I know it won't count for card fail of this year, but this card went from 1,000 plus value to 50 roughly, but the majority seems things like ' Most Popular' is 9003 and especially card event of the year is when Luna passed Koem
My epic, and unfortunate card for for next year: https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 0/season=2
If you want to send me any cards, best if you send it to this one, Holland DS6, I just need more bank on this account if I want to upgrade the limit, but I just keep wanting to buy cards worth more, cards I like or cards for a collection that I am working on, I already had a lot of cards in the catagory, so mind as well make it an official collection that I could possibly already complete. I try not to break the rules, so if I do it by accident, please just tell me mods, although it would have to be through the TG only for mods, like Ransium had to due to class region. I didn't really check for spellings, so it may be a little unclear, sorry. :P More in my factbook on card+gifts.
Finally getting my own card soon!

My first reaction is let's wait until next year to delve into this, but now that you've brought up... yes, that's a big fail but it's such a dinky card held by so few players. I think the big fail for 2021 so far is Noahs Second Country. https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 6/season=2
That card has taken a beating in the last month (losing over 95% MV), especially for a former #1 card having 257 cards currently in existence (many created by TCALS abuse). But there's still 10 months in 2021 for cards like these to resurrect themselves. Enough said.

Winners
Thank you to everyone who nominated and voted! The results are in. Click each spoiler to see who won the big shiny award (runner ups are listed in parentheses). If you want a higher quality image of the award, I can provide one.

Individual Awards

Image
In a close race, Koem Kab wins the category for Best Overall! Their dominance is simply unrivaled! (Runner up: Noah’s Second Country)

Image
In another very close race, Witchcraft and Sorcery is the best new face to the card scene! (Runner ups: Noah’s Second Country, Vylixan)

Image
The recently commended r3n has been decided as the hero of the year! Considering their generosity, technical contributions, and general community presence this comes as no surprise! (Runner up: Luna Amore)

Image
Koem Kab snags another award. There’s a reason why KK was the first condemned card player! (Runner up: Giovanniland)

Image
Racoda wins this category in a landslide. Nearly every trader has used or still uses tools created by Racoda! (Runner up: r3n)

Image
Besides bidding on every common, 9003 has hosted community events, is a member of Cards Guild leadership, and so on! As a result, 9003 is the most popular trader in the community! (Runner up: Noah’s Second Country, Praeceps)


Other Awards

Image
Apparently NationStates Cards is a big fan of Naughty Slave Girls! I don’t have much to say here…(Runner up: 9003 S1)

Image
Every Animated Card was one of the earliest completed collections of season 2. Who doesn’t enjoy a nice gif flag? (Runner up: Second Best Card Collection)

Image
Luna Amore passing Koem Kab was the biggest event this year! Will Koem Kab ever be passed again? (Runner up: Never ending auction)

ImageImage
It’s a tie between 99:99:99 and 9003 junking a legendary card! The timer rolling over was quite humorous, but what beats the pain of junking a nice legendary card?

Image
The Monthly Snapshot is the most professionally produced publication in cards, with great reads and analyses from across the community! (Runner ups: Card News, The auction that lasted forever)

Image
Racoda and Valentine Z’s gold retrievers are critical for puppet management, transfers, and tracking packs!


Absolutely Amazing, Alliterative, and Acclaimed Accolades

Image
Leto II Atreides has done some strange and mysterious things… who are they, and why??? (Runner up: Noah’s Second Country)

Image
Koem Kab has too much money, being one of two traders to trade at the maximum value of 10000, and of course sitting at first on the leaderboards! (Runner up: Frisbeeteria)

Image
The North Pacific Cards Guild is the largest and oldest card organization in NationStates! The charismatic, handsome, intelligent guildmasters must be the reason behind this place being so irresistible! (Runner up: Card Gardens)

Image
Every single inflated common card! Thanks a lot Gio :P (Runner up: 9003 S1)
