Yes yes it does.^_^
And as much as i would love to I'm playing an FPS at the moment and trying not to get my rear end handed to me

[Krein]

Hm. Alright, feel free to PM me once you're done and want to duel!

Randomly i think ive dueled you on DN keyblade - my user name is : Thinder Dwarf

[Krein]

I just got the YGO Pro android app for my phone. I must say, it's awesome! Just finished my first duel, had to go up against a Six Samurai deck. My Steelswarms beat them by a long shot.

I also joined the actual YGO Pro site and attempted to download the computer program, but am kind of confused how to go about it. If someone can walk me through that, it'd be appreciated.

[VarionusNW]

you download the installer, and open it, but change the install location, as it is set to a TEMP folder, aka, it wont work unless you direct it to a different file.

[Van]

Oh hey, you guys are trying for another YGO RP. Hopefully it doesn't die like the last time, that was a bit of a bummer and kept me from applying.

Buuut you guys seem a lot more active now in this new one. So I'm like, 50/50 on wanting to join, but I wanted to use a self-made Pendulum archetype. Just because I like the idea of Pendulums as a new mechanic, and think they're pretty rad. The thing I'm wondering is, am I allowed to use this self-made Pendulum archetype? If so, that might just seal the deal.

Edit - I forgot, before people flip the lid and go "OH GOD PENDULUMS NOOOOOPE" I come from games such as Buddyfight and Vanguard, so I lean more towards the balance side of things, as in cards should have costs before being played/activating effects. Basically what I was thinking for this Pendulum archetype is to be something of a reckless deck, at least in YGO standards. I pay life points when I summon most of my monsters and/or pay life points for their effects, and than I had the idea of something such as a monster that mills the top, I dunno, 3 cards of my deck, and get +300 life points for each X-type milled. Stuff like that. Gives a reckless vibe of "I'm either going to kill myself by burning myself to death, or decking myself out".

Think turbomilling Lightray-Lightsworns mixed with that Gishki ritual 4000k monster that pays 1000 life points to draw and kill a card. Except instead of milling my deck to special summon huge monsters like JD, I'm milling my deck to gain more life to keep up with paying the cost for the self-life burn. Most of the monsters being Pendulums is to represent the never-give-up reckless idea, while allowing me to focus on level 5-7 monsters that will have large life point costs to activate certain effects/large milling costs to you know, as I said, keep up with the giving up life points idea.

[mattmanganon]

I'm sceptical on the idea of Pendulum monsters, they sound fine in theory, however I haven't seen them being played yet and, as stated before, Bandai are only making cards for competitive play... Plus, as with all new card types, they are probably horribly under playtested, so there's probably a million different ways to exploit the shit out of them.

Plus, since none of them have actually been printed in English yet, I'd probably say we should stay away from that for the moment, because, as of writing this, how they work compared to the other decktypes is guesswork.

I vote that we keep Pendulums out of this until we know more about them.

[Krein]

I didn't even know they were actually coming out with this archetype, I thought it was something made up for the RP e_e...

[RolePlayerRoxas]

There's nothing wrong with Pendulums. Not at the moment, anyway. The ones we know about aren't that strong, and since Van is going to make sure his custom Pendulum's are balanced, I see no problem with allowing them.

Dr. Morbius, obviously.

Name: Clark Doshman

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Personality: Clark loves him some money. This is mostly because Duel Arcades have high maintenance costs, and emergency cash is always useful. He's not greedy, though, and will only take honest money for honest work. He owns the Duel Arcade "Ghoul's Night Out," offering duels in a horror movie atmosphere. He's fairly friendly, if a bit thick, and has a thorough knowledge of holographic technology and mathematics.

Brief Bio: (two to four paragraphs here)
The Doshman family is thrifty. They buy used clothing, grow vegetables in their garden, bought solar panels to save on energy costs, and always look at the long-term costs for anything in hopes to send their kids off to college. However, they also acknowledge how profitable Duel Monsters is. Which is why they were glad when Clark, their rather dim son, went for a career in hologram technology and opened his duel arcade. The father made his modest fortune after a win in a minor tournament and a few wise investments, which is why the family lives in the Sapphire District, which leads to occasional visits and many phone calls.

Clark, on the other hand, lives in the Topaz district. He earned the money to open his duel arcade by repairing and helping to build the setups for the stadium and nearby arcades. Because of the strict maintenance he puts in to his arcade, he lives in a few rooms in the basement, often making new decks for the Duelbots. His deck, though, was chosen because he thought the monsters were cute.

