Missing 2011 Vintage Championship Unique card (fix completed)
The database has a set called "WLD" (Championship Prizes) with the cards of the Vintage Championship Event of Indianapolis where the winner is given an UNIQUE oversized card from the Power 9 list (Black lotus, Moxes...) The card from the 2011 Championship (Time Walk) is missing from the database.

Also, the card "Balduvian Horde" on that set is not related with the other cards (It was given on a complete different event and more than one copy of that card exist), so maybe you should put it on a different "special set" and/or change the name of "WLD Championship Prizes" to something like "GCV Gen Con Vintage Tournament" or something else more appropriate. A set called Championship Prizes is quite ambiguous because there are many special sets with cards awarded as championship prizes

Time walk is added.
About Balduvian Horde. It is very hard to divide numerous promo cards into sets. I don't like the idea of creating separate set for each event - we will end having lots of sets with one or two cards. That's why I'm trying to group similar events into one set. But I'm open to your ideas. If you have better way to group promos - you're welcome.
P.S. Hmm. Looks like "1996 World Champion" should also belong to "Championship Prizes" set.

I'm with you. It's not good to have multiple sets for very few cards.
My idea is to have individual sets for groups of cards that are supposed to grow, for instance: Grand Prix Promos, Pro Tour Promos, Pre-Release... and this WLD set of Vintage Gen Con championship (I would change the name of it like I said on my first post to something more precise).
Then I would group all the other orphan cards in a single set called "Other championship prizes" (to avoid confusion with Champions Prizes) where I would put that Balduvian Horde and any other card from minor tournaments arround the world. The fact is, at the moment, to be honest there are no such cards. The only orphan cards are the ones from CVP (Convention Promos) and I'm not sure to move them. And a set just for Balduvian Horde is not good. Maybe another option is to move Balduvian Horde to CVP with a note comment stating the origin of the card.
BTW, I think that 1999 World Champion should remain to Ultra Rare Card. That card is unique in many ways: Not only one copy exist but wizards only make one card of that kind (designed and given to a champ winner), and it was sold to a collector by an undisclosed amount of money. The collector value of it is equal to the other Ultra Rare Cards.
That's my opinion and thanks for your help, you can close the ticket.
