AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 [spoiler='Requirements for joining']Just post that you're joining. You'll need to pay 50 points. I'm also accepting judges (2 or 3 is preferred). I'll only accept you if I know for a fact that you're good at this game and can do this well. Preferably big names in TCG, but that might be asking for too much. Still, it'd be nice. Judges don't have to pay points. Hopefully I can get everyone I need (at least 6 people) by August 24th. Once I get everyone, I will wait until either I get a card from everyone or until September before sending them to the judges. (If a judge corrects your OCG and it turns out to be more than one sentence, I'll ask you to redo the effect. Don't worry, I'll wait. But you should make it snappy since I'm not the only one waiting. Alternate Wins aren't allowed. It'd be bad for the game and probably broken. Especially if it's in the form of a single sentence. Note: [b][u]Do not post your card here. PM it to me. If you want to edit your card, then PM the edited version.[/u][/b][/spoiler] [spoiler='Wat do']You will be making a card that, in its text box, has only one sentence. If you're making a Fusion, Ritual, Synchro, or Xyz monster, then the requirements (such as 2 Level 4 monsters) does not count. In other words: Alligator's Sword Dragon would be allowed if it weren't already a Yu-Gi-Oh card. This, unfortunately, means that Normal Monsters Cards are prohibited from being in this contest since their lore is just some flavor text. Written cards are allowed and encouraged. I would rather see Written Cards than cards with terribad/overused artwork. But actual cards are ok too.[/spoiler] [spoiler='The spoils of winning']The winner shall be picked from the judges, who will hopefully agree to use the same judging criteria so I don't get confused. You get all the points I get from this contest +100 because I don't like to have points. You will also get a Like from all the other contestants.[/spoiler] [spoiler='Everyone']Members: 1:Thor the Just 2:Striker 3:Newhat 4:Grapha Demon Lord of Sexy 5:Zanda Panda 6:Beginning446 7.Exaenae Judges: 1:Archbaron Serenade 2:X-Neo (Just a reminder that there can be more than 6 members. [b]No more members can join.[/b] There can also be more than 2 judges.)[/spoiler] Did I forget anything? Also, if I seem to forget that this exists, then someone get my attention.

AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Ok. All five of you are in. Maybe if I get a judge or two, we can actually get through this faster than I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted August 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Well, this is just a reminder that it is the 24th. I'm just going to keep sign-ups open until midnight since I didn't specify when I would close them today. And even after sign-ups closes, judges can still join. By the looks of the cards I have received so far, I probably do need a judge. The members that haven't sent cards still have until September, same to those who already sent theirs but may want to change something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Knight Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 [font=georgia,serif][size=5][color=#B22222]Happy September![/color][/size][/font] Entry #1: [spoiler=’Alchemic Divinity H’] Rank 4/Spellcaster/XYZ/Effect/WATER 3 Level 4 monsters Once per turn: You can detach 1 XYZ Material from this card and banish 1 Spell Card in your hand: Add 1 Spell Card of the same type from your Deck to your hand. ATK: 2300/DEF: 1600 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 8/10 Can search for a more useful Spell but at a cost of both a Spell of the same type (which could sometimes be an obstacle] and one of its 3 materials. It’s not exactly what I’d call a beatstick so its field presence might not last long enough to use its effect multiple times. To sum it up, it’s a fair Spell searcher, not too powerful, decent enough drawbacks. [/spoiler] Entry #2: [spoiler=’Lord of the End’] LV 7/Fiend/Synchro/Effect/DARK 1 DARK Tuner + 1 non-Tuner monster When this card is Synchro Summoned: Banish all monsters in both players’ Graveyards. ATK: 2500/DEF: 1900 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 7/10 Though not very powerful for a Level 7 Synchro, that effect does seem a tad overpowered. It banishes from both player’s Graveyards, which may seem detrimental to you, but naturally in the right deck could be quite beneficial. With the Graveyard being so big in so many decks normally I’d say this would be overpowered, and yet it’s not as overpowered as I would’ve thought. Most decks that utilize the Graveyard do so during their turn exclusively, making this card relatively useless against those decks in question. For me, this brings it down to a slightly underpowered card in terms of handling the opponent, but could be used in some decks for quick advantages when messing with your own Graveyard. [/spoiler] Entry #3: [spoiler=’Majestic Mech Doryuu’] Level 8/Fairy/Monster/Effect/LIGHT The activation and effects of your Fairy-type monsters cannot be negated. ATK: 2700/DEF: 2000 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 7/10 I’m not sure but I don’t think this has much to do with “Majestic Mechs.” Easy to get out with Valhalla but the effect seems a little overpowered to me. Then again, it might actually give Fairies a fighting chance if it were real. Not bad but not particularly good either. Simple and to the point. [/spoiler] Entry #4: [spoiler=’Mindstorm’] Spell/Normal Special Summon 1 Psychic-Type monster from your Graveyard with ATK equal to or less [than] the combined ATK of all face-up monsters on the field. [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 8/10 Monster Reborn for Psychics. Although the drawback doesn’t seem like much, I can see that it could be a pain both early game, and if you happened to fall into a rut. Either way, I like it. [/spoiler] Entry #5: [spoiler=’Phoenix Mercurix’] LV 1/Winged-Beast/Monster/Tuner/EARTH A Synchro Monster that uses this card as a Tuner is treated as a Tuner monster and gains this effect. ATK: 0/ DEF: 2100 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 4/10 It can make any Synchro into a Tuner Synchro. That’s flat-out broken. [/spoiler] Entry # 6: [spoiler=’Tidal Amplifier] LV 3/Psychic/Monster/Effect/WATER If this card is detached from a WATER XYZ Monster and sent to the Graveyard: You can target 1 monster on the field; It gains 800 ATK until the End Phase. ATK: 1000/DEF: 1200 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 5/10 Not because it’s broken (as far as I can tell) but just because it’s just a basic support card for WATER XYZ’s. There’s really not much to say. [/spoiler] Entry #7: [spoiler=’Tron Bonne’] LV 6/Machine/Monster/Effect/EARTH When your opponent Special Summons one or more monsters: You can send 1 card from your field and 1 card from your Deck to the Graveyard; Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard. ATK: 2000/DEF: 3000 [/spoiler] [spoiler=’Rating’] 9/10 I like this card quite a lot, particularly for its “Foolish Burial” effect. It can recycle itself based on a game mechanic that IS required to succeed at the game, it has solid DEF, decent ATK, Machine support. It looks as though it would work well with Synchros and maybe even XYZ’s. There’s just something about the card that seems right, that despite everything I like about it there’s something keeping it from being overpowered (which is probably the mix between losing a card on your field and waiting for your opponent to trigger this).

AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW Posted September 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Well, you posting your rating here rather than PMing me back was a curveball for me, but oh well. Now we wait for the other judge. Nobody say who has which card until after that. Just 'cause. And once this is over, we can post the actual card versions for those that weren't originally written. Edit: Got the other judge to reply.

There’s really not much to say." "The detachment concept is rather nice, however a tone down to 500 would be much more applicable in my opinion as 500 is a good solid monster and if you want to detach then the 500 seems a bit more fair, than having an 800, as 200 can be a big difference. However it does have a fair bit of playability and for that I probably would use it if I still played. 7/10"[/spoiler] [spoiler='Miror'][img]http://i472.photobucket.com/albums/rr84/Metagross386/Yugioh/Contest/98392.jpg[/img] Rating: 9+7 (16/20=[b]8/10[/b]) "9/10 I like this card quite a lot, particularly for its “Foolish Burial” effect.

"I'm having presumptions that this is beginning game stuff?

Also, can anyone else see Striker's card? Because it's saying "Posted Image" right now. Edit: It seems to be fixed now. So, I guess we know who won this.
