From my records,

Wave 1: July 2005
Wave 2: 23 November 2005
Wave 3: 6 April 2006
Wave 4: 31 July 2006

Sorry don't know the exact date for Wave 1, I wasn't involved back then.

These are the UK dates, don't know if it's been different elsewhere.

Hope this helps.

 		Wave 1 is a bit of a grey area. There's the date when we first saw a small number of cards, then the date when a bunch of stores got them, and then the date when the site opened for solves.

Looking at Scarlett's blog (our main contact at the time), the best date I can find is July 8 2005, when Playlounge first had them for sale.

Though if you need this for what I think you do, you probably want the date the site opened for solves, right?

 		Well.. the exact date for Wave 1 isn't too important... all that really matters is that Wave 1 is counted as being before the start of Wave 2. For all intents and purposes I could pick wave 1 to start on Jan 01, 2000 (which is what i did), and everything still works...

stay tuned Smile

That would be the first time they were available to anyone as Reason was the first chap to buy a pack in the world ever. They were released at 3.33 pm if that's important and they wouldn't sell them to him a second before despite the box of cards being sat behind desk. Laughing

Weren't some given out at a party a few days before that? Or am I imagining that?
