O no you are on to me<Insert snarky Internet comment that Gunnar works for Modiano here>
It was not pointed at someone here it was just a joke pointing to a random pitchfork store if one existsI mostly just hate the guys who require a pitchfork prodding before agreeing to do the right thing.
Best solution for bad pokerfacePitchforks aside - anyone who uses fog machines at their poker games is A-OK in my book... (y) :thumbsup:

This is somewhat concerning... If they really don't see the problem, then how do we know they are able to fix it with a reprint?
Also - I am temporarily halting donations and removing my PP info from OP until we get official word from @desjgn that the Modiano reprint is happening. If that does happen, we then need to discuss what happens with the funds collected thus far (assuming the Modiano reprint is successful).
PS: Thank you, @Gunnar, for contacting Modiano!
Sounds like Gunnar reached somebody in the blow-job smooth-over department, as opposed to the reps from the here-take-it-in-the-ass-and-like-it division that everybody else contacted.
Ok, this is news to me because they haven’t contacted me at all concerning a reprint. I contacted them again after the 6th to tell me what they were going to do about and have received no communication whatsoever.
I tend to believe the "shit" pitchforks might have had a lot more to do with it than they are getting credit for. Contrary to the saying, sometimes you do get more results with the 2x4 than the honey.

Thank you Gunner for making the effort. Let me go through the response at lunch and provide another response—i haven’t been online much and am seeing this now.
but it still doesn't excuse them from ignoring customers
That's the look I go for at my poker nights with the cigars!! Fog machine probably smells better though......Pitchforks aside - anyone who uses fog machines at their poker games is A-OK in my book... (y) :thumbsup:

I called them directly as owner of Pokerstore.is and a board member in PSI ( Poker organisation Iceland ) that is part of sport accord
I got the information that Modiano will reprint and that was always the plan. They don't understand all the furious emails that are coming. They are aware of the problem and recognise it. There was some misunderstanding since the mistake was not in the samples the had but when the received more decks they could see.
It seems that there is some misunderstanding going on and Modiano will fix this so we can stop flaming them.
As the saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
...but I think it is lousy to send them shit when we only know one side of the story.
Now they're complaining that they got "shit" emails?? If they sent out a few replies to us at the very least saying "we're looking into the matter" I think that would have done some decent damage control.
Let's say I buy a new Ford and take it back to the dealership with a problem, and they say "yeah, we've been seeing that a lot, and we think they should do a recall. Please tell Ford about the problem too." And I reach out to Ford about it, I'd at least expect them to respond...Weeeelllll,
They are in kind of an odd position when they’re getting emails from desjgn’s customers. Because those folks aren’t actually their customers. Desjgn is their customer and we are desjgn’s customers. The fact that most of us are also modiano’s customers (in other, unrelated transactions) complicated things a bit, of course.
Like most analogies, that one is imperfect.Let's say I buy a new Ford and take it back to the dealership with a problem, and they say "yeah, we've been seeing that a lot, and we think they should do a recall.

My apologies for this drama people as this really could have been avoided.
No apology required (from you). Just let me know where to send the two fifths of liquid conversation volume regulator. Bourbon okay?Ok, I have been all sorts of frustrated throughout my work day concerning this matter...I need to get some answers and prepare myself for a very loud phone conversation. Let me get clarification in writing and go from there, providing an update as soon as I can get one. Really frustrated at the lack of communication.
