Transcript
- 0:16Hi, this is Michael Hurley from Ghost Galaxy and you're listening to our CON's
- 0:20corner. All right, what's going on? Everybody? I am the one,
- 0:22the only, the wh okay? I he joined here by Well,
- 0:25we don't have the normal. I don't know what's going on with Z.
- 0:28Anybody heard from him? Is he alive? It was alive yesterday, it
- 0:32was alive some discords earlier. We're going on up. Yeah, we're going
- 0:42on. Z watched, he's on. He's on, you know, summer
- 0:47break now. So you don't know what top it is, Well, what
- 0:50it is is you played it's coming and you only got the top half for
- 0:56the time. I only got the top half, is Z? Yeah?
- 0:59I'm oh? Is that the good half? I don't know. I'm not
- 1:03sure, but either way we got well, I want to say, buckets.
- 1:11We do have a lot to go over this week, but it's not
- 1:15it's not all good. So we're we're gonna go through the good, the
- 1:18bad, and the ugly and then the in between stuff. So we're gonna
- 1:23start off. ABR is officially closed out for season nine. Drafts Corps tell
- 1:27us about ABR. Yeah, so it is, uh, it is officially
- 1:33done now and um. Uh so I think last time we talked about hey,
- 1:38we thought we know, we knew who was gonna win, and uh,
- 1:44I think I think that was correct. So we ended up our team
- 1:48what was Me? We ended up in third place overall. Um, and
- 1:53so that was overall pretty pretty good run. The Uh I'm looking at the
- 2:00wrong sheet here. I'm trying to get to the official I just want to
- 2:05say, see, people, we do protect things correctly. Sometimes. Yeah,
- 2:08it would a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and again, I
- 2:10suppose, but this is you could go ahead and find it based on numbers.
- 2:16I mean, numbers are something we don't need to go into all that.
- 2:20We were just we were correct, yea, So here we go.
- 2:25Here's here's it. Here it is okay. So first place, as we
- 2:30as we thought, was Inspector Gadgets. So that's J. T. Russell's
- 2:34team, So congratulations there and then edging us out by just one point in
- 2:39second place with a semi automatic night a Pulse, and then what was Me?
- 2:44That's my team, Doctor Sheep's team, third place, fourth place in
- 2:50the playoffs, Disruptive dinos Um, and then a whole bunch of other teams
- 2:57ewalk, what what place? We're your team? We were not in the
- 3:00top four, not in the top four. About the top six, I
- 3:07don't know. I only see this top four coming from Flaming Hobo. So
- 3:10that's where I'm gonna remember this season number nine. All right, all right,
- 3:14a right, fair enough, fair enough. But it was a lot
- 3:19of fun. We had an overall we had a really good team, and
- 3:21there was lots of good, good chatter and uh, you know, people
- 3:24test in decks and stuff, so that's what makes it fun. So definitely
- 3:30recommend folks check out ABR season ten when it comes around, or ABR what
- 3:37they're calling season nine point seven five, which is coming sooner. M hmm,
- 3:45yeah, I talk about that. I'll talk about that three. Come
- 3:50on, Harry Potter fans, we're gonna go on all right, all right,
- 3:54sorry sorry, yeah I said point seven five. Sorry, but yeah,
- 4:00so because Whoe is out on TCO now, we're gonna do a little
- 4:05woe interlude league, a short league. Um so it's gonna be a fewer
- 4:12number of of weeks, but it's all woe only woe, woe all the
- 4:17time. Yeah, whoa on, whoa action. Yeah, giggety giggity.
- 4:23Um, so right now looks like tentatively our kind alliance sealed adaptive. Oh,
- 4:28then unchained and then maybe TRYAD although there looks unchained up with I guess
- 4:33that's just I guess unchained is just a bunch of old cards. So yeah,
- 4:39so there is an unchained week in there, and then potentially TRYAD or
- 4:43if somebody comes up with a good jank idea this early in the in the
- 4:46go, we can only only has three coping generators three or has to have
- 4:53at least TAD. I don't you know, but we have right now?
- 4:57But we who oh yes, oh gosh, I don't know why I didn't
- 5:02absolutely even enough BLOURB decks on the market right now to produce a blurb week
- 5:08net deck blor week. Then I'm able to pull BLOORB decks left and right,
- 5:14So anyone needs them, just you reach out to how many do you
- 5:16have? I don't have any yet? Um I have. The first deck
- 5:20I ever opened at KFC was Blurb. The first uh savior of Keyborge deck
- 5:28is blurb blurb coming out left and right here that could be the jake just
- 5:32straight up debt deck necked up. Whoa there we go. Hmm. By
- 5:39the way, if you were all wonderings Z watches over, we found him.
- 5:42He's here. M hm. So you said you're gonna be late,
- 5:46so I watched the show with my wife. You're going to be said a
- 5:49little late. Well, okay, okay, all right. So it's time
- 5:56for the good, the bad, the ugly. The parliest event has been
- 5:59announced. Plus it's a kit. They say, what's going to be inside
- 6:02kit? Or is it just a kit? Wow? The the prerelease things
- 6:08that you buy as a player. They have released no prising outside of that.
- 6:14It's been a and it's supposed to be like forty two dollars, which
- 6:18sounds high. Maybe it was forty two Canadian. I don't know what the
- 6:21US price is, but it is three wins of exchange decks and a premium
- 6:28train track chain tracker. We don't know if that means the acrylic ones or
- 6:36just a really nice card. Well, this is not a nic because I've
- 6:43been on a business trip, so I think I missed this detail. This
- 6:45is not a like store buys stuff for invent thing. Yes, the store.
- 6:50Each store can buy up to twenty four of these three deck boxes.
- 6:56So you know, it's a lot like the pre release, a little bit
- 6:58like the pre release kits you get at Magic or you get a Magic style
- 7:02thing. It's or yeah, you Giomon does it. It's a little pre
- 7:09package box that has everything you need to build and play, and it's meant
- 7:14to be played as Sealed Alliance. Oh I see that could be Decks Sealed
- 7:17Alliance. Oh yeah, you say in the store. Costs is two no
- 7:24no, no, no no player. Okay, so if it's gonna be
- 7:28if it is, I think forty two is the Canadian costs from JM.
- 7:30Though forty two kind of makes sense. I mean that's only yeah, I
- 7:35mean you got forty bucks backs if it's actually acrylic train tracker, although it
- 7:43kind of sucks that they're making you buy one um. But maybe maybe forty
- 7:48two is those you know, those maple dollars and ours there going to be
- 7:53thirty five bucks and it's a deal. I don't really know, because you're
- 7:56limited. You're very limited, so you think they're reason you want them.
- 8:01Do we have a place that we'll be doing this when is okay? Number
- 8:07one money by us. We'll be getting them. I will be getting them
- 8:11through the Jainsville store, and I sent an email to games Universe and they
- 8:16have not replied, So we'll bug somebody on Tuesday who won't know anything and
- 8:22does not have the ability to make that decision. Yes, yeah, I
- 8:28also posted it in our ac live chat for anyone kind of following along.
- 8:31But I thought what was most interesting to me was the release date for this
- 8:37KeyForge Wins of Exchange pre release pack July twenty eighth of twenty twenty three,
- 8:41so that would be very, very very soon for the stories to be able
- 8:46to get it. You know, KeyForge players are sure to enthusiastically welcome KeyForge
- 8:52back with the release of KeyForge Wins of Exchange. The return of KeyForge is
- 8:56to be marked by a Wins of Exchange pre release event for brick and mortar
- 8:58hobby shops, so thank you for supporting those friendly local game stores. The
- 9:03event will take place the week prior to the release of the main Wins of
- 9:07Exchange sets, so that earmarks it for the beginning of August. All the
- 9:13Winds of Exchange pre release pack will be central feature of the event. Each
- 9:16pack contains three sealed Wins of Exchange decks and a high quality Chaine tracker to
- 9:22be used at the Sealed Alliance pre release cardboard. Yeah, retail retailers are
- 9:28free to sell access pre release packs after the event, so I'm I'm kind
- 9:35of surprised looking at it that they well, but they don't have Game Jenic
- 9:39anymore, so I'm almost certain they're just going to be fancy cardboard chain trackers
- 9:43because they're printing them in house. Well, they might be. They might
- 9:46have extra I mean, they got extras of a lot, so it might
- 9:50just be like throw maybe, but that's because it'd be nice if they had
- 9:58like the game deck boxes, and that pre release package that came in would
- 10:03have been a Game Genetic style deck box, well the single deck not maybe
- 10:09just like they're the plastic ones, not the deck books. Yeah. Maybe
- 10:13maybe some sleeves get thrown in there for you to sleeve up and play.
