I'm exclusively a Traditional player. I always kept my small collection of Decipher cards close, and I like to do something with it.
Printing cards, to me, would seem like... betraying my Decipher cards. They're a jealous bunch. (Which is not to say that I am not in awe of the work which has been done by the CC. I really appreciate the new cards, additions and mechanics, even if I don't play with them. I always look forward to new expansions.)
Also, I'm almost exclusively First Edition-only for now. (I.e., no 2e-1e Compatible cards, preferably*.)
So, I'm not sure whether any New Bajor area players would be... that much backwards compatible with me? Who would want to time-travel back to 1995!?
But I still like 1995. Proudly flying a Husnock boat with Chris Hobson... so to speak. Which would make me, primarily, a casual player -- but I would like to get a taste of a tournament, one day.
And just meeting, talking about the game, and/or trading could be fun as well?
Edits, 18.10.29~31:
I really like the crew/team building, affiliation, and story-telling aspects of the game.
Moreover, creating decks, and the game itself, still takes me a lot of time, and I feel the need to be able to do some things at my own speed. (Which, at times, is "thrusters only". ) Hence, for now, I prefer pre-constructed, and untimed, gameplay.
*:I do have a single 2e Dorian Collins, and a Saavik, which I like to use in decks... but only because I don't have them as 1e cards. (I do have something to say about Dorian's conversion, though... If nobody noticed... )
So... that's me. Sorry that it took so long, and that it is so long. I did already delete 30% of this post, before hitting send! I have trouble keeping texts short, especially when I'm enthusiastic about something -- like this game!

I'm curious about it and I certainly like to try it one day (if I can get the software to work on my old workstation) but for the moment, I'm focus(s?)ing strictly on (re-)learning to decently play with 'physical' cards...
