I feel as though Im a glutton for punishment by working on Wild Card Checklists, and have a couple of questions....it seems the new format for Wild Card is no base cards....can you add a set w/o base cards or will it just have to be "deleted" afterwards? Wild Card is also creating "hybrid" sets (unliscenced sets with college and pro unis) so would that be added as college/draft/oddball..<--lol It seems like this "new" development would require both pro/college TIDs??? Final question/statement...it seems that Wild Card still hasnt figured out that CL is important to collectors and have released cards not even mentioned on thier website (including most recent releases) would it be better to not list as a "set" until info eventually becomes available (2023 matte/2023 7 card draw) or should it get added in the hopes Wild Card figures it out some day?

If a set does not have a base set, just add the insert sets and then submit an IR to have the set be set to not have a base checklist.  That will move all the insert sets to the main landing page for the set.  (Wow that's a lot of saying sets)

Last time I did that , I was griped at for adding the original set, so I was wondering if there was another way to add w/o base card or if it was just someone was being grouchy. (lol im lmao thinking of all the different sets there are, you get a set! you get a set! you get a set! sets for everyone!!!)

If it helps, look at the Wildcard set for 2023 / Baseball as an example.  It also does not have a base set.

You can create a set then just add Insert sets to it without anything in the base checklist area, then submit an IR asking us to format the set as inserts only, and it'll get updated. The reason why we got irritated before was because you entered the checklist into base then followed up soon after asking us to migrate all of it to Inserts.

Wild Card is also creating "hybrid" sets (unliscenced sets with college and pro unis) so would that be added as college/draft/oddball..

It depends on how it's being marketed. If it's college players with no draft info anywhere, it's "College". If it's college players with draft info (cities only due to no license), it's "Draft". If it's a mix of college, draft and pro, it goes in "Oddball".

It seems like this "new" development would require both pro/college TIDs???

It depends on the card design. There's a hierarchy in FAQ that we follow depending on college names/uniforms and/or pro names/uniforms.

Unless it's a Major Release, it's best to hold off until some semblance of a checklist is determined.

The reason why we got irritated before was because you entered the checklist into base then followed up soon after asking us to migrate all of it to Inserts.....??? When being griped at, I indicated everything pointed to the set having a base set (like in previous years and admitted to making a mistake, by adding base set) I suppose I didnt realize that it was such a grevious error to attempt correcting my mistake submitting an IR to delete base set and/or reformat entry as not having base cards.(inserts were added as inserts) It seems like youre saying do it exactly as I did before, but dont make the mistake of adding base set??? I was asking if theres a solution (rather than submitting IR)

I suppose oddball makes sense since its Wild Card after all (very inconsistant) which would also dictate the TID being a combo of college and pro  (Wild Card Pro look cards)

I understand that the Las Vegas Mint cards may never get added, but Matte is one of thier flagship releases so its confusing but once again Wild Card is consistantly inconsistant (I think 7 card draw is a minor release)
