Subject: Prizes: Top 100 FS Hoops??? Posted by: Janitor - [5645589] Tue, May 08, 11:09 I finished 89th in Full Season hoops. This is my first time ever to finish top 100 (in my 3rd year playing). Have any of you gotten your prizes yet? I haven't heard or gotten anything. Knowing SW's track record, I'm not expecting anything even though it states in their rules that the top 100 get a prize (a hat or something). Just wondering if anything knows what's going on with the prizes. Thanks. | ||||||

Grats Janitor! Haven't heard anything personally. Must really want a hat badly eh?:) Couple months ago I got my baseball prize from last year so it could be a while! | |||||
| 2 | Janitor ID: 5645589 Tue, May 08, 11:43 | Thanks VI. I just want the hat so whenever my friend who plays SW talks trash, I can just point at the hat and laugh. Kinda like a "Scoreboard" reminder that I'm still better. ) | |||||
| 3 | Mike D ID: 423222011 Wed, May 09, 06:21 | Nothing yet for me either, Janitor. VID, my shirt from baseball is already too small, and is about to be cut. ;) | |||||
| 4 | Ref ID: 4828318 Wed, May 09, 19:27 | Are their prizes in MS for top 100? | |||||
| 5 | Mike D ID: 0448920 Wed, May 09, 20:50 | Ref--not sure about the MS cut off as I didn't play. | |||||

Hey today I got a Smallworld shirt in the mail. It's a pretty nice shirt - not a T-shirt but like a golf shirt. Probably'll even wear it to work. I'm assuming it's for Fullseason Hoops. I finished 105th - just out of the money I thought, but I guess with owners having multiple teams I made it. I'm not playing Hardball, and I did pretty lousy in MS hoops - so my guess is it's from FS hoops. | |||||
| 7 | Jmadman Donor ID: 267342622 Thu, May 10, 00:28 | For MS, top 100 are supposed to get a prize. MS this year was also my first time that I finished high enough to get a prize. I thought that smallworld sent an email to check the address before sending out a prize. Anyway has anybody who finished top 100 got anything that would possibly show that any prizes are being sent out. I want my hat to talk to trash. | |||||

The day after division Survivor eliminations, I received an email from prizes@smallworld.com to verify my name and address and all. (I haven't heard back or seen the $100 yet) After fullseason ended and I hadn't received a similar email from Smallworld regarding my fullseason prize, I sent a message to that same address basically asking when they were going to contact winners. I got a reply saying that they were still in the process of "tabulating final scores" or something like that and would contact all winners shortly. It's been a few weeks more now and I haven't heard anything, but at least I know I'm not the only one. | |||||
| 10 | jmadman Donor ID: 911472319 Thu, May 17, 11:05 | Today I got an email from smallworld asking for my address for sending out the Midseason prizes. Looks like we might actually see these prizes after all. | |||||
| 11 | Ender ID: 52438315 Thu, May 17, 11:30 | Received my FS and MS email today. | |||||
| 12 | Dave R Leader ID: 19950318 Thu, May 17, 11:41 | For any top ten finishers, those emails will be sent later today, supposedly. The email I recieved today was only for teams finishing 11th thru 100th. | |||||
| 13 | Janitor ID: 2123168 Thu, May 17, 13:24 | I got my notice. It asks for shirt size. I thought the prize was a hat. ( | |||||
| 14 | Species Donor ID: 304521510 Thu, May 17, 14:05 |
Janitor - the hats are adjustable, so there's no size requirement. Whether a hat will be a part of the package is another thing....I think I got both a hat and T-shirt last year, so maybe you'll be lucky! | |||||
| 15 | pogophiles Leader ID: 3245839 Thu, May 17, 17:25 | Got my MS notification today. Think it's just coincidental that it happened the same day they announced their purchase by The Sporting News/Vulcan Ventures? | |||||
| 16 | Janitor ID: 2123168 Thu, May 17, 21:59 | Species, thanks for the info. Wow, if I get a shirt and a hat then I can look like a true geek with my matching outfit. | |||||
| 17 | Slackjawed Yokel Donor ID: 151152123 Fri, May 18, 21:07 |
Hey, I got my e-mail also for top 100. So I went back in my inbox to see what the other notification had said. It turns out the first shirt they sent me was for a WEEKLY prize winner. Huh, didn't even know they had weekly prizes. Must've been that last week of the season -the one day week! | |||||
| 18 | Mazer ID: 45250242 Mon, May 28, 09:02 |
I finished with 11 13 and 52.But I have not got any notice from SW yet. Does anybody know how to contact SW ? Thanks. :) | |||||

