  • So… Doctor Who Just Regenerated Into Rose Tyler?

    According to writer Robert Shearman, the 15th Doctor’s regeneration into Billie Piper has basically put a full stop on the entire Doctor Who story. That’s a wild way to end things if he’s right. After all these years, do you think this is a fitting way to close the loop or does it feel more like the show’s run out of ideas?

‘Magic: The Gathering’ Says Less Than 10% Of Players “Strongly Dislike” Recent Rise In ‘Universes Beyond’

Online polls are notoriously unreliable. I've seen too many brigaded using bot networks for both top and bottom marks. Eliminate those and look at 2 up to whatever's below the top for the real story. Plus we don't even see the poll in question, just a response poll.

As for Rosewater, he needs to be very careful about saying all this. If it really is just scalpers buoying the hobby because they're reselling unopened packs and boxed sets, the bottom of the market will fall out once they stop. I've been hearing stories about them losing it over people playing Pokemon TCG because they open the goods to do so, leaving nothing of value for the scalpers to buy back and resell at inflated prices.
