[…] candidates in there, as well as some surprising ones… Of course all you need to do is follow the rules of the competition (it involves buying awesome stuff from your FLGS – so that is awesome) and you can win $2011 […]

Didn’t find anything in rules but I assume it’s only for US-citizens, right?

Vincent, you can participate from anywhere - not just the USA.

Love the show, but it would be cool to have a printed list as well (unless I’m missing something).

We’ll put one out in a spell, Eytan. We’re keeping it audio-only for a little while, to encourage people to have a listen… :)

What counts as a receipt for places like SJG’s e23?

And presumably anything from an entire series you mention counts, right? (Monster Hunters, for example)

Hey Peter… You can just print out your receipt and email to us. That’d work.

Is there a list somewhere other than the audio?

We’ll release the list in text after the Giveaway is over.

Peter, just in case anyone else has the same Q…

Yes, any title in a series counts. The same applies for magazines like Kobold Quarterly and TUO.

[…] The Best of 2011 Podcast at RPG Countdown counts down the top 100 best-selling gaming items of 2011. Take a listen, then buy one from your local game store. If you mail your receipt to RPG Countdown, you and your FLGS are both in the running for $2011 (cash for you, online ads for your FLGS). […]

Limit of 1 entry per person? per household? per receipt? :)

Per receipt, Keith. We would love it if you’d go to all your local shops. :)

Is it ok to send you the receipt per email?
I’m not living in the US.

Sophia, you must mail your receipt. You still have 23 days to get it to us.