- 10:16Yeah, I mean yeah, I mean that might be you put too much
- 10:22stuff into it and it makes it way too expensive, and then all of
- 10:24a sudden you're paying fifty bucks for three decks and that's no good correct,
- 10:28And with the retail at being thirteen already times you're three that that is an
- 10:33increased cost. Yeah. So a pre release is generally cheap, relatively cheap,
- 10:39and the prizes are not amazing because it's meant to be a playing event,
- 10:46not a murder each other event. Yeah, bring out new people,
- 10:50right, but we'll want to murder each other. I'm going for blood.
- 10:56I don't know. We'll see you guys. Tell me where and when to
- 11:00be, and I'll see if my work schedule can accommodate. Well, when
- 11:05we find something out, you'll be the last and out. I expect.
- 11:09I expect nothing less, all right. I mentioned this to my my lgs.
- 11:16Now I'm gonna have to get on this seriously to So July twenty eighth
- 11:20is the that's the friday we got to run this, So okay, all
- 11:22right, I did. I did see some other people posting that today that
- 11:28stores we're getting information from their rep that this is actually like becoming available yesterday.
- 11:33When we first saw this, if you went to the game or the
- 11:37Pasthma Day website thing, you couldn't find it. Retailers couldn't find key for
- 11:43it. But I think it was supposed to go live today. Okay,
- 11:48cool and drabs. From what I've heard, it is not restricted to just
- 11:52that Friday, but there are basically multiple weeks, multiple days in the week.
- 12:00I think we're going to be accessible. So again, none of that
- 12:03has been confirmed, but something to be able to look at. And I
- 12:07still remember the days where we would go out for other games, whether that
- 12:09was Star Wars, Minis or Mac Warrior, and you play from store to
- 12:13store on different days. So that would be amazing if we could do well
- 12:16release at multiple stores in the area. Basically fifty bucks a night. Great,
- 12:26Oh, I mean, if if we can get things going right,
- 12:30like multiple days. All right, So the new deck ownership article came out
- 12:41leaving some people, I guess less than less than enthused. Is that fair
- 12:46to say? So transferring decks is now available on the Master Vault. It'll
- 12:52cost you number to transfer your deck that was that was known before. This
- 12:58is kind of the updated verse, but it's available now. Now you can
- 13:01do it. You couldn't do it before. Well, that is true.
- 13:05And I will say that we did have a successful counter for someone who had
- 13:09a deck issue, so I thought that was very smooth. I did not
- 13:11see this as a negative at all. I thought this was a big positive.
- 13:15Look. Uh, well, it depends on how you see it,
- 13:18though, right, because we haven't gotten into the into the bad yet quite
- 13:24quite yet. Um, maybe we should have saved this one for later and
- 13:28we'll come back to this one maybe a little bit. Hey, I got
- 13:31to choose where the order is today, so I placed it into good and
- 13:33that is why it is. It's not bad. But um, there's a
- 13:39little thing that exists now that's twin decks. Well, you're you're you're like
- 13:46way ahead, man, I know I'm way ahead, but it is relevant?
- 13:50Not really, No, how is it not. There's a couple of
- 13:54people in our discord that have said that the deck that they got has already
- 13:58been scanned and not by that you totally missed landing the joke. So we're
- 14:05throwing this whole show. No, now I want to hear the joke.
- 14:07The joke was they've improved Evil Twins identical Twins. Is that an improvement though?
- 14:16No, of course not. Oh that must be keet. So,
- 14:22since since we are talking about this and jumping all around on our beautiful show
- 14:26notes, thank thank you, man, I'm here to close chaos, that's
- 14:31the Identical Twins. So yes, we did have a couple different occurrences where
- 14:37people scanned in a wodeck it was the first time. Then it was scanned
- 14:39and it was saying that it was already taken. Now that's a problem when
- 14:43it's coming from a sealed package. Um, it is not open for someone
- 14:46else to be able to scan. It wasn't scanned later on, And it
- 14:50did happen on the old Sanctimonious discord and on our discords we had at least
- 14:54two different occurrences. I do think that there is some feedback that's been provided
- 15:01that theory of what could have happened, and that is that if you get
- 15:07into a printer again, we don't actually know what happened. All we know
- 15:11is that these decks are identical. The name matches, the deck matches,
- 15:15the cards printed for the even name. Yes they are. And so this
- 15:24is a problem when we talk about it being a unique game, and so
- 15:28Gig gets a little bit of a black eye for that, and that's something
- 15:33to kind of look at. But the hypothesis right now is that basically they
- 15:37printed as they were going through the printer batch, there was an error.
- 15:41They chose to go back and reprint from that same set of Now that's that's
- 15:46my hypothesis. We have no idea what happened, But but it would make
- 15:50it would make logical sense. Yes, we know nothing, but it is
- 15:54a hypothesis. We know all the things. They just don't want us to
- 15:58think. We know, we know, we figured out. I mean like,
- 16:07for all we know is like the night shift crew press punt print on
- 16:11a batch, packed it up. The morning shifts printed the same damn batch,
- 16:17packed it up. We don't know anything. Like what I just said
- 16:21is literally worst case, but that could beat a scenario. I mean night
- 16:27they just poked Jeremy and wake him back up, would be like you got
- 16:30to keep you can't sleep, You've been working eighteen hours. Have you seen
- 16:36Jeremy's car in our discord? I mean it is not Jeremy printing shit,
- 16:42how do you know? Uh, Jeremy, he's like one fifth of g
- 16:49he's too busy to work, and one quarter probably has like eight people and
- 16:56one eighth of strange stars regards there was printing. So if you have issues,
- 17:03I will say that my my game found order did have an issue in
- 17:10one of my name decks and my mats. I reached out, Jeremy did
- 17:15respond, had good correspondence with me right away, and I think he's been
- 17:19very responsive at trying to touch why he's not printing. He's answering all those
- 17:25correct. But with that, if he's got a full time job, yeah,
- 17:30he's got a full time job. But if you have an issue,
- 17:33please reach out, not through discord, but actually use the the proper channel,
- 17:41which I know it is through. It is through key for proper channel
- 17:48is the proper channel called woe forge. His name is at Darby twice No,
- 17:55no, but again this is where if you choose not to go ahead
- 17:59and respond in the right way there on keyforging dot com. On the more
- 18:04side, I will lead you through it. On the bottom it says contact
- 18:08us. When you go ahead and choose the contact, I should just say
- 18:12contact Jeremy. But you will put in your first name, last name,
- 18:18your email, what your message is about, and please then actually write your
- 18:22message. But he was very responsive to that and I appreciate it. Yes,
- 18:26now I have to decide you should not be pinging somebody in a public
- 18:30server for an official response to a customer service. Yes, yes, please
- 18:38please use the proper channels. We're just having fun here. This is just
- 18:42five people b us and really yeah, this says but it does for those
- 18:49of you, um obviously for the digital rights claims and claims on deck.
- 18:55Some decks did get unfortunately they released it and somebody went skans scan scan scan
- 19:00on decks of KeyForge. That you now have the process you to go through
- 19:07for reclaiming ownership of your deck. Yeah, but I've only heard of one
- 19:14person who actually reached out through the new process and they had it immediately returned
- 19:19to them. I think again, our community is so good that I'd be
- 19:23shocked if individuals are going to continue to press this. But well, I'd
- 19:27be shocked if people continue to put their QR codes online. Well, but
- 19:32that was the process during the pandemic. I mean, there was so much
- 19:34that was shared at that point, it wasn't a problem to list your QR
- 19:38code. Now we understand that it's a different time and so don't. Yes,
- 19:44don't share your QR code. The QR code for your own player ID
- 19:48is different from when we were with FG. But again, don't be going
- 19:55ahead and showing your player ID code. Don't post it online because it is
- 19:57too easy to go ahead and scan in the deck claim ownership, or to
- 20:03go ahead and have access to your code. I mean I think there's like
- 20:07worse potential issues now right, Like we're all talking about decks and stuff,
- 20:11Like what are they gonna do when someone's actual account gets sold? Like if
- 20:15someone steals my account right now, they get I'm not even gonna list all
- 20:21the decks they get. They get a lot of money worth of decks.
