Man, here I was waiting for those tree-hugger expansion packs... maybe next year...

Regardless, awesome Rob, thanks for letting the speculation go wild.

Wow!  That is awfully odd....how is the next set going to release?!?  You've just eliminated the three major ways that it can be released:
- not a starter deck
- not a tin
- not a booster pack

- not in a house
- not with a mouse
- not in a tree
- just let me be  8)
I've collected different game and sports cards.  Going from past experience:
 It is either a boxed set (like Baseball & other sports cards)

-or-

By individual sales?

That's the only thing I can really think of, but it seems (from a non-businessman's perspective) to be a strange choice for a CCG.

What the next set is not ...

Hmmm....


the next set is not not a starter deck
the next set is not not a tin
the next set is not not a booster pack

... ?  Starters in tins with brand new boosters?

The only thing not brought up in this post is the fact your ALL assuming that there is a new one.

Could it be NO new set this year?

His post implies there IS a set, it's just not anything we expected it to be.

vary true, i think he has posted this manly just to tell us that is nothng were expecting so if would quit guessing what we think we know and just wait that would make everything much more enjoyable when it does come out.

It couldn't be that there isn't one this year because it just says "the next set is not" not "this years set is not."

Packaged with bubble gum?
Downloadable off itunes?
Included in cereal boxes?
Comes with a life sized Rob Anderson doll?

Ok, before Foof came out, if I remember correctly I kept saying we should have some sort of product like what decipher did with star wars, an enhanced set (certain amount of new cards, with 3 - 5 boosters), the next set was Tins. 

Recently I've been thinking we need a new type of constructed deck.  A Theme, or tournament type deck.  Most other CCG/TCG's that are still going have done it by now, maybe it's Redemption's turn?

4 - 6 new Theme decks FTW!

Hey, what it's bundled with the new version of RTS.....
Or, what if there are only 20 new cards, all future deck staples with no fluff? And further, what if the only way to get said cards was by sending in ten UPCs? You get a free booster pack and one of the new cards?
Supercheap for Cactus as far as printing, no need to ship to Christian books stores (who have done the crappiest possible job of promoting Redemption, as far as I can see!), and Rob sees a huge uptick in booster pack/ booster box sales!
Thank you, thank you, don't clap, just throw money....

Who says it's the next "redemption" set? He says the next "set."

Maybe he's driving us crazy because we've been too nosy, and it actually IS one of those three option. Really, he's talking about some other ccg and getting us on a rabbit trail while he has peace and quite to promote the next set. So we all know that Yu-Gi-Oh or MTG won't have starters, boosters or tins.

I know how he thinks.  :D
