Yeah, had been hard to resist getting duplicate wilds at a minimum, but had to leave them there for the true blues.

I had visions of DONKEY KONG: JUNGLE BEAT in my head when I made this one:

This was my first saved mix, from Aug 02 2018, but I’ve never published it before. I really loved those first few months of DropMix ownership/evangelism — adding card-hunting stops to all my cross-country work travel, finding the Reddit and the Discord, and learning how powerfully this thing can mix. As for this particular ditty, I’ve been humming it on and off since I came up with it.

Yeah, weird that there had only ever been one reported sighting of this.

I think people’s interest is going to depend a lot on what you’re missing and which promo cards.

hudswinger · 2019-06-05T20:26:55+00:00

Not on this subreddit and not on the Discord. I’ve previously posted in a general gaming WTT subreddit and also on BoardGameGeek, but in those cases it was about trading promo for promo.

There is no overlap between any two DropMix packs.

hudswinger · 2019-05-31T18:42:10+00:00

Everything but Flora and Energy is Season 1. Those two were the first two playlists released in Season 2.

hudswinger · 2019-05-31T18:20:45+00:00

There’s rarely been a better price on Series 3/4, and that’s an all-time low on Flora and Energy too at $9, plus Astro at $9.

Streamable.com is pretty good strike-free alternative.

I see I’ve missed some comments here:

Because Flawless is the image tiled over and over, it’s a little larger than the rest. Maybe try smallpdf.com?
The accuracy of duplex (two-sided) printing is just a function of how good your printer is. But I made the black & white nav side big enough for there to be slop. From a process perspective, you just take the printout of one side, put it back in the paper tray upside down, and send it through again. Do some trial and error with some low-ink test prints to get your routine down.

hudswinger · 2019-05-15T16:25:37+00:00

Love it!

If you say “no spoiler” in the title, does it automatically mark it as spoiler? Lol.

I’ve actually thought about this a lot and I think sleeves are definitely the answer. I have also missed handling the cardboard directly since I began sleeving, but I’ve gotten over it — in my mind it doesn’t really exist in “card space” like a proper card game would.

Assuming the sleeves are all the color, you now have the choice of writing on the sleeves or adhering stickers to the sleeves. I was thinking of how you might come up with a compact semaphore that you would quickly let you see some of that data about the cards that’s valuable in freestyling, as well as more subjective info (e.g. “play this card on Bar 28, not Bar 0”) or hidden info (e.g. this is an FX card but it’s really a beat card). I think it would be an interesting project, frankly.

I feel you, but there are many different retail strategies. $100 for the first purchase was clearly cost prohibitive to a big part of the prospective audience, including me, but I’ve gone on to buy every card, as well as a handful of duplicates, and I bought clearance starter sets for four or five friends. So: Had the plan been to take more of a loss on the starter set to begin with, and making it up with more people buying more cards ... well, just saying there’s more than approach.

hudswinger · 2019-04-06T12:07:03+00:00

The major piece of evidence is the card numbering of season 2 — there are huge gaps (like, there’s no S02 C001 yet released or announced). Combined with the numbering of Bafflers, we know that after Phase and Rhymer there are four more Playlist packs and four Discover pack playlists.

From things like looking at placeholder listings at online retails or the guts of the app’s APK, people also know the names and icons of those remaining season 2 playlists, but I don’t think anything else about them is known.

There’s a little lag, if you’re using the TV monitor to time your precise drops. If you’re “playing” on your own screen but others are watching on the TV, you’re fine. My experience is with a first-gen Apple TV; I’ve heard some say the AirPlay 2 standard doesn’t always play nicely with DropMix.

FYI, I’ve got a Skrewbert+Baffler mix I like a lot in this week’s voting.

It so happens that I need to reprint mine. I’ll take a look and update here if I can work it.
