So yesterday saw the arrival of boxes and packs of Season 2 Perplex City cards to a lot of players, myself included. I am sure a lot of enthusiastic opening then took place! From what I can gather, the distribution has been pretty damn good this time round, kudos to Mind Candy there! You are guaranteed something similar to this in a box of 36 packs:

4 silver
14 black (1 complete set, 4 spare)
24 purple (2 complete sets, 4 spare)
24 blue (2 complete sets, 4 spare)
24 green (2 complete sets, 4 spare)
38 yellow (3 complete sets, 8 spare)
45 orange (3 complete sets, 9 spare)
43 red (3 complete sets, 7 spare)

The general consensus is that they are generally following that order, sometimes only 3 silvers though. The packs and the boxes are extremely pretty, pictures are up (or soon to be up) on my flickr, so take a peek if you’ve not had the chance to see. And there will be no spoilers as to cards on my flickr for those concerned.

There was a pretty excitable bunch waiting for the card solves to be allowed. We reckoned about 5 or 6ish GMT it would open, but alas, it was not to be. I assume Mind Candy had a couple of errors with card solve forms and needed today to work at it, which is understandable, and also more fair on those that were unable to gain access to cards until today, so everyone is happy there!

While we were waiting, it was noticed that http://www.perplexcitystories.com was updated with a video to watch, which kept us occupied for a while. There was also a look back at Season 1 which was posted up, along with pictures and a competition, here! This was great to look through, there were some lovely pictures to see.

So, the official time that Mind Candy have given us for Season 2 card solving now is:

March 2nd 17:00 GMT

Happy solving guys, and enjoy the start of the new Season. I look forward to the new ARG starting! Watch this space for more updates on the official Season 2 launch of the card solving aspect.
