It's supposed to close on Jan 31st according to the rules.

As for apathy, I really can't complain. After 7 years of spinning the wheel I finally got to 10k pts in 2024 without having to buy anything. To my surprise it got me a free Silver Artisan deck and a very cool metal Elite member card. YMMV.

Curious that he actually has Japanese translation to go with the English and French. The art definitely is different but 32 euro for rest of the world?

Can one just fly down to berlin, go to the warehouse and you know... perform some magic fingers on the abandoned decks? I was wondering if it ever crossed Gio's mind to do the same thing for his decks which were stuck at Deallez. 20 bricks is not alot, but not small either considering some were his...

I now regret my curiosity in clicking the KS link to see just how bad it was. I use to think Michele Hartsoe's decks were trashy and the worse decks I've ever seen on KS. This one trumps Hartsoe easily!

Was curious about this and decided to see what's going on. She updated on Jan 9 with physical card samples. So this project is still live. Glad this wasn't another abandoned project.

Production Update! Holographic samples received and upcoming factory visit.

Thanks for the feedback on that. Considering E's Black series also did well, it never hit me that black fronts were a turnoff for some.

That must have hurt to see those decks damaged like that when you opened it, Laito. Regarding Team Madison, after the non-delivery fiasco, Daniel no longer handles the business and just focuses on content creation. He's been very productive last year. From what I could gather and IIRC from the Patre...

Interestingly, of all the KWP Tally-ho decks, the Black Diamond has appreciated the least. Odd in that it's one of the first custom metaluxe decks and the only one with foil on the backs. I have the deck and it's really shiny. Very nice to play with. But, hey, makes it relatively easier to pick up c...

The Tally-Ho brand is more widely known than KWP so yes, going on Kickstarter will make more sense for the wider audience. Before Cardistry custom decks became a thing, cardists seemed to love the Tally-ho circle backs as the circle shaped helped with the flourishes, IIRC. You can see the most of th...

There are some who wonder what can we do with the points. I managed to hit 10k pts last year (thanks to the 2023/24 wheel which didn't have 25 pts and a few lucky spins) and bought a few decks from T11 directly. The points can also be converted into a discount code at any time, but you can't combine...

I just recently found out about this sometime in Oct 2024. I was puzzled why was PCD saying that their shipping operations resumed after Hurricane Francine hit Florida. They were in Nevada not Florida. (Granted I haven't been buying from PCD for a couple of years so I wasn't aware of the address cha...

Seems like T11 was very quiet this year about the wheel. Started either Thursday Dec 19 or 20th, bases on the rules.and T11 forums. Members will receive one code with each shipped product purchased directly on theory11.com from 3:30pm ET on December 19th, 2024 until January 31st, 2025. Spins must be...

From the cards description, it looks like the reason for the backs is to incorporate the Advocate Pocket Index trick as well. Which explains why the set is so expensive. Or in Madison's case, more expensive than his decks usually are. There's a video at the bottom of the description where he shows h...

Yup, that's correct, +$3 shipping per deck You can do a price comparison to see if it's really worth it with his Amazon store here: https://www.amazon.com/stores/HomeRunGames/page/5AD2F48B-DA31-405F-8C1E-8230B6A64F2F?ref_=ast_bln and his webstore here: https://home-run-games.myshopify.com/collection...

You did? OK to share the retailer who still has Hive 2 in stock?

What is interesting is that he's offering all his previous decks still available as add-ons at a very nice prices. From $5 to $13 on average +3 shipping. This includes the 8-bit decks, Frogger, Triangle, Hawaiian, Magnificent, Hippos and all the reproductions of old decks. Saladee, Mauger, Tally-Ho,...

Michael Scott of Homerungames has released a new deck, the Square deck. Nothing much to shout about, but just the novelty of it. He released the Triangle deck 5 years ago.

Red and Blue are $10, Coloured LE is $35!

If you ever found the Butterfly decks too expensive for your liking, they'll be having a massive BF sale starting 22 Nov till 1 Dec. 50% off many of the special decks, 40% off the std decks. The full list and link below. Worth checking out the YT video announcement as well. Pavel is brilliant in the...

Thanks for mentioning the price. Definitely not worth it at nearly $20 compared to the Gold version. But I wouldn't mind getting it if it's offered as one of the prizes for the Elite points from their annual wheel.

Doh, thanks for the correction. I was posting that after hours of reading reports.

Considering he's already published 2 novels on KS before this, I'm surprised that there's no story to delve deeper into the deck's theme, just 1 short paragraph. Missed opportunity there for me, as I like decks with a deeper story to go with the theme. Gio does a good job with his decks. Even baconw...

15 days more to go with just under $2000 to hit.

Does the creator get to see the number of people who've saved the project? Curious to know the conversion rate for those who save till the final 2 days.

It stopped surprising me when Will of PCD created a separate Tarot online store just to cater to that market. And that was pre-Covid I believe.

Ah, looks like they took a leaf from T11 playbook and ran all the way with the whole special edition set. But, unlike T11, they forgot to release just a standard deck minus the bling. :? :( [MURRAY] Limited Edition Boxed-Set: Two decks of playing cards in a book-style box with linen texture exterior...

Rick's courts is not just another revision of the standard courts, but updating the original Rouen courts design with the current USPCC courts. So you could say it's Rick's interpretation of what the courts should have looked like today if the Rouen designs didn't get corrupted by bad copies. You mi...

Yeah, that's why I waited until things calmed down. Because it becomes such a trouble, The Ark came out to explain that this deck of cards was the beginning of a new series of zodiacs (this year is the Year of the loong in China), and also invited a part of collectors who had bought ark in China to...

Well, that's definitely different. Good range of courts from around the world too. But could be improved, IMHO by putting a little more design on the court faces reflecting the region/country the courts were from or by the rank would have helped. I'm thinking of the way JR did his LT series, especia...

If you backed her current Cursed and Crooked, you can add on the deck for $51 plus $3 shipping. More reasonable but still out of my range.

I would say he's been gone too long from the frontline that newer collectors won't recognize the name and the decks are more standard vs the blinged out versions. He's been keeping busy though with other people's decks like Cobra and Dynamo's Abandoned decks, but his name gets left out or overlooked...

$15 per deck as this deck is part of the Moments series. Meaning it is cheaper and shouldn't be selling out soon.

Moments Open Courts still selling at the same launch price and plenty in stock with most retailers. I'll wait for my local retailers to sell it.
