How It Works
All you need to do to play is be able to make an image in Paint or another image editing program and host it on the internet - I recommend imgur.
During registration, each player will PM me 5 (not 4 or 6) cards. These cards can be as simple or as complex as you wish, but many follow this guide:
I will add 5 of my own cards to the players 25 pre-made cards, and twice as many blank cards, will be shuffled to create the starting deck (90 cards in total). Each player will then be dealt a hand of 7 cards to begin with.Wikipedia article on 1000 Blank White Cards wrote:A card consists (usually) of a title, a picture and a description of its effect. The title should uniquely identify the card. The picture can be as simple as a stick figure, or as complex as the player likes. The description, or rule, is the part that affects the game. It can award or deny points, cause a player to miss a turn, change the direction of play, or do anything the player can think of. The rules written on cards in play make up the majority of the game's total ruleset.
Each turn, players will be dealt one new card, and then play one card from their hand. They can play a pre-made card, or, if they have a blank card, create a new card and play it, simply by posting it in thread. The player list will be shuffled just before the game begins and turns will go from top of player list to bottom (and then wrap around back to top).
Once all the cards have been dealt out and played, the winner will be determined.
Cards target a single player which must be specified when the card is played, unless it specifically states otherwise.
Deadline to play a card is 48 hours after new card is dealt.
3 missed deadlines and YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GAME. If you feel you will not be able to continue playing, please PM me and we'll see if we can find a replacement. If a replacement cannot be found, or if a player is removed from the game, any cards that player played will remain in play but their hand will be placed in the discard pile (after being revealed to all players).
Due to the nature of this game, the very method which determines the winner is likely to change mid-game. The game itself is about creativity rather than strategy though, so try not to take it too seriously.
