agame, you have been by far the most active individual on these threads concerning application progression..so for you. information about what the app will entail has briefly been covered. Battle, trade, information, personal collection(virtual, based on physical), forum, and an upload..which has been by far the most annoying function/aspect to have to deal with...as said before current means of uploading your real physical cards...is by Manually inputting everything from name,code, energy, and stat...generic prints are provided, which include; picture(in case of promo copies{user select}), elements, mugic, ect. At this point in time...we must simply assume legitimacy, right now,it is no issue, because what has been done is available to us, and us alone...We can not Stress enough, fairness...when time comes, please, please be fair, and use your own and accurate collection..if we feel the need(or a code is used multiple times) or a compliant is made, a vetting process will be undertaken, and players not willing to prove legit ownership of their physical cards, will either A) have said virtual copy in question removed/deleted..or B) a removal of user(s) account, if necessary, C) in the case of a trade..we all know computers are quite good at logging information, and falsifications can be followed back to the point of origin..which brings us back to A/B.
it has been stated by you, agame, that only die hard fans come here..if this is true...you (all fans, hopefully) will not compromise this or anyother aspect of the game. user experience, for everyone, in particular, possible new players to the game will be much more enjoyable, if it is kept as fair and honest as possible.
vander, i am unsure what you mean in your 4th suggestion, please clarify. the rest are all great suggestions, thank you! however, a chaotic go is unrealistic at this point in time...at least it is with out the codex...we do Not want to recreate this..or else we may as well create a whole new game. which if we are being honest...would not be that difficult with the creativeness of this community...but back to the chaotic go..it is a good idea..but we cant do that.
i am editing this as i read it, so forgive this for being out of place, but please, continue playing on tco, both now and into the future, we wish not to compete...the more ways to play, the better...but do not hold your breath as much work still needs to be done before the next real release of anything is made... as several requests have been made, i feel i should no longer ignore this topic...it would be nice to have the next stage out before the new year but our beta will likely not be released publicly until sometime, hopefully early into it..time has been slipping through our hands faster then we realize.. for that we do owe you all an apology. so for whatever it may be worth to you, i am sorry.
Please enjoy your day/ night everyone!
