Hot little hands? Is that a common saying where you are from? Is it hot there? Edit, I think i may know the meaning. Are you saying that your hands burn to have them and/or are having pain without them? Also I am wondering what part of the world you are in where that phrase may be common.

The Treasured would have been better if it wasn’t on Cartamundi linen stock, ruins the foil effect.

If it had been a two-tone golden hot foil (like Oath Standard Gold-on-Gold) it would have looked amazing.

“hot little hands” is most common in USA - origin unclear…

What the... haha.

Amongst TOTT Dynastinae and Prism which one is better? Im not a fan of the Dynastinae ,but in Prism I believe there is more foiling on back but less foiling on front

I don't think anyone can answer that because it's so subjective.

Which one do you like more?

I like that sample cards of ToTT Dynastinae and Prism were available.... of those two the Prism looked better to me.

As of yet, THE SUCCESSOR is my fav Dynastinae deck.

About the Black Friday ToTT Dynastinae orders, have they started shipping them?

How long they usually need for shipping in-stock decks?

Just curious , the sample cards you received were they court cards or number cards or Aces?

zlexander wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2024 1:46 pm Which one do you like more?

Personally, I like them both because they're both unique, so I don't like one over the other.

I understand , I didn't like the Dynastinae so I'm on edge if I would like Prism or not but the letter to Wylenti seems nice but 20$ shipped for me ,wished these were on Vanishing or Penguin for free shipping

I wonder what is Ararat? Are there any photos of that work? Does it have to do anything with mountain Ararat, lol?

It's only from conversation, but Lotrek had mentioned exploring creating a deck inspired by Armenia. I've kept it in my list but there's no clue whether we will ever see it. I have Hieronymus on my list but that was an abandoned project from many years ago. We also haven't heard anything about Harvest in a while either.

Ararat is a little town 35 minutes from my place

I would love to see an Hieronymus deck from Lotrek. I could be completely wrong on this but didn't he mention this deck right before Guru did and then may be lost interest?

It's been like FOREVER that we are expecting Codex hahahaha, since Lotrek keep saying: it will come, and then silence again hahaha
the last three in the list are intriguing....

Yes, my list includes any projects mentioned or alluded to without any expectations that they will ever come to fruition, in order to document for posterity. No intention of creating additional expectations or trying to get anyone's hopes up by doing so. Some may remain on this list as TBD for eternity, never seeing the light of day.

Hello all. Been out of pocket as of late. Has there been any update on Year 2 Patreon Rewards? Not expecting them soon but just curious about the latest.

Thanks

I have not heard anything in a long time about Y2 Patreon rewards items.

In theory, it's by January per his stated plan of every ~3 months or so for past rewards....but, of course, estimating timeframes is not his strength

January of which decade?

I'm no longer a Patreon member of his, so don't get to see any posts about it, but would be rather nice if he actually did communicate to those backers who paid him hundreds of Euros for stuff they never got. I no longer even get FOMO in hearing about Lotrek decks, I just now want this whole thing to be over with and get what I (already) paid for. Rather sad to feel that way about one of our pre-eminent designers but I'm just fed up with the whole "haha it's just Lotrek" thing.

If you haven't already, you should reach out to him if you're due Year 1 rewards to confirm your address. He had those shipped out already.

No updates on Year 2 as of yet. I'd disregard any timelines we've heard until we get the latest update. I'll definitely keep you updated as I have been so far

I was and going to be out of the loop for at least december. Any updates that I have missed in regatds to the year 2 rewards?

I did receive my Year 1, it's more that I haven't heard anything about the other three years I am owed for.
