DA RULES:

1. Anything a mod says trumps anything I say. Which might, I guess, be obvious, but I feel the need to say it.
2. I'll handle the deck shuffling and what hands you have over PM. In the forum, I'll post whose turn it is, and the public-y stuff. I'll PM you a card from the deck, and you post the card you'll play. Preferably through offsite links.
3. If it's your turn for more than 24 hours, it's considered a pass.
4. Cards from this game may be saved and used in later games.
5. Default card size is 230 pixels wide, and 300 tall. This isn't a strict limit, but more of a guideline. Remember to PM me them.
6. When playing a card, please state who you are playing it on, even if the card explicitly states who it affects.


Round 1
The Prize is: 20,000 Chips
The Winner is Neocamp

Round 2
The prize is: 5000 chips
The winner is Jackboy

The current points are:
Yubi Shines: -1260
Zcollins: -2,516
Valera: -1316
Satan: -12,516
Dorian Grey: 48,884
Neocamp: -1216
Zelandoni: -816
Olaf: -716

Turn Order
1. Yubi Shines
2. Zcollins
3. Valera
4. Dorian Grey
5. Satan
6. Neocamp
7. Zelandoni ***Skipping a Turn***
8. Olaf


The next card to be drawn is N/A.
0 cards remain in the deck.
The game has 68 total cards

The current player is: -----

The current effects are:
Yubi Shines: Purple Stash
Zcollins: Purple Stash
Valera: Purple Stash
Satan: Purple Stash
Dorian Grey: Purple Stash
Neocamp: Purple Stash
Zelandoni: Wuss, Purple Stash
Olaf: Purple Stash

Last Turn:
We all lose 100 points. Neocamp draws THE FINAL CARD....But discards it.Does not! It is in fact discarded immediately before being played.

It, in fact, does. I only now see that that could've been pretty useful, but at the time, it didn't even occur to me. Moot point, though, since you didn't take advantage. Satan was the only other person who would've been affected, and he corrected me too.

Current turn:
Game Over. Sidedeck creation begins.

Next Turn:
?????

This would be cooler in IRC. Just because.

EDIT: I cleaned up the thread, just to make things nicer. I'll be updating the rules as well. << MN


Thanks for the cleanup. This would be funner for a PLAYER in IRC. Running the game takes a lot longer than you'd think. I spent 40 minutes dealing, though a lot of that was due to me screwing up this and that. It'd still take a long time even if I did everything right the first time. Note how many edits I've made already.

For future reference: Dealing in this game is incredibly annoying. Next round will have 24 hours between sign-up closing and game starting, so I can be better organized. Remind me.

Things should proceed smoothly from here, though.

On Valera.

I'm heading to work so I threw my card down before I got dealt one(my turn is after Valera's though), I'll be back in about 9-10 hours.

Drawing on a blank card, I play this on Zelandoni, because I am a bad person.

I play a card:

Ratatosk finally downgraded to XP, but in the process lost his hard drive, including the deck list!

:cry:

Effect: Everyone please PM me with what cards you have. The game is on pause, though I hope we'll be able to restart the game by tomorrow. My plan is to basically just make a new decklist. I can do this simply by reading my private messages inbox and sentbox, but people sending me their hands makes this an easier and faster process.

The game will resume WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT ROLLOVER.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Deck remade. I think I remember there being more blanks, but hey. That's part of the anything-can-happen nature of the game, right?

Anyway, game restarts now. Apologies for any inconvenience.

With hate in her eyes... again, and distaste for beards visible upon her face... again, Valera viciously draws on a blank card... again?, before slamming it down in the middle of the table... again, effectively playing it on all of us... again. "Beards?! I hate beards, they make me crazy..." Perhaps she's been reading too many Ryme dictionary entries. This whole process feels very Deja Vuish, like there might be machines nearby or something.

I came up with this today as an anti-derivative formula.

Edit: In case it needed to be stated, this was a blank card.

Played on me :p

Points multiplied by -1.

Card edited to remove uncertainty. The cat is alive.

I had attempted something somewhat against the rules.

I edited the card so that it is activated on everyone.

Quick question: Would Olaf's 100 points per turn card give us -100 points per turn due to the purple beard?

Oh, hmmm, I thought that was just a one-time reversal. :/

Wait a sec... Zel didn't consider Valera's beard points become negative thing. Since all of our point totals are now due to a beard, they basically just switch back to what they were because of that effect. Or do they? I don't know :(

Edit: Upon re-reading Val's card description, anyone whose points became negative would stay negative. Those who became positive would then just go back to negative, as the effect is positive beard points become negative.

The anti-beard card was a one-time effect, it doesn't apply here. Points given are reversed, everyone loses 100 points a turn unless the effect is dispelled.

Instead of working with the confusing mechanics that break brains, I instead choose to do the one thing that is best! Ignore everything dealing with points, and instead...

On Zel [it's your fault!] I play this..

Unless, of course, it's turns skipped * -1, in which c....

Okay, if the beard is persistent, here's how it probably should work:

a)player plays card
b)effect is applied
c)that player's point total is multiplied by -1
d)play proceeds to next player

That was a blank, by the way.

He did.

I'm ruling "Blank Card" to mean any card that was blank went we dealt. If you got a blank card, and made it something between getting it and DG's turn, sorry.

Edited for making things that aren't words be words.

I play this card on myself.

Since there were only 2 cards left after I drew, that gives me those two cards and effectively ends the game, no?
