It's my birthday yesterday! Any trivia on my favorite card, Vampire Nocturnus?

Vampire Nocturnus was a top-down design with the flavor that it empowers other vampires but only at night. Happy Birthday!

White Race Selection

You say white's iconic race isn't Cat/Fox/Kithkin/Loxodon because they weren't well received. But are you sure they weren't well received because you didn't make them splashy enough? The very first thing you did when you "mainstreamed" vampires in black was to give them cards like Vampire Nocturnus, Vampire Nighthawk, Bloodghast, etc. I don't see cards of that caliber in any of the white races above, and then you wonder why people weren't clamoring for them? Pardon my french, but duh!

We also secretly masterminded the Twilight phenomenon. : )

Helvault Premiums Issue

First, I agree with not having a Mythic rare as a prerelease promo. Vampire Nocturnus should have taught the world why not to do that. People should not attend events for free money cards alone. However, isn't that exactly what you have done with the premium Helvaults? Further, by only giving the premiums to Advanced stores you have potentially done harm to future event business that Core stores might get. Also, this says that small Magic play groups get ignored for larger play groups. Uncool.

The quantities given away through the premium helvaults was very low. Remember that out of 6,000 locations running a helvault event, only 30 got the premium helvault.
