Grats to the winner of our Spectral Tiger Mount

by Mike Schramm Jul 30th 2007 at 1:00PM

We have to give a big shout out of "Grats!" to Keane, commenter #2329 and random winner of our ginormous Spectral Tiger Mount contest. We sincerely thank all 5920 of you who entered (!), but we only had one mount to give away, and Keane (above) got it. He says he can't run through Ironforge now without getting bombarded by "OMG WHERE U GET THAT" whispers. I have to say: even I'm jealous. Looks awesome.

Thanks again to all the folks at Upper Deck for helping us out with the mount-- don't forget that the actual STM card is a loot card in the new Fires of Outland booster packs, which release on August 22nd, but which you'll be able to get your hands on at the sneak preview tourneys, held all over the country August 11-12th. And of course we'll have more contests coming soon, so keep watching.

Grats to Keane, you lucky, lucky, Spectral Tiger-riding commenter, you.

Wow!!! That looks great! Darn it, I was at SDCC and didn't know about the contest for this. I did try to bribe the Upper Deck guys at their booth though... no dice... darn those scrupulous employees of theirs... :-(

Keane Jul 30th 2007 3:12PM

Congrats...these are going for over $400 on ebay. If I got one I think I'd be tempted to trade it in-game for 5000g to get my epic flying mount.

WTG Keane. That's one mount that will never need to be pimped.

Dabura Jul 30th 2007 4:34PM

On the comment numbers-- activated comments appear in the order in which they were posted, but they don't show until they're actually activated. Additionally, the system periodically deletes spam comments from the listings. So if Keane's number now is different than it was when I picked the winner, it's because a comment got added or deleted from the page, either because someone activated their comment late, or because we deleted a spam comment.

Nevertheless, Keane is our random winner, as he was comment 2329 when I picked him last Friday. Grats again to him.
