But if Konami wouldn't have made the game appealing with game breaking cards and introducing new mechanics, we wouldn't have bought them in the first place.

Let's see if we're any good at analyzing and see how near to the actual September 1st banlist we get. Voting closes Aug. 18th.
It's essentially a giant social experiment.

So if I had a penny for every card sold, I'd never have to work a day in my life. Cool.

One Word...
DAMN. Way to go, KDE!!! Now what I want to know:
Are they counting the cards sold under UDE as well, or just the ones since KDE took over?

Konami was still selling cards with UDE. UDE was merely a distributor in North America and in the EU.

Know what's really amazing.. this isn't even counting secondary market...
Imagine how much the amount would be if you count all the transactions between people.
