The full series will include approximately 40 cards, plus a special "Card #0" (see below), which will be available only to Chicago in 2000 presupporters who vote on Worldcon site selection. The election will be held at LoneStarCon II, the 1997 World Science Fiction Convention.
New presupporters receive the most recent card when they join up. Those who have already joined may pick up the most recent card, free of charge, at any Chicago in 2000 bid party or table. Presupporters may also buy any past card for one dollar - but only one card per convention (except for bonafide residents of continents other than North America, who may purchase up to five past cards per convention).
Any presupporter who collects 20 different cards and votes on site selection for the year 2000 will receive a free conversion to attending membership in the 2000 Worldcon (but only if Chicago wins, of course). The mechanics of conversion will be explained in Progress Report Zero, which will be mailed to all presupporters after the voting. There will be a limited time period for free conversions.
Card #0 is special. It will be given to all presupporters who vote on site selection. Extras will then be destroyed, and the card will not be reprinted. The print runs of ordinary cards will be based on anticipated demand, and the leftover stock will be offered for sale after the free conversion period ends.
