Ace In The Hole by .thatskarobot

INSTRUCTIONS: Create a deck of playing cards featuring real-world desires, actions, people, objects, feelings, laws, or anything else. Use the deck by playing appropriate cards in appropriate situations in your real life.

i've actually been working on a TCG based on my old highschool theatre, I've made plenty of cards already, and it is rally fun pulling them out and making fun of people with them. The rules are based on MTG, but they're changed up a bit to make them more, theatre-y. Resources are divided up between equipment and location. Shows are kind of like world enchantments, or whatever you call them. It's been years since I played MTG. The creature cards are techies and actors, and you can have one of them be your "Lead", enabling a special ability on some cards, the only catch is you can only have one "Lead" at a time. Tools are artifacts. Otherwsie, it's pretty straight forward. Here is about half of the cards I've made over the past few months, I make them on whim, every now and then.

thats REALLY NICE work, but that aside, this project wasn't for SF0 and is at best only loosely related to the task at hand...

very nice though

there is a task that allows you to make a TCG

I am a bit confused on your flagging...
"Create a deck of playing cards featuring real-world desires, actions, people, objects, feelings, laws, or anything else. Use the deck by playing appropriate cards in appropriate situations in your real life."
Everything in the deck is based on real-world things.
People, objects, anything else.
Perhaps some documentation of me using the deck in real life would suffice?
Maybe the rest of the cards? I haven't counted them in a while, but it's close to 50 if I remember correctly.

I understand the part about this not originally being for sf0, but it's been an ongoing work of mine for a few months now.

there was a little more to the task than just creating a deck of playing cards, which you had already done (i.e. "not originally ... for sf0"). there's also the 2nd part of your quote "Use the deck in appropriate situations....."

"Perhaps some documentation of me using the deck in real life would suffice?" I think that was the point of the task to some degree.

I stand by my flagging.

i will agree that using non sf0 related projects to "satisfy" a certain task completion is distateful to me. But you have made some very nice cards

All theaters are haunted. It's in the zoning laws.

Vote for home made Magic cards revolving around theatre. Oddly enough, my old Deck Manager and I made a whole deck of these featuring OUR techies and OUR theatre. MTG was a way of life. Major props.
