I updated the first post to focus in on the targeted information. TK pointed out when I first took the helm of this thread that it was the "Upcoming" promo thread and there was a lot of "Gone-by" in it.
Let me know if people prefer the longer list, or if this format is more to your liking.
Additionally, is there anything else that can be done to make this thread more useful?
Feel free to PM me with any of your thoughts (so as not to clutter the thread with maintenance issues).
In addition you can check here to see what is coming up and recently released: The [Compiled] Upcoming Promo Information thread stickied to the top of the Rumor Mill. I try to keep the first post as up-to-date as I can (and if you're checking it out for the first time, I would welcome feedback on how to make it more useful/usable/accessible etc...).
As for the comic, I like the black and white covers with the color logic at the top. So simple, but I have always liked how that style just pops. Oh, and sweet card is sweet.
So I'm not sure who compiled the list of promos on the first page, but it's important to note, I think, that unlike originally planned, there is/will not be a Theros League Soldier token, since said program was discontinued after M14. It should be removed from the list.
That token. It has been fairly mysterious from the beginning. The art exists, as evidenced by the TO materials Hunter posted, but the (abrupt?) cancelling of the program left shades of this thing all over the place. Not sure if the physical objects will see the light of day, but I'm going to leave it in the list for now until we know more.
Is there a way to get rid of the leaving mtgs notice on links? I at least would like an option to turn that off somewhere even if it isn't the default.
In this vein, when the beta becomes prime, all links referencing the old site will die, yes? I ask as the current caretaker of the Upcoming Promos thread in the Rumor Mill. That will take a bit of restructuring.
Other:
The sub forum area in the Rumor Mill is squishing the last two cells (viewing on an iPad if that helps).
The text of my sig is not showing correct font and many others' seem to be cut off.
Log in asks for email address, but really wanted user name.
An alt win based on devotion was my first thought too... But I want to see an alt loss based on the gods smiting your opponent when you reach a set devotion threshold.
ten seems a little low. It is not *that* hard to get a number of mana symbols in the CC of permanents onto the battlefield.
Actually, the way Vahouzn has it suggested would be wicked tough - exactly 50 mana symbols, exactly 10 of each. That's a fair amount of permanents - or ten copies of Fusion Elemental.

There are quite a few Auras that grant tap abilities to the creature they enchant, but the distinction is that the enchantment itself does not tap (just like the aura or equipment on an attacking creature doesn't actually tap with the creature...). The three tappers are Witch's Mist, Second Wind, and Flowstone Embrace.

@ nathones - non-foil I believe.

Yes. Very yes.

And then comes the 2014 Fall set inspired by the works of Joss Whedon and George R. R. Martin...
