There’s this. So cycle 4 COTG Prime is 3 new GWF cards. So 4 is ready but not a peep on 3. Bud Light PR is on top of this one. I'm pretty lost as to what the wait to publish is, if the column is "finished." Especially since Monday we were told "the next day or so," then yesterday we were told "in the next few days," and now a day later it's again "the next few days" but that the column is "finished." Does FG legal have to go over it first? |

I have no life but at least I do not have a life that revolved completely around this game. Your selfish and self absorbed take is not a flattering look for you, on the edge. |

Guys, I tend to stand by this: what if the Pro Prime Cycle 3 is a tie in to the teased at GCON XXXIII COTG App, and includes three characters that are new to the COTG lore? Maybe the announcement is waiting until the app is up.
As Pete mentioned, they aren’t going to want to have to issue refunds if the cards are only 9 per the year for COTG. Executioner, the argument about it being an issue with all three game lines - is that pro prime not having announcements? If so, we know that the Pro Prime for the Indies is tied to the Deathmatch set (Zeke has touted that repeatedly on the boards), and we got an Afa Jr. teaser last Friday, so we know there is stuff coming from Legends. So I guess I am a bit confused by your post, and I apologize for that. Can you clarify so I can better understand your post?

At this point I have strong belief that the app is Dead with a capital D.
I think it's pretty straightforward: even though Legends and Indies seem to drive the FG bus nowadays, there are still players who are primarily COTG folks, and they're--quite frankly--feeling shafted. Especially since each new "announcement" just seems to raise further questions--like, COTG Prime Cycle 4 is almost done? What happened to Cycle 3, then?
An issue with COTG as opposed to Legends is that you can't really just drop a, "Hey everyone, here's Bad News Allen! Enjoy, promoters!" Yeah, yeah, it's "up to you, promoter," but there are fans invested in the actual COTG story and that's going to require more than just sending us 3 COTG drawings+stats (I wouldn't dignify them by calling them "characters" based on what we know) and telling us to have at it.

Same with the 3 for Indy PP. Why no announcement? Why no information? This "issue/thread" has been bubbling for almost 2 months. |

Assuming the 3 PP names are the 3 Samoans, is there a point to drawing that out over 3 weeks? Unless they REALLY have a bombshell and are waiting to unleash Fatu on us, or someone else entirely and Afa, Jr. is the only Samoan this cycle. |

I asked Tom for news on PP cycle 3 on his twitter and was told that “Inside Tom’s Brain” should be released tomorrow. We’ll see if that happens.

Pete, I mean we knew one name in PP for Cycle II (Joe Malenko). Are we really actively counting on them teasing each name? I mean I guess right now, they haven’t failed to provide the service I have paid for. If I read the descriptor on the website of what I paid for it is 12 cards per year, with three cards being released four times per year. FG only fails to meet their obligation to me, imo, when they fail to get me 12 cards in the year. The communication has not been clear, but again I am just gonna sit and wait with my pitchfork, until FG fails in meeting their obligation via PP. |

I messaged FG on Wednesday asking them to say something on this subject. I was told to expect something "soon". Here we are with still no information. This problem was entirely preventable, yet Tom turns a blind eye. |
