26 entries!! By pure votes, @clifton would win (and I agree he has an awesome photo) but he didn’t post a pic of the forum with his yo-yo, so sadly not eligible.
So let’s look at the next six and factor in the story with the pic!
Also I am throwing in a SURPRISE fourth winner of a General-Yo ministar based on random selection… from the above list, Google will now generate a random number:
Please contact me via PM if you won and provide your address. I’ll try to get your yo-yo out to you ASAP but I may be slightly interrupted by some thanksgiving holiday travel.
Congrats to the winners, and congrates to @codinghorror for the contest. My throw was one of the most beat, but my story was pretty meh compared to some of the other entries.
1st , 2nd , 3rd and bonus prize have been mailed out and the majority already received.
One thing I thought you all should know, @yoyo_girl_700 asked if she could send her prize to a friend who was affected by the California Camp Fire. That was such a generous gesture that I was also inspired… and asked her if she would permit me to send a second yo-yo (of equivalent value, a MIB bimetal CLYW) to her friend, so both of them could “win”. She graciously agreed. More winners = more awesome!
Thank you to everyone who participated, and I hope everyone enjoyed the stories of well-loved and played yo-yos!
