[OOC] The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

[Jangel13]

Alright and now my deck is clear. Also my username for DN is the same as here

[Ammokkx]

Placement duels are officially a go. So yes, after each set completed I'll give off a small summary as Melchior, then the next four can duel. Feel free to give your own thoughts on every duel afterwards, even if you have to go and duel yourself.

EDIT: Also, bonus points if you get why I named Melchior the way I did.

@The Grey Dust

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO AND NO

In other news Tests are nearly done (one more day)
But for now, Endless sands is broken as it doesn't get discarded (ha take 3 best removal)

Sacred Ankh seems okayish

If Pharoah has Yami yugi as its monster then it am okay with it

no clue bout that GHOUL.

@1Charak2

Endless Sands can be negated, sending it to the grave. MST also "negates" this card's effect as it destroys it, meaning it cannot be shuffled into the deck, thus losing the effect.

Yes the Pharaoh is a reference to Atem.

Ghoul is a reference to Marik's hunters.

[vancexentan]

@Jangel13I believe Ben is your opponent for the placement test but I don't have Duel Network I have Ygopro.

[Ammokkx]

@vancexentan Don't use programs for the placement duels please.

[Ammokkx]

@The Grey Dust Ghoul's way too good of a wall while Necrovalley is out. Maybe reduce the graveyard summon effect to once per duel, because otherwise you literally can't get over that card if Necrovalley doesn't get dealt with... And if you're smart, you basically have six copies of it in your deck (Terraforming).

Scratch that, nine necrovalleys with that new card =P. All other card 'cept ghoul seem fine to me, though hourglass is definitely being limited to two if I do let it through.

[TBKrunk]

Sorry, I'm just interested into why we aren't allowed to use programs? I'm not trying to be going against you, I'm just intrigued as it seems easier to do that and then document the duel.

[vancexentan]

He wants more details in it which in my opinion leads to clutter trying to manage a card game like this but hey the gm gets what they want.

[Ammokkx]

@TBKrunk, @vancexentan Again, I can't police what you decide to do. I just ask that you don't do it, even if it's a little inconvenient. If you really do want to use a program, though, use Dueling Network. At least there you can do it play-by-play, and there isn't the issue of custom cards.

@Ammokkx

It has Zero attack and is summoned in face up attack position when a direct attack is declared. It's essentially the same thing as a direct attack, however the added benefit of adding 1 card to hand. It doesn't stop the OTK at all :I although switching it to defense mode works, but then it becomes a gellenduo/marshmallon, and piercing battle damage exists.

GK's actually have 9 Necrovalleys to begin with, Commandant is a necrovalley, terraforming is a necrovalley, but only 3 necrovalleys total which means once you banish all 3, their deck is useless. Hence the point of Ankh to cycle necrovalley.

[Ammokkx]

@The Grey Dust >Implying you can pull off an OTK here

Still not sold on a wall you can keep reviving every time it hits the grave and getting constant +1's when it does.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Ammokkx I too agree with both of your points on the whole "Dueling with a Program" discussion. There are definitely those programs which wouldn't be good for this kind of thing, but as it has been said, places like Dueling Network are play by play, easy to record, and a lot less time consuming and complicated.

And honestly, I still have no idea what that chat message you wanted us to do in the first place means... Sorry

[Jangel13]

@vancexentan
Okay let me know when you're ready to duel. I'll look into ygo just so I can get the randomized deck draw it has

[Ammokkx]

@Jangel13@Shiny Keldeo Lemme be more clear on it.

YGO and Devpro allow you to make a deck like Dueling Network, and in that deckbuilder screen is a shuffle button. It scrambles your cards randomly. You then use a random diceroller to roll you a number of 1-40 for your first draw, 1-39 for second etc. Then you use the Side Deck to keep track of your hand. After you play a card, you put it behind the rest of your deck and keep track of your field that way. Here's an example I made in like fivve seconds in paint:

The red is my field currently, and everythign blue is in my graveyard. Behind my graveyard would be banished.

[Satoshi Kyou]

@Ammokkxwell i do have one problem with using just random number generators, i tend to cheat, i managed to stop myself so far but DN reduces that because my opponent can see im cheating unlike just using titanpad

im not afraid to admit this. if i get kicked out the rp for saying it. then so be it

[Eklispe]

Use orokos and link your rolls. Ez

Edit: Or have someone do it for you and tell you your cards.

[Shiny Keldeo]

@Satoshi Kyou Agreed, plus Dueling Network has a spectator feature, so people can actually watch the duel as it goes down as well. But just going with an RNG and such is a little risky.

[Satoshi Kyou]

@Shiny Keldeo i wouldnt cheat in a rp for the life of me but i get really temped a lot so you see what i mean right shiny dude?

on another subject i would request people to do my rolls but that wouldnt sit well with me because maybe he listed my deck as well and makes sure im not drawing the cards i want