- 20:25Hold on one second, m well, all the QR quotes have been changed.
- 20:32That that was one thing local car had brought up in the server,
- 20:36that your quote. I'm talking about that, Like it's like not that hard
- 20:41if someone really wants to crack someone's like code, right well, having your
- 20:48player QR code that doesn't give you access to your account, does it?
- 20:52No? No, I'm talking about your master Vault log in right now.
- 20:55Like if somebody logged in as my master Vault, somehow they change the password,
- 21:03like they actually steal my Masterball account, Like what happens then, Like
- 21:07I just don't have those decks even though I physically have them. They go
- 21:12make a bunch of copies. Well, then now you wind up making a
- 21:15new account and going through the process of verifying that you physically Okay, Well,
- 21:22I mean yeah, I mean what would happen, right? It would
- 21:26be real terrible. Yeah, like, I think there will potentially be bigger
- 21:30issue if that thing happens. So I don't hoping it doesn't happen. Are
- 21:34you sharing your passwords with a lot of people? Oh no, but I
- 21:38mean like some people have really bad passwords. Woke lowercase a lowercase C for
- 21:45all. Let's trive password on Wookie's account. Let's trip down. I mean,
- 21:53like this stuff happens in the real world. My password is real good,
- 21:57my passwords real good. Am I not supposed to write password as my
- 22:02password? No typical goodness guise, But if it's okay, if you use
- 22:07dollar signs instead of ses, then it's fine. Nobody ever guess that never
- 22:11Yeah at dollar dollar Listen, this is how we lost the algorithm in the
- 22:15first place before. Okay, so probably is probably is all right, onto
- 22:22some more good news. TCO is live with woe, all right, dude,
- 22:30kind of you You gotta look one. We are super excited about that,
- 22:34but you didn't even like talk about this article. I'll give the quick
- 22:37synopsis. We can kind of move on transfer. But deck transfer they actually
- 22:44have a process for going ahead and claiming. They're specific instructions listed They talk
- 22:49about the amber that you talked about for changing. Fine, but they give
- 22:53instructions for the person who is transferring to the user and then from the receiving
- 22:59users. So I think that was very clear. It was easy to lay
- 23:03out. They do have kind of what the steps are. So after deck
- 23:07has been asked to transfer, if you say okay, it's not mine or
- 23:11I've sold, you can actually the deck recipient may click on the link in
- 23:18the email to navigate to the deck transfer page. Here, the deck recipient
- 23:22will see a list of pending deck transfers, both ingoing and outgoing. For
- 23:26each deck transfer, the recipient is brought out with two options to accept transfer
- 23:30or denied transfer. So again they're leaving it really simple. The picture right
- 23:33next to it was also clear, and then it says after accepting a transfer,
- 23:37the recipient may now navigate to see the deck in their my decks list
- 23:42a few minutes or a browser refresh. That's awesome. They talk about what
- 23:47happens if you have a denied transfer. Transfer is denied by the recipient,
- 23:49then no transfer will take place in the transferring user will be credited back one
- 23:53amber. But afterwards they talk about the deck ownership dispute, which we did
- 23:57have some issues with when it was previously announced, and I think that they
- 24:03did a very nice job at trying to lay out what's happening. They are
- 24:07using a third party company here, so there's actual Yeah, that's why I
- 24:14think they're just using a third party company to collect the information, because it
- 24:17says a GG person does the actual review. Yeah, and that is the
- 24:22submission portion of our deck. Digital deck claims are handled by our technology partner,
- 24:26play Style Alejandro. What was it so that that was listed as Tier
- 24:33two digital deck claim review? But again, really the new part of this
- 24:38article is instead of the only being like, hey, that's my deck and
- 24:44I'm going, oh, yeah it is, they added the digital portion where
- 24:51take a bunch of pictures of your deck next to a unique QR code to
- 24:55prove that you actually have the deck, six different pictures and the SENSI aman
- 25:02yeah, and then with specific cards from the set. It's it's something,
- 25:06it's something. And then but it also says like then gig does it and
- 25:10whatever they say is the law it is it is uh finding or whatever their
- 25:19terminology is there, but it's the decision of the review is final. Um.
- 25:25I think I hear that. I think with the six pitchers um the
- 25:30front of the deck list, back of the deck list card, back of
- 25:33any other card in the deck, front of the first card listed for the
- 25:37first house, first card for the second house, and first card for the
- 25:40third house, like a but they have it laid out in a nice format
- 25:45that it's clear and easy to read. The only thing that I would lean
- 25:48against for anyone if you have to go through the dispute. We know it's
- 25:51the ten amber shards, a little bit of a bummer there, which is
- 25:53nonrefundable. But it talked about check each photo, ensure that it's good quality
- 26:00and clearly shows the card details. In particular, be sure that the focus
- 26:03is correct and they spend time there because claims with low quality or unreadable photos
- 26:07will result in an automatic denial. And that was probably like I get it.
- 26:14If it's not readable, fine, then it becomes a problem. There's
- 26:22six photos, so I can't imagine that one individual photos all of a sudden
- 26:26going to throw it out. But that's what they're basically looking at. So
- 26:29make sure that you have clean photos, take them, put them in their
- 26:32space. And I think that this process will help so that you don't have
- 26:37to send in a physical deck because that's Tier three is twenty five dollars plush
- 26:41shipping to send in your physical deck, which they had talked about earlier.
- 26:45I think I'm gonna use all my shards to claim pink fraud, but not
- 26:48actually claim it. It's just all gonna be fuzzy pictures of meat. Well,
- 26:52then I think it's just going to be you losing Amber shards. So
- 26:56great job on that one. I'm cool at that. That's fine. They're
- 26:59worth us to me. So the ac uh uh sim Suit edition calendar that
- 27:07pure pictures from that that in the soft light filter. Yep, ye,
- 27:12it'll just be it'll just I'll be pictures of me. So Jeremy just has
- 27:17to look at me for like the next board fastest denied ever. Maybe maybe
- 27:26we don't know or will it? Can we now go through that. TCO
- 27:30as live with woe. Yes, and this is awesome news. So thank
- 27:34you, thank you, thank you TCO. I don't know if you guys
- 27:37have seen, but TCO has been rocking. There are games left and right.
- 27:42Even at this moment we dropped a little bit. There's only twenty three
- 27:47games right now that are happening. That is, that's amazing. But I
- 27:52don't know what, what do you guys think? TCO live with woe very
- 27:56exciting. Sheep's still playing. Sheep's still playing a lot of fraud. We
- 28:08went live, all right. If Grump is over here, can say that's
- 28:12that's okay. You know, it's got to be phenomenal. Yeah, game
- 28:18to low it's what. I lost two games to the same to the same
- 28:26deck, which is one game. Oh no, I know. And then
- 28:30I went and played fraud against another deck that somebody thought was one of their
- 28:34best picks, and I had no problem there. And then those two decks
- 28:38played, and that deck that couldn't beat fraud trounced the deck that did beat
- 28:42fraud. So the uh, the paper rock Scissors is still in effect.
- 28:48M so there's still a chance Dan will brick it and lose. It is
- 28:56guaranteed gut so so I have noticing. I'm just scrolling. So of all
- 29:03these games, there's a bunch of casual, bunch of competitive, bunch of
- 29:10sealed, bunch of ar con, bunch of open games, bunch of locked.
- 29:15I don't see any Alliance games. There's one sitting there for five minutes
- 29:21and nobody's joined them. Oh, I'm just gonna be bouncing over here.
- 29:25Hold on one second, go join them with Froude. I'm supposed to be
- 29:30paying attention to Yes, you guys, you don't pay attention when you're here.
- 29:36We all know better. But you are able to play your Wodex on
- 29:41TCO now, So that that's exciting. That's I mean, obviously it's got
- 29:45a lot of buzz. Still a lot of people I know don't like um
- 29:49tabletop simulator. It's fine, it's not on it's not on two CEO.
- 29:55So any you guys sheep, any memorable moments stand out for your first playthroughs
- 30:03with Woe on TCO. Buggy, Buggy, I mean, that's a lot
- 30:11of bugs. Yesterday was was we So we played Sunday night several Yeah,
- 30:19we played Sunday night. Now we played Wednesday night with local Car and a
- 30:25few of us were playing it and there were quite a few bugs. But
- 30:27they pushed a lot of patches this morning and it fixed. But there is
- 30:33still some bugginess with cars that become token eyes and on token eyes like not
- 30:37losing effects. And you can, at least as of yesterday, you could
- 30:41tell what your opponents tokens were. That'll be changed. I mean, they'll
- 30:47fix it. So go go give them. Go give a dollar to your
- 30:52tco Patreon so they can or five and then you can have a colored name.
