Subject: wotc 15+ intentions

Dear Jason,

I met you at one of the qualifiers, you gave me you business card which
I have of course  misplaced.  So I am writing you here.  I read your
letter and I  agree 1,000% with it.  I sent a similar letter from our
league with about 20 names to wizards, guess what no response.
A suggestion, why don't you write a letter to wizards on behalf of all
the players thru out the world.  Allow us to ad our names and email
addresses to it , to show wizards that we stand united against their
hair brain schemes.  I have $10,000 invested in pokemon.  A family of
five that 3 members are now out of the picture due to Wotc.
My kids have requested harry potter and magic cards since pokemon is
going down the tubes.  If a pkg. has wotc on the back they can't have
it.  They have now switched to dbz by Score.  So wotc ideas flopped on
my family.  I think if we made this crystal clear, that if they don't
stop screwing up the game, that we will not only boycott their pokemon
cards but anything they make.  Several sources where I used to buy their
cards are no longer carrying wotc products, as they feel that wizards
has turned their back on them as well.
A couple stores said they ordered neo 3 1st ed boxes for customers like
me who collect as well as played, and they received none but the
unlimited.  Wizards even cut their order on these way down.  If wizards
doesn't reverse their policies and practices they will never get another
cent from me no matter what game they devise.
I think if enough of us got together we could hurt wotc so much
financially that they would pay attention to what we say.  What they are
doing to pokemon they did to magic before.
Lets not let them get away with pushing our opinions to the side, lets
stand together and fight back.
