hello, im new to to this Blog but been a fan of EOJ and been a player some offline since i bought the game when it came out. I am a little dissapointed that i had to pay extra for the set 2 updat but i guess it’s better than buying a whole other game to play the set 2 cards. I would like the promo cards aswell for my personal collection but won’t be upset if i don’t get them. I plan to start playing online in the next few days and could only hope to play some nice honest players like you guys.

I just got an email saying that I was one of the first 500 people for the Eye Of Judgment contest. Check your inbox people :)

Thanks again to the EoJ crew for this promotion and all those that entered.

@smutdog – I hope I didn’t make you feel bad, I was just trying to point out the fallacies of your assumptions. No bad feelings on my part. Hope it’s the same for you…

Please, please, please… the list … I’m anxious to know if I made it!
If the list isn’t ready, how about an estimate of when the list might be ready? The proverbial date-for-a-date.

The waiting for confirmation is almost an extended repeat of the wait on Friday for when the link would be posted. I know, its my weakness – I have no patience. :o)

Or, how about just a reason for the delay:

1. “Sorry for the delay, we have some logistics to workout to make sure we have an accurate list without duplicates.”

2. “Sorry for the delay, the coder from India to which we outsourced our submission form totally forgot to implement the backend db to store the submissions. We are trying to retrieve the lost data from the Dept of Homeland Security’s internet surveillance database. Fortunately George W. is an EOJ fan and wants his promo cards, so he’s pulling some strings for us.”

3. “Sorry for the delay, but we are checking with our manufacturer to try to get more promo cards printed. We appreciate the EOJ fan response and would like to give cards to all submitters, but we can’t really communicate that until its finalized. I’m sure you all understand that if we announced we might do this and then it fell through, the firestorm would be worse than a Sciondar Inferno. So you didn’t just read this.”

I’m just trying to add some levity to the comments for others who are checking back hourly for an update :).

In all seriousness, I love the PS Blog, and I’m sure you will respond as soon as you can, and any result is fair. I don’t think any of us is entitled to anything. We all had equal opportunity to try to submit.

I can say it’s appciated, I been kinda made to feel, like poo today because of all this, I’d love to blame others, btu really I shouldn’t get so upset…. What started off as constructive for me as far as how to reward hard-core fans of the game got very personally and I made far tooo many assumptions on others, I just want to enjoy the game….. looking past promo cards…. I thinking the bigger problem for me was having to play other outside North America who had set while we could even use it even if we ordered set from over seas…. either way I love the game but hate how certain things are handled, and really just want that to improve in the future, I love this game and am very competative, but I hate that some see me as thinking im better than others, I just really want those who really care about the promo to get the cards, and ebay vultures not to….. if there were 500 people who got in before me that are fans regardless of their level…. My original intent was to be constructive and maybe have the online “Honor” system truly mean something. My short fuss got me in trouble, but I know who and what im about as do many others, there are others out there even more deserving than me for these promos in my eyes (dukkhah, Real Gambler, GonzoBob, Lgass to name a few) but I assumed alot because I truly know how much i care, bt it was really overshadowed with anger and finger pointing on my part after taking what I considered some harsh words to what I considered a debatable topic, I was wrong with many thing (Online vs. Offline commintment, etc.)
and just hope for no more delay and more careful planning when set 3 is done (i.e. Zealots)

So to the smartguwiththefro thanks for making me feel better and human again…. time to get online to play some EOJ

Personally, I think it would be great if there were some way of rewarding hardcore gamers, as well as more promotions for newcomers, but if the only way to track the “hardcoreness” of a player is through online, I really don’t see how this would be fair, since many of us don’t play online (due to being kicked off, lack of face-to-face contact, loading issues, cheating, skill equality, etc.)

I sincerly hope Mark has been reading these last few posts, and perhaps has a better understanding on gamer’s stances (and if you are reading this, Mark, please update us on the results!!!). But let’s not get too carried away, and remember that these are FREE promo cards, and I believe that complaining is completely unwarranted, seeing as the delay was a relatively minor one.

@smutdog- even though my viewpoint differs from yours, I’d like to say that you have gained my respect for listening and accepting others thoughts, unlike some other users who post on the blog
