Evil Lord Proteus Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Members of the board, can we PLEASE stop this sick obsession with every card NEEDING to apparently have an effect? Are you that out of touch with the game itself? a card with well written flavor text is ten times the display of creativity than a card with some overpowered effect. So can we please stop judging cards soley by whether or not they have an effect? i have been viewing threads lately and i see a LOT of people saying stuff like "add effects" and "no effects". just my two cents. Peace out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilrow Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I know what you mean, however when someone makes a set of cards where 70% of the monsters are normal monsters, usually with bland flavour text, it just looks lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 and anybody can make flavour text and normal monsters but the true display of your creativity is when you make an effect monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Definition Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 i know EXACTLY besides I make quite a few cards but never show them and when i do people say"Need more better effects" or "to little of a effect" i'm actually to the point where i will make a set with ONLY flavor text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco Straybyrn Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Lol. I can get away with having Normal Monsters, they're part of my set's strategy. Make them useful, and then people will accept them. EX: Tragic Tiger is in the Grave, Alenala is on the field. Activate Soul of Chaos. Give Alenala Tragic Tiger's effect, bam. Pretty wicked, and a use for Normal Monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Slime Lord Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 If the flavor text is good, then I'm fine with it. I'd rather see some creative flavor text than an unoriginal effect any day. But when making a card and posting it in Realistic Cards, most people will expect an effect. I would as well. You'd think it would be a different story when posting in the Pop Culture or Any Other Cards. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alsharid Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 What is flavor text? Is it the text written in the description area for monsters with no effect(s)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpeejajo Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 What is flavor text? Is it the text written in the description area for monsters with no effect(s)? Yup that's exactly what it is. It's up to the people rating it to decide what to rate it on. Some people rate effects and others love flavour text. I personally hate normal monsters.

Bloodrun Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 ok well yes you have your opinion, but this forum is to help the site, not help prove your point that creativity is better, and if you cant handle how to make an effect monster, then should you be complaining about there being to many?

Professor Cobra Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I see your point. A simple want, like this, won't stop them. There is way too many on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, I suggest you PM whoever is annoying you so much, as threads like this often go ignored by their target audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
