HERE IT IS
Welcome to Noble's Sable Extravaganza!!!
Today you get a rare chance to compete in the most noble of contests, the gathering of metal fuzzies!
The contest will consist of each and every person who is willing to start hoarding every bronze sable you can get ahold of. Bug/bribe/flirt/schmooze/convince/persuade/seduce/whine or squire them however you would like.
Once you have said holy grail of ferrets, ship them to me with a piece of paper telling me how many there are and your IMTG NAME so you get credit.
ALL PARTICIPANTS WHO SEND AT LEAST 10 sables during the contest will be compensated with cards that don't suck, if you don't believe me then just take my word and check my karma if you need a reason to trust me, I don't let people down.
There will be prize tiers determined by number of participants and the top 3 competitors will receive bonus goodies.
Tier 1 SableWalkers
Tier 2 Sable Masters
Tier 3 Sable Commanders
Tier 4 Sable Wranglers
Tier 5 Sable Chasers
Value of prizes will depend on number of leading sable count but I have extra gods/walkers and a few other fun things to throw in.
An extra 5-10 sable count awarded to those who work a deal with their local card shop and post a sign for bronze sable bounties and take a picture of said sign posted in the store, if you can get your local card shop to help go for it!!!
See you all in the Sable Stables and happy hunting!!!
Contest ends September First (+/- a week)
Theros sables are FAIR GAME
Pm me for address if you have not already traded with me and need to send a sable herd.

Anoobass cheats!!!
He is winning legally :)
"Legally" is a strong word, I did hold my LGS at gunpoint...but let's not talk about the past.
Is this thread forgotten? Or have u collected literally every sable printed so far?
I will beat you
Quote from: Millionlittlee on August 09, 2014, 10:36:44 AM
I will beat you
Please don't, I already had to sell my soul to get those 150, not sure how I'll be able to get any more than that.
What sorcery is THIS?
U can't change the rules mid game u cheater :P
I sent 40 of them last week?
And if u don't believe that... I sent 10 of them last week...
XD
I sent a binder-full of foil theros fuzzies yesterweek
Last I checked , llamas took terrible records.
Quote from: Anoobass on August 10, 2014, 11:16:54 PM

I'm pretty sure llamas can't even count
I can pet u like I pet my fluttershy if it makes u feel better?
I love my fluttershy!
I'm at 12, unsent. Need moar fuzzies!
If unsent counted I would have 5 million...im keeping them in my closet until postage is cheaper...yea, sounds legit...

Do they make closet size flat rate shipping boxes? Could be something to look into....
Or how about a COD lol.
(That's old school "charge on delivery" for u kiddies)
Quote from: Noblellama on August 15, 2014, 01:43:10 PM
Only sent counts y friend!!!
Of course, I must amass the herd before it is delivered.
What's your total number of sables now
I really hope i win
So long as I'm still winning, everything is ok!
Quote from: Noblellama on August 18, 2014, 03:06:34 PM
Another package came in!!!
Do you possibly know what your total number of sables is?
2-3 weeks? Doesn't it end September first? That's 13 days...
Quote from: Noblellama on August 20, 2014, 09:56:57 AM
Then you will be in my turf and can deliver that shiny baby in person...
And if jasper (the artist) is here then he is going to regret signing.... (I'll bring the whole herd)
I can see that conversation going real well:
Noblellama-" I'd liked you to sign my sables"
Jasper-" yeah sure"
Jasper looks up to see a 8 inch binder being slammed on the table
Jasper has a look of horror on his face before he gets up and runs away
Quote from: Taysby on August 20, 2014, 12:45:06 PM
no no no. it'd be this
Hey can you sign some of my sables?
sure thing bud
*runs to car*
returns with huge heavy box of sables.
"should i wait here for them or what?" ;)
It could always be a mixture of the two
My lead is dwindling, please end the contest now!
Do they need to be sent by the deadline or received?
Neither, contest is over, I win.
I even have the message from llama:
Quote
Gratz anoobass, you are the best at everything and I hope you well as I send you a playset of power nine. Good job sending the most sables ;)
If he had a Playset of power nine, He could just go sell a black lotus and buy all the sables ever
Quote from: Popper23345 on August 20, 2014, 11:05:34 PM

But he can't cause he's sending them to me for winning the contest, duh :P
Sorry, just teasing. Didn't think about the backlash, won't happen again.

I request they arrive before September 8th to count
Okay. I guess I should do a final round of scrounging up fuzzies, then.
I am god now
*Gasp* What is this...sablery
THIS IS BULL.POOPOO.
I call for a recount!
Still call for a recount...
Edit: also I don't vote so that statement means nothing to me :P
Yay you got em :D I can't wait to see a picture of this herd once this contest is done. So many sables...
I counted the ones sent in from the first page
988
Holy Sables
Yay! I still reckon you'll single handedly raise the price of them!

Link sneaks a package across the national boarders!!!
Particle slips in a few as well
I only had to bribe three guards!
Truffle B?
When is compensation announced?
Quote from: Noblellama on September 07, 2014, 03:15:00 PM
After I work some math :)
I have received 3 requests via pm to allow late packages
So here is what I'm doin
The top probably 3-5 spots are locked at end if day Monday the 8th (official end of contest)
I will accept packages until that Thursday Friday as still entered (will still count for compensation but not placement in the ranks)
So say Monday your in 2nd place then even if Gorzo sends in 7000 sables on Thursday then you still get to be second and I have to figure out how the hell he got 7000 sables...
So I'll let everyone know soon as I get it all figured out, should be by the end of next week :)
So I'm not locked? 😢
Just an idea if you are artistic, u could alter 1 sable for each person as a bonus reward or such. Like sablewalkers could get an altered sable with walker abilities. Masters would be a legendary creature with some cool abilities, etc... Would be kind of cool :)
Why, u don't want it backed by 1000 people so u end up having to give away 1000 altered sables?
Quote from: Noblellama on September 08, 2014, 05:25:47 PM
Trickey and Links packages make it in on time!
Does that mean I'm locked in for ninth? :D
I'm so excited. 😁
Did I win?
Nope, disqualified for beating me.

I'd really rather nobody fondled my package...

Shipping and handling is a politer way of saying hopping and fondling...
And I did, but I want to see other people happy with their cards.
yea i wasnt asking you to ruin the surprise and post them, but just in case ppl are technologically unsound, i would love to see awesome alters.
