When the first story came out, I emailed the reporter and told him he should kicks a few tires about the background of that trio, and lo and behold he did. Too bad I didn't get a quote. 
wned:
As for the cost of the doing the imaging of The Cup, etc., I find it difficult to believe this would be such a chore. Yes, it's time-consuming and labour-intensive -- as the process is done now.
But there have to be ways around that. Producing all of one set or one player's cards at the same time and then shooting a hi-res scan of the whole bunch can't be that difficult. If it necessitates a change in production, what's the problem?
The biggest issue here is the lack of any formal response about any of this from UD, and I don't mean from Karvin (we don't always agree, but it's my understanding this isn't part of his job description, and yet here he is on occasion, putting himself out there to take crap). I mean action from the top of the company -- a videochat or press release explaining exactly WHY UD either can't or won't doing anything about this.
If they do that and give us all sufficient reasons, I'll be satisfied. Until then, I won't.
