The rules are simple! If you're interested in playing, simply submit 15 cards to me in a forum compatible format (for example, bb link codes). These cards should be rectangles 200px tall, and 140px wide. Anything thats reasonable sized or shaped will be accepted though.

Players who are not playing can still submit cards, but 15 is the minimum to participate in the actual game.

When the game starts, I will deal each player their hands and we will go.

To make things easier for this format, the basic rules will be as follows:
Players all play simultaneously until either each players has said "END TURN" or 48 hours have passed.
I will send each player an initial hand of 5 cards.
Cards are played by saying a target and then posting the image of the card. (ex. "Playing this on ExKirby" :POST_IMAGE:)
Some cards may have other targets available, but unless specified otherwise, cards will be targeted against players.
Each day I update the status of the board, I will post the cards in effect on each player, and players will be sent 3 additional cards.
Cards that target a player will generally remain in play under that players control.
Cards that do not remain in play will be sent to the "trash" or "discard pile" or "graveyard" or whatever you want to call it.

Creating Cards and Points guidelines
The winner is the player with the most points at the end of the game
By default, points work like so: Cards are worth a certain number of points, and grant those points to the player that owns them/was targeted by them.
Points can be either positive (+100pts) or negative(-100pts).
Point range should be kept between 100 to 1000 points, preferably in multiples of 10.


Feel free to keep your cards secret, or to discuss them in the other games thread!
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=79143.0

Once the game is finished, we will vote on which cards to keep for future rounds, and which ones to commit forever to the abyss.

At this rate, I have no hope of creating a full 15 cards until the first two full games of this have been played.

did some clarification of basic point system and added some more guidelines.

While cards can assign points to certain players, overall they should simply be WORTH a number of points, and whoever owns them at the end of the game gets the points.

I'm in. Will submit my cards within the week, homework permitting

How will we be handling card destruction or card throwing?

Well, card destruction can be done by sending the card image to the recycle bin, and card throwing can be done mentally by pretending that you're throwing a card in to the target's *insert body part here*.

Sent in my 15 cards.

So, wait, why are we drawing three cards a turn? Can we just play as many cards as we want, or what?

Well, unless a rule is instituted either by a card or by agreement that says otherwise!

Also, important rule we might want to consider:
The "That Sucks, no way" rule.
If all players (-1) agree that a card or some component of a card totally sucks, it can be ignored. :P
Good to counter those who put in "I win" cards, or even worse, "Vanigo Loses", or try to abuse the "blank draw" feature I may or may not include.

Furturka -
I've clarified that part of the OP.
I meant to say 15, it means you need to submit 15 cards to actually participate in the game and get dealt cards and take turns and stuff.
