Playing Card Plethora / Re: T11 Holiday Wheel of Prizes!

It is free... Whether you buy something, or just use your free entry, it is still free! If you got 50 elite points (the second smallest prize) for 30 days, you'd still get 1500 points. If you got the 100 points or more on a couple of days, you could earn yourself a red Jaqk or something good!

I totally agree on this. I have a few times when i swear it would stop on some of the bigger prizes, but then again, 50 or 100 elite points is definitely much better than nothing at all. And even if you really get nothing on a spin, it may cost you at most 5 minutes, an email space and a little emotional distress. I can spin this for a whole year with no real complains.

"From our private reserve, we present to you Mystery Deck, a hand-wrapped deck of playing cards from a collection of rare, vintage, out of print, or otherwise valuable decks. "

Ok. So i know that for the mystery deck, you gamble, and you win some you lose some.

But one...no wait..2 New Erdnase 216 Green Bee Deck from CARC?  :mindf-ck: Falls into..rare? out of print category?

This is what i got

Spin 1 - 100 Elite Points
Spin 2 - 1000 Elite Points
Spin 3 - 50 Elite Points
Spin 4 - 50 Elite Points

I got a free spin twice or so, but since its just spinning again...i don't really bother when i got it.

BTW, i seem to be unable to access the elite points/archive page without getting my account logged out. Anybody has that problem?

What I *don't* love is that the $27 price for the two decks is both too high, and not fair to early birds.  The price of an early bird SE deck is $10, and early bird LE is $13, but if I want 'em both I have to pay $27.

I don't think there's time to fix this before the early birds are all gone, but yeesh.  A $4 penalty for supporting the project with both decks?  Makes no sense.

The $27 pledge is not under early bird special.

So i guess that problem here is that there isn't an "early bird special" for people who would like to buy more than 1 deck, which i also feel is a little disappointing, especially for collectors who usually gets at least 1 of each.

"Tally-Ho" and "Bee"  I thinking its not sense it's in the middle of the box and I've only heard of the bicycle banding.

I kinda understand why he has Bicycle aligned top while Bee and Tally-Ho middle is because that is the alignment of their logos in the standard decks.
But i personally feel if the tuck is gonna be this plain with the maroon branding, the decks would kinda look "messy" for a series. I kinda wish the tuck had a little more colour to blend the branding in together so it would not be so obvious that one is unbranded, one has it top while 2 has it middle. It wouldn't look all over the place. At least that is what i think.

Playing Card Plethora / Re: Uncut Sheet Purchase?

I have 3 of them - MMD #1 #2 & #3

Personally, i feel uncut sheets ought to have something worth displaying more than just a deck of cards and/or repeated back designs.
I am looking at some other uncut sheets and basically those i would go for are if they are transformation decks, if every single card is a different customised design e.g. Ultimate deck or MMD comic decks (back design) or Gaff decks.

Introduce Yourself / Season Greetings~

Hi Discourse,

I'm an interior designer from Singapore, and basically know nothing about cards when i first started collecting them (Well...i still do not know much about them now...) So have been learning a lot through different sites and forums, as i think the card collecting community is relatively small/quiet in this region.

I used to be a collector of all kinds of stuff from cards to bottles to toys...basically almost everything. But now, i mainly limit my collection to playing cards. Started with some cheap decks and now slowly working my way up to a larger collection.

Merry Christmas~
