Yes, I should include that sad piece of news in the OP. Getting to that.
I've quite the strong opinion about the harsh opposition coming from the Curators.
The forum is a place of creativity and communication. It's where great minds can come up with great concepts. If the Crucible system was made, it was to see what the community liked, in an organized fashion. Thus far it has done this excellently.
Pseudoquanta, as we can all see, present no new type of element, do not have new card backgrounds, and fit in perfectly with the Crucible system. If you put them on an Other card, it goes against Other cards, if it makes it to challenge Permanents, it goes against Permanents. We're not making cards that are humorous, and in no way consider pseudoquanta a joke, or out of the realm of acceptable for the Crucible.
Shutting the doors on pseudoquanta is shutting the doors on opportunity, growth and creativity, an act I had not expected from the highly qualified Curators. Alas, as the ruling of bureaucracy remains in its place all we can do is grumble.
Grumble away my fellow lightbulbs, we have been shut off. ^_^
