I’m a former Decipher Volunteer / Rider of Rohan. I haven’t been involved in the community much since I left in 2004, but as I started to get back into it recently I was concerned with how decipher has all but abandonded it’s own website.
Two links I found if nobody’s seen them:
http://www.watersidecapital.com/Waterside-bets-on-cards.html
http://www.watersidecapital.com/Waterside-Capital-invests-in-Norfolk-game-card-company.htm
Quote: the company has battled a downturn in the game card industry, an alleged embezzlement that cost the company millions of dollars, layoffs and scores of lawsuits
Does anyone have more info on this? I’ve noticed a few former Decipher employees hawking large amounts of product on ebay lately (some of which I’ve purchased) but wasn’t sure if that was related to problems with Decipher or not. |

Here’s a link to another thread with what’s been mentioned so far here. A couple opinions (AKA, NB advocating a narnia TCG) were rehashed on the thread about the recent developments re eventual pair of movies of The Hobbit:

That’s all I know about it. |
Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true. |

I’m mostly intrigued with what the internal embezzelment was all about.
I made a reply to the link you posted, thanks!
Also, is Jackson now confirmed to direct the two Hobbit Films? |

Not to direct, as far as I know, but he is producing them. |

Welcome to CobraCards! You’ll find few more devoted LOTR TCG fans than you’ll find here.
I hope Jackson ends up directing too...no one’s ruled that out. But as Drake said, just producing...for now. |
