Rising Star New Pack Opening & Card Giveaway - Win Seasonal Card Happy Lappy (Ends Jan. 11, 2022)
Last week I had a Rising Star contest and put up a limited edition seasonal card, Christmas Choir, as the prize.
Let's take a look at the rules for entry from that last post:
In order to qualify for this giveaway, leave a comment with your Rising Star username and share what your New Year Resolution is for 2022. If you don't have a resolution, simply share something you're looking forward to in the new year!
Entries will be accepted until January 1, 2022 and I will select one winner of the S27 Christmas Choir card.
Next, let's see how many entries were received by the deadline: 37. This is a new participation record for my @RisingStarGame giveaways!
Card Giveaway Results
S27 Christmas Choir:
Congratulations to 
"My resolution for 2020 is to learn more about myself and how I can better improve 馃槈 It sounds corny, but this is basically my resolution every year - with varying degrees of success over the years."
I think that's a great outlook and I wish you success in always learning and improving yourself! Now, I'm sending your Christmas Choir card and making sure you know that the Special Mission, Christmas Carolling, is only active until January 6 so make sure you play that mission to win the other two limited edition seasonal cards!
What is my New Years Resolution?
I've thought long and hard about this question and there's several things I'd like to do but I just don't feel sufficiently motivated enough to make an actual resolution. Yes, I need to lose weight and exercise more, but it seems clich茅 as a resolution and I'm bound to fail unless I'm completely into the idea.
A more realistic resolution for myself in 2022 is to read more books for pleasure. I do a lot of reading for work, but that's technical reading. I have long dreamed of being a writer and being a good writer starts with being a voracious reader, so that's what I'm going to set out to do more of in 2022.
New Pack Opening
Let's open up another three packs of cards today:
Pack 1:
Pack 2:
Pack 3:
Let's take a look at the Rare and Seasonal cards I received:

R134 Rachael: 125 Fans, 150 Skill, 4 Luck
R123 Carlito: 150 Fans, 100 Skill, 4 Luck
These are all brand-new rare cards for me! I especially like the purple background of the Rachael card. It adds a really cool depth dimension to the card.

4730 Fans
863 Luck
4539 Skill
107 Cards
Level 44
I moved up one level this week and also received a couple more of the limited edition holiday cards from playing the Christmas Carolling mission! I'll be giving one of them away, read on to find out how to enter!
New Giveaway!
I didn't receive any duplicate rare cards in today's pack opening. However, I did receive a duplicate of one of the special seasonal cards that can be dropped from the Christmas Carolling mission.
I know that some people have really struggled to get these cards to drop for them, so I'm going to give one away here! The S28 Happy Lappy card!
In order to qualify for this giveaway, simply leave a comment with your Rising Star username.
Entries will be accepted until January 11, 2022 and I will select one winner of the S28 Happy Lappy card.
