Just in case somebody is confused, the "not" in ACiB is a typo, and it should read "Cannot be negated", and is played that way.

Oh so it can't be negated?? cause                              Can not be Negated -
                                                                                           not =                   
                                                                                    Can       be  Negated

he was the first player banned from redemption. legend has it was because he threw a carrot at a bus full of nuns at 200? southwest regionals. the following year e & f decks were released with the coopersmith error, and some say it was because of brian cooper. he has since been reinstated to full playing privileges, however.

also, my avatar is a picture of him taken from the kansas city newspaper story some years ago that was an interview of him and his banning. you can find the full article on www.pitch.com.

Link to the story here (Warning: language):
http://www.pitch.com/2004-04-15/news/deck-for-brains/

The article doesn't seem to like Rob and Christians.  Is there more to the story?  I don't think a player would be banned for coming up with a good deck.

(also: JiP is epic?  How old is this?)

The Alexander in the Bible was a coppersmith. A coopersmith is not a profession. I suppose it could be a title for someone who makes barrels out of metal...

My favorite typo is Thad.

from Di or Apostles??
he means the one from Di

I don't see the error??
The typo was the special ability.
It was supposed to read: "If Thaddeus wins a battle, remove all of your cards in play and set-aside areas from the game regardless of protection (except Lost Souls.)

You were banned for saying, "Less than zero percent." You are now no longer allowed in any game venue that uses probability.

For anyone wondering, there were at least 2 sheets of the 2012 set that were printed with the silver shifted down a few milimeters, so the silver ink that fills the icon box doesn't start until just below the numbers in the icon box, and then continues below it.  I only saw them on two sets of the silver cards from the Judges tin, but it is likely that the error infected the whole sheet, meaning that every silver card in the set would have that issue for as many sheets as were misprinted.

The vast majority of those cards that I saw were printed perfectly.  This could be a very, very rare error.  How common this is won't be known until Rob gets the whole shipment.
