Something like that. Idk.
666 is like that, but info on 777 is wrong.
7, just 7, is the number of good.

777 is the number that you've hit jackpot in casinos; has nothing to do with a religious origin. ;)
That's incorrect.

I see, I try to nip it in the bud on the 1st page and no one listens. 3 and 1/2 pages later Mike drops the hammer and instant silence.

I guess I know my place #amateurmod

FYI I was finally able to snag an EB and add on that gold deck. $40 shipped for these 3 decks is not a bad price at all IMO.

EDIT damn spell check

I got amateur moderator out of that, but I could be wrong. I get the general idea though. I picked up a half brick box, but a bit on the fence on the box.

Something about triples being absolute and 7 being the number of divinity. "666" actually derived from triple-7. Learned that a very long time ago.

It has religious connotations.

Edit: Sorry, Mike. Not really trying to discuss religion. The subject is kinda relevant to this deck, though. I don't see anything getting heated - which I think should be taken into consideration where politics and religion are concerned.

I get the error message "there was an error processing your card" when trying to pledge on Kickstarter. I never received this message before. Does somebody know why I get this and how I can fix it?
I get this error only when pledging for this particular project.

It essentially means just that. Usually the card declined for some reason. No money, the card company thought the charge was questionable. I don't think Kickstarter accepts prepaid cards, if that is what you did. What you have to do, is try the card again or another card. If you don't "fix" it within the proscribed time period, your funding will not go through and you will be "dropped" as a backer.

But this is strange. Usually the error appears after the project is funded and Kickstarter tries to collect the funds. But in this case, the error appears when I simply try to pledge.

That is strange. Have you used the same card on Kickstarter before? With a KS project using Canadian dollars? If it's not a currency issue then I have no clue :uggrin:

Not true. I use a Revolut prepaid card for all my KS purchases and it saves me a substantial amount as they charge no extra fees and give very close to the mid market rate. When a lot of KS are in different currencies this can be a substantial savings.

I managed to find the problem today trying to pledge for the Sirocco campaign. My bank flagged the Kickstarter terminal as fraudulent in the past, so they blocked it. You can unblock it it on your responsibility, however. So the decline can happen both when pledging or when the pledge is collected.

LOL not sure why I thought it was you, nor why I didn't feel it necessary to scroll up a couple centimeters to doublecheck.

Just picked these up and I must say between these and the very excellent Sirocco decks I am very excited about Riffle Shuffle premium. That's why I went in for Sin City. Well done. I didnt really care that much for the regular RS decks that I had gotten up to this point except for maybe those Skulls ones. The 1000 Crane triple case was cool but the deck was just not my style.
I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.

Well between me and you, Murphys Magic have just got a few in stock so just keep an eye on your favourite Murphys retailer ;)
I would offer to grab some for you but being the wrong side of the pond, it would double the price of the deck in shipping.

Because you can only buy from Murphie's if you have a retailer account or something like that if I'm not mistaken.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

As Harvonsgard said, Murphys is distributor, so retail only. You would need to keep an eye on someone like https://playingcarddecks.com. Most (if not all) card stores will have a Murphy's account so if you have a favourite, why not drop them a message asking if they can help you out.
