I have a question. I play at FNM nearly every Friday. However, the guy who runs the shop there tends to not send in his results, usually sending in about 3-6 months worth two or three times a year. Don't think I should report him as I don't want him getting into trouble but he never listens when I and a few others ***** about getting our player rewards screwed up heh. Anyway, I'm pretty sure he sent in some results this summer that should have gone on the last mailing (results from like March-May), does anyone know if these will be applied to my total for this mailing even though the tournaments were held before the last? Thanks.
Also, I live in Virginia and haven't received my mailing yet.
Woot! I emailed player rewards to see about my DCI #'s being combined. They said I didn't qualify in time this go round, but I already have for the next one, and that the first one of next year will still include the Wrath of God!!
The packaging error is thus far, only outside of the US. Mainly Europe from what I've seen thus far. My friend Shaun got 5 Wraths, however I think this is due to him being a judge.
This is driving me crazy because the store I play at has 50 person + FNM's and they are sanctioned and all but in the last couple months I've yet to see the DCI page display all the tournaments I've played.
I've emailed them and they promised they'd get them up asap, etc, etc. but if I miss out on Textless ***'s because of these bastards I will be royally pissed.

Now that is great news! I know I won't have 20 for this time around (haven't been able to attend many sanctioned events), but I surely will for the next one.
This is where irony sets in -- when this year's Premium was first announced, people were guessing that it would book around $30. Now that some people are getting as many as 21 in a single mailing, I'd guess these things will book less than the foil 9E version. The way it seems, there will just be more of the textless ones on the market.
Yay to Wizards for *not* affecting street prices... </sarcasm>
The Wrath's will pull the same, because there's a set amount of them printed. The way in which prices will be affected is by the initial value from the first shipping. X wraths should be sent out, however, X wraths + the shipping errors are what will be sent out. This drowns the initial market for them. So WotC will just print more to cover the error, right? Well, that may not be the case. Instead, you could see people getting leftover Hippies from the previous MPR year or things like the Lotus Bloom I mentioned earlier. That may not happen till the last mailing if they decline to print more. Who knows. Either way, it's disheartening to know that several other people are receiving many times more than what they should for lesser participation in sanctioned events. I can't complain as much about receiving three and them being free and all, but it devalues - to me - the reward and accomplishment factor involved for receiving them.:-/
received my letter today. it was opened and empty. i got a really nice letter and a new plastic rewards card. no magic cards whatsover. What the ****. i hate the post office. anyone know how to contact the rewards program.
I got lucky too with mine, though it came REALLY late considering I LIVE in washington. Anyhow I only played in about 30 events since I signed up for the program and got-
I got one wrath, and I'm perfectly happy (I wasn't even supposed to get one)
Although honestly this is screwed up enough it sounds like things going haywire in packing orders. Same thing happened to me ages ago with the guru promos, I got the last three lands instead of the first two (island/plains I think)

Yup, the first 20 event promo you get is the plastic DCI card. I was pretty upset when that's what I got instead of the Hippie on the first mailing last year, but that's appearantly what you sign up for with MPR.
Still haven't recieved my mailings, but my roomate did. I should have mine by Monday/Tuesday since he recieved his a few days before me last mailing as well.

I also live in England and ended up with 5 Wraths - two in the usual individual wrappers and three mixed in with the six packs of two textless cards I got.
Seems that there's been some sort of mix-up; although I don't object to the extra cards, I haven't done anything to deserve them and it seems unfair to pass these extra things out more or less at random.

I am from Slovenia and i got my mailing yesterday. I should have got 2 packs of textless cards (for 10 tournaments), but i got only one, and there were a condemn and a fireball inside.
However I am not dissapointed, cos it's my first mailing...
Don't think so, you should receive the plastic card AND cards in your first mailing.At least that's what happened to everyone i know.
And they sent out a new plastic card with this mailing as well(at least to me and some people i know).
Well, that sucks for me. All I got my first mailing was the plastic card. Meh, I go a bit nuts around MPR mailings and collect sets of the textless cards, so much better than random foils (but this *** is freaking awesome).
Still waiting for my mailings...

I still havn't recieved my shipment yet, but I am anxious about it and I am checking the mail everyday. Hopefully I'll get more than the alotted ***s =)
I've heard rumors that lots of people in Russia have received up to 20 ***'s in their mailings, an obvious mistake if this is true. Has anyone heard that?
Dunno about that rumor, but I rec'd my mailing today and got:
1 Condemn
1 Putrefy
and a new DCI card.
Damnit.
A local that plays lots of tournaments got only a Condemn & a Mortify, I think, so maybe there weren't ***s left for some people?.
Me, the Rewards usually don't arrive in my area (I think the mailman is misplacing or stealing them, it's only in my neighbourhood, and there are 5+ MTG players here who aren't receiving them )
So this is happening all over the world? Okay. I'd heard that it was only the European branch that messed up.
I'm in the middle of the US, and I got a textless spell pack with a Zombify and a *** in it. This problem may have been more prevalent earlier in the run, especially since they would've had to mail the cards to Russia a week or two earlier than they do to the rest of the world to ensure they arrive at roughly the same time as they do here.
