awesome!

jameshilton on Nov 12, 2007

Nice, but is it worthy of diamond status!?

rajr19 on Nov 12, 2007

was ahs?

MrDee on Nov 12, 2007

ARRR ARRR ARRR ARRR yes.
Me hearty.

I realize that it is based on the game the Chefs will be releasing, however I have to agree with JamesHilton..it does not seem to deserve a diamond rating. But I want it anyway!

jameshilton on Nov 12, 2007

AHS has a theme and more icons than PackRat.
The Chefs must be working late today! it was released outside the 9 to 5 day!

jmnovak on Nov 12, 2007

Chefs are in Texas, right? So it's still in the 9-5 time... just a few minutes short of 5 in TX as I write this.
Re AHS, I've never been totally convinced of its intrinsic diamondness, but in the end, it depends on how much work the Chefs put into it... That Yellow Submarine in PackRat, for instance, looks like it took a lot of work...

jmnovak on Nov 12, 2007

... I should add, high time for another diamond set! One step closer to the three-diamond badge!

Winnopeg on Nov 12, 2007

The set is tagged with iconmaster and etherbrian (which makes sense, it looks like two people made the icons), yet
the set is officially authored by sco. Odd.

dyar on Nov 12, 2007

Interesting. There is no Family for Packrat and both etherbrian and iconmaster are listed in the Tags (see Winnopeg's comment).

jmnovak on Nov 12, 2007

@Winnopeg: I was wondering about the styles myself (wondering if it belonged to a family, there's no family tag); but when you think about it, the game must have a variety of styles, which is itself a style. Maybe there will be other PackRat sets, making a PackRat family...

Winnopeg on Nov 12, 2007

I doubt it's part of a family; it'll most likely be counted as any other sponsored set.

dyar on Nov 12, 2007

You would think that for a Diamond we would at least get that little fat rat that is on the Facebook site.

JBVisions on Nov 12, 2007

Whoo Hoo Dyar, good call!

jameshilton on Nov 12, 2007

He is cool, must be in the next diamond set!
I think this is the start of a PackRat series.

KatieK on Nov 12, 2007

Very cool! More diamond is more good! Anybody notice the tagline? Remember the flash-in-the-pan Wingman?

laulena on Nov 12, 2007

I love the fat little rat! I wish they had him in this set.... hopefully he will be in a future set.

dustybunny on Nov 12, 2007

I am very curious as to if this icon set has larger sizes or not since Josh hinted that Rat Pack was to include larger icons.

dyar on Nov 12, 2007

Go to the Pack Rat Site and next to Photos click See All and you will see the larger sizes in the game.

KAHRules on Nov 12, 2007

jmnovak has a point. There seems to be a lot of detail in the icons. I apologize for initially slamming the Diamond status.

dustybunny on Nov 12, 2007

I mean this set specifically.

elnitido52 on Nov 12, 2007

Here they arrr...

elnitido52 on Nov 12, 2007

The icon that represents the set is the yellow submarine which, by the way, belongs to High Seas (The Pirates) in the PackRat game...so it is another Pirate Diamond set...arrr...

rossanyl on Dec 02, 2007

I don't know what to do!
Do I keep 10 tokens in case it is release or not? what do you do?

JBVisions on Dec 02, 2007

Mmmmmm dilemma.

jameshilton on Dec 02, 2007

@rossanyl: you should get it free anyway being a VIP

rossanyl on Dec 02, 2007

@jameshilton: well, i'm not sure anymore if all vip will get it. Iconmaster talked about it a little in this thread

jameshilton on Dec 02, 2007

There is nothing there that would make me think any different.

rossanyl on Dec 02, 2007

okey then, I will spend them (wisely :) )
