2012 Unofficial Pokemon Nationals After Party Contest!!!! Free Tickets to a Concert with Good Luck Varisty, PK Fire, and Rival Summers

A big hello to all you OHKOers out there. 

Nationals last year was great, but it just was missing some rock and roll.  That will not be the case this year.

I am here to confirm to you that there will be a Pokemon Nationals After Party this year.  On Friday June 29th, the first official day of Nats, there will be a concert after the Swiss rounds are over.  It will be held just a couple miles away from the convention center at the local VFW.  Here is the exact address: 1850 South East Street, Indianapolis, IN 46225.  It is just a little jaunt from the convention center, and the concert will start soon after Swiss Rounds end (officially scheduled to start somewhere around 7:30 local time).

The concert will be headlined by some of the craziest and most attractive indy rock bands from the midwest.  Here are the bands that will play:

  • Good Luck Varsity.  Here is their link, here is a link to my favorite GLV song.
  • PK Fire.  Here is their link, and here is a link to an episode of the Noozles.  Sorry PK Fire, but I couldn’t find a good video out there, you guys have the best name, that should count for something.
  • Rival SummersHere is their link, and here is the link to my favorite RS song.

There will be a $3 cover charge that will be used to cover the rental of the venue.  This is a really cheap cost to join what will be a very cool event. 

I shall be there, it is sure to be a good time for all involved.  It will be nice to get a chance to connect with all different people from the Pokemon world and blow off a little bit of steam.  I know these bands are really cool and it should be a great time.

So make sure you guys plan to have a ride to the VFW right after Swiss rounds are over.  Mark your calendar now, cause it should be a great time.

Contest

Sure the tickets are cheap, but why not party on the tab of Pikkdogs?  To help promote the concert and as a part of my ongoing 200th article celebration, I will give away a pair of tickets to each of the six winners of our 2012 Nationals After Party Contest.

Here are the rules.  The contest will be open until 11:59 PM on May 15th, 2012.  The contest is open to everyone except me and Ed.  Everybody can play and win, but obviously you will have to be in Indianapolis for Nationals to redeem your tickets. You can enter multiple times, but you may only win once.

So here is what you need to do to enter the contest.  The way to win this contest is to send an email to me (pikkdogs@onehitko.com) and answer only one of the questions below.  Entries that answer more than 1 question will not be entered into the contest.  There will only be one winner for each answer, and the first person to answer the question wins that prize.  If you answer a question and are the first one to do so, you cannot be wrong, just as long as you write something like “Answer #2: Chris Webber”, you will win.  The final requirement is that the subject title on the email be “OnehitKO Contest Answer”.  So all you have to do is be the first one to answer one of the questions below, and have “OnehitKO Contest Answer” in the subject line of an email to “pikkdogs@onehitko.com” and you will win.  Here are the questions:

1.  What do you like most about the Noozles?

2.  Why do you think Pedro and Tom Bosley are enemies?

3.  What is the thing you like least about the philosophies of Soren Kierkegaard.

4.  Who would you like to see Pikkdogs interview next?

5.  What is your favorite band of all the bands that will play at the Nationals After Party?

6.  What food is better to have while shopping for furniture than meatballs?

 

So all you guys gotta do is be the first to answer one of these questions, and I will buy you two tickets for the 2012 Pokemon Nationals Unofficial After Party with Good Luck Varsity, PK Fire, and Rival Summers.  So get those emails out as fast as possible, and if you win I will send you an email that will ask you for your name, and those will go on a list that will get you in free to the concert.

So Long and Thanks for all the fish.

TeamOmar.com 1 Year Anniversary Contest

Well, its been an entire year.  December 20th 2010 marked the one year anniversary of www.teamomar.com.  The site has came a long way in a year.  It has grown from a site that organizes information for a small amount of people, to being a global website that is known for its Pokemon knowledge.  Ed and I are really excited to see the website grow into what it is today.  So a big happy birthday celebration goes out to all of our readers and all of our freinds who have came and written articles.  I don’t wanna leave anyone out, but I’ll try to give a good shoutout to those who have given us articles: Thanks to Bittyboy, Andrew, Andy, Ava, Pokemon Dan, Omar, and Jona. 

