Hey guys, just a quick history as I have run group breaks under the name "Boxbreakers" for 6 or 7 years and have a couple thousand break videos on Youtube under my usual ID of Crpalmi. After running 5-6 regular breaks each month I decided to hang it up last Spring and just enjoy the hobby for a bit. Now a year later I have decided to bring back just one of my ongoing groups that was called the Casebreakers. This group would break a case (or multiple if low end) of a newly released 2014 FB product. We would average about a break per month but due to varying release dates we may break a product 2 weeks after the last one and then have a 7 week break until the next one releases so it won't be on a regular schedule. You join by selecting any available team that you would like to claim, and you then have the rights to retain them for as long as you choose to continue in each of our new product breaks. I will do my best to keep the cost to about $50-$60 per slot but price will vary depending on the cost of the product, and of course the more participants we get the more product we can add to the break.
Some changes; for those of you that participated in my previous breaks, there will be some changes. Due to costs I shut down the Boxbreakers website, don't do the premier Photobucket account, etc. so there will be no pics and all the info will be maintained in this thread. For the first time EVER this will be done as a live break. That's a big change for me but I am trying to keep this as simple as possible and promote the banter that we used to get in the early years. I'll test out a few venues before deciding on which to go with but for those of you that have done it I'm open to suggestions. I am still trying to avoid Paypal and their tax laws so I prefer payment by either bank check or the easiest is Blowout Gift Cert as that will allow you to pay via CC or Paypal. If direct paypal is your only option, I can make it work...just trying to avoid it if possible.
Because we will focus on 2014 products, the first release will not be until June 25th. That gives us plenty of time to gather participants, and by claiming a team I ask that you stay with the group for the first break but you can change your team after the draft and all the way up until the unclaimed team draft starts a few days prior to the break.

Usual small print;
- You get every card pulled from your team but I will include all base cards at your request only so please let me know when we break if you want all, just a player or two, or no base at all.
- Hits go to the owner of the team that is stated on the card (not by the uniform worn)
- Cards pulled of unclaimed teams will be randomized amongst all the participants with full priced slots (draft teams will not count as entries in the randomization)
- Multi-player cards will be awarded to the owner of the team that is represented most on the card (ex; a card with 2 Colts, 1 Brown, and 1 Lion goes to the Colts). If it's a tie, it goes to the participant who owns the most teams represented on the card. If that's a tie, it goes by player positioning and will go to the owner of the team on the top (if top/bottom), the left (if left/right), or the front (if dual sided).
- If you decide to not participate in a break, your team will be up for grabs for anyone to claim and they will then hold the rights to retain that team for as long as they choose to continue.
