I was waiting to trade the last earnings on the market, hoping that the STEEM prices might recover, and it didn't happen. But when I read the news that there were only around 15k alpha packs left, I had to take the plunge. Thankfully the earnings from the previous upfundme posts made up for the low SBD prices and I was able to get the pack. Only a couple hours later, 0 packs left! Wow, that was close...

In the end, I'm still unsure what's inside the starter pack, because the site didn't give me the option to open it, and it looks like the site mixed the cards with the other cards I already had. The Peak monsters explorer isn't showing the cards in my purchase, either. Ah well...

Anyway, I'm finally in the game! Thank you so much for the help once again!
