1000 Blank White Cards

The card game where you write the rules

Sign-ups now Wait List open for a card-playing game where you build the rules of the game as the game goes along. You start with five cards to create and everyone plays a card a round. Turns can be taken in any order, but everyone can only play one turn a round. Win conditions are created by playing cards with new win conditions on. A player only wins if they're still winning after a full round has passed.

Spoiler: 12 Rules (click to show/hide)

1. Each player begins with five blank white cards, they may create five cards when they begin the game.
2. Each turn you may draw a card a fresh blank white card, create a card from a blank card, and play a card.
3. Each player takes one turn a round.
4. A round ends when all players have taken their turn.
5. Provisional win conditions to the game can be created with new rules; non-provisional win conditions can't be created.
6. If a player provisionally wins and everyone else in the game takes a turn afterwards and that player is still provisionally winning, then they win the game.
7. Each turn you may create a card and play a card.
8. Whatever a card says becomes a rule.
9. All card rules remain active indefinitely unless they say otherwise.
10. The rules on a card have to be clear and specific and not require any one player's interpretation otherwise they can be ignored.
11. The card creation rules must be followed for a card to be valid.
12. These 12 rules cannot be superceded by later rules.

Spoiler: Card Creation (click to show/hide)

Each card must have:
- A name, in bold.
- A single rule to follow, non italicised.
- Some kind of border (like a horizontal rule) marking about where the card begins and ends.

Cards without a name or a rule or cards with multiple rules are not allowed.

Optional: flavour text in italic, a small picture.

Example cards:

I Started Out With Nothing

If a player ever has no cards, they provisionally win.
...And I still got most of it left!

And Another Thing!

Whoever plays this card gets to play as many cards as they like on their turn.

Poodle Ascendancy
The only cards that have rules that should be followed are cards with the word 'Poodle' in the title.

And Another Thing! doesn't contradict Rule 2, as it works in addition to and not as opposed to #2.

Example Play
Player 1 could play And Another Thing and then immediately play I Started Out With Nothing (and all the other cards in their hand). This would mean that they'll win if these cards are still active after every other player has taken a turn. Player 2 could then invalidate these cards by playing Poodle Ascendancy and on it would continue...

In. If there's anything I need to do I'l do it once I get home.

[notquitethere]

There's nothing you need to do immediately but it wouldn't hurt to start thinking about your first five cards.

[notquitethere]

I'll bump this once before letting it die.

[Sheb]

I'm so in!

[Mesa]

I'm in. This is gonna be so fun, especially since (I'm assuming) we can also draw our own cards (I hope anyway, I want to make some cool pictures).

Yeah, you can definitely draw your own cards. Ideally, you'd post the entire card, including the title and rule text as a single image.

Hehe, sure thing.

[TamerVirus]

I'll try my hand at this

[notquitethere]

Ace, that makes 5, so...

ROUND 0

Everyone receives 5 blank cards before the game begins. Following the card creation rules, make five cards! When you've completed all five cards say Ready in the thread and when everyone is ready we'll begin.

[TamerVirus]

Ready?!?

[Trapezohedron]

Signups full? Aww, just sign me up on wait list.

[Sheb]

Ready.

[notquitethere]

Ready!

[Mesa]

READY!
(here's hoping all my cards are valid...Unless someone invalidates them of course.)
