Card Design Competition: Shard Revolution
Objective: Design a new shard in light of the upcoming reworks and additions of a fresh series: Shards! (One per element)

That's right folks - this is another Shard-designing competition in light of the new updates reported by Zanz (found here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,17265.msg393805#msg393805)). Although there has been a previous competition (See 'Shard Madness (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11099.0.html)'), the best time to show a community's creativity and support for a game is often when the developer seeks new ideas, so bring in your elemental-caps and pump out the best idea of a shard!

Just for added emphasis - the lead developer, Zanzarino, is actively seeking out unique Shard concepts for the below elements in game; although your idea is not guaranteed to be added, there is a significantly higher chance that your concept will be looked upon by the developer himself and be tweaked and added to the upcoming patch! :o


Rules:

1) Pick a virtue from the following table below.
All of the shards currently in game (and in development (http://www.elementsthegame.com/development.html)) are actually based on real-life virtues. The virtue will obviously determine the name of your idea, but should also help establish your mechanic for the shard in question. Note that when someone takes up a name, the virtue can still be used again with the exception that it cannot be in the same poll*.

*THIS MEANS THAT YOU CAN USE ANY VIRTUE USED BY SOMEONE ELSE AND TWEAK THE ELEMENT FOR IT TO QUALIFY!
(i.e. - If Scaredgirl made a 'Shard of Kindness' for Air, I could also create a Shard of Kindness for Darkness, and it would still qualify)


The first phase of voting will be separated by element for the ideas, so no shard can have the same name in the same element poll. An element icon will be placed next to the name when some officially posts the idea in the submissions thread.

2) Decide which art piece is best suited for the elemental shard in question.
The following art pieces are modified images of the shards currently in game to match the missing elements. Based on in-game development an future changes, :light (Divinity), :life (Gratitude), :time (Readiness), and :death (Sacrifice) are already selected and thus not included within the list of available elements.

NOTE: You can only select ONE element for your shard to be a part of. You may not edit the image in any way, shape or form, otherwise you may face immediate disqualification from the competition.

:aetherbig:airbig
:darknessbig:earthbig
:entropybig:firebig
:gravitybig:waterbig

3) Use Planplan's card image generator to build the image accordingly.

>>CLICK HERE FOR THE OFFICIAL CARD IMAGE GENERATOR<< (http://helltgivre.free.fr/elements/card_beta/)

NEW RULES

Please make sure that you use the 'Other' Card for the background template of the shard. (i.e. - Shards are 'Other' cards, and do not belong to a specific element!)

Also, please PLEASE post both versions of your shard idea! (both unupped and Upgraded) in the Submissions topic)



If you cannot use Planplan's card image generator, please notify a Card Curator immediately (or ask someone else to create the image for you).

4) Post the idea!
All Shard ideas SHOULD NOT BE POSTED in this topic, but rather, in a sticky submission found in the Card Competition Submission board:
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,28846.0.html

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Submit your ideas in that topic please!




Voting:
Voting is done in two major phases.

The first phase (2-3 days) first separates all of the shard ideas into their respective elements chosen by the authors. If there are two shards with the same name in the same elemental poll, the person who 'claimed' (posted) their idea first will get priority. Once the top shard ideas are voted from each element, the second phase begins. In the latter phase, shards are then randomly seeded against one another in a single-elimination 'voting tournament' for 3 rounds (each taking 1-2 days). The shard with the higher votes will then advance against the next shard in the brackets, until there is only one shard concept remaining.



SHARD DESIGNING PHASE:
Voting will begin shortly!


Good luck! And please ask all questions in this thread.

is it shooting yourself in the foot to build upon his initial thoughts for :fire , :water or :aether shards? ...or not to, for that matter?  and zanz said he intends to have basic/upgraded functioning shards, should we make one of each or just the upgraded shard? should all shards which are permanents be required to be stackable- or is that change simple for SoGs?
