I cannot comprehend how people even begin to whine about KDE and all in Pojo.
People here in my country had it tough. Aside from the zero support Konami is giving us, cards are scare. Yes, we do play the OCG, and some of you guys will say "but the OCG is cheap!!" Well it is, to some extent, but you also have to imagine the income of people here. We don't get paid a minimum $7.25 per hour on work, people literally live off in $5 a day. Packs and Structure decks are sold double the SRP does not help either.
People complain about tournament prizes. Well yeah, prizes are terrible, but its better than here. The tournament scene does not even exist, barring locally unsactioned ones held by the community. Hey, at least everyone over here is having fun. Want to play for profit? Go head over to Poker.
Then people on Pojo move on to ranting how sets are crap. I would tell you that people here aren't running all LS or Blackwings. People always run rogue decks most of the time, due to the fact that card prices, despite OCG, are so expensive. Imagine one GS01 Brionac equivalent to 1/5 of your month's salary (calculated roughly). Besides, your rants are falling on wrong ears. Those rants should be sent over to the OCG R&D, and not the TCG (unless you're complaining about TCG exclusives)
If you read up to this point, you might say "hey, we don't care about unheard countries like yours." But that is the point of this whole premise-if you think you guys have it tough, then your sissy complains and rants are nothing compared to what we're going through right now.
I cannot even afford to buy two Allure of Darkness that I need to complete my BF deck. Those things cost $25 a pop over at ideal808. Oh wait, OCG cards are cheaper, right?

more or less than same deal here. The cards are expensive and a booster pack is equivalent to a not-so-bad meal in price, a deck would cost as much as how mush I spend for food and transport in a week(well, maybe thats because I live with my parents). The prices of popular singles are high,Konami sponsored next to no tourneys apart from big ones. But I think most of the players in my country don't buy the cards cause they don't feel it worth, not really can't afford it.
