It should be noted that Some cards are different between the Open game and the Trainer. Pufferfish comes to mind which is now 3|5. This also changes the aspects of gods that have the cards being tested added to them where they don't exist in the full game.
Ow.

Since I'm doing the Trials of Water, I'm probably using Pufferfish in Trainer. Hope that's not a problem. :/

Where are featured articles?
You tell me.


Awesome.

This is going to be quite interesting.

Do the cards ideas need to be legit?
Must they attempt and make the crucible?
Cards have to be "Crucible ready" but they don't have to get into Crucible. There's no time for that.

You expressed interest in helping out with Trials. Now is your chance. I need someone to make sure all the cards are legit aka "Crucible ready" (no need to move them though). It worked out pretty well since it's basically your job anyways. :) Only difference is of course that this might be some extra work because of potentially high volume of new cards in a short period. You can put all the other cards on hold until we finish Phase 1.


ad synergies: something like phoenix-ash (is ash then a card?), or just work well together (like immolation-photon, for example), and must all 6 cards do that or for example always pairs so 3x2 cards, that have a synergie?
Both those examples would work.

Each card has to have synergy with at least one of the 5 other cards.

Can FG decks been made with In Depelovement Cards?
Yes.


Hm. This actually provides a VARIETY of competitors in terms of what they're able to do; I like this 'choice' option that you've set up SG ;).
Thanks. Yes, I wanted to give people options so they are not forced to write 1500+ word articles with broken English.


Holy, these are all hard tasks. Very time consuming certainly.
Hm.. I don't know. I think they are pretty easy to be honest.

Option 1.
This should be easy to all FG grinders. Most time consuming part is probably taking those screenshots. The whole thing might take a few hours but its' also playing Elements so I don't think it's a big deal.

Option 2.
Again, very easy for card designers. If you don't have your own ideas, just visit the "Steal My Idea!" topic.

Option 3.
Sounds worse than actually is. For example 9 Tips for Better Deck Building (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,3329.0.html) article has 1702 words and it's not that long imo.


It should be noted that Some cards are different between the Open game and the Trainer. Pufferfish comes to mind which is now 3|5. This also changes the aspects of gods that have the cards being tested added to them where they don't exist in the full game.
That's a good point. Unfortunately there's nothing we can do about that because even if we banned the Trainer, it would be easy to cheat and use it anyways.

So the Trainer can be used no matter what the card situation is.

Can we have a child board for Trials entries?
I'll post a topic that candidates can put their entries in.
I'll move them into the child board once they are crucible ready.

Also, can the article be an extension of something we've already worked on and/or written?

I think I'll go for the article (I like writing) and false god deck (for the challenge). Obviously it will focus around wings, but I'm curious to see if I can make it a duo or trio instead of a rainbow. I'll do the false god deck first. Should be a lot of fun! Great options, Scaredgirl (especially since I'm probably going to epically fail at the false god deck, so I can resort to cards...)

I recall you saying you would have given Essence a run for his/her money if you could sign up for Trials of Water. ;)

Hmm, for Section 3, can I just write up about :light in general? So a big overview on it

You can steal a previous idea but the article itself has to be at least 75% new material.

So you suck at:
- deckbuilding/fighting FG's
- designing cards
- writing articles

If that is true then maybe being a Master is not your cup of tea? :)

Sure. You can write about pretty much anything.

For the FG deck, i built an initial deck, and have been tweaking it as i've been playing. I've beat a few gods with a couple different versions of the deck (changes held to a few cards) and so my earllier screenshots have cards like "steal" in them, though they aren't in my final version of the deck, is this a problem? My real question is, do all the screenshots of the gods being defeated have to be with exactly the same deck?

You have to use the same exact deck every time.
