Hello,

I'd like to announce that I received deck #23. Thank you so much, ibminer! The deck is just lovelyyyyy <3



Thanks for the update Gazeta, happy they made it! And thank you for the cool pictures, I love seeing them!  Grin

~
are these cards inside the pack? I did not see these with mine but I also did not open the pack.

Definitely in your pack, as Gazeta mentioned, each deck of cards comes with the 2 gold cards inside the box, labelled with the unique # of that specific deck.

Also maybe related:

The user Symmetrick has been banned, so haters of this user can breathe a sigh of relief. So discussion of this issue has lost its relevance.
It seems to be an autoban for being PossiblyCompromised.
Anyone could instantly autoban themselves by setting a secret question and attempting to fill it in during login, though.



I'm guessing the ban just didn't show up in the modlog so BPIP didn't record it.

I don't know if it was mentioned before, but few days ago I noticed that, when visiting profile of user that changed username, there is no note in security moderators log.

To be honest im not sure if Security moderators log would be good place to have a note like that, but it would certainly be good thing to document username changes. Specially in case if someone takes old username of person who changed it.

The general consensus had been that we shouldn't really be tracking username changes since the top reason for username changes have typically been done for privacy reasons, so we try to respect that. Here was theymos' response to this in the past. So, we've opt'd to not track that.

Just wanted to chime in to say that I received my set today (but have not opened the deck yet).  Love the design on the bottom of the stand and the customized shipping box.  Very, very cool!  Oh, and I was expecting shipping to take longer than it did, so thanks for the quick delivery.

Thank you TSC!  Very glad you enjoy them. You of course don't have to be a gambler or play poker to enjoy a cool set of Bitcointalk-related playing cards! Smiley

Noticed I had to edit my above post as the piece of art was not from @ibminer, but @bitbollo of course! Cheesy My bad, @ibminer you were confused I guess, but I can confirm here that my poker set safely arrived, thanks for that and if I have another idea that I think we'd both agree makes sense, I'll reach out to you.

Definitely was a bit confused when I read you had them already, but it all makes sense now! Cheesy  Happy to hear it arrived in one piece and that you enjoy it. I can't wait to hear what the idea is!

mine have arrived ! thanks!

Excellent, thanks for the confirmation & hope you enjoy it!




Thanks again to everyone for the support & orders, I still have plenty of collector's editions available if anyone else wants to get in on them, they won't be available forever!

That's a cool feature until it gets popular and somebody decides it would be fun to flood the payment network with millions of transactions to transfer the latest Lady Gaga video to all their friends...
That's one of the reasons for transaction fees.  There are other things we can do if necessary.

Obviously going back to a different time period here, but I am curious if Satoshi ever elaborated (privately or publicly) on the "There are other things we can do if necessary" comment here?

I'm glad you enjoyed it! But I will be taking it down in roughly 12 hours.

Noooo! Cheesy

It has been really fun playing poker with everyone, and it let me connect with people in a different way through the forum. A friendly game of poker definitely has the power to bring people together in a fun and unique way.

PG (PowerGlove) did an awesome job on the game itself, and continually kept improving it throughout April. Given the amount of time spent on everything, it is tough for me seeing it go. But a big thanks to theymos for keeping it going this long!

I still think it would be cool to see a monthly or yearly freeroll tournament with small BTC prizes for winners, but I'm probably getting carried away. Tongue

(also, shameless plug!)
Remember to check out the cool collector's deck & set I created to commemorate this awesome event! Wink

Hey ibminer, payment sent for my #55 reservation: 74ebe5fb4cbc338e2d4d492e8a3a393a58bf4f718c07b837d6c83490072837ca
Sorry for being a bit late, and thanks again for your patience. Let me know when you need more of my info. Cool
All good, and received, thank you bias!



For those who have purchased the full set, I made a slight change to the bottom of stands to make them even more unique: Wink



Current orders should be going out early next week, I'll reach out to everyone who has ordered with more information when they do. I ran into a small delay with the card manufacturer that I was able to work out, but it hindered the delivery time a bit. I have everything now but need some time this weekend to get current orders packed up for mailing. Thanks again to everyone, and I hope you enjoy them!

I was happy these eventually made it to Trofo, tbh I've now got some hesitation with the merit poker deck shipping to that country.

I was somewhat convinced these were going to get returned to me at some point, but with a little grit and determination, the postal service finally gave them up, smh. Definitely a few lessons learned here, I think part of the problem was special characters in addresses, but it also seemed like lazy postal workers at the destination. I wasn't getting much help on my side once they made it into the destination country.

I appreciate the patience, and am happy they survived with everything still there! & very happy you enjoy them! Smiley

Well, even if I'm in a hard destination for getting things from the US, I will give it a shot since Forum collectibles are not so common.
So, I'm reserving number 55 for the set edition. If it isn't a big fuss, I will send the payment in a day or two, since I'm on a trip, and the PM as well with my shipping details. Thanks!

Awesome, thank you bias! I've got you reserved for #55, send me at least the country name for an estimate on the shipping before you send the payment to make sure it is correct.

I was wondering when the sale will end (is there a cut-off date, or when all decks are pre-reserved/sold) and when card deck manufacturing is expected to begin.
~

Manufacturing has actually already begun on a portion of the decks (30 of them). I'm hoping they arrive to me by early next week and I can begin getting the sold decks/sets ready to ship. I don't really have an official cut-off date for sales at this point, but my thought has been to stop the sales a few weeks after merit poker ends, which I believe is happening at the end of April... but I haven't fully decided yet on a specific date to stop the sale itself.
