A poster had a few questions, chsfx answered a few.

How many people are currently working for Eredan iTCG?

Quite a few.

How are the illustrators for d'Erdan ITCG recruited?

By viewing their previous work, either through their portfollio/blog or through recruitment ads on specialized sites.

How did you get the idea to create Erdan ITCG ?

We love trading card games! We simply decided to do our own.

Are new rooms planned (to level quicker ect..) ?

Cannot comment on that for the moment, sorry.

So what do you do with the money that goes towards Eredan ITCG?

The money goes towards the employee' salaries and pays the company's bills, it is also invested into new projects and improvements towards Eredan iTCG.

Some people sell their online accounts, is it authorized? If not, are you taking the right steps to counter this?

No, it is absolutely forbidden. Sold accounts or accounts on sale are banned instantly.

How do you become a mod?

By being disciplined, providing constructive responses on the forum, being fair play with others and showing that you are a conscientious person in whom we can trust.

Besides monitoring the forum, what are the other tasks of the moderators?

Provide information to the members of staff (bugs, behavior problems...)

Is there a hierarchy in place between moderators or are they all on an equal footing?

They are all equal.

So what's the next event for September?

It's a Surprise!

Are we ever going to get an in-game chat for Eredan?

No comment for now.

Any projects regarding private sales?

No comment for now.

Several posts concerning the legendary pack

-You can sell the card you have just transformed with the special foil card on the marketplace, if the card in question was sellable beforehand of course.

-There are no same copies in this pack except for the XP cards of course.

-Antimagic glyph cannot be obtained in this pack

We have discovered a bug that stopped players from opening legendary packs, we had to force two mantenances to correct this bug, players were disconnected unfortunately.
Sometimes in these cases, the influx of people trying to reconnect saturates our servers, hence the message you received.
Our sincere apologies.

Update on the Legendary pack

We understand that the Legendary pack can be subject to debate concerning the price but we did create it with the intention of making it attractive, this is the case if you consider a few things:

- If we exclude the legendary cards; this pack corresponds to 30 - 12 card boosters packs with a special offer ( 17% discount)

- Beyond the price, you could also consider the fact that all cards in the pack are unique (you then have a great variety of cards, this includes 30 rares)
- We also guarantee teh presence of a Legendary card, this isn't something to disregard either. Without revealing too much about the release rate of a legendary card, I can confirm that it is inferior to 1/30.
- All playable cards from the pack are salable, you can make quite a lot of crystals with that.
- You can also "foil" anyone of your cards and then sale it.
- Let me also remind you that under normal circumstances, you have one chance out of ten to obtain an XP Destiny card in a 12 card Booster pack. Here, you will get 4 (instead of 3 if we follow statistics).

Concerning the price, it wasn't possible for us to place this legendary pack at a lower price for two reasons: 
- Legendary cards need to remain rare, it is what we want and we will keep it this way.
- We need to respect players that have invested a lot of money on our game to unlock one or several legendary cards by conventional means, either via the marketplace or boosters.

And finally, obviously, this type of pack is a commercial product and we hope to make it profitable. However, this was due to a high demand from players that wished to obtain cards differently and at a faster pace. Yes, we are responding to our basic need (generate money to support the game) but also providing a a different option for some part of the player base.

Was the timing inappropriate? No. Let's be honest, would there ever have been a time when you would of all liked to see arrive a product like the legendary pack? We think not.

If we base ourselves on the French market, the sales periods in January and July could be adapted for this kind of release, but we all know that at the end of January, people try and recover from the Christmas period and start saving for summer holidays.

We have listened to your feedback concerning the limited timing of the legendary pack, once the offer is closed, we will review the final result and see if it will make a comeback using the current format or another.

Re : The Devtracker

This is a good thread. Are we allowed to post here?

Just curious about some of the artists... Were some of the artwork anime-inspired?

The photo in the thread is the artwork from the card THE REGENT. I guess this is suppose to represent the team of developers

EDIT DANTESAN: OF COURSE!
