Title: Maximum number of cards that can be checked in.
Post by: Kordel Lentine on June 12, 2011, 06:22:04 PM
I know that the 3rd edition rulebook says that there is NO maximum for number of cards that a tournament deck can hold as long as it obeys the Lost Soul rule.  However, I thought for sure that the REG or Tournament Guide overruled that with a maximum for Type 1 and another for Type 2, but now I can't find it.  Anyone know the answer to that offhand?  Thanks.

He's not a real elder. I think he's Rob Anderson's brother

*Part owner of CGD.  I think he's an Elder so he can get in on the playtesting board.

Kory is real old-school - He's been a part of redemption from the start, and as Kittens already pointed out, he's a part owner of Cactus. He's been out of the loop recently, but is starting to get back into the swing of things - His Elder status is a symbol of the respect he is due for his long term involvement with Redemption in a leadership capacity. While he wasn't on the playtest team this year, and isn't 100% up to date on rulings, his word is as good as any other Elders.

I wasnt trying to imply anything negative, just that he wasnt like the other elders on here that post every day, playtest, are up to date on the reg, etc

Actually that is only true of about half of the "other" elders. Not all elders are active members of the boards.

9)  Deck Limits:  no T1 Deck may contain more than 154 cards.  No T2 Deck may contain more than 252 cards.

These rules are to be used in regular play and at tournaments.

That's cool, glad he decided to re-assert himself into the game.

In addition to his other qualities, he is one of probably two people in the world who has played Redemption underwater (the other being his opponent--I forget who that was though).

Yes, it was Jason (O'rourke).  I still have details and pictures of that game on my website at http://www.lentinefamily.com/redemption_scuba.html

154 for t1, 252 for t2.

Rawrlolsauce, thanks for that information.  Can you remind me where that information is currently listed (in the REG, Tournament Guide, etc.).  At this point it's just bugging me that I can't remember where I saw it.
