They said they'd be down all week for Memorial Day. We're not getting any spoilers this week from the mothership.
Must be nice working there, one full week paid to do nothing.
I *highly* doubt everyone in the company gets a week off- this isn't Europe.
A more likely scenario is that the main person in charge of the website took some extra vacation days,
since MD is a very slow time for most media.
You'd have to remind me which company in Europe lets all of its employees have a week long vacation.
Unless you think Europe is some Magic Christmass Fairyland, I really wonder what you're referring to as it doesn't sound like any company I am familiar with.
Sorry, that was a brain fart on my part-
It's Japan that gives most of the country a week off in May.
I misremembered it as Europe for some reason

Okay, this is really stupid now. I can understand slow rolling spoilers. I can understand a slip up about the release date of the full spoiler. I can even understand not wanting to admit the mistake and just continue wih spoilers as planned. But to have all that happen and then stop the spoilers altogether... that is just stupid and/or mean. Although, it would be nice for once to draft the set on release weekend and not have all the wannabe pros already know all the strategies and synergies and get mad at you for not making your picks as quickly as them.
You realize that there was only ever going to be one week of Conspiracy spoilers, correct?

American companies care so little about their employees' wellbeing that you don't even get paid maternity leave for more than three days, let alone a week off for a holiday.
Ah, carry on then
Perhaps you just want to go and visit us over here?
More than you know- exactly five years ago I was in magnificent Istanbul,
and my honeymoon in Italy and Croatia has been on hold for two years
On topic, if the web department really is gone all week
(maybe that's what they meant by a "schedule change"?)
and we don't get the spoiler until Monday, I'll be very sad.
I did go ahead and buy a box from my favorite LGS for $90 though.
Maybe not knowing all the cards yet has some advantages

Old enough to know better, much too young to care.
Thanks for making us wait a whole extra week, a week filled with no articles of interest at that, with no real explanation as to why beyond "rescheduling".

The set full set will prob come out tomorrow or monday
i don t know... couldn t they just spoil some goodies in twiter or facebook ? i hate have to wait for new spoilers
and those new threads where guy says :
"|Spoilers fromm mythicspoilers that i didn t see here "
and in fact all the cards given are old spoilers that we got weeks ago and that mythic spoilers lists MTGSalvatioon as the font...
IS Driving me CRAZE.
and isn t helping
So, my buddy made a comment at our WNM this evening that I'd love to hear you guys and gals' opinion of:
"Hey, what if we get no more spoilers until the release day, and Wizards comes out and says: 'Hey, the biggest conspiracy is that there is NO CONSPIRACY. But here's the new UNset!'"

I fear I won't have much time to play Magic these days.
I get to watch worlds develop around me.
I get to watch great leaders, terrible oppressors, and trend setters rise and fall.
Limited, Standard, Modern, everything is a different playing field I feel I can observe, but will not actually touch.
I look forward to the stories I will hear.
And more so to the ones I will watch unfold first hand.
Isn't the unknown exciting?
Although there's no other similar product to make a real comparison, I cannot think of any "bombs" kept aside for the whole visual spoiler in the last sets. Well, to be honest I remember only one: Boros Reckoner in Gatecrash, nothing more.
Since there are only 65 new cards and we already know many of them (49 maybe?), and at the same time we've able to know some very high profile reprints, I suspect there won't be much in the unknown half of the set. Maybe some utilities for Commander decks or low-cost beloved Legacy cards (I want Wild Mongrel damn! ), but I'll gladly welcome anything more than that. By the way, I've already ordered a box for 92€...
At this point, it's definitely gotten more about the reprints for me.
There's enough open spaces left in the spoiler that I can still hold hope for some really nice "finally-in-modern-frame" multiplayer staples, like Pestilence and Repercussion.
Especially considering it'll be my last chance to see them not have the just-too-off-puttingly-asymmetrical new M15 frames.

\=That said, I also agree with Jukai on Wizards possibly testing what kind of effect this has, or it may even be deliberate and the effect is known/assumed. Somehow I get the idea there is a (re)printing of even more high profile cards which Wizards does not wish to hype for some reason (most likely reprinting in this case).
So it could be both things combined: a sort of practice run, without it being limited.
But then again, there could be insider trading.
Or maybe there isn't and I am just imagining things

If I were Wizards, this delay on showing the full spoiler would be because there was a secret card in the set, something like super secret tech that only shows up foil or some similar gimmick. Wouldn't that be the ultimate cap on the way Wizards has handled the marketing for this product?
Then again, if it were me, I would have made the card Dack Fayden (and watched the secondary market reel), so maybe you all are better off.

Quote from flamebuster »
I would love to see a Pagan movement claiming "Organized religion is poisoning our youth! Let's ban the Pope!"
Play Fire Emblem? Like pirates? Think Fargus is manly? Join the project today!
My guess? Someone realized they were getting a lot more interest than their usual summer fun products(modern masters aside) and they figured "Why waste the spoiler on Memorial Day Weekend, it's one of the worst weekends of the year in term of audience for any media."
Then someone else says "Yeah, and this is just an oddball set anyway, no prereleases or anything to jack people up about."
So expect the news tomorrow or Monday, no shadyness here.
I do think we will get a little juice (deathrite shaman and others flew below the radar and didn't get special previews)
That said, Rishadan port, Mana Drain etc would have gotten a metric ton of press.
Maybe, just maybe, they had a shakeup with production and needed to reschedule some things around. You know, like they kinda said. Ever think of that?
You take your common sense and your logic and you get out of here right now. This product is called Conspiracy so obviously there is a conspiracy afoot!!! /tinfoil hat

Plot twist: it IS Dack Fayden, even though they spoiled him themselves (will their cruelty ever know bounds?)
That said, I think you may be on to something... maybe...
Ohmigod. Dack Faden stole the Conspiracy spoilers.

and isn t helping
if they can they will do
the set has some realy nice cards and opening 2 or 3 boxes would givve them some desirable singles
opening a exploration\ missdirection \ dack fayden \ other good stuff
would warrant at least the boxes MSRP money if they find a nice foil then its prouft...
and as they can later get more boxes it would be indeed nice for then crack for singles early then later...
