I picked up a deck and three boosters the other day. I feel my
collecting urge already. Let's go ahead and start a seperate list at
least for the time being. I think the wheeling and dealing of trying to
get a whole set might be a bit much on this list.
And while I'm at it, what's the role call on list members who have
succumbed to this madness.

I am trying to keep myself from buying more.

I bought 8 boosters at the gaming store last Saturday. They had sold
out of starters so I'm going out of my mind waiting until next
Saturday to go get a starter box! Argh! $21 down the drain...

Is it normal to get two of the same card in a single booster?

Watch me pull a list out of my hat!
Shit, guess it didn't work :)

Not sure if Mark is back from vacation, but I imagine we will be setting up
a SRTCG list at itribe.net sometime ASAP..

It's not normal, but it does happen. I've gotten dupes in a single Booster
for Magic, Netrunner, and Werewolf before, so getting it in SR wouldn;t
surprise me.

The SRTCG list is offically up. Check out another post I just made for
subscription info.

That happens to me alot, and I've bought close to 35 boosters so far.
The duplicates are usually commons.

(Note, the SRTCG list is now available for such discussions. :o)

I dunno Bull. I scored a box of boosters today, and almost every third pack
had doubles of the first uncommon.
Not too big a deal, I needed the chipjacks anyway! ;-)

I'm still putting a "Needs" and "Willing to Trade/Sell" list together,
I picked up another deck and three boosters that I need to add. (The
trade list is getting a bit lengthy.)

Once, done I'll be putting the info out via the SRTCG list.
(Another plug/reminder that this list is now up.)

I've got a few answers for you from similar one's that came up talking
to Skuzzy and Mike Mulvihill at GC.

However, to save bombarded ShadowRN with even more lengthy SRCTG mails
I'll post the answers I have to the SRTCG list.
