How the game works:
On August 22nd at 12PM EDT, 1,600 of the entries will be revealed as “common” trading cards. They will get the “common” background design and they will live forever as a collectible Punk Trading Card (the first officially licensed trading card of its kind fwiw.)
Entries not revealed as “commons” are lucky winners this round and move 1 step closer to the big prize. In theory, their value also increased significantly by being in the final 900 left standing.
The next round will reveal 500 more of the Punk trading cards as “Aqua Tier Parallels.” Although taken out of the running from winning the Punk, these are now more limited blockchain collectibles that live forever on Ethereum. Those that don’t reveal as Aqua Parallels win this round, and are now in the rarified air of the final 400 left standing.
Next, we reveal 250 Blue parallels. Same process. The 150 left standing are really making things interesting now.
Now… it’s time for 99 Red Parallels to reveal. The winners of this round are in the final 51!
Lastly, it’s time to crown our BIG winner.
Of the 51 entries remaining. 50 of them will become Gold Parallels leaving 1 winner standing as the 1/1 Black Hologram holder.
The holder of the 1/1 Black Hologram will be airdropped the punk.
Punk 1859 will be airdropped to the holder of the 1/1 Black Hologram as soon as feasible after the last reveal. The airdrop will go to the Holder of the 1/1 Black Hologram AT THE TIME THE AIRDROP IS INITIATED.
If you win, DO NOT transfer the winning token unless you want the Punk airdropped to a different wallet.
Very Important Gameplay Mechanic
Tokens 0-249 were randomly inserted into packs from our 2022 Summer Elite Drop and they have some special powers. These specific token numbers are guaranteed to be Blue parallels or better. So, if you want to guarantee yourself of making it to the Blue round or higher, and don’t already have one, these are tokens to chase. The right to hold one of these tokens came from the rip of over 60,000 digital packs. So they were hard to find and their bye in the first two rounds of reveals was well earned!
Also Important to Know
The fate of these entries is NOT pre-determined. An on chain random decides which entries reveal EACH round (using Chainlink). Tokens 0-249 will not be eligible to be revealed until the “Blue Round” as noted but, once we reach that round, these tokens lose their special power and the random treats them the same as all other entries.
Technical Details
At the start of each reveal round, the remaining token ids whose metadata is still unrevealed will be sorted in ascending order numerically.
We will then create a sha256 hash of those token ids, and submit a request to the Chainlink VRF using that hash as an identifier for the result.
With the resulting random number, generated by the Chainlink VRF, we will seed a Mersenne Twister shuffle algorithm and execute a random shuffle of the token IDs.
Finally, we will take the first n tokens from the shuffled list (as corresponds with the reveal round), and those tokens will be assigned the metadata for that reveal round. (Eg, round 1: the first 1,600 randomized tokens will be assigned the metadata corresponding with a “Common” tiered NFT).
Note: This process will vary slightly for the first two rounds. Because the first 250 tokens (token id 0 through 249) are guaranteed to make it to round three, we will exclude them from reveal eligibility for rounds one and two. Beginning in around three, all remaining tokens (including 0-250) will be eligible for reveal rounds.
