Sunday Night Special - 2023 - T-Shirts

Once a year, I release a batch of shirts with a slogan that represents the year we all went through.

Due to the weak market, i have reduced the quantity of shirts from 2,000 to 1,500 this year.

I felt a shirt with "GAME PIECES" was by far, the best choice to use. 

I have not mentioned the new shirts in any video, so patrons are the only ones that know these are live.

Shirts are now listed on ebay, first come first serve

Using Patron and youtube data, I can confidently say a LARGE portion of my viewers and supporters have left this year.

There was approx 10-20% turnover in long term patrons converting to new patrons taking those slots.

2023 was a year filled with dissapointment, anger and frustration in the CCG industry.

The failure of many products have left people feeling burned and quitting.

The failure of management to forecast proper print runs at most CCG's has created anger towards myself/LGS's/distributors around the world.

A Lot of people have left and they will ever come back to CCG's.

I remain one of the only people that believe we have some incredible months/years ahead.

I remain one of the only people that believe Magic will recover.

I appriecate all the support and sticking with me through this difficult year.