- 30:56Yeah, or five, or you can take that one dollar and also
- 31:02give us a dollar. Z What do they get for their dollar? Well,
- 31:07right now they get access to the Z score sheet, so you can
- 31:11get your Z scores in um. There's no U d ok. You can
- 31:18look up your deck in d okay, but you obviously can't see a stass
- 31:21yet. Um. So you'll be able to see a Z score for your
- 31:23thing. You do have to manually enter it, but we have things in
- 31:26the work. Um at some point that saying dollar will give you access to
- 31:30a site where you can have your Z scores shown. Um. So yeah,
- 31:36we've been working on that. I have a meeting with our our dev
- 31:40person on Saturday to see what the Zeta testing will look like for that.
- 31:48That's right? Is that like beta testing? But but yeah, that's exactly
- 31:53what that is. I like it. I like it. Um So yeah,
- 31:59so we'll be starting to zay to test our z score site system and
- 32:02then once it's ready, it will be pushed to at first our patreons um.
- 32:08So if you want to be in that first wave or the digitized version
- 32:13of the z score that you do not have to manually enter um, go
- 32:15ahead and sign up for that dollar. You'll go ahead and get the Google
- 32:19sheet now that you can get those and then by that first vault window to
- 32:25have a more polished but well not polished a site version of them. It
- 32:31is phenomenal. It's well well worth it. Even just the standard sheet that
- 32:37you're using is really helpful. Right now a lot of people are trying to
- 32:39be able to figure out what decks they're liking. I am seeing quite arrange,
- 32:44and I know early with the release of a set you will see a
- 32:46smattering of decks, but casual decks are being played, just healed decks are
- 32:52being opened and tried outs, and it's really great to see everyone enjoying KeyForge
- 32:57in that experience of just cracking a deck and in it. YEP, I
- 33:06was gonna ask, did you have any specific memorable plays so far with will
- 33:10Yeah. I ran through some of the decks that I had been playing that
- 33:15I knew were well and they did pretty pretty decently. I was more impressible
- 33:20for the deck that I ran into by one of the ac regulars. Um
- 33:25U it had I think um it had three of the cards in equedon that
- 33:35flips the creature over to you, and a whole bunch of capture. Had
- 33:38three trading utunities and then three exchange programs. I think, um that was
- 33:44an aggressive amount of amber swing and UM it trounts the deck. But I've
- 33:49been doing quite well and well with UM so it's fun to see that.
- 33:52And then I tried out a bunch of random berserker decks I just scrubbed off
- 33:55of off of Master Wall. Trade one require you to have a creature for
- 34:02them to make the trade. It doesn't no, No, it will flip
- 34:07either way, so they can just give you a creature and not take something
- 34:13if you don't have if like they don't have one. No, if you
- 34:15don't have a creature when they go to do the swap creatures, well then
- 34:20you definitely can't use the swap creature thing exchange program. Right, that's sky
- 34:23we're talking about. Yeah, um, I don't think both of them have
- 34:31to have it, but you really wouldn't want to do that if you don't
- 34:36have a creature, choose a friendly frank creature and an enemy flank creature.
- 34:40If you do so, they both have I'm just I was just wondering because
- 34:45so I've played at least a dozen games a fraud versus whatever woe shows up
- 34:52in competitive TCL, and I have almost completely gone to out playing creatures.
- 35:01I'll just get discarded because there's so much double brick nasty stuff getting played right
- 35:07now, and just change program would do that too, yet punishes you for
- 35:15having creatures that woe has a lot of great you don't do it. Yeah,
- 35:20yeah, So what you're telling me is I should go back to all
- 35:23my CODA decks because Coda don't care about creatures. Wow, Coda doesn't care
- 35:30about creatures, but always having to discard them and choke through them multiple times
- 35:35can be really bad too. Well, I also have a lot of decks
- 35:38that don't got them, so moving forward day, I was really trying to
- 35:46find the deck. So I've been playing a lot of woe. Um,
- 35:51that's the benefits of being able to have off. I'm actually a little bit
- 35:53of head so do a little bit of work around the house outside, and
- 35:58I've been enjoying Woe I've had some great decks. I'm curious to see.
- 36:05The only issue that I actually had was a couple of days ago I had
- 36:08my Pyro which just like it showed the outline of the card but didn't actually
- 36:13light up. And today I didn't have any issue yesterday and have any issue
- 36:15with it. But I played a random game where I just opened one of
- 36:21my seal woe and I ended up facing jt Rossoll so you know known from
- 36:28ABR from Bottom of the Beaker if you haven't heard of that podcast. But
- 36:31it's just one of those games where it was a sealed deck for me.
- 36:36I actually played it completely blind, not even looking. I don't know I
- 36:39would have looked. I wish I would have looked at a time. But
- 36:42I think that there's just a lot of fun. No, I think there's
- 36:44a lot of fun for being able to explore. But this deck that JC
- 36:49Russell was throwing out was really unique. It had nine different artifacts, so
- 36:55double sand Hopper and then it had double heavy subsidies and Celestial of Go.
- 37:05Yeah, and so what's okay? Yes, so what was actually happening here?
- 37:12Now? The game went on quite a while because um I had a
- 37:15bit of c in the random deck that I opened. I actually ended up
- 37:19with an anomaly of the red baron that was there. And that is the
- 37:22reason why I was so disappointed that I did not look at it ahead of
- 37:24time, because I would have flipped my red key. But um, double
- 37:29heavy heavy subsidies. What was crazy is that you could go ahead and um
- 37:36he was basically going ahead and looking he did have cleric has his tokens,
- 37:38so a little bit of steel. Um, But the main component to get
- 37:43rid of your amber was Martyr of the Vault. So Martyr of the Vaults.
- 37:50Are you guys familiar with this card? I am not beat fraud twice
- 37:58today. Yeah, and it's one of those sanctum cards that is just really
- 38:02interesting. Tellos what its walk bot? All right? Walk Bot is going
- 38:08ahead and rolling out. No, I was waiting for him to say destroyed.
- 38:17If your potent has seven or more amer, they lose all but five.
- 38:21Correct. So what ends up happening is that, um, you know,
- 38:28double heavy subsidies. Great, you can reap. You get up real
- 38:30high, especially meaning eighteen in order to forge for your key. Um it
- 38:35does. It does go ahead and require the bigger boards. So whoe and
- 38:39mm are going to definitely do much better with the heavy subsidies versus your coda,
- 38:45which you know, if you're not playing any four that's a problem.
- 38:49Um. But it had multiple ways to recur Martyr of the Vaults and multiple
- 38:52ways to be able to kill Martyr of the Vaults UM, especially upon playing,
- 38:55which was really neat to see. UM. So it was just it
- 39:00was something I hadn't seen before, and to see that interaction where you know,
- 39:05double heavy subsidies you're reaping for three UM. I ended up taking the
- 39:08game and it just ended up being because my token, which was I want
- 39:14to say it was Raider in that random deck, I just ended up being
- 39:16able to spam and the sea couldn't keep up. Um. But it was
- 39:21still a really neat deck. I could see it as more an adaptive deck.
- 39:28UM. So if the ABR when they're talking about I know, I
- 39:32know it's not therefore did her. But for an online community, it is
- 39:39still very very active and I think they need to move on oh to see
- 39:44there you go, But I don't know. I like to see different ways
- 39:47to be able to play. It's a deck that maybe wouldn't have seen as
- 39:52much light. But picture nine different artifacts there and that it was crazy because
- 39:57you could go ahead and basically use your celestial gorm in order to return all
- 40:07of your artifacts. So if you were above sex specifically higher preferably. But
- 40:14let's say that you're at ten twelve and your opponent is they'd either just forged,
- 40:20which is what happened to me. I forged it eighteen, and then
- 40:22he went ahead and sent it all back, and you have a real issue
- 40:28because now the key costs is at six and it's back in your hand.
- 40:31So it was it was just a really neat deck to be able to see
- 40:35how you can go ahead and play with heavy subsidies as being something kind of
- 40:40to raise the key costs and then with the right card storm send it back.
