The Elements?

[greenman777]

I think there needs to be a section on the forums that explicitly states what each element is and is not. That would give people understanding for what each element needs, when it comes to card ideas and design.

You mean something like this? http://elementswiki.co.cc/

Basically but i have an more in depth feeling of what each element means to me. I thinking about starting a thread for each element asking, "What Does (Element) Mean To You?".
I will state my feelings for each element then see what others have to say.

one more thing, where is the appropriate location for this series of threads?
if i dont get a reply soon, i will pm SG to know where to post these threads

i will organize my thoughts before i make the posts.

I will wait a little longer for a response on where to post my threads.

Well, generally this would go under "General Discussion". If it's only one topic, it's not a problem. But if I understood correctly, you want to start one topic for each of the 12 elements, which might make it a bit "spammy". However I don't think it's that big of a problem as long as you don't start them all the same time.

Later, if you wanted, you could maybe do a compilation topic that had all the 12 elements and maybe the final "results" of this series (if there is one).

Good luck.

I will do this the way you want me to do it, and put it under 1 post. I feel each element deserves its own post, but i will abide by what you say.

That's not actually what I meant.

My point was that separate topics are fine as long as you don't start them all at the same time. Maybe start one, get some discussion going, let the discussion die a bit, then start the next one, etc. Once you have all 12, you can do a nice little compilation of them all if you want.

What I'd like to avoid is 12 similar topics appearing simultaneously in General Discussion. That would be needless clutter.

Problem with merging them all right from the get go is that discussion might be difficult as you are basically talking about 12 different things at the same time. But it's your project so do as you feel is best.
