Why would I? You seem to be very comfortable discussing your victimization in the open up to this point.

Nice try making this about me.

Is it also my fault that the numbers are what they are? THAT'S the issue that I would think would be more of a concern to the people responsible for maintaining and growing the game. I'm not seeing a lot of maintenance, let alone growth.

In part, yes. Because you're helping create a toxic environment, no more or no less than every other party in this ridiculous play for power.

You think I want power?

You don't know me nearly as well as you think you do.

You? no. I don't think you could handle it. Your puppet master? Hell yeah!

I played my first IRL game in about 18 months today. I don't think there's anything tptb could have done to make it happen sooner.

Edit: since that probably misses the point of the original post, it was almost my first 1e game since worlds 2016 as well. We ran out of time to do the 1e.

How did 1e get on the menu? Matt brought some decks with him. He got onto the nostalgia train during lockdown.

For me, there's some curiousity because of the large Facebook group and very active boards here (any nerd conversation port in a dry spell, right?). I have to say I love what I see (from a distance) of Charlie's activity on the boards as 1e director.

Nothing that I know right now about 1e makes it appealing to me, but the ongoing hype means I have to give it a real shot in the form of actual gameplay.

Other random thoughts:

- Two of the most active 2e groups are about to come back online, Seattle/Vancouver and London. I guess the PNW people play 1e as well so that's a wash? But London is 2e-only.
- I'm disappointed that there's never been a permanent front page link to Lucas's starter/challenge decks, which remain the best way to introduce new or returning 2e players.
- Hype from the Facebook group helps 1e, but it is mostly ignorant. You see most people saying, "I was never interested in 2e", but also, "oh there's costs on cards in 2e?" so it's hardly an informed opinion.

If you do this, I hope you'll post your reaction, good or bad. I, for one, would very much love to have you, specifically, return to playing 1E sometimes, and it would be a good window into what's keeping current 2E-only players from doing so.

People are still playing this game but they don't do tournaments from CC's website. Also they're quite a few new groups making their own 2E cards which are far more entertaining compared to CC's. :twocents:

Please keep any such links, especially if to graphical dream cards, off the forum.