| 20 | Ref ID: 1442849 Mon, Jun 04, 17:46 | Got an email a long time ago about top 100 finish in MS, but haven't received any prizes yet. | |||||
| 21 | 2PaC ID: 46492816 Wed, Jun 13, 15:59 |
i received my TOP 10 PRIZE TODAY It's a beautiful SONY DIGITAL CAMCORDER i'm going to get it priced soon and hopefully sell it (ebay or etc) It's def. worth a good amount of $$ | |||||
| 22 | Dave R Leader ID: 47447320 Wed, Jun 13, 23:03 |
2PaC- geez, you were so worried about getting your prize and now you want to sell it? If you would bother to check, you'd see SW bought it from buy.com for $327. | |||||
| 23 | Mike D ID: 144302820 Thu, Jun 14, 21:59 | I got another water bottle and a SW hat that doesn't fit. Oh well. My kids will enjoy the hat, and maybe I can sell the water bottle on EBay. | |||||
| 24 | Ender ID: 13443221 Fri, Jun 29, 20:31 | Got my hats and water bottles from FS and MS last week, Yeehaw. The water bottles will get used. | |||||
| 25 | Janitor ID: 2123168 Sat, Jun 30, 11:26 | I got the exclusive hat and water bottle also! The hat doesn't fit my fat head either Mike D. ) Props the SW for following through with their prizes though. | |||||
| 26 | Janitor ID: 4667128 Sat, Jul 14, 15:53 | My water bottle already broke. The lid has a crack in it. Piece o' junk! | |||||

"My water bottle already broke. The lid has a crack in it. Piece o' junk!" LoL, i finished 149 and i dont get crap! Guess "nothing" is better than a broken water bottle :p | |||||
| 28 | Edgar ID: 36629198 Thu, Jul 19, 08:36 |
Good thing I live in Europe so I don't get a price even though I finished 19th. Can I play for under your name Mike D next year so at least I can finaly have a chance at winning something? | |||||
| 29 | Mike D Donor ID: 246291122 Thu, Jul 19, 21:06 | Edgar, only if the golden SW hat fits your head. ;) | |||||
| 30 | Edgar ID: 357126 Thu, Aug 02, 06:07 |
Yes the difference between a hat and the camcorder isn't that big nowadays. But I bet the sporting news will make every game a pay game soon.....Or will they? | |||||
| 31 | Mike D Donor ID: 45631289 Thu, Aug 02, 12:50 | Really hard to say, Edgar. I don't know if they want to make every game a pay game, because they certainly will lose a lot of players. They are likely evaluating the way the pay games have gone so far. | |||||
| 32 | Edgar ID: 357126 Tue, Aug 07, 01:50 | Did you play in any of the pay games yet then? I didn't but maybe I would play basketball the basketball pay game if they gaven up the free one. I also have no idea how many people are playing these pay games. | |||||
| 33 | Mike D Donor ID: 66542314 Wed, Aug 08, 21:35 | I have not, and really don't plan to, Edgar. | |||||
| 34 | Edgar ID: 357126 Tue, Aug 14, 02:44 |
This turned out to be our private thread Mike.... Are you ready yet for the new hoops season? A lot has happened in the NBA this summer. One of the more turbulent summer trading in years. | |||||
| 35 | David ID: 424281210 Tue, Sep 11, 06:55 |
Got a email that stated I won.. (top 100) but being a resident of the state of Florida I was not eligible to receive the prize. I think it is just another form of punishment for our voting process! | |||||
| 36 | Willix Sustainer ID: 50650614 Wed, Sep 19, 14:28 | I got the same e-mail David. If I had known Florida residents were ineligible, I would have played under Walk's name! What is wrong with living down here in sunny South Florida?! No funny retorts please. ;-) | |||||
