Hello everyone, Moe here. We’ve just closed the doors on entries for our 1st All-Star MVP contest. We want to thank everyone who joined us on Twitter and tweeted the winning phrase for everyone to see.
We’ve compiled our list of entries, as well as a list of the players participating in the All-Star game tonight, and through the use of abject randomization, we’ve matched each player to a twitter handle.
Now, you may notice that we have more MLB players than COMC Nation members – we noticed that, too. And, some of the starters didn’t even make the list, that’s just how random things got.
So, here’s what we’re going to do. If tonight’s MVP is a player *not* attached to a COMC Nation member, then we’ll head back to Random.org and use their services to pick a winner from the list of entries. One way or another, someone is getting $20 of COMC Store Credit.
So, here are the pairings! Enjoy the game tonight and we’ll announce the winner after the game!
*update*
Apparently, Twitter needs to do some work on their search engine software; we were trying to track #COMCMVP and we missed a few people. If your name isn’t on the list below, let us know by 3pm and we’ll add you to the list. We’ve sorry about the inconvenience!

I’m trying to figure out if I did something wrong, as I tweeted the message on July 8th but I don’t see my name on the list.
Hi David J! We were tracking the hashtag #COMCMVP, and doing daily Twitter searches for that specific phrase. That was the best way we knew how to make sure we got everyone who participated. If you can send us a link to that tweet, I’ll get your name on the list. Thanks!
I also tweeted the message on July 8th and I don’t see my name on the list either. I’m @daniel24303
That never appeared on our searches, but I see it. I’ll add your name to the list in a minute…sorry about that!
Thanks!
Lets go D-Backs 1B: Paul Goldschmidt!!!
Why was I not included on the list. I tweeted it on July 14th at 3:42pm. My twitter name is Evolution316 and my COMC name is Bighousecards
Apparently, we missed a few folks – you should be on the list now. Sorry about that!
I was missed too. I tweeted July 10th under @scottkegarisejr COMC name Kegsgym.
Sorry about that, we got you now! Good Luck!
Thanks Moe
Dang I missed it because I couldn’t find the link oh well

If it’s not too late, @TheTradingBloc was not assigned an entry. Thanks!
Hi, I’m looking thru your TL and I’m not seeing your tweet to gain entry into the contest. If you have a link to it, you can add it to this thread, so we can add you to this list. Thank you!
I looked over your TL several times and didn’t see this tweet. I am so sorry for that. We’ll be sure to include your name in the drawing Wednesday morning for the $20 of Store Credit!
Oh no! What happens now that nobody was assigned the MVP? I think Clayton Kershaw was a close runner-up…but I may be biased…
hi russfeed! Since we don’t have a “winner”, we’re going to pick one of our entrants and award the $20 Wednesday morning! Stay tuned!
Did we have a winner announced yet?
Hi Scott, we announced the winner on Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ yesterday! It was @shahekee. But, we got another contest in the works coming up really soon. Stay tuned!
