Project Hit The Deck II officially went online on December 1, 2015!
The Basics
Project Hit The Deck II is based off the original Project Hit The Deck by Zane Savage, Stacy Shaffer and Jeremy Daniels of Autograph Weekly. It involves sending out regular playing cards to get signed TTM (hopefully on the face of the card). The catch – you have to provide a convincing argument why you had that particular person sign the card.
The Rules
- Only TTM’s received December 1, 2015 – April 30, 2016 on playing cards will count.
- Each TTM must have a “story” ie: why they signed that particular card. See below for examples.
- Only 1 return per celebrity is allowed for the entire project. If one person gets a celeb, and someone else gets them as well, the second return is invalidated (but is still cool).
- All returns must be mentioned in a video on YouTube with a mention of the project, and a link back to this page. In return, we will link your channel here on this page.
- Each successful return is worth 1 point. If you get more than 5 in a day, you get an extra .5 point. An extra 10, 1 extra point, etc.
- The goal is to build an entire deck of 52. However, if you want to use multiple decks, that is still allowed.
- If a return doesn’t make sense, a jury of TTM peers will decide if it counts or not.
The Grand Prize
- 2 rolls of 100 count US Forever stamps ($98 value)
- 1 year subscription to StarTiger (new or renewal)
- 2 surprise gifts
- Other prizes to be announced
Examples
- Queen of Hearts – Anybody from The King of Queens TV Show
- Jokers – any comedian
- 2’s – Anybody who was in a sequel
- 3’s – Anybody from Three Kings
- 8’s – Anybody from 8 is Enough
- Jacks – Anybody named Jack
- 5’s – Cast of Party of 5, has a 5 as their jersey number, etc.
You get the idea.