To celebrate our 1st birthday we are giving back to you guys, the readers that have chosen us one of your favorite sites.   We are instituting a contest, winners of this contest will win one of four prizes.  The contest is a bit of a treasure hunt, but we will get back to that later.

We originally had the contest idea last summer, we were just days away from starting the contest, but because of circumstances beyond our control we were forced to scrap it.  Well, now about 6 months later we are bring it back for another go.

The contest goes like this.  Below, we have 14 questions for you that deal with information from the TCG, the video game, and this website.  There are also two questions that deal with some of your personal information, this is just done to prevent cheating.  This contest does require that you include your POP ID and Age.  We are using this information only to make sure that each person has an unique/individualized answer, and we will not do anything else with it.  So as for the contest, find the answer to each question and do what the step has asked you to do with it.  For example, if the question asks you to add the HP of Uxie La to the number of Magikarp that Ed ran in his 2010 Cities deck, the answer would be 74.  Then you would carry that number onto the next step and keep on going till the end.  Here are the Questions:

1.  Start with your pop ID
2.  add the number of damage counters Gengar SF’s “Shadown Room” attack would do to Bastiodon Pt
3.  Subtract the number of wins that Cheffords had in the 2010 Pokemon U.S. Nationals
4.  multiply this by the number of Pokemon Violet City Gym Leader Falkner had has in Pokemon Heart Gold
5.  subtract the amount of damage Kabutop’s MD’s “Chop Up” attack does to Benched Pokemon if he has an expert belt attached.
6.  add the number of Slowking Primes that Pikkdogs used in his Slowpluff deck.
7.  add your age
8.  subtract the level of Celadon City Gym Leader Erika’s Vileplume in Pokemon Blue
9.  add the number of HP that Exploud SV has
10.  add the number of Volbeat and Illumise that Pokemon Dan ran in his Triumphant Pre-Release deck.
11.  subtract the number of coins that a porygon costs in the Celadon City Game Corner in Pokemon Crystal
12.  add the number of coins that you flip for Jirachi Ul’s “Star Dust Song” Poke-Power.
13.  add the number of separate pictures that Ava drew in her “artwork” article
14.  subtract the level in which  Machoke learns the attack “Seismic Toss” in the Pokemon Blue, Red, and Yellow versions.

birthday cakeThis contest is open from now until December 31st, 2010.  If it’s 2011, you’re too late. All you have to do is complete the contest, and send your age, POP ID #, and the answer to the contest question to anniversary@teamomar.com with “TeamOmar.com Anniversary Contest” as the subject.  If you do not have a POP ID # (or are very paranoid and don’t want us to know yours) then send us an email with “ID Number Request-Team Omar.com Anniversary Contest ” as the subject and we will send you a number that you can use in its place.  Though we will try to respond promptly, we can’t guarantee that we will get back to you immediately over these holidays (especially if you ask at the last minute).

If you are chosen as a winner, we will contact you via email about how we can send you your prize. Entries must be received by midnight on December 31st. Unfortunately we are not able to accept any entries from outside of the contiguous 48 states, because of concerns with shipping. So we apologize to all of our foreign fans, we do love you guys, but it just isn’t possible.  And, of course we can only accept one correct entry from one person.

We will randomly select 4 correct entries and those will receive a prize.  We have four prizes available:

  1. One Pokemon TCG Tin
  2. 2 Packs of HGSS Triumphant
  3. One pack of 2010 Play Pokemon Holo Energies
  4. Both the Top and Bottom half of Ho-Oh Legend HGSS.

Winners will be able to pick their choice from the available prizes. We will contact the first winner, and they will select a prize. Then we will contact the 2nd place, and they will select from the remaining prizes and so on.

We will reserve the right to change the prizes or make substitutions at any time (but we don’t see this as likely). We also reserve the right to disqualify any participant (or even cancel the contest) if we feel that it’s necessary. I only say this so we’re covered just in case someone posts all the answers or something like that.

So that’s it for the rules, now all you have to do is figure out the answer and submit it (your POP ID and age) to anniversary@teamomar.com before midnight on the 31st of December.

Good luck.
