I'm still wondering why you went double-stacked, I recall Andy finding double-stacked boxes irritating at some point. I guess it's time for me to accept that it's not 1999 (I think that's when I saw an Icehouse display the first time, and I was instantly attracted to the concept but I was small and it was out of my price/attention span matrix).

If you mean the side-by-side two half-stacks of cards style box where you split the deck in half and put each half on one side of the divider, that's not what Andy hated. He hated *tuckboxes* like that. You know, the very thing that Zombie Fluxx uses. It is a good thing that Andy hates them, since the marketing requirements of having a "double-wide" box combined with that hatred is likely the catalyst for the design of the amazing new style boxes, which I love almost as much as I hate side-by-side tuckboxes. :)