Deck Type: Unlivestock

Key Card: Zombarnyard, Unlivestock Abottoir

Known Cards: Quack-O-Lantern, Ghoul MacDonald, Zombeef

Spirit Partner: Bansheep

NOTE: Everything past here is just for fun, but feel free to do them if you want.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Hm... from what I can tell, they shouldn't have enough speed to shut down everyone's decks, so it should be fine.

[UnendingEmpire]

We just need a decklist and you're ready to go. On that note, we now have 16 characters total once Clark is accepted. This means that any additional CSes won't be dueling in the tournament, but there's no reason they can't do other things in the stadium. Besides, sometimes being a spectator has its own benefits, and there's no way the entire plot of the RP will be over after one silly tournament. In the meantime, here's a very-WIP fourth CS from me, since one of my characters will be leaving the RP early in and won't be back for quite a while.

Summer

Name: Summer Storm

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Personality: Certain in her abilities with a confident grin, an iron will, and a never-say-die attitude, Summer Storm hits exactly like her name. Hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast! On that note, going fast is one of her favorite things in life, which is why she's also taken to learning how Duel Runners work and how to repair them. She refuses to end a duel until somebody's life points hit 0 or there's an outright winner by other means, even if she knows it's a pointless struggle on her part. It's because she's a thrill seeker, really, which could also explain why a lot of her downtime is spent performing and recording dangerous Duel Runner stunts under the alias "Red Typhoon" among other hobbies.

If there's one thing Summer loves besides thrills and danger, it's food. Particularly, hot foods. She's the one person in every restaurant that will pour an entire bottle of hot sauce on an already-hot dish, then wash down that hot sauce with some piping hot coffee. Normal-temperature foods are alright too, but if given the choice, hot things take priority. Another thing she's fond of is keeping things under her control on the duel field, which is a part of why she started using an Alien deck to begin with. One could go on all day listing what she likes in the world, but the faster way to find out would just be to follow her around, since she pretty much does whatever she wants all day anyway.

Brief Bio: Born just outside the Topaz District, the Storm family has a bit of an odd reputation, at least in their particular neighborhood. It's not because of Summer, nor because of the parents or any other family member. It was because of Summer's elder sister, Wynter, who was under the everlasting impression that she was, in fact, an alien. Wynter had a whole plethora of medical crap going on, and she'd come to the conclusion when she was young that she wasn't native to this planet, and a lot of her goals and personality since then had grown from that belief. Summer seemed to be the only person who would continually deny this.

Wynter was, however, extremely intelligent. Enough so to win last year's G-Clock Open. But after that, no sign of her. She was gone, neither hide nor hair of her anywhere to be found. The only one who seemed especially concerned was, again, Summer. Building a similar Alien deck that was a bit more suited to her particular tastes, Summer spent a year practicing for the next G-Clock Open. Her objective is to win and find out what happened to last year's champion. Where did she go? Who sent her there? There were way too many questions to be asked, and there still are. As such, the best thing Summer knows she can do is win this tournament and be ready for what might happen next.

Deck Type: Alien. Prior to this, she ran a FIRE deck that utilized no spells to make it viable in both regular duels and Turbo Duels. She still has the FIRE deck sitting around, though she doesn't use it.

Key Card: Cosmic Fortress Gol'Gar

Known Cards: Alien Kid, Alien Ammonite, Code A Ancient Ruins, Planet Pollutant Virus

Spirit Partner: Alien Gray. This intelligent reptile's voice is odd to the point of sounding like an alien language unless you spend a considerable amount of time around him. His ultimate joy in life is collecting data on...pretty much anything. Because of this, he's highly inquisitive and doesn't dare assume anything unless there's scientific evidence. He'll often refer to everyday terms in a more science-like fashion, often calling people "subjects" and any form of competetition or change an "experiment." He also fails to understand how humans are such a primitive race next to the Aliens.

Oh god an Alien Deck. That shit is so much fun! It can be such a good deck if you can manage your counters.

I'm pretty sure i remember you completely destroying me. XD

I come from games such as Buddyfight and Vanguard,

You sir are amazing I've just started playing Vanguard and have been itching to try Buddyfight.

[UnendingEmpire]

The main hider has been updated, and the finished version of the tournament bracket is now underway.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Oh yeah, I really need to get back to playing Cardfight at some point. Guess I'm too used to YGOPro.

[UnendingEmpire]

Behold! The roster is finished!

[Joshua Tamashii]

Keyblade I recommend against Buddyfight. MY friends and I tried it and we gave up instantly cause the power creep was too high.

Cardfight on the other hand I approve of since I play it all the time. However I worry about the new staple ability coming out in Japan right now since it seems a bit broken. Then again limit break seemed that way at first as well so I probably shouldn't worry that much

[Keyblade87]

looks good and should be interesting. ^_^ can't wait.

[Joshua Tamashii]

What deck do you use in Cardfight Key?
