Were these even distributed during the summer? I'm all about the Alternate 4th.

This is a very stupid vote to be perfectly honest with you 
I'll still vote though, seeing as this has a 1 in 1000 chance of actually making a change 
A, for alternate, the only name on the list that could be justified to use.

In order not to confuse them with "Summer" magic, why not call them "Some More 4th"?
Actually, I like Alternate 4th.
But honestly, no matter what we decide - people outside this forum will call them whatever they want. Especially if their trying to inflate the price of an auction they're selling.

Fourth Junior?
Pre-Fourth?
Phat Fourth?
Spring Fourth (Fall Behind)?
There are so many possibilities that don't require summer in them.

We'll just have to corect them when we hear it and send Pm to the people selling on ebay telling them they are using bad selling practice's now if we could get WOC to acknowledge the cards in thier site and use the name Alt 4th we'll be in buisness anyone have any contacts there. This will drive up the price though

I vote for anything that doesnt have the word summer in it.
...actually, if we call it summer, it might confuse people and prices for real summer might drop.... 
seriously though, i like A.) Alternate Fourth

Don't use any of the regular incandescent light bulbs that have a black light coating on them. While they make some whites shine, they don't give much light and don't cover enough of the UV spectrum that darkens the alt-4th coating much. You want to get a flourescent black light bulb.

The "correct title" for these cards are in your thread heading- Alt. 4th. People on ebay type in summer just to get more hits!
Please spell my hometown correctly- CINCINNATI. Please.
