seattleite Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Results posted! I offered my critiques and what I liked, and your score (/10) [spoiler=ArchmageCarn] "The world of spirits holds true power and understanding, and I have tasted it. I wish for more. " Simple but profound. Interesting use of First person. Text seems to go well with the name and pic. However it conveys only a lust for power as its message (IMO, kind of cliche) with not much powerful vocabulary or elaboration. 8.5/10 [/spoiler] [spoiler=momobeast] "A magician who has the power of 100 spellcasters know he has been unbeateble for centuries.Know travels the world in hopes of finding a true opponnent...." I shouldn't have to grade on grammar and spelling but this was pretty hard to read so the message was lost. Legendary spell-casters have been used before, although I like "power of 100 spellcasters" - it's an interesting phrase. 5/10 [/spoiler] [spoiler=Yen] "For centuries the arts that accessed the hellish realms of fiends and spirits was forgotten. When such corrupt forces were finally able to cross between worlds once again, they had not expected to see such a powerful magician waiting. Out of the frying pan and into the fire; though such dark creatures may roam once more, it is only so this legendary magician can slay them. " I don't give extra points for long text, but I have to say this was nice description. Offers good background story, and gives the card a personality and a "purpose" so to speak. The use of the saying "out of the frying pan" was very well-placed and I commend you for that. VERY well agrees with the Name + Picture Last sentence is just slightly confusing, since it would translate the creatures exist only for slaying. I know that wasn't your intention but it was phrased that way. Also a Semicolon and a Comma is a little bulky, but overall very good. 9.3/10 [/spoiler] [spoiler=Qu@ke] "A very powerful student of magic who wonders this vast world looking for secret knowledge that others would never believe existed. He aims to know every magical spell that was ever made. " Powerful words in the first sentence. I think you could expand on the description, and some words would place a better meaning ("would" change to "could, "He aims" change to "His goal is.." or something similar). Text goes well with the name, considering "Occult" can be interpreted as "Hidden". Mostly nice. 9/10 [/spoiler] [spoiler= HiroMax] "A Spellcaster student who was kicked out of the academy. For centuries, he has been roaming the Earth, looking for an equal. The only opponent know to be his equal is Dark Magician. " First sentence is too vague. "A spellcaster student" could be anyone, even a weak student. "The academy" ---> what academy? Why was he kicked out? Second and Third Sentences conflict. He's looking for an equal, yet he already has one, Dark Magician. Also somewhat random jump from an Academy to "roaming the Earth". 6/10 [/spoiler] [b]2nd round will start soon, with a new card. If you want to drop out just tell me, otherwise I will presume you are staying.[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seattleite Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Yen won the first round and got 1 rep + 500 points. 2nd round has started, and a new card has been added in the OP.
