Title: Signed Celtic Woman Concert Poster Contest
Post by: aislin on October 20, 2013, 10:01AM
Alright folks, there are our winners!
Congrats to Sammie (SammieSoprano) on winning the signed poster, to Ann Marie (CelticWomanFan425) for winning a copy of HfC, and to Alan (wraith257) for winning the ANJ DVD and poster! You'll be getting an email from us shortly!


Didn't win this time? A little birdy might have mentioned another poster from the just completed European tour... So you might want to look out for that a little closer to after Christmas. ;D

a Rafflecopter giveaway
Contest will run from now till Next Sunday at 11am Central and we will select the winners that afternoon.

1st Prize: Signed Celtic Woman Believe Tour Poster from the 2012 stop in Freiburg, Germany
2nd Prize: A copy of the girls new show, Home for Christmas, on DVD or BluRay (or the DVD/CD combo pack)
3rd Prize: A copy of TGJ on DVD and an (unsigned) TGJ promo poster

A few notes:
  • The only real restriction is you must be 18 or older and a member of the forum. Sorry younger peeps. :(
  • We will ship any and all prizes internationally.
  • Sadly, Kim and I can't enter.
  • The poster is approx 24x36
  • In the poster getting from Ireland to me it had some shipping damage. You can kind of see it right above Susan's head and it's up through the CW logo. It's noticeably wrinkled... but it's not really bad and isn't noticeable on the girls themselves at all. Here's a bigger picture:
    (http://celticwomanforum.com/CWpics/contest/poster.jpg)
    If you don't handle it too much and put it in a frame, it should be fine. We are taking all precautions to make sure that in getting from me to the winner there will be no more damage.
  • The TGJ poster is about the size of a piece of legal paper.
Finally, a SUPER BIG thank you to CW Ltd. for sending us this fantastic poster as well as the TGJ DVD and poster. (Kim and I are supplying HFC DVD.) We really appreciate it and are so glad we get a chance to give some fun stuff out to you all.

If you have any questions, ask and I'll see what i can do.

I'm only sixteen, so could my Mama do that for me, even though she is - unlike me - not a forum member?

...Sure. Just use your forum name and send me a PM with your mom's name and a note that says she gives her consent. The problem is we have to have an address to ship the prize to and we're not ok with having someone underage sending us their address. The internet can be a dangerous place and we're just trying to protect everyone involved... and parents coming after us with pitchforks is a scary idea!

Not a problem. If you win just be sure to give me your real name when I come looking for a shipping address. ;)

I didn't think there was a 22 @ the end of my forum name (I have it sent up to automatically log me in), so I entered only using the name SammieSoprano :( Does it still count?

Yep.

A little clarification here. The raffle widget is by Rafflecopter. I provided it with what questions to ask and it generated the widget you see above and it dumps all the answers into a database. At the end of the contest I push a button and it randomly selects a winner. I'd appreciate it if all your entries were accurate as it makes my job a bit easier, but if you make a minor mistake it won't be world ending and the entry will still count.

Thank you for that! I know the internet can be dangerous, especially for underage girls *cough* But my Mama allows me to do that. In some cases (like this). I do everything for her on the computer, because she has no idea how to use it.

If you look at the widget it should ask you if you want to log in with FB or your email. Select whichever method you used on your phone and once you do, in the upper right corner, it will tell you how many entries you've used.

Post by: aislin on October 27, 2013, 05:07PM
Results are up in the first post. Sorry it took so long, had a few people enter who weren't members and a spammer that I had to weed out before I could have the program select the winners.

A few notes on all those fun questions that were asked as entries:
Favorite girl? This wound up being almost an exact tie between the two Lisas!
Favorite show? Far and away it was Believe. Before I set all this up I would have bet the answer would have been ANJ so I'm a bit surprised by how wide a margin Believe won.

Congrats to the winners!

ETA: Did anyone have any problems or complaints with the raffle widget? Because unless there are any major complaints we'll probably keep using it going forward.

sammie,

I sent it to your email last night, it would have been from aislin@celticwomanforum.com with the subject being "You won the Signed Celtic Woman Poster" or something similar to that. I'll send it again to your PM box here on the forum so look there here in the next few minutes.

Congratulations to all the winners.  I voted for ANJ as best concert.  I think there are two reasons that Believe won.  A lot of the voters never saw ANJ live.  Second, many people vote for the last show that they saw.

I voted for ANJ, even though I am one of those who never got to see it live. Now that I have seen a concert live (2013 World Tour), I do understand how that takes it to another level and could cause one to have an affinity for a particular show. But so many of my all-time favorite CW songs are on ANJ (The Voice, Dulaman, Sky Dawn Sun, Spanish Lady, Mo Ghile Mear and more), I had to give it my vote even though I love all the concerts.

It's funny, the first time I saw Songs From the Heart, I wasn't over the moon about it - but now, it's grown on me so much that I might put it #2 behind ANJ. Believe is great, but I thought it should have included even more traditional songs - perhaps since it was the first special filmed in the US, they thought a heavier pop influence might be appropriate. I hope the title "The Emerald Tour" is an indication that this upcoming show will return to more of its Irish roots.

One thing's for sure, I've never been disappointed with a Celtic Woman show.  :)
