Since we found the 'Womble' thread being very active, we would like to know, if there are any other people collecting the numerous 'mass puppet' cards like the Yous, RSCAs, Card Farmers, XYZs, and others.
Also the raider/defender series, like Custodians, the moths, the 'tic-tac-toes' or others.
So we´ve started this thread as a place to offer or ask for such cards (if anyone is interested in), since they pop up in great numbers all the time, and we dont want to junk them automatically.

Great idea!

I would also like to invite you to the Discord which has a lot more activity and its much easier to get in contact with someone to get their card.

We´ve got a whole bunch of such cards to sell : https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/collection=48284

I've always thought it would be neat of someone to collect all of the Queen's States.

What should I do to numbered puppet cards I get?
I've obtained an RSCA card.

If no one buys it, I will junk it because I don't collect those cards.

Well, that is, what most people do, I guess; but I´m also pretty sure, that a lot of people would be glad to sell such cards for a very low price, if there would be a collector for them. And why not collecting those cards ? A complete collection of numbered puppets (like, let´s say, Wombles, RSCAs, Yous or whatever) is as good as any other collection, I´d say. Especially since all the time some new players asking for ideas for collections...

I collect a number of those, as part of collections, or as separate collections

On Vylixan Ares I collect all MT Army cards

On Vylixan Asteria I collect all Zulankan Outpost cards in this collection, the Gaeslan cards in this collection and Revolutionary Worker Council cards are part of the communist cards collection

I also collect all card with NPO flags on them here and many series with Animals, Anime or Food on them on Vylixan Artemis, Vylixan Kinoumena , Vylixan Demeter

So the 'Custodians' and others are actually 'MT Armies' ? Interesting but a little confusing.

Are you sure about this collection ? We always thought, that Gaeslan cards look like this https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 4/season=2

If it has MT Army in the motto it's 99% sure an MT army card.

This is a proper Gaeslan card https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 1/season=2, all are afaik puppets of this CTE nation https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 4/season=2, some just have the wrong flag applied.

I junked lots of Revolutionary Worker Council, Benevolent # and Guard # because I didn't know that there are collectors willing to buy.

I have Card Farmer 379 and KCCCP 270. I’ll ask.02 for each. Just know that if I end up needing the room in a few days, they’ll be among the first cards I junk. But if someone else can use them, rather they end up there than in the trash.

Edit: KCCCP 270 was bought.

I have a lamp post LVI if anyone wants it https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... 6/season=2

I'm selling a rare S1 The Workers State of Zulankan Outpost 11
https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/card=1262858/season=1

New puppet ones I have are Sworld 1-8 and 63-2, as well as Comrade 029. Asking .02 for the Sworlds and .12 for Comrade, since it's a rare. Not sure if Gato XV is a puppet account or just happens to have a puppetish name, but I listed it for .02 just in case it was up anyone's alley.

If you want these, you may want to move fast. Starting to run low in space again so most of these cards will be first up on the junking block.

Hustler I know you’re a no-puppet guy so I’d recco two things:

A) becoming a site supporter will increase your card capacity (and help our favorite website) and…
B) this might be totally known to you already, but your card capacity only applies to opening new packs. You can buy as many cards as you want, you just won’t be able to draw new cards. Speakibg from my limited, single puppet experience: I don’t get a lot of extra bank from card pulls. Other strategies are far more effective, I’ve found.

This was unknown to me, and while I normally balk at dropping cash on a website, for $2.99 and given the amount of entertainment this place gave me both nowadays and back in 2006 when I was on with some friends in college, why not? Went ahead and did it. I wonder if it doubles from where you are now? If so, I guess I am at 500, which means I won't cap anytime soon. Thanks for pointing it out!

That being said, when you have no puppets, you need packs. The two Legendaries I have gotten from them combined to sell for 37.03, which is a significant percentage of all the bank I've ever had. Epics, ultrarares and rares being junked also help mitigate my perpetual cash-strapped situation. That being said, I don't see me buying any more expansions to my card storage. They became prohibitively expensive, and most of my collection is still cards that usually only sell for a few cents a copy.

Edit: I am indeed at 500. So not hitting that line anytime soon.

No; when you´re a site supporter (whenever you get the message from site admin and the badge), your storage capacity is doubled (which means, you now have space for 1000 cards and your next expansion comes when you reach 1000, but will cost you only the price for 550 cards).
Also, why dont you junk cards, if you dont get or expect to get a good price for them on the market ?
We´ll have look at your storage to see, if we could find anything of use to us >:-))

As a suggestion, you should be able to sell your unopened packs for money.

No, I'm at 500 now because I was at 250 prior to getting the supporter. Which is more than enough, I was only barely butting against the 250 line.

I do junk cards frequently, but my preference is to leave them out unless I have urgent need for the money; you never know when one will randomly have some huge bid. I sold a 1.90 or so card for 2.15 the other day, and another card around that range for .66 when both of them cost like .05 or .08 to buy. That's also why I make a point to buy cards worth around 2-8 bank if they're priced at or below .1, since the ones that randomly sell for outsized amounts more than pay for those that I take a tiny loss on.

Hey, anything you want that doesn't have an ask, let me know. I may not say yes depending on your price, but we have not because we ask not.

It would be good to know who collects these types of card. It would be easy to know what to do with them instead of junking them.
