First of all, Ralph, if you want me to delete this, or if you dont like it, PM me and ill delete it.

So, after ~4 months of building, i am finally done with 'my' misprint site.

Its basically squt's site, with a (IMHO) easir navigation, with added information from other sources found on the 'net, or in person, + my (insane?) list of portuguese misprints (120+, makes me wonder how many exist in, say, chinese... :P).

So, finally:

http://irpg.galacnode.com/mtg/

I'm working on getting pictures, but that will take a while. So i do not flood the boards, i'll 'up' this topic when i discover something REALLY wierd (see Portuguese Braids...)

Oh, and a big thanks to squt, for the absurd data he accumulated about misprints.

Quick suggestion (maybe, maybe not) - that there should be some mention on there how some items, such as the mana symbols you are using, are copywrited WOTC.

Great work!  [smiley=ok.gif] [smiley=ok.gif] [smiley=ok.gif] I love the very clearly arranged layout.

I noticed you are missing some german misprints. Do you need scans and information?

Hi Mr.C.
Very Nice Website  :)

I would like to check about 2 Misprints with  you:
Wayward Soul.Exodus.US.
Its missing the black ink layer behind the artist name.
I have 5 of them,and none are missing the black ink  ???

The other is about:
Skulking Ghost.Mirage.US.
Quoted from Squt's site: "It seems to have two different print runs with slightly different cropping. On one
printing, the picture is darker and richer, and centered about 1/8th of an inch lower than the other
printing. The easiest way to tell is by looking at Robert Bliss' Autograph in the upper right corner.
The more uncommon of the two of these is the one that came out of the 'multiverse' pack, a box that came
with one preview Visions booster. Some of the cards in this preview pack have different wording, different
spacing of text on them, etc...but the Skulking Ghost with the differently -cropped picture has the biggest
difference "

I have sent E-Mail to Squt long time ago about this one,
but as mentioned the Multiverse Pack contains a Visions
Booster and Skulking Ghost is a Mirage card  ;)
I would like Squt to confirmed that he has found a Mirage Card in a Visions Booster,which I doubt.
I have these 2 Cards,and this is quiet a Unique Misprint.

Absolutely BRILLIANT job, congrats :)

I believe you're missing 2 Summer Magic misprints with Serendib Efreet (wrong artist if I recall correctly) and Hurricane (wrong background color  :o).

Also, feel free to use that other Topic in the Archive listing those Italian cases with different cards having the same name. I recall counting four of those cases.

Very interesting site. I think however there is still a lot of work to do.

I have checked on a couple of misprints I am aware of and they are not there:
- German Revised WB Tundra: Missing Artist name
- French Foil and non Foil Green Myojin : Has a reference to the Black Myojin in the second paragraph of the text
- French foil and non foil Kokusho: Named Koshuko in the text (lol)
- I think the main issue with the French Eight Rukh Egg is that the Token Rukh does not fly!!

There also a french unco in a recent set which has a word left untranslated in the text (there's a 'for' somewhere).

Also a question : What do you mean by:
"Balance:
It had its name left untranslate!"

'Balance' in English translates as 'Balance' in French (same word), so I'm not sure it's a misprint :)

Best regards,
Eric.

PS: For the purpose of Squt's Collection, I'm currently asking for the French Misprints in BoK. I'll let you know if any are identified.

EDIT: You are also missing the Drudge Skeleswamp as well :)

8th Edition:

Rukh Egg:
It doesn't say that the Rukh token is red.
are you sure about this one ?
I don't know if teh card says that or not that the token is red, but I know that the card doesn't say that the token has flying.

If you want more french misprints, then just tell me
There are millions of them since the translator has been changed just before Onslaught.

You have cards with 2 names, like annul, the Onslaught fetchlands are misprinted as well as the tainted lands from torment. There's a card that destroys a enchanted creature instead of an enchant : creature...