- 40:45Sand Hopper is able to go ahead and return that Martyr. The vaults
- 40:52just light everlasting to be able to return it. So there's multiple ways to
- 40:55return key cards, specifically if they're creature. So I had time you reminded
- 41:04me about something um On a previous turn, I had a bump Sy in
- 41:08play and I was playing a deck that had three Sandhoppers. I went into
- 41:15the turn and I returned Bumpsy played Bumps played an Equedon car creature returned that
- 41:22played bump Cy like I just kept doing it. I literally played Bumpsy three
- 41:27times in a row on an Equadon turn with three Sandhoppers and that was really
- 41:31really fun. Yeah, that was I had never we didn't talk about like
- 41:37that utility of sandhopper, like the the idea of having play effects or potentially
- 41:43pipped cards and then just spamming that card over and over it again in Equadon
- 41:47house like that's like transporter platform level. Good. Hum, it was really
- 41:52cool. There's something there with a sandhopper, especially in multiples. Um it
- 41:59was. It was awesome, It was fun, and that was just randomly
- 42:01found. I think there will be some decks generated that have some really well
- 42:06pipped play effect creatures like that same bumps. He could have had like an
- 42:09amber pip on it, right, Like you could start to create some really
- 42:13really cool swings with cards like that. Um So, I think we're gonna
- 42:17see some decks with that for sure. The kind of cool deck I think
- 42:21I saw it today was Mike Funai was playing it and it had transporter platform
- 42:30foreign who's the guy who says play take upgrade back from your deskcard and every
- 42:36time you play and um upgrade on him, he can reddium. Yeah.
- 42:42And his deck had four echo reflectors yeah, which happened. It's a vamber
- 42:47on them right Yeah, whoa, that's cool. Yeah that like the rule
- 42:57of theory, rule of six plus. So oh it was. It was
- 43:00pretty cool to see. I will say two quick common cards from Mars Ironics
- 43:07Rebel, which has two power Martian Ironics deploy ready each of Ironic Rebels Mars
- 43:13neighbors, and the Systhanics Harvester three powers Santa Harser cannot be used while it
- 43:20has a non Mars neighbor after reap gain one like that was an easy turn
- 43:24one play that it got, especially when you had multiple Ironics rebels. Um,
- 43:32that's a really really really fast amber generation there. Rebel is is stupid
- 43:37good. I've seen a deck that had Rebel with Grunt and Felix the Disintegrator
- 43:44from my hand, I crushed the amber in a game once. I was
- 43:49like, this is stupid. Here we go. I have all these grunts.
- 43:52I'm gonna play my disintegrator, play Rebel ready a grunt and disintegrator.
- 43:57Bam, you lose eight and I'm going to reap with these other people's um
- 44:04and then I think I could boomed to archive it so I could do it
- 44:07again later. Nice. Yeah, I was playing against one of those today
- 44:10too, so I love kaboom. One of my favorite decks has double kaboom
- 44:16and my Mar's Token of Rebel. But I will say kaboom really hurts when
- 44:22you face another good Mars deck because you've been dependent on it. I mean,
- 44:25there are many games I can just I stopped calling other houses. I
- 44:30can't. I'm sitting in Mars going you better take care of me. And
- 44:35if you do, okay, there's then the kaboom to blow up the board.
- 44:38Or if you don't, I will go ahead and put it all in
- 44:42the archives once it gets damaged and I can replay it again if there's high
- 44:45play value. UM. But Mars against Mars, it is real, real,
- 44:50real, sad. All right, we are ready to go into the
- 45:00into the bad. Oh no, she's still not have the decks. Oh
- 45:08getting decks. They're going to send them an apology letter and say sorry,
- 45:13we were in out. You don't get it. She put your piss off.
- 45:17Wait, I was doing this alphabetically or by region or yeah, you're
- 45:23gonna have to get a little more specific. Yeah. I uh, well,
- 45:29at least we're having fun. That does remind me. Did you get
- 45:32an email yet? I get an email? Are you? I'm just asking?
- 45:37I don't know. I am here to say. Today's the twenty second
- 45:45hire um graph has just been eliminated from the Winns play mask. I'm guessing
- 45:51the day when I will get my email. It's gonna be tomorrow. Man,
- 45:53I'm telling you, wait, was it just the email or was it
- 45:58when you're receiving your decks of the just when I get the email? Oh,
- 46:01I thought it was the decks. I'm glad I didn't jump on that
- 46:05train. I know that a whole bunch of people have been complaining about,
- 46:10especially international individuals where they are. They've been complaining NonStop. Um but you
- 46:17know, like but they're they're they're complaining because they made it really clear that
- 46:22those weren't coming particularly soon. But people are all silly. They're just silly.
- 46:28In our nationals have nothing to complain though, surely they're excited about the
- 46:30vaults in their nationals coming up right. Oh yeah, we're hopping right into
- 46:38the ugly Huh. We're not even we're not even talking to Sheep. We're
- 46:42just like, yeah, Sheep doesn't have a decks. Boo. Who that's
- 46:45just I mean, it feels it feels bad here for some of the Americans
- 46:50who still don't have their decks because they're closer. But yeah, coming into
- 46:57context, you could be literally in any other entry. Correct, you can
- 47:00go feel bad there if you really want to feel bad. So the shafty
- 47:04thing about not having decks right now is major testing is going on, and
- 47:07we are two weekends from flying to Philly. Yes, I mean if Philly,
- 47:21because I believe I could open a good death. No, you don't.
- 47:28You don't really believe that he's a gambler. Of course he believes that
- 47:32right. Well, he's saying that because he doesn't have his decks, so
- 47:35he doesn't want all your little woe decks running around. So out of everyone
- 47:37on this show, I think Sheep opens the most sealed product. No,
- 47:44I don't know, he walk Mike taught me. Now, oh no,
- 47:46According to my daughter earlier this week, she went downstairs as I put all
- 47:52of my six boxes of woe on the shelf, and she goes, Daddy,
- 47:58you have a lot of key for it because it wasn't just woe,
- 48:02it was woe and world's collide in MM and AOA and French Away. I
- 48:10think I have everything. I do not have DT and I do not have
- 48:15CODA anymore. I got all that stuff. Yeah, so you have more.
- 48:21You're on the show either way. The reason Sheep is saying what he's
- 48:25saying is due to the fact if he does not want woe decks running around
- 48:30at the Philly Vault tour, what he does not want them. I would
- 48:37be happy to fight all of your um woe decks so far at Philly.
- 48:47Okay, well then, but I could have a good one. But I
- 48:53don't get to have a good one because don't not going to get as soon
- 49:00as you take off on your plane. Yeah, I that's actually the date
- 49:05I picked, put my own name on, and I picked a day and
- 49:08that is all I picked. Money, Well, I picked one day before
- 49:12that, so that arrives the first day that he's at the Vault. Hey,
- 49:17I'm going for tomorrow because it's my daughter's birthday, so that that's lucky
- 49:21day right there. I know you feel bad cheap and yes, it's been
- 49:30hums at this point, Like, how do you find it anything but humorous
- 49:32at this point, because it's just it's gonna it's gonna go as long as
- 49:37I mean, at least it's not X ray. So I think what I
- 49:40think what's frustrating for the international individuals. I think what's frustrating for the state
- 49:45side people who haven't gotten their decks yet, is that there doesn't seem to
- 49:50be a rhyme or reason as to why, like cheap, you and I
- 49:52just aren't that far apart, and we have all other individuals who have come
- 49:59to our locals then you you did, and I got each of my shipments
- 50:05already, and so like that's what's weird is we thought originally they were just
- 50:09bat shipping based on what pledge level you were at, but that clearly wouldn't
- 50:15happen if I have a higher pledge level or this equivalent pledge level. It's
- 50:20it's just weird. I don't know what else to say, because I thought,
- 50:25Okay, so we see for our international friends that they're basically putting it
- 50:29all into container shipments and then they're going to be shipping them around the world,
- 50:34which that's going to be very very it's to save the money. I
- 50:37get that but it is a very very slow process, and their frustration,
- 50:42which has been voiced is that there are announcements of the release events happening for
- 50:47their countries, but their game fund pledge won't be there yet. And that's
- 50:52right. It's three decks sealed, so you don't need anything three game from
- 50:57pledge, correct, But if you did order from game found as a pledge,
- 51:00as a supporter, I can see where that frustration is is, Hey,
- 51:05I'm not getting my decks when others around the world have gotten their decks,
- 51:10or I'm not getting my deck internationally, and then doors in my area
- 51:15which should have gotten it after me are going to be able to get it
- 51:19first. But I think what's being correct and that's what I think we have
- 51:24to be able to. It's it's a bummer, there is no question about
- 51:28it. But I think what people are missing is that they're getting pre released
- 51:31decks and it's a lot easier to ship that out is a container or a
- 51:37to the individual store. It could also be sent to their distribution area and
- 51:43then panned out versus an actual shipping space where it has to be broke apart
- 51:47and then shipped once it is overseas, Listen, they knew when they got
- 51:54into it, Gig did not. Here's a point where I will defend Gig.
