I reloaded the page all day last week, and then finally saw that it would be 5PM (8PM EDT) when I’m unavailable. I logged in as soon as I could after that but I just got the email saying I wasn’t in the first 500. Now the next giveaway is at the same time again? Wouldn’t it make sense to do it at a different time to give other people a chance?

dmilano23 | May 8th, 2008 at 7:24 am

Wait a minute, i didn’t even get an email saying i got in or not, what does that mean???

Chuck Lacson replied on May 8, 2008 at 12:15 pm

Possibly your email was entered incorrectly. In anycase, try again this Friday!

COOL__JOSH | May 8th, 2008 at 7:29 am

I missed it last week thank you for the second chance :)

seiven | May 8th, 2008 at 7:40 am

WOOHOO got my confirmation email

jrmayer87 | May 8th, 2008 at 8:25 am

hey chuck, i have a question! i got neither a yes you got it email or a no please try again email… if i did happen to be one of the first 500, would i still get cards even if i didnt get the email? (i might have entered my email wrong :))

Chuck Lacson replied on May 8, 2008 at 12:17 pm

That could be the case, to be safe you can try again this Friday.

Real Gambler | May 8th, 2008 at 8:56 am

@Tristan: Seeing all the complaints about the fact that cards are unavailable almost anywhere make me wonder… Could you imagine how many players this game would have today, if cards would have been as easily available as MTG or Yugioh???

In Canada, there’s only a few stores that are selling the game itself, and most of the time, it’s in the accessory section, not in the game section, so when people look at it, they likely don’t even see A game, but just an accessory, the camera. And since no cards are available anywhere, there’s absolutely no visibility whatsoever.

Could you imagine if this game was really getting some shelf space in most stores? It’s not the Playstation Blog server we would bring down, it’s the whole internet : )

With decent visibility, I could easily assume we would be five time as many as we are today…

BTW: Why did you mention EBgames for Canada? Did you find one somewhere that sold the cards??? Because so far, they have been the most unfriendly place, EoJ wise, since they never had any cards (as far as I know), and they usually hide the game itself under the counter, IF they have it.

Shacks | May 8th, 2008 at 9:28 am

Keep this up and these cards will not be rare at all. LOL

DancingFighterG | May 8th, 2008 at 9:52 am

Yo, this is DancingFighterG. Didn’t get the cards so I’m hoping tomorrow I can get them. Was disappointed :(

kdarkone | May 8th, 2008 at 9:59 am

Checked my e-mail this morning and behold what I found… A confirmation e-mail stating I am a lucky winner. Woohooooooooo.

Thanks to everyone at Sony who made this promotion happen.

And it just goes to show you just what a strong community EOJ has.
