Season 2 Poll I was just wondering how many people are getting season 2 cards tomorrow (or the next few days after launch) and who aren't.
If you aren't I would love to know your reason, I'm not getting any and my reason is... I really dunno why, just decided not to.

I think people who are more interested in the ARG aspect are holding off until perplexcitystories.com goes live. Without a Cube to find, the cards aren't very compelling.
I'm buying cards tomorrow (two mail orders + going to FLGS), because I like the puzzles as much as the plot (and I'm enjoying being #1 on the leaderboard for as long as I can manage it).

What's the point in buying the cards? They have no value outside of collecting, unless you want to support MC through sales.
You don't need the cards to play.
I wouldn't have bought season 1 cards if that had been clear from the beginning.

I want to buy the cards because I like the puzzles on them (and I'm a sucker for anything collectable) but I just decided not to bother for S2, no real reason just decided not to for now. Might be getting a voucher for firebox soon, that might change my mind...

I love the cards. They're super fun, and they give me something to do while I wait for more game things to happen. They're also a chance for me to interact with friends in a Perplexy kind of way, when they may not be ARG people.
Yes, I said Perplexy. That's how I feel when I play PXC. It's sort of like happy and completely confused at the same time.

I love the cards. I don't get into the ARG as much.

ARG vs Card came it not if i'm buying but when they will come. (some time in the next 24 hours )
most of my time being Perplexy was doing the solving cards there a real thing that you can pick up and play with. in facet's the more ARG bit like the 2 years of back blogs got in the way of the game and the story. so I'm happy that the card game is back now.
and there is no were else to get real pulzzes. unless you what to do the 6x6 sudok in the back of most news papers.

I wanted and planned to get cards, but refuse to pay 32 squid just to get a Firebox order out to Australia. I have just as much fun trying to help out with solves on the forums anyhoo.
