This, too. 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. 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. At this point it is about communication and good will. One has failed and the other is a bit strained. No ownership of any sort is icing on this messy dessert. |

Barry you keep saying that but parts of the Promoter Prime shop still mention “quarters” not cycles. “Priority Mail Shipping for each of the 4 quarters of Promoter Prime printed cards. For US Domestic Mail only.“ If you change information is the middle of a promotion from quarters to cycles, at least update all your information correctly to reflect that. |

Joe was a new name with no immediately discernible direct tie-ins: Boris was going to be in the proper set and we need to assume that Dean is unavailable until conclusively shown reason to believe otherwise. Prime was otherwise completely open-ended that cycle.
Afa, Jr. is one of 3 Samoans who were all released in black and white at roughly the same time. It's not an exact parallel but this is closer to hyping up Wolfie D for Prime and then waiting a week to announce J.C. Ice.
Maybe I'm wrong and being excessively fatalistic, but that's how it's come across, and when radio silence persists for this long, speculation is going to run rampant.
And...we're in the COTG section of the board. The Legends side is kind of a red herring anwyay. It's the COTG players who are the loudest on this subject because they've gotten *nothing* for this cycle. No art, no teases, no updates, no text, not even an inkling of what COTG line the cards will be a part of.

Man, I hope it's not tied to the app...that looked awful! A friend of mine that also plays the game was over when they showed it. We both looked at each other and said "I hope to god that isn't what they're trying to release". It was just a bunch of cards flopping around the ring if I'm remembering correctly (and it's almost completely out of my mind). It wasn't impressive at all. Maybe I'm not the market for it, but I didn't understand what was going on |

It's literally every post he says it's cycles, not quarters. WE ****** KNOW! |

What's funny about this is considering the lack of communication, and the anticipation built up by this thread, the cards are likely to be a bit disappointing, no matter how well they may have been received otherwise. Not sure how I feel about the cards possibly being a tie in to an app I'll never use though. I'm not really an app guy.

I'm grateful for anyone that signs for legends, but lets me honest: With all of the "turnmoil" going on for a couple weeks, and the name was Manu/Afa Jr...that didn't help, lol. |

Hey guys, sorry for the wait. I know Tom wanted everything to be stated accurately for his posting. This should hopefully provide many the answers folks are looking for. filsingergames.com/inside-toms-brain/ |

This should hopefully provide all the answers folks are looking for. filsingergames.com/inside-toms-brain/Tom somehow ignores taking any ownership of this mess. Pretty disappointed. I guess he offered "something" in a stream of thought. Rebuilding the strained goodwill is a task I hope Tom and FG is up for. |
