Eh. I can see the appeal in getting notified when you're outbid, but I'm not sure it'd help to automate any more of the cards game. Card-trading is very much about being smart in watching your bids; that's just part of the game! At least if someone designs a custom script to do it, they're putting i...

I like the idea! It'd have to be an official Easter-Egg issue to work, though, at least with a talking monkey and stuff. I'd drop options 6 and 7 — I feel like they maybe exist more because "Easter Egg issues have lots of options" than because they contribute anything. The sixth is a healt...

Unintelligent villains always get to me. When your villain is inept enough to ⋅ leave the hero in a cage ⋅ leave the hero dangling over a pool of sharks ⋅ explain their entire plan, including the Very Important Weaknesses ⋅ tie the hero up without checking the...

Just to be sure, right now I'm eligible to get the no e and st patrick ones right? You forgot to replace some e's in "east e r" and "g e t"… I think other than that, though, you're s3t, provided I didn't miss any other e's. ;) Your chances for the St. Patrick's Day one might be ...

Thanks for your reply! That's correct — two of those Legendaries wouldn't get counted. And keep in mind that having those two Epics would require you have quite a few Commons/Uncommons/etc. too!

In my time on NS, I’ve seen a lot of people suggest games to be played with the trading cards. The thing is, the ideas always revolve around modifying Pokémon or Yu-Gi-Oh! or Magic, and NS cards just don’t fit those, thematically or content-wise. I’ve come up with a ten-minute game that uses NS card...

I know you weren't asking me, but I got that one too — I think it was after I switched to being an anarchic-style nation, so the existing theories surrounding crime probably have a point. Try maximising freedoms and stuff — I know I got into the top 1% for crime for a while. Ooh, that's interesting...

This is the one Easter Egg I've never been able to get (even after CTE), so thanks for the info on putting Zombie/Brains in custom fields. Just changed my pre-title to "Zombie" and put "Brains" in all other custom fields. So...fingers crossed!?!?! do you remember how did you get...

Guess i'm just ublucky as usual Gio got it without CTEING. but he claim it had everything to do with having joined the zombie during the halloween event. and a friend just told me they put zombie in pre-title, and brains in all fields, and that worked for them Hello! To get it, so far there's two d...

For issue number 625, there are 11 possible answers according to http://www.mwq.dds.nl/ns/results/625.html . Is this the only issue like that? I just noticed the amount of answers for this one because my api script was throwing errors due to its inability to handle answer IDs >=10. If this is the o...

No, you did nothing wrong. I still did not receive on any nation I'm waiting until the end of december, where' I,ll set my currency to brains, my leader of Zombie something and my pre-title to zombie. Guess i'm just ublucky as usual I don't think the "Zombie" pretitle/leader/other-custom-...

You're not going to get an answer to "is there a chance of my unspecified feature being added to the game", because no-one knows what it is. The only thing currently planned for Cards that I'm aware of is Season 3, but that doesn't mean that other changes aren't possible. All right, that'...

Drew Durrnil has a point — in past seasons, the Founder badge has guaranteed Uncommon rarity or higher.

Hello — I just have a quick query I was hoping an admin could answer. I've got an idea for a pretty quick game that could be played with NS cards, and I'm thinking about floating it in the Trading Cards forum. If the idea received enough support and was feasibly codeable, would there be a chance of ...

Could I buy this one…

(The standing bid from Universal Compliance is mine.)

The question is, does the average NS player, not just the couple dozen cards power players with novelty puppet collections. Were I a new player and I opened a pack of cards where it's five numbered card farms with default flags, I would probably say the minigame isn't really all that interesting. P...

What if instead of it being another button, it were part of the url? Like the page could be "https://www.nationstates.net/page=create_nation/nation=puppet" or something, and that would lead to the exact same dialogue but with a puppet label added automatically. It could even be turn-off-able in settings later for if you really wanted the label removed or something. True, it wouldn't be easily enforceable, but would it have to be? It could just be a courtesy used by card farmers to help out recruiting regions…

I'm with TUMS on this one — puppet cards are fun! Even if there're kinda a lot of them…

There are more reasons to do kind things than just to get recognition for it. I don't see the need to be critical about something like that, especi...

I haven't seen this thread in a while. Anyway, I've decided to start collecting cards. Again (I was Antibuda before). So, I've started a collection of cards with diagonal lines on them, such as my flag. I only have 5 so far, but I started this 5 minutes ago. Link That's a cool collection idea! :) J...

My best guess is an hour, given that that's how long an auction lasts (barring a bidding war). However, I may be wrong, and they may sell the card back and forth to extend the duration of the event. Actually, pull events can last quite a while. While simple auctions do last an hour, the mechanics o...

Not a mod, but there is already a thread for this: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=483155

THANKS!!!!!

You can never change it now!

This seems more like a Moderation question; you might get more concrete answers over there.
(My personal guess is that you'd have to resign.)

Many thanks for the gifts; I very much appreciate them! It's kind of you to do this.
