The Asylum Keepers had tremendous pack luck early and broke quickly, moving into silver in 2023...and there they still sit. They've won between 60 and 70-something games each season. They even enlisted JoBu a couple of weeks ago. The net result has been underwhelming. As a silver tourney team, they've done okay, generally grabbing a pack or two a day, rarely getting completely shut out. They've also done well in the 750 PP tourney. Pack pulls have been pretty poor, though the 88 Paul Derringer has been a nice bullpen add. The net result of it all is that they've been able to accumulate points very slowly and make just a couple of slight upgrades over the course of the six weeks of waving to the other OL teams passing through.


That all seemed to change the other day when JoBu came through in a big way. I don't usually enter the daily tourneys if I'm gonna be around and can check in every couple of hours. However, because I knew I'd be unable to, I entered the daily silver pack tourney...and won 15 packs. Wow! They added two more overnight, so this morning I ripped them, feeling the JoBu turn of luck had come.


Not so fast. The 102 card bonanza contained two live gold, which might sell for 1300 each, three live silver, which I'll keep for tourney teams, 31 live bronze to sell, 7 OL bronze, which I'll keep, 14 OL iron, which I'll keep. Sorry to sound so whiney in the midst of such luck, but just one good pack could've have turned it around, and fate did appear to be smiling on Asylum. Ah well, I have accumulated close to 20,000 PP, so some improvement should be possible. Thanks for listening.


By the way, what do you folks do with your excess OL (that's what I call historical cards) cards? I've been saving mine. Not sure why. Live cards, except for tourney cards, are gone as I get 'em. Probably should cull some of the tourney cards, as well. Just haven't had time to go through my tourney rosters lately. Hopefully later today.


Good luck to all in 2029.
