Well, I for one don't believe PUI showed us Professors any lack of respect. Or the players. However, like many things, the work of PUI has both bright and darker sides. I for one appreciate the fact that, with another company working on Italian cards and Marcello/Prof Donphan watching over the...

An honest player does an honest mistake only once, after which it gets the judge's verbal warning. The second time, honest mistake or not, a penalty is appropriate. I, as a judge, told the player both how to do that right, and also that Bad Things would happen the following time. If you do that...

A side note on my post on page 2: of course, I was talking about a "standard", no-prize-other-than-rating tournament when I said it wasn't even worth of a Caution. The whole penalty "scale" should be raised accordingly to the "seriousness" of the event. In fact I did give a Caution for not...

Well, no offense, but this whole Supporter thing seems a bit stupid... I've been a judge at the Italian nationals, and NO penalty was handed out for discarding supporters too fast! The only time a penalty should be given, IMHO, it's if someone plays two Supporters on the same turn, which...

Me too :) [email protected]

As a side note: the Italian distributor is Nexus Edizioni, who manages LotR OP and distribution in Italy, is the exclusive reseller of Decipher product here and seems to be involved with some part of UpperDeck Italia (read: Yu-Gi-Oh) as well. ...at least they translate the cards RIGHT, unlike...

[IMHO mode, I could and probably AM wrong.] For the LCII thing: PUI already decided WotC wouldn't produce cards anymore. PUI wanted WotC's DCI player database, probably to start with an already-estabilished player ladder. WotC asked WotC's Lawyers who told WotC they'd be getting into a law...

Here I come :'( Prof|l0ne : Emanuele Vulcano : Milano : Italy

Ooooooh, I just love this set's Pokémon :o. Oooooh, just look at Espeon, and then at Wobbuffet, and then at Pichu, and then at Linoone, and then at the EXs, and then at... ...well, A DUNSPARCE THAT DOES NOT S**K!!! oooooh... - l0ne

Here in Italy we still have leagues. We still have a community. We still hold tournaments. We - the Italian professors - organized a tournament, the last DCI-sanctioned in Italy, on August 31st. We invited people from all the leagues we could get in contact with, and we made a great event with...

Er, we simply need the Expedition block in Modified along with EX. That, or EX2 should better have a gorgeous Trainer base, because without good Trainers no deck's going anywhere. Because the Trainers in EX are just, well... extremely low level Trainers. They can't support any serious...

I hear that Nintendo OP will start in mid-September/October in the whole Europe along with the launch of localized versions of EX. Now, it's not like I have insider sources or something like that, but the few people I know are quite well-connected and if they tell me something, it usually...

Ooooooh. Thank you thousand :D - l0ne

Whoops :'( It was supposed to be a reply to the Pokémon TCG lingo topic :'(. /me stupid didn't check :'( - l0ne

Re: above My explanation of InSaNiTy was, you know, quite ironic. :D That is, InSaNiTy's a bit zen-like: you really don't know how it feels to play InSaNe until you actually do. On the techincal side: InSaNiTy is a deck that is mainly composed of TecH Trainer cards (up to 46 in one of its...

Well... there's also all the abbreviations, you know... DCE = Double Colorless Energy CPU Search = Base Set's Computer Search GoW = Gust of Wind promote = to take a Pokémon out of the Bench in the Active spot bench hitter/bench hitting = A Pokémon or a move that severely weakens your...

I'm here too! (I know you don't know who I am, but, er... :D). [lurk mode on] - l0ne Italian WotC Pokémon Professor
