[OOC] Shine City II: The Next Season

[Daxam]

@Daxam is right, Zac does have magic, he wouldn't even need to duel, he'd just send yutaro to the shadow realm and be done with it XD

@Takashi

@BeastofDestiny

Nah, Zac's not that mean. His first hand would 'just happen' to be all five Exodia pieces :3c

[Takashi]

<Snipped quote by Takashi>

Would you really wanna do something like that with someone who can make cards appear and disappear at will? XD

@Daxam

Well they both have experience manipulating cards so that aspect would be interesting to say the least. However, Yutaro has an excellent metagame. A turn zero win wouldn't be enough to defeat him if he uses every trick he knows.

[Daxam]

@Takashi

Ah, but who says Zac would go straight for the win? Maybe he knows how to use his skills without making it look like he is :3

Not saying he does, but he might XD

@Daxam

Well, not sure what else he'd do with a first hand Exodia. But, let's just say if Yutaro was being ruthless he could win before the game even begins.

@Takashi

Whoops, I used that in the wrong context ^^;

How could Yutaro do that, though?

[Viciousmarrow]

This is how I see Zac being in a duel. xD

@Daxam

By using the standard practices of card game tourney rules to his advantage. It is common practice for opponents to cut each others' decks. It is also common practice for them to list the cards they will be using in their deck/sideboard in advance. During the cut, Yutaro can slip an extra copy of a card that is already registered into his deck. Then whenever it is convenient, he can call for a neutral party to do a card count. Even if Zac sees the card count as a cue and uses his slight of hand to remove a card, he won't know what card it is. Likewise, even if he draws the card, he won't know it since it is a card he would be using. The card count would show that he has the correct number of cards, but he will be over the legal limit for the card Yutaro slipped in. Zac would be disqualified for cheating.

@Takashi

That'd work if it were a tournament. But we're talking about a 'friendly' game for a young woman's heart XD

@Daxam

Ah, but we already established that this would be a "very serious" children's card game, and even friendly games often use tourney rules.

[Cirrus]

The Akane and James collab now has a real conclusion thanks to an additional section.
It was already done, more or less, but if anyone wants to read the last little chunk it's here.

@Takashi

Ah, good point. But, what if Zac only uses 50 cards?

So, after four hellish hours where the need to pee outweighed breathing, I've finally made it back from the highway to Hell, bladder having been flushed out completely (I've never taken a more glorious piss). It got to the point where it was painful, and I almost peed myself! Twice!

But that aside, I'm finally back...! And laying comfortably in my bed, resting my weary bones. What about you guys?

@Delta44

Do you live in Southern California?

[Delta44]

@Stern Algorithm No, I live in Western Australia. But I'd imagine they're both about the same :P

Current status:

Smitten for all the male characters due to rl gender and fangirl hormones and shying away from the female characters all out of Shou's league - feeling confused but flirty.

That is confusing XD

@IrishAngelQueen I didn't @ you until after I edited my post, so I did it again here to make sure you got it! :D

@Daxam

That's why he inserted one of the cards already in his deck. Even if the total number of cards is legal, he'd be over the legal limit of that specific card. If you're interested in clever ways to cheat, I recommend the animes Legendary Gambler Tetsuya, and Kaiji.

[SkeankySnack]

@IrishAngelQueen What kind of dog is moose? I didn't see it on your cs.

[Dolerman]

@Stern Algorithm No, I live in Weston Australia. But I'd imagine they're both about the same :P

@Delta44

Fixed
