Not content to simply give swag away at the end of the month, I've decided to hold occasional secret contests to give swag away throughout the month as well. To keep things lively, I'm not going to announce what the secret contests are until they are over. Think of them as "pop" contests; the best presents are the ones you never knew were coming!
This installment of the Amazin' Avenue Secret Swag Contest will award a prize to the user who:
Posted the most game thread comments in the Mets' four-game series with the Dodgers
The Mets are finally on a roll, winning three of four against the Dodgers and five of six overall. We had a pretty good turnout this week in the game threads, particularly Sunday night's nationally-televised affair. As for the series' overall comments, the top five contributors to the game threads over that time were:
| Rank | AA User | # Comments |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | itsmetsforme | 87 |
| 2 | Simons | 58 |
| 3 | JoshNY | 41 |
| 4 | Greenpoint Ian | 41 |
| 5 | DoctorK16 | 28 |
Congratulations to itsmetsforme, who led the way with 87 comments in the four game threads. His prize is an autographed copy of 100 Things Mets Fans Should Know and Do Before They Die by Matthew Silverman. Matt was kind enough to send us some copies to give away, so you guys are the beneficiaries of that generosity.
There's plenty more swag to give away, and no telling when the next secret contest will start or end. Hooray for mystery!
