Looks like the answer was no. *sigh* some other day....

That's interesting, Drek.

I dunno. Multiple victory conditions are still multiples...^_~

I still like the idea, a whole lot. In fact, I'm going to try to write out some rules along those lines now.

The postcount idea, for instance, is an interesting one.
But what could represent the postcount?

Two ideas come to mind. These are two completely different ideas I'm throwing out here.

Firstly, you win if you deck yourself out. By which I mean, there are no cards left in your deck when you have to draw.


Secondly, there is an area on the field that represents the postcount. You can play cards there if you pay willpower equal to the card you send there's insanity. If you can fill that with area with cards, you win. The number of cards needed in the postcount area I have not decided on yet.

That which holds the image of an angel...

When I read the first one, I thought I was reading it wrong. I kinda like it...

It's sorta the opposite of the traditional idea... it's when YOU run out of cards, YOU win. :P

Crazy eights.
About the only card game I play.

I think that was also true for Snap.
I'm pretty sure WAR was if you got ALL the cards, though.

Yar.

There was no edit...

Crazy Eights and those sorts of games were a little different. You don't have a deck, just a hand...

Never played any of those games, myself....

So, you all like the first suggestion? Okay, that's good.

Next up for discussion: Phases of play!

Uh... example?

You mean like... uh...

Beginning game draw phase: Everyone selects their main avatar or something, places it on the field, etc. Then each player draws X number of cards to begin with, and somehow decides who goes first?

...or am I completely wrong?
Dr. Wiley has surrendered. Mega Man has saved the planet from destruction. But will it last!!!

No, no...I mean like this:(Example, as per usual, from Yugioh)

Phases of a players turn go like this

Draw Phase: Player draws a card
Standby Phase: Only really used for card effects
Main Phase 1: Player can play cards to the field
Battle Phase: Player attacks with monsters
Main Phase 2: Player can play cards to the field
End Phase: Player discards from hand until s/he has 6 or less cards.

on which step do players scream about how powerful they are and how such and such a card is unbeatab;e and how it can only be defeated by just the right combination which the other player ironically has in their hand?

Standby phase.

And yeah, that's what I meant, kinda. But I was detailing the *first* phase of the game.

...sorta...

...okay, now I see how they're different. But they are pretty similar, you have to admit.

Or maybe I need food.

It's okay, they bend the rules a lot.

And I'm thinking we should not have a thing where you discard cards until you have X amount in your hand as a norma phase rule. But... that rule's probably there for a reason that I just don't see, and if we don't have that rule, it's going to bite me in the butt and everybody will hate me until the next comic is up and then everybody will forget that they hate me and I'll change the rule when nobody's looking.

I... need to calm down.
