Re: Blue Fontaines Teaser

Even if you're foolish enough to buy a dozen of these mediocre decks, its still over $8 per deck. At $12 per deck, I would say this deck provides the least bang for your buck out of any deck out there. Given that some of his add-ons involve D$D products, you know this whole KS project is just one b...

Re: Problems and Solutions - Main Company BS

Doesn't help much if the same venting goes on every time the companies are mentioned. Time to go old school and nail a manifesto to their door. Worked for Martin Luther. :) Or at least gotta hit their twitters and tell'em to stop dicking around. Thing is, I don't find myself resenting any of them. ...

I, for one, am happy about this :) So what if they said no more S&M? If I like this one, I'll buy it. If not, I won't :) Really? You don't have a problem with people who say one thing then does the opposite? Going back on one's word is bad enough as regular people, as salesmen it's much worse. ...

Re: Ace Fulton's Red deck and Blue deck

I just got them and I love them. The Midnight Fuel said Ivory Finish as well but it was not Ivory at all.... These are the real Ivory finish... Smooth, nice to handle, classy, different. I love 'em. You could compare them to the Aladdins, but they're a bit thinner.

I'm usually working in 4 or 5 restaurants a week and I always use red Bikes. When I'm just fooling around, I use as many different cards as I can. I like to mix it up. I love the Rebels, the Seasons, Tally's are a classic... Verve's, Mechanic Deck I also love... Great handling on those last two...
