TOPIC: True Dungeon Timeline: 2003 Info

I have a black with silver silk screening bag. It's got the TD logo and a spider in the web, so that was what, the last year of the woodies?

Yep, that is from 2006, it's the last year of wooden tokens, and the last year that the regular token bags had the True Dungeon logo on them.

Was it just called "Smoak"? I may be wrong, but I thought there was more to it. Like "Where there's Smoak" or something like that.

I'm not sure, I think you're correct that it is something like that. It just says "Smoak" on my XP page. Who still has their GENCON info for that year?

OK, I found a site that has the correct name (With Smoak Comes Fire), and some other cool info that I hadn't incorporated yet. It may take me a few days but I'll get it updated. I'm keeping the master file on my computer in Microsoft Word and cut/pasting it onto the forum

Just skimmed things so far, but this is awesome. Thanks for taking the time to do this. I did notice there are several copy paste errors in 2014 where it references Lycan's Afoot and Golembane.

Actually have the first token guide still, 2005 and got the TD token binder too.

Thanks, I fixed them on the master!

Great suggestions! It may be a week or more before I can update everything, but I will

I'm pretty sure you mean "embossed" where you say "embroidered."

I've got bags from that era, and some have the leatherette finish pressed down into a TD logo, which was (originally) highlighted in metallic gold. The gold flaked off very fast, though, to the point that most bags had barely a hint of it left, by the time the event was done.

Does anyone have any info on which bags were from which year? I think Gary and I were the only two that were collecting the old bags

I have kept my old bags, but I was never really "collecting" them, so I didn't do anything to keep them mint, or record when&where I got them.

I think you're accurate about the types, tho. I remember a mix of burgundy, silver, and black bags from the first year I bought tokens (probably all with the embossed logo) and I remember the logo staying on the black bags better the next year, when it was printed directly on. Can't remember Burgundy bags with the printed-on logo, though.

I'm fairly certain the first Rod of Seven Parts Segment debuted in 2008, not 2007. The Token Yearbook indicates it was 2008 and it's got the grapes icon used for the 2008 tokens.
