@Chairman Kaga:
Instead of updating the rules to blame the players why not just fix the issue? Players shouldn't have to pay more money/trade more/etc. for a reverse foil version of a card just because the regular foil becomes so warped. You think they would've learned their lesson after the Deoxys foils and to some extent, the Regigigas sleeves.
Have to agree with this.
It's not a players fault that cards become warped as drastically as they do. When I was at some of the Black and White PRs, I pulled multiple holos that were already warped. Even putting them in a sleeve didn't help matters, as it was still apparent that that card was, in fact, a holo. It's not the players fault by any stretch when a holo is coming out of the pack already warped. It can only get worse from there if they don't know what exactly to do.
After the awful Deoxys holos, I would've thought the same thing, that they would've known better. This has been an issue for as long as I can remember, save for the Base Set to Skyridge cards. I don't remember there ever being much of an issue with those (heck, I've had some of the old metal energies from Neo Genesis, and the old Wizards holo energy, and I've never had issues with them).
I mean, I'd like to give TPCi the benefit of the doubt, since they did sort of fix the issue involving reverse holos from the HGSS cards. Remember the HGSS base set? Those Reverse Holos CURVED. We still saw that for sets like Unleashed, and undaunted, but, Triumphant seemed to correct the problem iirc. Call of Legends seemed to have the best results in actually producing playable reverse holos, at least, to my knowledge (...yeah, I know, something good about the worst set in the history of pokemon ;x).
I just hope that Black and White holos down the road are attended to. That, or, I'd like to see non-holo versions printed again (I think the former is far more likely, which, I can understand that).
