ngoeminne	and in the new decks there are some new ones	20:56:16
ngoeminne	like homesick	20:56:26
ngoeminne	Ah, and if you'd like to come up with ideas for the Merfolk deck, that would be great :-)	20:57:42
ngoeminne	it has names + arwork, but no mechanics	20:58:02
snowdrop	ngoeminne you have flying, right? I renamed it to stealth in gaia due to flying sledom being depicted in art, and would be done in bad way even if we began due to it's horizontal and diff size than humanoid units,sio way diff scales	21:19:13
snowdrop	ngoeminne Ill let my merfolk have sneak (what i meant with Stealth) as it suits them thematically	21:19:24
snowdrop	ngoeminne Its also easy to create new mechanics/keyword around them moving via water, whatever that can translate into.	21:19:52

TappedOut	Is Alex the first unset card???	08:49:58
TappedOut	There's a typo in Kalenz, it should be from not form.	09:02:38
ngoeminne	TappedOut "Alex" is a trial card for learning the card-db and layout text	14:50:39
ngoeminne	TappedOut But it could be one of our first unglued cards	14:51:43
Alex	ngoeminne: I'm finally looking over the cards. First feedback is just general: Why are some words bolded? It seems inconsistently used, and doesn't seem to mean anything. I know this is true for previous cards too, but for instance in Swanport level 4, the word you is bold, but then "you" in the same sentence is not bold. Arcmage doesn't have the same ability to "hold the card text in a court of law" that Magic does. What I mean is, Magic card text sounds like it was written by lawyers. A lot of Arcmage cards have holes in them. With Swanport as another example, level 0 says "unless you reach level 4"... but the official Arcmage rules say that levels must be activated in order. So you'd reach level 0, it would be true that you aren't at level 4, the ability would happen, then you could continue on to level 4.	22:11:08
Alex	In Magic language, Swanport should probably say: Level 0: You get a Legendary enchantment token called Swanport Enchantment with "When you play an enchantment card, each player may draw a card." Level 4: Destroy all Swanport Enchantment tokens you own.When an enchantment you own enters the battlefield this turn, you may draw a card.	22:15:42
Alex	Obviously for Magic there are tournament players so it's really important the rules are extremely solid. Not so for Arcmage. And I knew the intention of the card. I think this issue wouldn't affect a newbie, but a veteran Magic player would likely argue that level 0 and 4 can both be used	22:34:04
Alex	*tournament players who win cash prizes	22:34:22
Alex	Still reviewing the others	22:34:49
Alex	I tried clicking "generate deck PDF" and got nothing. any chance you can send the deck pdf another way so I can print them?	22:36:09
Jesusalva	Lately I have been trying to solve all possible disputes on the estatute of a community using a Internal Regiment... Result, the Internal Regiment is already as big as the Estatute and only address a few key points.	22:54:40
Jesusalva	Personally I prefer that Card text transmit the intention	22:55:09
Jesusalva	And such "Exploits" get dealt in a (huge) external PDF file (or, at the time of play by the players)	22:56:28
Jesusalva	On a simple Card game, for example, where you can only use one Card per turn and must empty your hand first. Can you use two cards if they are equal? Nobody here seeks for the author words. Each community have their own set of rules that says how that will work.	22:58:48
Jesusalva	These communities sometimes also estabilish custom rules because they think it'll be more fun this way	22:59:19
Alex	Recycling Resources This is such an awesome and creative card!! One of the best I've seen take advantage of Arcmage's differences from Magic	23:06:03
Alex	https://aminduna.arcmage.org/#/cards/80b440a3-c36f-4f0f-82cc-d84b572cbe20	23:06:07
Alex	Is homesick a new ability? I changed the definition to fix a few typos.	23:11:26
Alex	It seems weird for there to be an ability and a card of the same name	23:11:49
Alex	I'd consider calling it "A mother's touch" or "Smell of pine" or something like that	23:13:26
Alex	I love the flavor that homesickness adds to the game. Very creative stuff, makes me feel homesick	23:15:02
Alex	Elvish Cloak: Changed "...can only be stopped by Elves or Gaigan creatures" to "Elf or Gaigan". Elf is the creature type, not Elves	23:21:05
Alex	I also think "and" might be better than "or" but I'm not certain	23:21:35
