clarification- 2000 & 7th Ed Starter box cards

Post by merfolkguy » Sun Feb 13, 2005 1:09 pm

I'm not sure if this is clear from the library so please clarify for me--maybe I am missing it and it is explained here.  If so, my apologies.

here's the question:

Okay, so if I generate a list of a card I'm interested in (merfolk of the pearl trident in my case) with the Mtg Checklist Generator ,
I get Starter 2000 cards in 6 languages and 7th Ed Starters in 9 languages...
68. Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
69. French Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
70. Spanish Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
71. Italian Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
72. German Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
73. Japanese Starter 2000 (DiTerlizzi)
74. Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
75. French Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
76. Spanish Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
77. Italian Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
78. German Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
79. Portuguese Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
80. Japanese Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
81. Chinese-T Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
82. Chinese-S Seventh Edition Starter (Ray Lago)
...which I thought implied these were unique cards, however the library has this to say about starter 2000--
The Starter 2000 box set contains:
74 cards (54 6th Edition cards + 20 unique cards)
And yes, I see we have a list of those 20 unique cards in the library.  The other 54 cards, like the MotPT however are 6th edition right?  My point -- can you tell a Starter 2000 card from its counterpart in 6th edition?  Is it the same card missing the 'VI' set symbol perhaps?  I know Starter 1999 cards had the star symbol but I don't have a Starter 2000 card and I'm trying to figure out if I need one---um, or 6 of them actually.

Same question about the 7th edition starter cards -- are they distinguishable from normal 7th edition cards?

Thanks

They are indistinguishable. The ones that are listed on the rarities page are the only ones that are different from a regular edition. My checklist generator just isn't smart enough yet to know which is which.