- 51:58You can mark it on your calendar, right they they were told you
- 52:02will not be that they were going to do us shipping first than everyone else.
- 52:09I hear that you worked except for like sheep has a legitimate grape.
- 52:15I have a feeling that people in Canada are going to get their stuff before
- 52:19Sheep does so. But there's other Americans too, and other peoples stateside who
- 52:23have not gotten there. So it's not sure there's a there's a's just sheep
- 52:27are a handful in our server that every day. Yeah, I mean,
- 52:31but at the same point, like if if the international crew, like they're
- 52:36a great crew, however, you were told it advanced that it would be
- 52:42point A then point B. So I mean again, that's where I'm kind
- 52:46of a sheep here, Like why do they get to grape like they haven't
- 52:50gotten their stuff yet. I mean, you were told this is the way
- 52:52that they wasn't going to go down. I hear you, no, no,
- 52:57just it wasn't like hidden in the shadows like you know, CTP wasn't
- 53:00over there, like ha, gotcha? And like, that's not the way
- 53:04it went down. They were told like the order of events to which it
- 53:07would proceed, and here's how it's going to happen, and that is what's
- 53:12happening. I agree one hundred percent with you, hookie. I'm just saying
- 53:15some empathy goes ahead and helps, because the end result is some of these
- 53:21people are content creators. Some of these people just love the game. And
- 53:23probably the hardest part for me waiting throughout the whole pandemic was actually once we
- 53:30got to January and we thought that we were finally clear that we are going
- 53:35to have woe. We'd gone to KFC, we had seen all the cards,
- 53:38it was there, and I honestly thought that it was coming out in
- 53:42January, and then that big brand came down saying we are you're not going
- 53:47to get it until May June, and that five to six months wait period
- 53:54really made it extremely challenging because you thought you were at the end and then
- 54:00they're like, oh, no, no, no, just just wait a
- 54:01little bit longer. And honestly, it wasn't that big of a deal.
- 54:04It's half a year. We'd waited multiple years to get to this point,
- 54:07and I'm thankful that gig bought the game so that we can continue to play,
- 54:13but because we felt that, I felt that it was already at the
- 54:16end and it was much closer than it In reality, the end result was
- 54:22well and that it was absolutely horrible. So I feel for anyone international who's
- 54:28like, hey, I'm still going through that, I'm still waiting. I
- 54:30want to play. I paid for this, I paid a lot of money.
- 54:34I paid some money, and frankly, I'm going to get a pre
- 54:37release before my own Game Found campaign is going to get to me. I
- 54:40feel for him, so I'm gonna give them empathy. Oh saying like you
- 54:45should have reasonable expectations and reasonable expectations on kick Stars and game Founds is stores
- 54:52often get the stuff before the people, and it makes everybody very mad,
- 54:57Like that's that's just part of it. And it's because I think it oft
- 55:01has is they don't actually realize how much freaking work it is to fulfill a
- 55:05Game Found where every order is unique. That makes it a pain in the
- 55:12butt to fulfill. It's not like it's it's not like stores where they're like,
- 55:15um, i'll take six, twelve or eighteen boxes. Okay, Well
- 55:22there's not a lot of guesswork in that it's just boxes where every one of
- 55:27these game found is a unique package shipment, which, as we have learned,
- 55:31Day are not that good at doing that either. Um, we have
- 55:43seen many more shipping error emails lately, not lately. That was last week
- 55:55that you displays that that's a years ago last week. I'm saying this week,
- 56:05how about this week? We have not seen a lot of we've all,
- 56:08we've all been anything this week at all. People get decks, learned
- 56:16about identical twin Yeah, this week we got the Like, I don't think
- 56:21we can name a single week since fulfilment started that there was not some kind
- 56:23of issue. You know, I did see in the forum about the twin
- 56:29decks that supposedly one person has a whole ton of twin decks, which I
- 56:35think is further fueling that they Well I haven't seen that yet. Yeah.
- 56:40I saw that somewhere in Sanctimonious Pop while I was waiting at the airport earlier
- 56:45today. Um, see that gets closer to my like random theory is like
- 56:50someone just hit printed twice. Yeah, I think it was one of our
- 56:55buddies. I think just a guy playing was saying that he tracked down,
- 57:00Um, he was tracking down who had one of the decks he had,
- 57:04and like apparently whoever is is in some other server and they have a whole
- 57:08bunch of like conflicts this one person. Whow so somebody got a display maybe
- 57:16of all the other people's decks. That's what was my warriors, because like,
- 57:21I don't know how there can be just one error like the we we've
- 57:25seen now these things are printed, they're printed in sheets and sheets and sheets,
- 57:30but they are multiple decks yep, So like it's like impossible to only
- 57:36how. I'm actually more surprised we haven't heard more of the story of I
- 57:39got a third of three different decks like that. That's a pretty big feat
- 57:45because again, like you said, they're printed on sheets and sheets and they're
- 57:50multiple decks, right, but but who but if there's multiple decks per sheet,
- 57:57somebody's sorting them too. That should all be the machine, right,
- 58:04the machine's going to do the cuts, all the automation, Yeah, you
- 58:09would hope, I don't. I mean that seems I guess I don't know.
- 58:14Drast course can tell you what automation can do. But all that said,
- 58:19like the stuff we have seen in the past, right, like this
- 58:22is the same type of printer that they use before. I think it is
- 58:23the same um and we saw cards pop into somebody. We've seen like single
- 58:30archons, like the the last card was actually in a different deck, which
- 58:36is a problem that you would see an automation Like that's that is a thing
- 58:39that could happen like one in a whatever X number we've Yeah, my KFC
- 58:47deck, the first card was there, but that's an automation error. Yeah,
- 58:52so like I don't think that that is the an issue that we'd be
- 58:57seen in the new way of doing this either. But like printing something twice
- 59:00is just a human error. Dealing with an error. It could be a
- 59:06software error, right like like um off by one errors or or like a
- 59:10real thing in software where like hey, you're using this one function and assumes
- 59:15your race starts at one, and use this other function and assumes your race
- 59:21starts at zero, and so like you pass the number into this function,
- 59:24say start the process. So then later on you pass to this function,
- 59:28say restart the process, and it like you get two of the one thing
- 59:31or or you know, you skip one like stuff like that happens. Yeah,
- 59:36when you're looking at the table. One of the tables is duplicated.
- 59:38You're like, oh shit, like that happens, um, but that's also
- 59:44a human error. Oh sure, yeah, like like that is we blame
- 59:49it all of you though, yeah, right right, like yeah, and
- 59:58it's all about how it is dealt with on the other side. So we'll
- 1:00:02see what they do. Yep, they can just relabel the whole thing almost
- 1:00:08unique game it is. It's like, so what actually, so what all
- 1:00:14right? So imagine this has happened that that what we suspect to this in
- 1:00:17the sanctimonious thread, that somebody has like a whole display of just other people's
- 1:00:22decks, And so the question is what do you do? Do you No,
- 1:00:29you're gonna like you're gonna reach out to ghost Galaxy. And what you
- 1:00:34do is you go give us a dollar. You punch them onto these scoring
- 1:00:37systems. Whatever one sucked, you say, we're doubles, and you get
- 1:00:40more. There you go. We have had some pretty good success with Yeah.
- 1:00:49Um, So if you're if you're GG, you got two people with
- 1:00:53identical decks, do you pick a winner? Do you send them each a
- 1:00:58new deck? Do you just say, well, I guess you have duplicates,
- 1:01:00like, what do you what do you do you have? Though you
- 1:01:02you cannot allow the duplicate that's off the table, all right, you send
- 1:01:08it in or give whichever one scanned it second a new deck, Like that's
- 1:01:14what you do, all right? So if the illegal name, that's that's
- 1:01:17gonna be real tough though with like if there is a duplicate yet, say
- 1:01:22if you have a duplicate number one, but does it? Does it matter?
