We are about half through this months games and the predictive scores have been scored. See the OP for the current leaders in each rarity.

Don't forget you still have until the end of the month!


Any penalties will be accounted for at the end of the games. If you haven't joined yet but still want to try you still can its not to late!


Epics and legendarily seems to be the easiest rarity to win right now but the commons are always dirt cheap!

Next months game will start half way though April something I noticed was lots of card activate happens at the start and end of the month (Thanks TNP!) but the middle of the month gets quite so we will set the games to then!

Thank you all for playing and may the best farmers win lots of free.

Make sure to check out this months awesome tool the puppet sheet located here:https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MZ-4GLWAZDgB1TDvwtssEcVKHKunOKi3l90Jof1pBB4/edit#gid=198322811

And you can submit your puppets to be added here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/16t4mlYuSU5p0U9hVkvzKMqP1GRnpdDV7nLNLA9WdFTs/viewform?chromeless=1&edit_requested=true


and if you have Greesemonkey/Tampermonkey and want to have it auto add who owns a given puppet right next to their name (Super useful in cards!!!!) check this out here: https://gist.github.com/dithpri/6a3fb524e59755510b18e676039b16d2/raw/main_auction_displayer.user.js (made by Racoda)

The games will close at the start of today's major update. I can do the leg work if you have trades after they will not count. So make sure you get your last minute trades in you have just a few more hours!

The results are in! As well as I am sending out prizes now!

The big names I want to share are the incredible work of Ransium who manged to collect 202 Epics.

I hope you all had fun and be on the look out for the 3rd games. The start date will come out later but I can tell you that I REALLLLLLLLY like the old card frame and I don't know about you but I think seeing a bunch on 10 puppets may or may not be the next game but who knows! In the mean time happy farming!

Check the OP for winners and what prizes they won

Congrats Dr Hooves (or should I call you Mara Jade-Skywalker?) on winning in the commons category!

You're lucky I got distracted with SecGen elections :p

Yay! Thanks for the prize 9003. I'm glad to get Luna: it's a bit ironic since I pulled Luna on an olympic puppet and considered selling him to ensure victory (Spitfire had enough bank to pass me at the end, I think) but I decided I'd rather keep the card since I probably wouldn't win it back. But now I have two! Yay!

It seems appropriate that Ransium won a frisbeeteria card for collecting epics... ;)

I was going to say that it also seems like 90-100 bank was sort of the limit for collecting cards, assuming that commons and URs didn't quite hit their full potential: (Commons at about 50 bank and URs about 80)

9 legendaries at $10 each, plus leftover bank = 95
202 epics at .51 each = 103.02
918 rares at .1 each = 91.8

But then gio proved me wrong collecting almost $150 in uncommons.

Congrats for all the winners, and thanks for the event! It was fun, I really loved the game!

Recuecn wrote:URs didn't quite hit their full potential

I'm sorry, i solved every single issue what was given (never been on 5 - except when i created my nations; first i did the design things).
I turned every single bit of Bank into UR. True, I should try and promote some anime cards instead of junking them straight away; but I just had an affair when I posted in the anime topic and they said 0.15 is too much, they buy for 0.05, so i decided to just junk them instead. Otherwise i sold what i could, or even promote some 1 owner cards on the forum. Sadly I only pulled 1 legendary which i could sell at 16.80 Bank, but also true; i could have been more greedier on that.

I think I did my best, just feeling a bit sad now that you think it was not enough.

Anyway, it was fun, and lets meet on the next Olympics! I'll try to be better next time!^


Cheers all, and be safe!

Congrats to all the winners and thanks to 9003 for putting this on. Lol, who would have thought you could use Fris to get a Fris?

You shouldn't feel bad, if I hadn't gotten 2 legs worth about 35 MV in the last few days the MV of my epics would have been below what you achieve in URs.

Congrats to all winners, including me! This was incredibly fun to do, and although I didn't win the top prize, it does fit that the nation collecting epics would get the Fris card. :)

I'm looking for another olympics! A question though: if we clear those puppets of every single card and bank, can we use them for the next olympics?

But we can't be sure what will be the theme/goal of the next olympics.
The first one was about the fastest time of solving issues (on any nations).

If they are 100% clear yes you can use them again for a similar event where we collect as many cards as possabile however, for my own sanity and scoring purposes I would rather you use new puppets.

As for the next games (the 3rd and 4th) I already hinted at what they may be!


As for down the road not the next games I hope you enjoy riddles and fun! I sure love writing scavenger hunts.

You just have to read between the lines a bit. If you can't figure it out well you'll just have to wait no one gets an advantage anyway for knowing early.

Thanks for hosting the games and the card. And thanks to the elections for distracting Racoda.

Now I have the fun task of getting rid of all 4000 common cards.

I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to offend you! Obviously you did great! I was just trying to look at how much each collection was worth total, I wasn't trying to single anyone out. I know I got some fortunate pulls to help me, so it probably depends more on luck than anything else.

Sorry to come across so insulting! I swear it was a misunderstanding
