It’s 100k packs and there is a chance to get moments with 75 mint. That’s pretty good for $49 compared to Top Shot and All Day

Apparently there was just a stress test drop that I missed.

Spend your money on what you want to and other people will spend on what they want. Packs will sell out so the less competition the better.

I have enough dapper funds to buy four packs so if I can get that many, I will. It’s free money from the A’Ja moment they have to new users a few months ago so if UFC goes to zero then so be it.

I've routinely pulled money out. The $200 is stuck because "my wife" created an account for the A'Ja moment and I haven't had a chance to verify her identity.

Invite-only stress test today for 2,500 packs. Same moments as will be in the pack release tomorrow. Email says 0.38% chance of hitting a Champion Tier (rare) card.

Updates: Was supposed to start at 1100 PT, then pushed back to 1130, now pushed to 1200.

Queue doesn't make it look like you're actually in the queue, but you are. Got 1962 in line when it started, so I am in line for 1 pack. Rules in the email said once you complete purchase you could come back and try to get another pack, but not likely for anyone to get 2 packs today. Nice thing is, at least the main drop is tomorrow and I don't think they'll sell out at $50/pack.

Got my pack, haven't opened it yet. Jumped back into the queue and there were only 2100 more people in there when only 500 or so packs were still available. Not sure how many were in the queue when it started.

Opened it and got Barnett /23k, Jingliang /23k, and Lawler /23k. If I buy a pack tomorrow, I'll leave it closed. Interestingly, the pack was labeled SERIES 0, and the moments are as well. The Barnett is his first UFC win according to the announcer, and was done with a roundhouse kick to the head.

Ended up getting selected for a stress test today for the UFC packs.

99% chance of getting 3 24k moments. 1% chance for /75 moments. 2500 packs. Lot of the fighters were trash too. Got 2 Gane & 1 Pimbett.

Here is the google doc:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...=0&single=true

Official drop is tomorrow with 100k packs. Same odds. Think i'll pass from now on at $50 a pack. Need those base pack $9-$15 prices.

I do like the fact you have a shot at a /75 with no collector scores introduced, but the risk is too high for me.

I get paying $49 for NFL, but $50 for UFC /23,000? Think they are banking on the fact that people are rolling in their TS gains into this.

Do we know when the Marketplace will open? I'm not sure how many packs will sell if there's no place to sell through. May be worth HODLing a pack or two of Series 0 until they allow selling packs on the site, as well.

That is what I'm doing with my NFL all day packs. I'm usually unable to hold things sealed, but if there is no marketplace I don't feel tempted to open them.

You still can’t sell packs in Top Shot marketplace so I’m not expecting that anytime soon. But since Strike is open beta I hope they open the market for moments soon. I’m sure it’s all the same as Topshot on the back end so that shouldn’t be difficult. I think they made the right move by having Strike open to everyone immediately and dropping enough packs that anyone that wants one can get one but in doing that they also need the market open immediately so they don’t lose interest

21k, so these 100k may actually sell out today.
