Finding Players (Recruitment)Look for players for chatroom, play-by-post, or even real-life games here. Threads will expire after 3 months, so be sure to move important information to your OOC thread.
So, I've seen Yu-Gi-Oh! PbP, does anyone want to try a MtG card battle?
We can use WotC's database to look up cards, just run Type 1 (Legacy) Format, and play a few games, eh?

This will likely be slow, but it should give a good challenge. Provided that no turn one victory decks are used, this should be fun. I'll start drafting a control deck and a black general purpose deck.

So how does this work? I mean, how are games played via post?
Yes, its PbP, and you roll dice for your card draws, then compare them to your deck. I'll put up 10 cards in my deck for an example.
Draw 3 cards. (1d10)[2](1d9)[3](1d8)[2]
1. Back to Nature
2. Exoskeletal Armor
3. Marble Chalice
4. Powder Keg
5. Sky Hussar
6. Crossbow Infantry
7. Orzhov Guildmage
8. Elixir Of Immortality
9. Fruition
10. Paladin of Prahv
First draw was 2, so I take Exoskeletal Armor, then strike it out. Next card was a 3, so the 3rd card down in the list is Powder Keg, since Exoskeletal Armor is in my hand. Then last card was another 2, making it Marble Chalice, for the same reason.

Okay, if people are doing this... I made this deck up in five minutes, and it's not tested, but it should work, I hope. Happy Fun Times Deck! {Legacy} (please don't look at the decklist if you plan to play me, obviously.)

I will play you. I will post my deck in the IC thread, as I can not get to it at the moment.

I'm up for this, though are we using our RL decks or are we constructing fake/online decks?
I believe people are making decks they do not have all the cards for IRL, mostly since it'd be unenforceable if we were using RL decks. [For instance, I don't have all the cards in the deck I just posted...]

A deck can have any number of cards greater than or equal to 60. If you use a sideboard, it must be exactly 15 cards.
(Otherwise, Battle of Wits wouldn't work.)

Still open to any challenges for my Green/White deck!

Anything is possible really, its just as you add more players, you add more posts, and PbP is inherently slow to begin with.

I'm considering making up decks for something like what a few people did over on the Yugioh PbP - set of seven decks or so, the active one takes one challenge at a time until someone wins, then the next one becomes active. With a twist, though - a special rule for each one, such as "Howling Mine in effect" or "Furnace of Rath in effect" or "Players untap their permanents at the beginning of each phase" or something.
Who would be interested in that if I set it up? [In going up against the decks like that, that is?]
