 AAAAHHHHOOOOOEEEEEEE!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHHHOOOOEEEEEEEEE!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

 And...it hath been done. The thread hath returned from beyond the grave, necromanced back to life.

 Now...I must rest.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Seriously dude, if you want to bring a thread back, post something worth while.

Just saying "I bring it back" isn't going to do much.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 I'm putting this here until I can think of something worthwhile...

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Ah, yes! Found out what usefulness I wanted to post!

This here link!

Boo-yah!

[Zaleramancer]

I thought I posted that already.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Ah. So you did.

Regardless: it is useful.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I've been thinking. Zale, what all do we need to get this game up and running again?

[Zaleramancer]

Rules, Cards, A Means By Which To Play.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I mean, what remains to be done, of our checklist?

[Zaleramancer]

All of that.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Oh, dear.

So, the rules I gave at first aren't sufficient?

[Zaleramancer]

No.

There's still the issue of cost to play cards. It should be harder to summon the Kind of Djinni than a Common Bottle Fairy.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Hm. You're right.

We can go through Warriors of Myth Wiki, if you want. Of course, not all at once, but little by little, we can determine what creatures/races we want to have in the game, and assign proper costs, HP, PP, etc to each of them.

[Zaleramancer]

First, we need to lay down ground rules.

What exactly is the cost? Mana? Power? Other Cards?

If it's some type of Mana or Power, how does one acquire it?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

What do you think it should be? I've never played card games like these before. I have very elementary knowledge of them.

Have you played numerous card games? If so, which format did you prefer best?

[Zaleramancer]

Hmm.

Honestly, elementally aligned Mana is probably the easiest choice.

How many elements do you have up on the wiki?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Earth, Water, Fire, Wind/Air, Ice, Plant, Poison, Light, Darkness, Lightning, Death, Sleep/Dream/Nightmare.

And I was thinking of adding a couple, like maybe Metal and Sand as subsets of Earth, Sound as a subset of Wind/Air, Luck/Fate/Fortune, maybe incorporating Sleep/Dream/Nightmare into an element like Mind/Spirit/Psychic, and perhaps changing Death into Life/Death/Blood.

[Zaleramancer]

Then those can be our elements.

Should we use Elemental Rock Paper Scissors?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Yeah, sure. Sounds fun to me.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Oh, and I read that article. Do you think we should add Time and Gravity and Aether/Quintessence/Divine Essence as Elements as well?