- 1:01:29We're gonna have duplicate decks here in a minute, We're gonna have deck
- 1:01:31copies here in a little bit. Yeah, but then you send it an
- 1:01:35email saying like that copy is different. They don't have QR codes. How
- 1:01:39do we know the deck copies don't have QR codes? It was printed in
- 1:01:44the article that we read to the audience. That would be really dumb because
- 1:01:46I thought I thought the copies were going to be allowed in tournament play.
- 1:01:52Uh oh, I don't know how that works work on card to have it
- 1:01:57scanned, you don't have to have the deck there, but you're gonna need
- 1:02:00to get a scammed m I could have swore it so I didn't have a
- 1:02:05QR code, But yeah, you do need it. I don't remember saying
- 1:02:08it didn't have it a QR code, But I mean, I don't I
- 1:02:13read the article, but I don't remember what I read yesterday, soul.
- 1:02:16Yeah, I read so many things on so many reports on a daily basis.
- 1:02:21I couldn't tell you what I read. So, UM, I just
- 1:02:24remember them saying, like you, they were gonna allow they were gonna allow
- 1:02:30you to play the you know, the as long as you were friends or
- 1:02:35whatever, like, you didn't even have to take the original deck with you
- 1:02:38out of storage. You could just bring a you could just bring a copy,
- 1:02:44all right, deck copy. So going back to Important Master Vault updates,
- 1:02:47this was from the article from May thirty first of this year, twenty
- 1:02:52twenty three. UM it had deck copies. In the near future, go
- 1:02:57SCUCI will allow deck owners to purchase customer to copies of their decks. These
- 1:03:00cops these decks will feature a special border and text to indicate that they are
- 1:03:05copies. Deck copies will be allowed in official tournaments, provided the player as
- 1:03:08ownership of the original deck. Deck copies can be important to players that have
- 1:03:13lost or damaged one or more of the cards of the original deck, which
- 1:03:16would otherwise have left the deck unplayable in tournaments. Further, some players may
- 1:03:21not wish to play with an original, perhaps valuable deck, and tournaments making
- 1:03:24a deck copy gives such players an option to play with a copy instead.
- 1:03:30Then yeah, I don't actually see it pure here or anything about the QR
- 1:03:37sorry, man, Yeah, that interesting. I wonder if that q are
- 1:03:44on it matches the board deck. I guess it has to, because if
- 1:03:47it's a different border, if it's a different border, they're gonna know what
- 1:03:51they're talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not about It's just
- 1:03:54curious to me that it is if it is the exact thing you are or
- 1:03:59like when you scan the QR, it will show that this is the copy
- 1:04:03of law. Well, the border itself will tell you it's got a special
- 1:04:08border, and actually will I know. But as far as like what is
- 1:04:11logged digitally into the event, like, yahn't ok if it doesn't if it
- 1:04:17is anything else, like if it's the exact same QR code, you wouldn't
- 1:04:23actually have a digital record whether someone's playing a copy or the real one,
- 1:04:28which would be interesting true, But I mean, in theory, the copy
- 1:04:33would be yours since you already own it unless you're that person that's renting it
- 1:04:39from me, right right, yeah, rent renting, Yeah, I gotta.
- 1:04:43I think. I think that's one of the things I want to talk
- 1:04:45about next week is the copies and all that, because I got a lot
- 1:04:47again, we got a lot of things. We know more about it,
- 1:04:53Yeah, yeah, I mean we don't really do we know more about it.
- 1:04:56I actually have been asked about that, and like, I don't like
- 1:05:00it was a no because like I just don't know. I don't know.
- 1:05:03I don't even want to wrap my head around that really at all. I
- 1:05:08don't like it. I mean I just wrapped my head around it. The
- 1:05:10only person who's friends with me right now on Master Vault is Sheep, Thanks
- 1:05:15Sheep, no problem, Digital Hugs, neither Ewok or Draftcar. I don't
- 1:05:21even know what Z is on Master Vault. I thought it was just I
- 1:05:26didn't change my name a bunch of time because like, and now I can't
- 1:05:30log in. No one could find me, which sucks. Oh yeah,
- 1:05:34I'm probably still not friends with you because I couldn't find you. Yeah.
- 1:05:38I'm now like big Underscore Underscores because apparently there's already a big Underscores and then
- 1:05:44no one could find you couldn't like, you couldn't search for four four letter
- 1:05:49things for a while. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I do all
- 1:05:53kinds of stupid things to get my name on there. Well and well yeah,
- 1:05:57yours has two underscores right now. What's interesting is Wookie at under my
- 1:06:00uh keyforging dot com so keyforgegame dot com. It has shared decks with me.
- 1:06:10M yeah, because I have friended you, you did not have friend
- 1:06:13me back. Yeah. I don't know you, man, You're kind of
- 1:06:15questionable. I'm shady, man, I wouldn't trust me. The sketch,
- 1:06:21total sketch. I count my cards after every game, unlike some people here.
- 1:06:26Oh guys, I know we haven't talked a lot of playing Whoa a
- 1:06:31lot, but everyone has to do that. Your ship goes everywhere playing Whoa.
- 1:06:36Yeah, after every single woe game, like you know, public service
- 1:06:42announcement, do the pile stacks. Make sure you have thirty six cards,
- 1:06:46whether it's your battle line bleeding onto like your neighbor's neighbors mats, or like
- 1:06:54upgrades going on the thing, like your your cards are all over the place.
- 1:07:00I didn't even think, like because you're you're gonna be sharing play mats
- 1:07:02with your neighbor one hundred percent for sure with Wall so like your your neighbor,
- 1:07:08just like picking up a few of your cards. I didn't even think
- 1:07:10about that. Like everyone, there's never been another set where you are more
- 1:07:14likely to lose the card in real life play I garant, I will stamp
- 1:07:16sign that Dela Deliver. People are going to lose card. What is going
- 1:07:21to happen? Going to happen? What is going to happen with that?
- 1:07:25In live play? Oh my god? What I say? Like we made
- 1:07:29a random joke about like one deck that had one thing in it that occasionally
- 1:07:33flipped to the other side, Like it's hard to find a woe deck where
- 1:07:38something doesn't go to the other side. Now now you're like, hey man,
- 1:07:41I'm gonna make thirty seven tokens, so you and I are gonna get
- 1:07:44real chummy. You're using the same sleeves and they just assume it's yours.
- 1:07:46And now like four or five of your cards are just gone midplay. What's
- 1:07:50gonna happen? Like, that's gotta be a judging nightmare. It's a lot
- 1:07:55like there's tokens everywhere, there's cards going everywhere there's face down, face up,
- 1:08:00like it's stuff gets in weird places when you're playing. Well, but
- 1:08:03the good under your chair, Oh goodness, the good news is you own
- 1:08:09the I mean yeah, yeah, you got eliminated from because you didn't have
- 1:08:17all your cares. Bring three copies of your death to every event. Yeah,
- 1:08:23yeah, I got a backup copy because people keep taking my just in
- 1:08:27case, just in case. Yeah, this, uh, this definitely already
- 1:08:30happened to me. So I actually met up with a listener, So Metal
- 1:08:34Laxa and I met up at Victory Bruining and jam some Woe games and afterwards
- 1:08:43he like text me a picture. He's like, dude, I'm really sorry,
- 1:08:45Like it's one of my cards. It was like, all right,
- 1:08:47wow, well that's an excuse for us to jam some games again. So
- 1:08:51yeah, yeah, And it happened to me on on a deck sale,
- 1:08:55Like I could have swore I counted them all, but I guess I think
- 1:08:58we had played another game before we packed it up and I'd sold a deck,
- 1:09:00and then we were playing in at our local last Sunday, and then
- 1:09:04we were like looking at these cards and I was like, where are these
- 1:09:06cards from? Like what deck is that it is, like, that's the
- 1:09:10deck I sold last week. Um, so I just ship them more to
- 1:09:14it, Like like, hey guy, um, I'm gonna send you another
- 1:09:15free deck. This is literally on my fault. So here taking another free
- 1:09:19woll deck and here's the cards that you were supposed to have. Sorry,
- 1:09:23I thought i'd counted it. But like every single game, count your deck.
