I know what you're all thinking... It's the holiday season, the big day is coming close. Yes, it's almost that time you've been waiting for all year. Just thinking of all the kids, too excited to sleep because they know it's right around the corner... it brings a tear to my eye. That's right! It's Guy Fawkes Day! WOOOOOOOOOO!
This time, everyone gets 3 point cards and a free EXPLODING SPORE in honor of Guy Fawkes Day! Play from Monday, November 2nd to November 8th! Plus, four GRAND PRIZE winners get ANY RARITY 3 card of their choice!
Gowen is the last of the four spheres to be covered in the Counter to Guardian articles. So all four spheres have nowbeen represented. Check out all of our helpful strategies to better deck building on our Modified Card Files page.
Now that the Alteil Halloween costumes are all done, it's time for the non-Alteil related costumes!
Since this year Halloween falls on a Saturday a few of us showed up to work in our costumes. Lupos has been slowly acquiring the parts of his awesome Dee Snider (from Twisted Sister) costume, while AnnaTheRed and I decided this year to be splicers from the game Bioshock.
We have two Halloween styled avatars for sale in the shop. Purchase with gran or fight money and don a Pumpkinhead round the arenas. You can look just like the Pumpkins from Ogre Battle or just like Pumkinhead from that Pumpkinhead movie. You can find the Pumpkinhead under the hair button in the avatar shop. The other item is a Pumpkincat available as Moral Support. So go grab them now because they're only around to buy for the weekend.
Whoops, the pony express has sent out our notification late and our Card Flip Theater Caption Contest or CFTCC for short has slipped to Wednesday We made need to upgrade our postal service to mail by rail. In honor of our nation's most ghoulish day of celebration, we've putting up Halloween version Devouring Lizard and Vicious Raptor in a head to head, no holds barred, steel cage challenge!!! Actually... we're just asking you to make some funny dialogue for them. The usual rules apply...
Please
keep the comic to a single frame, although multiple frames will be
accepted, the goal is to create comedy with as little as possible.
Do
not modify the cards by adding things or drawing over them. You can
stretch, re-size, skew, and rotate for purposes of this contest though.
4 point cards will be awarded to the winner on Friday at noon, a week from today.
Just a quick note for those who may have realized that a week has gone
by without the new Challenge of the Fortnight. Since we're a bit
backlogged on judgment, we've decided to take a week or two to get
caught up. But don't despair. The next fortnight will likely come
sooner than one would expect, especially me. But enough about me trying
to judge. Here's the actual judgment of a challenge that took place too
many fortnights ago.
It's about time for a new Community Tournament based on the Arakis' Quest Contest. This one is AGI 3 cards ONLY. Now, this is the most restrictive limitation to date, so expect to see a lot of creativity to squeeze out combos under serious pressure. And if you want to sign up but don't have enough AGI 3 cards to make a deck without multi-sphereing, remember that many of your peers will have the same problem, so don't let it hold you back.
The tournament is on Saturday, October 31st at 1 PM EST. You can read the rules and sign up on the forum thread here.
As always, there will be prizes.
First prize is 50 Gran and 10 Point Cards
Second prize is 10 Point Cards
Runners Up get 2 Point Cards
Everyone who enters gets an additional 2 Point Card
It is upon us. The week of All Hallows. And to celebrate, we've rolled out our own interpretations of the famous Alteil card out. Check out our Art Gallery for the whole shebang. Then jump in the game and kick some butt with Lupos as Mercenary and Logress as Mermaid Soldier. It'll make winning that much sweeter. Winners to our costume and pumpkin carving contest will be announced shortly.
Remember, remember, the 5th of November...
