Dropped my Gold box pledge It's open now

In this last hour of the campaign I wanted to give the most sincerest thank you to everyone who helped support this. It was with these forums that I started Seasons and it's an honor to have been with you guys to close out these next two seasons.

About to drop my KS4 pledge, if any one is still wanting a Gold box set

Congratulations on an extremely successful campaign, Alex!

I got one of each standard deck plus a coin.

You are most welcome. Congrats on a successful campaign. I am sure I speak for many when I say I hope there are other projects brewing in your imagination.

Indeed, congrats on this amazing success Alex ! However I don't understand how a project like this do not cross the $100k mark ...

I thought both the Seasons decks and the Mana decks would exceed $100K. Perhaps the market is so saturated with an abundance of quality custom playing cards constantly coming out that it might be a rare occurrence to see a deck crack the $100K barrier now.

Oh yes so many decks that are comming out lately - it´s easy to pass on many of them but not on the seasons decks

Dammit. Forgot to pledge. Guess I'll wait for the aftermarket stuff.

The BackerKit finally got approved today. For those that still want free shipping in the US and discounted pricing before this goes retail you'll be able to get it here: https://seasons.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The first decks in the series are available as add ons as well! $25 for the pair. I guess Burk WILL own both sets now. I am excite.

You're evil Alex. I thought I was done with this project but nooooo, you have to make backerkit available and drag me back in for an LE set. Lol.

Platinum was V2, nice but not the same as the V1 Gold.

The new seasons on the other hand look awesome. I don't usually go for black faces, but the blue really makes these special. I've added on 2 sets of limited with backer kit, even though its just a tuck job over the unlimited.

I got to kid Alex at 52+Joker about the V1 Gold having both Ohio and Kentucky on the tuck.

I got the LSI Legacy set pledged $195 CD a Ned when I checked out it was $135 USD so that felt good!

Oh no! I'm going to be spending more $ in backerkit ;p
Hope alex can remove the limit on the limited ed though.

So you want that 1,000 deck limit that meant something for the rest of us when pledging to be removed?

By definition it ain't limited if there's no limit!

I think ashe meant the limit on the number of LE decks each backer is allowed to pledge for. Still a print run of 1,000, but instead of each backer limited to only two sets, a backer can get as many sets as he/she wants.

Ahhh.... that makes sense then .

What kind of idiot am I? (A purely rhetorical question - just in case you were starting to list the ways )

Hmm, I guess it probably would be good for this to be raised to a few at least - without letting someone buy 10% of the supply or anything. (There's 124 full sets available just now. - at $48 a set, I can't afford too many, so it wasn't something I noticed originally)

My bad guys. I am relativity new to collecting so we can chalk this up to a rookie mistake.

Haha! No issue, common missunderstanding.

Thought I could but 2x the 2 set limited ed and use one in special occasions!

So I received mine today, haven't had time to fully analyze them open yet, but I'm pretty disappointed that I didn't understand the plan for the tucks in standard vs LE though. I assumed both would allow these decks to be inserted between the prior 2 decks to allow for a continuous design. Meaning the standard set would also have the left design on one side to allow for insertion between the Primavera/Seronda set:


I get the desire to make the limited unique, but it's too bad at least this feature wasn't carried over. Oh well, I guess they will just be 2 pairs instead of a full set, which I guess is more technically correct anyhow.

Also, I didn't get an uncut and don't recall a mention if this is why, but what's with the weird card order in the deck? It's not the usual USPCC grouping by suit, instead a A-6 group, then similar, then almost random, including all the queens together. I can only assume that was to create some kind of better patter on the unut?

just received my tracking information.

Got mine in today, beautiful cards. Anyone know the name of the stacking order they're in?

Its called *arranged for the uncut to look pretty stack*

Sorry about that misunderstanding Nate. I had tried my best to make it clear what the LE decks would look like in comparison to the standard set. I actually didn't even have the connecting LE set until 2 weeks before the Kickstarter. It was a last minute epiphany thing. Had I thought of it first I probably would have split the LE deck designs into this open-ended connections for both decks.

There is a ToM sell going on now. Includes decks, uncuts, and a dual deck display case.
