I found the solve page quite disapointing i took some fun away of solving the card. It is a very nice card though i like the way you have to think to solve it.

Yeah, I was wondering how they were going to handle this one!

Is it just me, or does the 'X' Scrabble letter seem to be in the same design as the X in unix X11?

I got mine in a pack too. I think it's pretty much that those who got the cards at E3 were just treated to an early release, instead of a "limited edition" card.

The E3 card was a prototype, right?

Hey, I got this card in a normal pack, not at E3, in fact I wasnt even at E3!!?? Strange.

Well spotted, but it has been noticed already. In fact 13 of the 67 cards issued so far have playing card symbols on them, and they also have parts of large grey letters in the corners.

Also, I don't know if anyone noticed, but there's a yellow stickie note on the bottom left thats a bit cropped off, but likely says "To Michael at Mindcandy" (bold is my spec).

One last note of possible relevance:

At the top left is a Scrabble tile for "X" (8 points). On card #184, "Love Letters," someone speculated that the "X" at the top of the letter flap was a scrabble tiule, and it (apparently) led to the solve for that card.

Could Sente and Tippy be having some kind of secret Scrabble affair?

[edit] just for the sake of completeness, just behind the pen is what looks like " T | h | i | s " Basically, "This" segmented, like it was part of a solve.

I can totally see Sente's desk strewn with random puzzles and answers.

That's the bottom-right corner. Plus, it has a scratched-off serial number that is partly visible: 6278457622458[something]. There is one digit partially visible that looks like an 8 or 9. There may be more digits out of the picture.
