Default Sunset

It’s apropos that I waited until almost the end to acquire a Miller Sunset version for my Kraken Kwest.

The sun is setting on my set.

This gives me 119/121 cards.
223 Kraken Points.

I would like to thank new pal Denny Walsh for this opportunity. A neat guy to deal with as you may already know.

Mr Kraken Kounter, can I get three points please?

Damn Toad, 119/121 is very impressive. Great job picking up the sunset Miller. Such a nice looking card and tough too. Who do you need besides Jackson now?

Hey Andy…Thank you for the encouragement:-)

Wagner (Batting) is gonna be the last Kraken card for me.
I’m not envisioning the Jackson card coming my way.
I’ll be ecstatic with 230 Krakens!
I’ve got a few that could use an upgrade so I’ll be working on this set for a bit longer.

What abacus type set is next? I enjoyed the point system here !
What else ya got , BP?

Welcome aboard Pete, but you do have more than eight Kraken points. Here are the values of the cards you listed:

wagner throwing - 10
cy young boston - 4
miller w/sunset - 3
miller no sunset - 1
keeler pink - 1
a few other highlanders - ?

You have 19 points with what you have specifically identified. Check out those Highlanders...I believe all the rest of the Highlanders besides the two other Keeler cards would be 1 pointers. Let us know the results, and I should be able to eventually get you up on the leader board.

Pete, consider yourself officially enshrined in the Kraken Hall of Fame, dental (bite) wing.

Nice Brian...the Miller sunset card is probably something I would have snagged back in the day, if I had known about! Now it is something I am content to admire at a distance.

You have been Krakened upward on the Kraken Kwest list.
