 		Newbie Q: Conflicting reports about season 1
Discontinue or continue printing cards?
Will Perplex City stop printing Season 1 cards? I read in a forum post that they will stop, but the video podcast says they will continue to print. Also, do you reckon FireBox will do a discount sale on Season 1 cards once Season 2 begins? I am planning on buying the boxes and want to wait if there will be a sale later on. Many thanks.

No, they've expressly said that Season 1 cards will continue to be available, with a separate scoreboard also continuing. I just looked for the relevant post over at the PC site, but the site is still down. Sad

Difficult to answer unless you work for Firebox/Mind Candy.
It wouldn't surprise me, though, if there is some sort of promotional offer. Firebox have previously had promotional PC offers, for example, with 5 packs for the price of 4. We can only wait and see...

 		here's the link to Guy at Mind Candy's post:
http://pxcforums.com/index.php?s=881c96535a0e4f5ac6ff20b77230e3d3&showtopic=1682

where he says:
'However, the Season 1 leaderboard will live on in the background, and you'll still be able to solve Season 1 cards, and rise up the Season 1 leaderboard, for quite some time.

 		The conflicting reports come from the choice of words MC uses. They stopped printing Season 1 cards a while ago, but that doesn't have anything to do with how long they will be available. Here's the Ask Mind Candy Q and A:

Quote:
Will season one cards continue to be printed after this final print run/ when season two cards start shipping?

Uh, we've printed an awful lot of them already...


The distributors have large surpluses...

 		UKVer2.0, i am just as much a newbie as hyeokmaxxcho, but would you mind PM-ing me with some info....

Started PXC mid jan but want to go as far as possible on Season 1 rather than just giving up and starting Season 2 instead. So ill be doing both seasons at once!! Very Happy
