K so...sup? Any who this is my test topic for my brand new idea of DOTR. Its still in its early to bare in mind these aren't the final images.
I want to run the tests with the staff before putting the porduct on the market.
It will generate what I hope more use with the dragon points, cuz it is all paid with dragon points. But during events and such cards will be given away as a door prize or something so people new to the guide will gain cards by doing other events thoughout the guide.
Now keeping track of who can use what card will need a running list and what not, so If I have any one out there willing to help out ^^;;; that would be the job.
The game it self, as of right now is a copy of the mini card game found in FF8 on just a simple rule set up. As the project moves on I play to add in a few new elements to make it more orginal. For more information on this card system plese vist this site....----> http://acmicpc-live-archive.uva.es/nuevoportal/data/problem.php?p=2033

Now DCG is short for the Dragon Card Game....no duh xD
As of right now the card size is 185 by 270 like dis samples I have.

User ImageUser Image

Now my slight twist to the game is that there are 4 levels of cards.
Low level ((common UN dragons mostly))
Med level ((common rares/most customs))
High level ((rare rares and powerful RPing dragons))
Super level ((only cards with Ace's, these have custom pics like the sample you see))

Now at launch I want to have 70 cards ready. Now, for those thinking
So are my dragons going to be on these cards? The answer is No
If you want your dragons on a set of cards they have to be special ordered. These cost real gold and a Questionnaire has to filled out for each dragon you want a card for. So that way, by how you answer I can determine the power of the card and such. So dragons who RP alot will be more powerful then those who don't at all.
This way there aren't a huge amount of high level cards out there and so the low level ones wont become useless. -_-

Ok the game bord as of right now looks like this xD

I'll have to find away to make this more simple for people who just get confused easly.

Ok say I want to take this card

and use it...so all I do is take this
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v65/Zargata/DCG/openspace.png[/IMG]

and turn into this by coping and pasting it in.

Hey zargata, Idea! ^ ^

For beta Testing you shouldn't Worrie about images, just do Numbers and the elemnts and stuffles.


Also I think The Images should be Much smaller ^ ^;;

thats just me though.. you should ask mythee and Omana too about it x3

cards should be a dragon egg xD



Low level Hachlings?
Med level Normal Dragons / some of the less awsome rares
High level Awsome rares / Npcs
Super level NPC @_@



*throws ideas*
PostPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 9:40 pm


Yeah that sounds good.
Lets see what I wrote down last night...
((a tad outdated))
Lowest level cards: all numbers add up to 12, so like
7
1 1
3
~
2
2 4
4
~
5
5 1
1
~
3
3 3
3
Stuff like that, these would be UN dragons or children or something

Next we have the Medium level cards, all numbers add to 16-ish,
examples would be like,

4
4 4
4
~
10
2 2
2
~
etc etc
Low and Med have a limit of the number 1-10 none can have Aces
on them.

Then High level cards are some NPCs and tough dragons or something
they add up to 20

5
5 5
5
~
10
8 1
1
~
5
2 3
10
~
((Ace or A = 11))
A
4 2
3
~
Then the Last level is for Gods/Super uber strong people like
G0ldenstar or Diana, Dark Lord, Zara etc etc
They have still the limit of 20 but they get a Free Ace on the card,
but I don’t think you can put more
Then one ace on any one card so it be like
8
4 8
A
~
A
6 6
8
~
9
2 A
9
~
So that way even though it is a powerful card it still has at least
a weakness. The beauty of this system is that just about anyone
can
win no matter the cards, its about the placement and timing. If
anything I think it be a great addition to the store that would be
just a fun side game to play.
Also, it would be a lot of work to make one for every person who
asks and to come up with all those numbers. @_o So I thought that
maybe we could have 10 card starter decks they can buy, each
with 6 low level cards, 3 medium cards, and one high card. We
could have a starter deck theme for each type of dragon. So
that’s already 7 decks with 70 different cards at launch.

In the original game when you beat the opponent, you could take
a card from the 5 they used during the game. We could have bets
the users could place before it began, so like I say I bet only 1
card, and I lose, you take only 1 card, and vice versa. That way
people can expand their decks. And if say some one loses enough
to only have 4 cards and no longer can play the game, they can
then buy a new started pack and have a total of 14 cards.


Then here are some number samples
12, possibilities:

1 1 7 3

3 3 3 3

5 5 1 1

2 2 4 4

4 5 2 1

8 2 1 1

9 1 1 1

6 4 1 1

6 3 2 1

7 2 2 1

16, possibilities:

4 4 4 4

10 2 2 2

10 1 3 2

9 1 3 3

7 5 3 1

6 5 3 2

5 5 5 1

8 4 3 1

7 4 4 1

8 3 3 2

6 6 2 2

20, possibilities:

9 9 1 1

10 4 5 1

5 5 5 5

8 2 8 2

7 3 7 3

6 6 6 2

5 7 6 2

10 4 4 2

7 8 2 3

8 9 2 1

20 A possibilities:

A 9 110

A 7 7 6

A 8 8 4

A 6 6 8

A 5 5 10

A 9 9 2

A 8 9 3

A 8 6 6

A 7 9 4

A 7 8 5

And then for eggs and stuff add an introductory level maybe...hmm

For Color change you shouldn't Sorry about making like two or Three of Each Image...


you Could do Somthing like this at the Top of Each post:



* * *
* * *
* * *




So you know wich cards in what area are whos x3
PostPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 11:01 pm


To keep track Of who Owns wich card you should try giving each card a I.D. numer (So you don't have to make a Billion of the same card)


then just make a Listings With names of the People who own cards followed by a listing of I.D.'s of wich cards they Own, followed by how many of that card they own ^ ^~

also good for Customs ^^~

Indeed, great suggestions by the way ^^
I think both are great ideas for sure
PostPosted: Tue Jul 31, 2007 12:05 pm


I just saw this post! Wow What an Idea... I agree with g0lden that the images should be smaller. I wonder how many people would "get" the rules and such and how to position their cards, so definately will need training workshops in just playing the game me thinks... =) But an awesome idea.

So the cards will be hand drawn figures of the dragons? Definately makes them unique. =) heart
