You-Pick-The-Design Sketch Card Give Away!

[Corndog]

 

That is AWESOME news!!!

[roughwriter]

 
 Hello everyone! I forgot that I'd "left the barn door open" so now I have a few more sketches to draw! To prevent any further chaos, I'm officially closing the promo as of today. Thanks to everyone who confirmed their choices and mailing addresses. There are still a few I'm waiting for. I'm currently swamped by a move to a new home, but hope to be finished in 2 weeks. I will start drawing then. I'll keep you all updated. Thanks for your patience!

Okay Guys, I have to apologize to all of you! I picked the worst time to make such an offer, and life has dumped multiple roadblocks in my way. I won't go into useless detail, but I want to assure everyone that I've made a list of all qualifying purchasers, and will fulfill every request made. Before the next Wackys set comes out, you will all get your sketches. Thank you for your patience! And again, I'm sorry.

[quas]

Pete, much appreciation for the update!

[HENRY.R]

I Still havent heard one message from you Pete & I was one of the first to send a PM if not the first & still waiting.

Sorry to hear you're having to deal with all these issues.  Wishing you some relief and success in getting through everything.  And thanks again for your generous offer in the first place

Hi Everyone!
   Things are starting to settle down and I've actually drawn a handful of the sketchcards already! As I've been going through your responses, I noticed a BUNCH of missing information! If I have to reach out to everyone individually it is going to slow things down even more, so please check your communications with me and insure that you have sent me
1. Your mailing address
2. Which sketch you want on Topps stock
3. Which others you want to fill out your list.
4. Be sure you sent in your proof of purchase too, since many emails mention the purchase, but nothing was attached!

To clear up the issue of what sketches will be drawn on, I INITIALLY offered to do sketches on my own stock. THEN I announced that I was going to be given TOPPS stock to draw on. THEN I found out I was only getting 10 blanks from TOPPS, plus a few more kindly donated by Neil. I was originally going to give them away in the order the requests came in, but that would leave almost all of you without any. It seems fairer to me to give one per order until they run out, with the remainders being done on non-TOPPS stock. If this is unsatisfactory to anyone, they can have a 100% refund on any money paid to me for the sketches (which is ZERO, since I'm doing this as a volunteer!) I hope this clears things up for everyone! I will be drawing the ones I have all the needed info on first, so the sooner I get your details, the sooner you'll get your cards! Stay Wacky! - Pete Zies

Hey Pete!

I just checked my communications with you and you should have all the information you mentioned. Please PM if you have any questions. Thanks again for all that you’re doing to keep Wackies alive!

Take care,

Mike

Hi Pete,

Thanks for the update.
I’ve provided you with all of the above, although pieced out across several PMs.
If you think you’re still missing something, let me know.

Patrick

[HENRY.R]

THANKS FOR NOTHING! NEVER HEARD ANYTHING FROM YOU!

[quas]

PM sent.

[Corndog]

How are things going?

[roughwriter]

Yours is actually drawn, and I will be doing more as time permits. Hope to get them all done within the next 30 days or less!

I'm not sure why the Universe is conspiring against completion of these sketches, but just as I'd developed a good head of steam a bunch of new roadblocks fell into place! I've started up again, but wanted to ask those waiting a question. Would you all prefer them mailed at once, or as they are completed? I can't decide which would be better received. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

[quas]

All at once.  Fewer mailings for you and a marginal additional amount of patience on the part of the recipient. Just one person's opinion...

All at once would be best! Thanks! Looking forward to receiving them.

Agreed - all at once...

[lucidjc]

All at once.

PLEASE make a list when you are done. Since you won't answer us, we don't know if you have our information.

[vahsurfer]

All at once Please

I'm also voting "All at once."     

[roughwriter]

I'm in the home stretch! A few housekeeping details still need to be attended to. The proof of purchases most of you attached to your messages did not display on my end, so I'm missing some mailing addresses from DeMented Tomatoes, Lavirus, and Henry R. (and Henry, I need your 2 sketch selections too!).

[vahsurfer]

1 - Thanks for the Update
2 - For keeping your word
3 - For all you do
4 - Thank you from all of us for your kindness and generosity to our community and the art of Wackies!

Let me second what Richard just said.  Pete this is an awesome gesture and a great way to let the Wacky community know that we, as contributors, care and appreciate all they do to keep Wackys going!  Well done Pete and happy to hear you’re close to getting’em all done!

I THIRD THAT MOTION - PETE STAY WACKY AND THX AGAIN!!!

[Dr.M]

Thanks Pete! Looking forward to those sketches! Are you going to post a picture of all of them, once you’ve finished them all?

[roughwriter]

I have come to the conclusion that there is some sort of curse on this project! Even things I couldn't have imagined have happened to delay completion. My wife threw her back out. A hurricane went right over us. My elderly father was hospitalized from a fall and required my care while convalescing. I am frustrated beyond description! In my rush to pack up the cards during moving to a safer place during the hurricane, some fell out and got banged up. I also lost track of which stock I was using. Everything is a mess. I'm sorry to vent like this, but I never expected a simple give away to turn into this! I apologize, and will finish this as quickly as I can!

[Corndog]

OMG!!! My prayers and thoughts to you and your family!!! God give you strength and grace!!

[Lavirus]

Don't sweat it, family comes first! You're doing us all a massive favor, when the skies clear you'll get to it.