- 1:09:28If it's in between games, count your deck. See and well no,
- 1:09:32no, not during the game, especially if you're playing me. I
- 1:09:38learned a great lesson at the Vault Tour. This was at Cafcason that vault
- 1:09:42but vault ass is celebration and that is count your cards after otherwise people get
- 1:09:48angry. M I don't know who. Oh, we all know who.
- 1:09:55I'm on their side this time. Honestly, I throw myself over there like
- 1:10:01I'm like, oh goodness, oh goodness. All right, Well guys,
- 1:10:06it's been fun, but it's time to move into final thoughts. Well,
- 1:10:12can I at least say that, uh TG, we do want to see
- 1:10:16our international Vault tours announced. Um in the nationals. There's a whole bunch
- 1:10:21of countries that should have nationals. Yeah, well okay, so Ze,
- 1:10:25you had put was it two and a half months until it's four and a
- 1:10:30half months, four and a half months basically when people will hear this till
- 1:10:32there's a World's event. As far as we know right now, there's only
- 1:10:38gonna be sixteen people at this thing because there will be three vaults and the
- 1:10:43US National event, which will generate a total of sixteen players. So well
- 1:10:48they had both formats, right, yeah, yeah, that's total, just
- 1:10:54sixteen people at the event to play two two events. Well that that's not
- 1:11:00true because I'm gonna win three of the events. So I think trickling down
- 1:11:08the invite as much as they eat or No, we haven't seen anything,
- 1:11:12but I will argue that they had actually talked about just changing up that format
- 1:11:17structure and that it's not just straight invites. I had seen that going ahead,
- 1:11:23and it's going to be open to others. Um they had mentioned there
- 1:11:28maybe other ways. We have still have no clue what that means. So
- 1:11:31as far as right now, based on when people hear this published, there
- 1:11:36are going to be sixteen people at Worlds and we're gonna just call it like
- 1:11:41the Murica style Worlds. There's gonna be sixteen people invite it, yes,
- 1:11:45yes, yes, right, because you still got to travel. So yeah,
- 1:11:49the rest are just crashing the party. So sign up for our patress.
- 1:11:56Then you got to win multiple world slots so we can auction them off
- 1:11:59on our page. So when do you guys think they'll actually announce? Uh?
- 1:12:03International Vault Tour dates. International Vault Tour dates needed to be announced yesterday.
- 1:12:09I understand yesterday, but yesterday has already passed. I mean we have
- 1:12:13when is Sheep's Deck's gonna actually make it? Hiram Graph already lost. I
- 1:12:17will probably lose tomorrow, but hey, I'm in it. But when when
- 1:12:21are we placing that this is actually gonna happen? It is June right now,
- 1:12:28I mean, like, god, honest truth, I'm not convinced there's
- 1:12:30gonna be any I mean, the biggest problem is who's going to run it.
- 1:12:35It's not Jeremy's Cross the Atlantic. He's got one of those weird one
- 1:12:44of those cool cars that's also autemy. Actually owns the Magic bus, like
- 1:12:47the Magic school the Magic school bus over there. He's like hanging out with
- 1:12:53Miss Frizzle. Yeah nice, yeah, but the old Miss Frizzle, not
- 1:12:57the new Miss Frizzle. Oh yeah, yeah, of course I like the
- 1:13:00NUS for a lot, A big fan, but yeah, I mean I
- 1:13:02do. I don't know, like if they're not announced now, Like I
- 1:13:08mean, because a lot of the Vault attendance for you know, anywhere in
- 1:13:13Europe involves like going to another country for a good chunk of the players,
- 1:13:16right there's they all have great public transportation systems like that they do, but
- 1:13:23they still involves some level of international community, right. Um, I don't
- 1:13:30know, Like I I don't know if they announced the day, if the
- 1:13:33attendance would be what it should be because of just life, right yeah.
- 1:13:40Um. We were all talking about like how cramped the days that we got
- 1:13:44for the three events including gin Con are and we were actually talking about when
- 1:13:47they were first announced, like months of time and like all of these would
- 1:13:53have to be done in time for them to chant then plan the winners to
- 1:13:59plan travel here for November, which is not cheap. So like, I
- 1:14:06don't know what that looks like. I have no idea if it's even feasible
- 1:14:10at this point. I do hope it happens because, like we talked about
- 1:14:15earlier, like you are alluded to our international people, there's a lot of
- 1:14:18people that play Keyborgin uh like Norway, France, Italy is the biggest community
- 1:14:25outside the States, like they have a lot of Canadian people to play,
- 1:14:29Germany play like there's there's Hong Kong, there's the Philippines, like people all
- 1:14:32over the hurricane worlds here they can they can just drive down right. I
- 1:14:40think there are some I think there are some great players all around the world,
- 1:14:44and so I would love to see an actual international experience playing in real
- 1:14:49life, playing against some of these people that we've met online. It's fun,
- 1:14:55um, but it's just a lot more engaging when you're sitting across the
- 1:14:59table from someone. So that's my hoping Roalistically, October is too late,
- 1:15:02Like you cannot plan at a vent in October, have somebody win a World's
- 1:15:06Vent, and then have them have travel planned for November the next month,
- 1:15:11early November, so like anything that they do internationally has got to be September
- 1:15:16or earlier, and that puts it basically two months. I mean we're looking
- 1:15:20at nine weeks at this point. Yeah, well that at least we couldn't
- 1:15:26have already bought our plane tickets for Worlds for them to move it. Well,
- 1:15:30that's that has bad. Still have travel doltus for that ship. I'm
- 1:15:39not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you, really, but okay,
- 1:15:43final thoughts. Here we go. I'm trying to look at who's on my
- 1:15:47sheet first draft car. Yeah, so go out and sign up for ABR
- 1:15:55nine and three quarters. I did see it is they decided to make it
- 1:16:00us only too, since it's a short season, and I think, and
- 1:16:05you have to catchlow Dex and yeah, you have to have Wodex, so
- 1:16:11short season, so sign up for that and then get ready for season ten,
- 1:16:15where I'm sure there will be some woe, but there'll be other stuff
- 1:16:18too. Mister e Walk Junior, all right, I got two things.
- 1:16:24First of all, hello key for community. Please know all our international friends,
- 1:16:29I feel you. Hopefully there's some empathy that's actually being shared, and
- 1:16:34we know that woe is amazing, but we feel your pain. On a
- 1:16:40different note, my family is extremely important to me, so tomorrow is my
- 1:16:45little Emory's birthday, so I just wanted to take a moment and say happy
- 1:16:50birthday, little girl. Long after I've passed. Please know that you'll be
- 1:16:55able to find this on the interwebs. So happy birthday to my sweet Emory.
- 1:17:00Then you have a wonderful eighth year and hopefully many more to come.
- 1:17:03I love you and I'm proud of you. Dear doctor Sheep, what did
- 1:17:08you just encourage her to like listen to this after you die? Yeah,
- 1:17:11I wouldn't. I wouldn't encourage to listen to this at all. I don't
- 1:17:14encourage the people that listen now to listen to this. You know, well,
- 1:17:17you know what, what's your dead? Just put it on loop right,
- 1:17:19because there is something um as my dad continues to age and is getting
- 1:17:27quite high up there, there's going to come a point where I won't be
- 1:17:30able to easily call and have a phone call that's going to be picked up.
- 1:17:34And you take it for granted, but there's something very calming and reassuring
- 1:17:39about hearing a voice. So I know, long after I'm gone, you'll
- 1:17:44be able to hear this. And I love you all right. Sheep beat
- 1:17:47that we'd play key Forge on Wednesdays, Sundays and Tuesdays. So play key
- 1:17:59Forge US. I'm on our discord through TCO and now we can play Woe
- 1:18:06Sealed and two of those rights. So yeah, stuff and Sheep, I'm
- 1:18:13sorry and see yeah, and that all that other stuff. For all that
- 1:18:20we've talked about that it is in the bad and ug category. Woe itself
- 1:18:25as a set is really fun to play. I do feel for all of
- 1:18:30those that do not have their their back back product yet. Um and I'm
- 1:18:34excited for you to get it. When you get it. It is an
- 1:18:38amazing set to play as far as the fun level. We'll see how it
- 1:18:42does very soon in the vaults that we'll be upcoming in the United States.
- 1:18:46UM. So yeah, I hope you all had the same joy I get
- 1:18:50out of it when I play as soon as possible as far as tools.
- 1:18:59All right, everybody, With that being sad, we'll catch y'all next week.
