Yeah, same. I unfortunately am about to start a freakish 19-hour semester of doom, so I don't really have time to run the thing myself - playing probably wouldn't take much time, but deckbuilding and world/plotbuilding probably would.

About to start an 18 hour long one myself, so time might actually become a factor as well.

I can say that I would be able to help with general plot stuff, as the mechanic aspects and deckbuilding are what I fail at.  I'd have to keep it vague for the most part, as I would like to actually join the game as a player (probably want to slip a couple connections in backstory to be able to explain away any slip ups.  Insurance purposes only, though).

I'd offer, but I'm going to be GMing my own game soon enough.

I suppose I could do it then, if you handle the general outlines of the plots and stuff.

Either that or I just act as an advisor on the decks you can make :p, whichever one you prefer.

I could come up with themes for decks, if it'll help!

I have hundreds of unused notecards, an empty whiteboard, and two old chalkboards.  In all honesty, I could probably go into great detail.  Going to probably avoid going into too much, as in order to prevent an IC slip-up, I need to drop ever increasing number of hints into the backstory, then suddenly I would be designated as the main character.  I'd prefer to stick with a more ambiguous position.  Plus limit my OOC knowledge, so nothing is spoiled.

Anyway, want an original thread <no advantage either way, really.  Most of this one I have unplanned.  Might actually be a slight towards brand new, as there are several things that I probably laid out and have completely forgotten about that would have to be sorted though.  However, then there's the case of pre-existing stuff, which works either way, in the slant towards established PCs to be able to work around, but there being established setting and interactions.  Then there's the pricing, which I don't know what I had set-up to determine decreases, etc., etc., rambling, rambling.>, and if so, where are you limiting the cards to (Rare Fusion, Fusion, Fusion-Rare Synchro, Fusion-Synchro, Fusion-Rare XYZ, Fusion-Synchro-Rare XYZ, Fusion-Synchro-XYZ, etc.), wherein rare would be a case of the cards not being seen often.  In the case of initial sign-ups, whatever would be 'rare' would be a case of at most 1 per initial deck (with tuners being at 2 for synchros) for the PCs, and the cards only showing up with major characters for the most part, though some being held by the occasional minor character.  Can set a custom limit for that, though, as the 1 per initial is just an example.

If we do a new thread, can I make a synchro deck?

Sure, I'll probably put a limit on how many you can start with though so there is room to grow.

Of course! I just think I'd do better with a synchro deck, for some reason. And I AM gonna base it off of Yusei's deck why do you ask.

I'm probably going to do some thinking about changes that can be made to rarity restrictions. I understand the idea of letting us improve, but I suspect a lot of the interesting and useful decks just don't operate well at intermediate points - for example, a lot of Synchro-reliant decks really need the right ratio of Tuners to work at all, or at least searchability. Some rarity restrictions can make including the core engines for certain decks, especially ones with a large Extra Deck presence, pretty punishing as well.

That sounds like a good idea, thank you. It's tough to get the balance right with allowing the deck to function while still allowing for it to be upgradable.

Some rarity restrictions can make including the core engines for certain decks, especially ones with a large Extra Deck presence, pretty punishing as well.

The numbers I gave were an example and up to Kansa to change, but the fact remains: If you are in a 'Rare Synchro' world, there won't be Synchro-reliant decks, because it so hard to get ahold of them.  Only a person with money to burn would be able to get all the necessary cards for one of them, especially since it would be hard to get tuners as well, since they are one of the aspects of Synchro summoning and would be affected by 'Rare Synchro'.

Pretty much think in the case of 'Rare' (especially Rare Synchro), game changing when they show up, but hard to get to show up.

Of course! I just think I'd do better with a synchro deck, for some reason. And I AM gonna base it off of Yusei's deck why do you ask.

If you do that, keep an eye out to shift the cards that rely upon Stardust dragon out, as that's a unique card in-universe.  Might be easiest to work on using the deck he had before getting Stardust dragon, considering that.

I don't really mind if we have a new thread or not. What does everyone here want?

I would say 'new', as I wound up turning this one into a mess.  Gonna message over the setting details I've come up with.

I'm actually going with just a bunch of Synchro monsters and warriors, themed around the Junk line. There's plenty of room to add more monsters and spells later.
