How long before this gets shut down? Everyone place your bets! lol Also no mention of who the printer is.

TV show licensing is a pain. A lot more legwork than worth it imo. I actually had a GoT deck framework planned but then it evolved into the Magna Carta Deck. I imagine if you have the connections like Albino Dragon the communication funnel is a lot smoother, but as someone on the outside it's a headache.

Absolutely Alex!

After dealing with Universal Studios for the Big Lebowski designs (later revised to the Bowl-A-Rama designs), I doubt I'll ever attempt a Licensed Property ever again. It's not worth the hassle, headaches and risk!

Thanks, Randy

So much costly this deck! And even can't undesrstund the structure of it!

and we all remember what happened the last time someone made a GOT deck....

Well that happens to be Brandon Kirk who had already scammed under Quad City Cards, account deleted since. I think I caught him recently under another account, don't remember the project but I think we stopped it.

Edit - it was the failed Martini deck a few months ago under Absolute Zero, a third account. Must be a moron since he keeps using the same name under each account, lol.

Aaaaand .... Yet more blood spilled.
Pulled, by the look of it. [MURRAY]
