 		Mysterious site upgrades
Some more info, these two tidbits have appeared on my "solved cards" page in the last day or so...

"domroberts has solved xxx cards (0 promo cards, xx complete sets) in xxx attempts, with xx cards left to solve in Season 1."

"Special Edition Cards
domroberts has not solved any Special Edition cards yet."

I have no idea what "promo cards" could mean, as I solved my first 6 or so cards with the promotional codes, and also the two recent Wave4 previews. As my figure is zero, it must be something different, maybe promotional packet inserts for Wave 4. (Conjecturing is such fun. I'd like to point out that I have zero insider knowledge. I dont even know *where* the inside is lol)

And 'Special Edition' cards could mean more hens-teeth-editions following on from the Gold #257 Cube card... What could come after Gold for #258? A platinum card, a diamond card, a kryptonite card even? *smirks*

Oooo the suspense is growing! Roll on 31st July! Very Happy

 		Well, that answers one question I had--was wondering how they were going to handle the "solved cards" count when Season Two comes about. I thought maybe they might reset the counters, but it looks like they're not going to do that.

 		Just to add, aswell. There is a card 258 on the site now, a promo Issue 0 called A Call From The Past. Apparently it is from the "none" set and is worth 10 points.

 		If that's not the card they're supposed to be giving out at ComicCon, I'll eat my keyboard.

Also there is now a real picture on the site of the promo, all other wave 4 cards now have a question mark picture

Don't be so sure... Who knows what goodies will be available at the Borders launch on the 31st? PXC is still a predominantly British phenomenon so I really dont think MC would let those pesky Americans (humour, honest!) get something that we cant Wink

Anyway, if there are no special cards to be had at the launch, I suggest we all kidnap a Mind Candy exec and pinch his keys. Then we can raid the MC offices for rare cards/the cube/goodies/biscuits or whatever takes our fancy!

*evil grin*

 		card list?
I know the cards are coming out in just a couple weeks and my pre-orders should be here within another week thereafter, but my curiosity has the best of me. Would someone mind PMing me their list of the card names and what-have-you?

Would appreciate it Smile

 		Since MC asked me to take the list down from the post, I doubt they'd appreciate that.

But hey, if someone does want to do it, I can't stop 'em.
