Agreed, coin for the boatman would be appropriate although we don't really need to cross that river yet, do we? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Although coin is always an option, in fact I'm working on something way more interesting and kinda "industry first" thing. Although you can never know with Travis's and Mary Jane's marriage invitation cards :ugthink:

In a few days and after Grotesk Macabre hopefully gets funded I'll reveal the animated deck. Also, as Mike said (I wonder where did he get the info from :lol: ) I'm working on something new. I'm not 100% there (I also have ICONS I'm working on) but I think it will be announced soon, too.

Here's the animation they are referring to. To be honest this was the only reason I went with 2 decks and included the LE, based on this I think I'll keep it. Lately I'm trying to get just a single deck and only a single type in any new project. I'm bored of all the variation add-on decks for projects these days. This one somehow still made the cut.

Something Even Wickeder This Way Comes - Soon!

Unread post by Mike Ratledge »

I've got a secret (again), and something truly extraordinary that we recently discussed is getting ready to happen. It's not the big dogs, they are all on the porch, but someone with vision and the ability to change the game is knocking on the door. Time for the guessing game to begin again.

This one won't be as easy as previous guessing games, though. "Let the games begin!"

I've been saying this for weeks now and I hope we're right! Can't wait for this to happen...

EDIT: Is Lotrek's most recent update hint related to this?
Reaching the 17K mark... Something big and very dark is coming! I've been sneakily working on something new that many collectors dream to see. I won't reveal it yet as I love such games. I'll just say that it's delightfully dark to the core! More to come soon ;-)

A deck when you shuffle it, you'll see an image moving.
"When I like something, I buy. No matter who did it, how many were printed or how many (re)colors exist.

When I don't like something, I pass. No matter who did it, how many were printed or how many (re)colors exist."

Man, bruno wasn't really online at all when I started hanging around here, I have to say, love his posts!

Thanks for being animate and quirky Bruno!

Lotrek, have you tested a prototype deck with the animation? I haven't really seen an animated deck that was actually cool. Hopefully Macabre changes that!
