Amnesia/Nostalgia

[seulintse]

EDIT:*blah blah blah some text that is LITERALLY the same as the notes section* (although thankful that a curator took note and merged teh topics... sorry)

Dear god, I've been posting in the wrong forum section all along  *GASP*
http://imgur.com/39slxXs Thats the card idea (on a card no less), redone.

NAME: Amnesia ELEMENT: ? COST: ? TYPE: Spell TEXT:	NAME: nostalgia ELEMENT: ? COST: ? TYPE: Spell TEXT:

ART: N/A IDEA: Seulintse NOTES: This is another card like Doppelganger (too lazy to look up the a with an umlaut), based more so on being thematic, instead of the idea itself (theme is kinda just the name of the card and the images it evokes). No ideas would be final in any way, and suggestions would be heavily appreciated. Don't know what the element, cost, or almost anything else should be, aside from the card cannot be reused, and something along the lines of "forgetting something" and a feeling of general "deja vu"...  well the feeling left of something like that. Also, it would be interesting to play this in the beginning of the game.  SERIES: N/A

No, this is the wrong section. Don't post here unless you actually have a complete card idea.

I think you forgot to put the card there

also the title of the thread should be amnesia l nostalgia not amnesia/nostalgia but that doesn't really matter

[seulintse]

holy $H!+, I put this in pre-smithy ideas and it gets like no response or any sort of traffic, and then it turns into "wrong section"? kinda... meh (ok, would you like to tell me why it's wrong?)

Would you like to read the thread titled "READ THIS BEFORE POSTING YOUR CARD IDEA!"?

[seulintse]

are you referring to no card art? yes, I do need to go and make a card of sorts (although like I said, is not really... yeah). elsewise, the card idea is there (NOT final by any means. Please tell me where to put the feedback thread, because its evidently not the "pre-smithy" ideas (that evidently don't seem to get much traffic at all...)) And if I completely missed the point, well damn.

[CuCN]

how do we know when an idea is ready for the Smithy?
do we decide that ourselves or we need to wait for some kind of approval?

Well , does an idea have:
A name
a starting. cost
Does text fit within the box of the card image?
If it is a creature are stats at a reasonable starting point .
can all used areas of the table be filled out.

Note: A Smithy thread title must have thr following format .
Unupped |Upped

Dear CuCN, you seem like a really good person, alot of posts, know what you're talking about, but I'm running a poll to ask WHAT it should do, like fuck, I posted it in the pre-smithy sub-forum, where the "read before posting" said to post if you didn't know what it should do. If you want to tell me this isn't the place to do it where it will get some form of feedback, then go to the pre-smithy section and comment on that, and prove people will visit it.

We have little to critique.
The only real thing we can say right now is "Amnesia and nostalgia seems like a good theme for a card."

As for the poll options, all of them are impossible in the code.
EtG cannot keep track of items turn after turn unless a card tells it to.
You can say "In X turns, do Y", but that is very weak in terms of turn reversal.

Also, turn/board reversal has been done a lot. It's either too OP or too clunky and weak.

I'd focus on hand reversal, which can be notorious to balance.
