The Magic 30th Anniversary Countdown Secret Lair comes with 30 cards, each of which have a 70% chance of being non-foil and 30% chance of being foil. Each card is wrapped individually in its own booster-like packaging.

I could guess non-foil for each card and get about 70% right, but that would be boring. As classic MTG foils go, foil cards are curled slightly. By examining the pack (sight, feel, slight bending), I will attempt to guess whether or not the pack has a foil or non-foil, then record whether or not the card was foil.

This resolves to YES if I correctly guess the foil/non-foil treatment of at least 20 of the 28 packs I haven't opened already. I plan on opening about one card a day until Christmas. (It is an advent calendar, after all.)
