My point was that if we get some guidance on the reprint status now, it would head off arguments and hurt feelings in 8 years. And people could base their decisions and actions now on facts instead of speculation.

It could even be some sort of middle ground announcement, like saying the AoTF won't be reprinted before 2030, but after that it might or might not be reprinted.

That said, I'd totally understand if Jeff didn't want to pin himself down 8 years in advance.

that would back him into a corner...it would force it one way or another. He shouldnt have to state that. Because 8-10 years is a long time away

Besides, hoarders can still sell some to mitigate their exposure if they choose. But for those who turned their AoTFs into CoAs, that train left the station years ago, and there’s nothing they can do about it now. An explicit answer doesn’t much matter anymore, and a nambypamby one is totally useless.

I believe in the post discussing this the phrasing was something along the lines of "if true dungeon is still around by then".

I know a lot of you have sick collections going back to the dark ages, etc, but just wanted to chime in here as a (relatively new) token collector that it feels REAL bad to be going on several runs as a new player, and pulling 3 tokens per run while you watch other people pull 7-17. TEs go beyond pure 'collectibility', since the difference between having one or not fundamentally changes the economics of a True Dungeon run for those that have them.

Personally, I don't mind so much the lack of reprints for stuff like Rod of 7 Parts, or the Teeth that we're in the middle of, but since TEs create a significant wealth disparity, I totally understand the new players' perspective here, and the argument from the POV of 'unique, limited-run collectible' holds less water for me.

That and to echo Druegar it's a gamble for both sides. While i support reprints for something like this i also far more rather not see Jeff/TD get backed into a corner. Realize that TD tokens like any other collectible game is a gamble period. Put as much or as little money as you feel you want to risk and understand that.

The Amulet of Treasure Finding will not be reprinted, but that does not preclude the possibility of printing a very similar token at some point in the future. We need some flexibility to react to how the game changes over the years.

Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks, Jeff! That does clear things up!

Is it just me, or when Jeff post something like this, he should have a GIF of a mic drop.

While i extremely don't like this effective/quasi 'reserve' list i'm hoping that by alluding to a functional reprint said new token will and can be used in the future transmute. Long as there is an alternate recipe i'm okay, see CoA. Otherwise it's time for a sell off as this burns a lot of mid range players who didn't grab one or didn't know it existed before hand. Seems we're in a player acquisition stage between the various new cons why would we want to handicap.

I'm not saying make stuff 'cheap (and that's a moving target/demographic #) but at least for something that affects token/run economics this stuff should be available. In the end of CoA you could make all the points buy soaking up AoTF, you still couldn't make one for less than i think 700 at the time. Just so people know there is a viable path to acquire what many consider must have long term tokens.

There are 285 rules of acquisition. Who's up for a 285 year story arc?

Most definitely

Yes because a person can choose to not spend any money on tokens and then they won't be gambling.
