There isn't an issue really, and as far as I know people can't delete posts if they're not the last one anymore.

Anyways, congratulations! I'll get to editing this and some other changes within this week.

After a week of hiatus, regular updates are now back! Seanat's Anime and Pokémon collection has been moved to the Volume Collections part after they started collecting Season 2 flags, which certainly increased its size. Panagouge's nice achievement of collecting all animated cards has also been noted, and it is now listed together with Recuecn and Big Shot, the other collectors with complete collections of this theme. Last but not least, a review of all collections was done, and some descriptions changed, for example the fact that Fhaengshia's Season 2 Delegates collection has now been successfully moved to a puppet and thus the collection link was updated here as well.

I hope that someday one of my collections will make it on to the list
Any requirements I should know about?

Next to the requirements in the first post in this topic I would pick a theme that is not yet present in the existing collections. I see you have started a lot of collections that already have a decent collection in here. For some of those it is doable to collect a bigger collection, for others that is very hard, especially if there is a good mix of S1 and S2 cards in it since S1 cards are much harder to get.

For example, your collection "The Corporate World” is very small compared to the collection in here https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/collection=36932 . One tactic could be to collect all the cards in that collection, and get a bigger collection going. This is an option, but takes time, effort and money.

The collection also needs to have a decent size relative to the amount of cards that could possibly fit into the collection. So for an animal card themed for example collection I would say over 100 cards at least, there is no hard rule here though.

Another option is to look at the Boneyard collections, set up a collection where you mirror, or even extend one of those collections, and hope the owner doesn't return.

Was never gonna do 'The Corporate World' cause there is already two quite similar collections in the main post and in the boneyard.
Also I only buy cards I like the look of so Ima chose a one of my collections that is very different to the existing collections in the post

Your giraffe collection is a nice idea, once it grows bigger in size it can be added here. Good luck collecting!

In other news, Aerilia has been added to the list of complete legendary collection after finishing theirs. Congratulations to them!

Did you go through all the cards with user uploaded flags to check for giraffe flags, or just nations with giraffe in the name?

I´d say, there are not many of them in the game, regarding that in two years of playing I didn´t see more than one or two of them, if I remember correctly...

That is unfortunate, sadly it seems that theme in fact does not have many cards in the current season. However, I was looking through your other collections and the Australian flags one has a more than enough size to be included, and since we didn't have one in the thread yet, I've went ahead and included it.

Hey there! Don't know if someone's done this before, but I'd like to submit my Volcanoes collection. It's currently consisting of 10 cards, but there's more to come I hope.

You could always just look at the list of collections to see if someone has done it before

I really like this collection, added into the Nature subcategory.

As far as I know, this theme hasn't been done before, so you're good. It's creative, though I'm afraid it's a little too small in size, in comparison to the average collection size here. I'm not sure if there are many other cards representing volcanoes since it's a niche theme, though I did just have an idea, perhaps collect both volcanoes and mountains in general? That way I could see there being more cards.

I seem to remember someone started collecting and looking for "volcanoes/volcano-related cards" when season one was running, and I´m pretty sure, he had much more than ten cards in his/her collection, when I visited it (long, long time ago)...
I can´t remember, who it was, but I can remember that he/she also posted on the "trading cards forum", that he/she were seeking those cards; maybe this post could be found with a little effort.

Is it possibly this one https://www.nationstates.net/page=deck/ ... he_volcano which seems to be a puppet of Rain Delay?
