Looking forward to seeing the cards.

Not alone with this. Tuck is promising. But me needs cards.

Me too - hoping the cards aren’t the curse part

I do like those courts. The backs... well, I think the design is reasonable enough, but the color scheme makes it a pass for me at the moment.

Still, I wish them the best of success with this offering. I've had only excellent experiences buying from them, and those courts, as I said, are pretty cool and deserve some love.

I'm in the same boat as Allan. The frame on the fronts and backs is besides the colours an even bigger reason for me to pass - not feeling it at all.

@Admins - like Tim - who seems to have had this problem quite some weeks earlier - I can't see embedded youtube links/videos (Safari mobile) anymore either.

I'm curious enough for what Omar did with this deck to head over to youtube. See y'all.

As a troubleshooting data point, I am on Chrome mobile and the embedded video is fine for me.

In summary (based on my understanding on Wake’s review):
- The white border created by the card back design is quite funky
- The back loses points on being too achromatic compared to the courts and Ace that have the shades of colors.
- The theme fits for a pirate
- Conclusion: the deck is definitely custom, but its design felt like it is trying too much

But in my words: the deck is good enough, although I think it could be better if the back has the same color scheme as the courts, as seen on the artist’s IG page

I assume you mean on an iPhone or iPad? They load just fine for me on mine

Harvonsgard · Unread post by **Harvonsgard** » Tue May 03, 2022 11:05 am

Interesting. Which iOS do you use? I didn't had the problem when Tim starting to mention it but now I have a new iPhone and made the upgrade to the latest iOS (and therefore latest Safari mobile I assume). Since then the problem occured to me as well.

Most recent public beta - do you have any Safari extensions installed? Does it happen on wifi and cellular?

Harvonsgard · Unread post by **Harvonsgard** » Tue May 03, 2022 1:52 pm

No extensions, plain iOS standard. Safari as it comes on iPhone.

Great review as always - but by the time it was published you couldn't buy the deck anymore, or did I miss something? Kinda beats the purpose of a review, doesn't it?

Harvonsgard · Unread post by **Harvonsgard** » Wed May 11, 2022 6:05 am

The purpose of a review for me is:

review - a critical appraisal of a book, play, film, etc. published in a newspaper or magazine.

Oh, the Captain's Crate is sold out?

That's what I get for putting it off I guess...

As always let me know please if anyone has one they'd sell me for a good price

EDIT: Actually it looks like there may be some available on Doc's upcoming Ocean's Curse poker chips campaign

MAY 12 10 AM CENTRAL TIME

GandalfTheWhite · Thu May 12, 2022 10:04 am

Was this going to go live like right now? I don't see it. Maybe they are delaying it?

GandalfTheWhite · Thu May 12, 2022 10:06 am

Y'all can ignore my message above lol It just went live

Harvonsgard · Unread post by **Harvonsgard** » Thu May 12, 2022 10:07 am

It's live now.

Looks like the only way to the captains crate is at the $225 pledge level - 70 available

Yep, I've messaged the creator, we'll see what happens in a few days.....

GandalfTheWhite · Thu May 12, 2022 3:21 pm

The chip set looks good and tempting. Folks here collect 'custom' poker chip sets? What do you all think of the ones in this campaign?
