This is a marvelous day... A day that will go down in history. The start of a new beginning in custom card creation. We will unite. We will be stronger now than ever before. Together nothing can stop the pink menace. NOTHING! We will make, we will create, and we will conquer all the other clans. Now come together comrades. We must begin.
Also: Please sign me up for the amazingness. I guess I have to to irc at some time too.
I think we should make a core set first, to ease into it.
And by we, i mean, can i haz clan?

Like I said, I can only go by my own experience, which is now 18 years. Kind of disheartening when you think you know something and you find out that you're a notch below a low grade moron.
On behalf of [House Dimir], I would like to welcome [Clan Flamingo] to the Clans area.
I know some of you, (well, I have had a breif conversation with Pancho and played Mafia with Pro), but for the most part you are all new faces.
I do a lot of custom card creation, but have not ventured into that area of Sally more than a few times.
I will be stopping in often to see what you cats are up to. I once again would like to welcome you, and wish you good fortune during your trial period.
Oh, I would like to participate on the YMTC revival, as is a game that doesn't require that much time to invest, and you can leave it to "work by itself", more o less.
Oh ok good everything finally happened (Megiddo = mod and Clan = clan). I think there is actually a YMTC split card to finish somewhere if we want to do that, but yeah, I think what ended it was that M_E didn't have time to post the polls any more. If members want to make the posts we (mods) can get them stickied and choose things to advance (although maybe the non-transparent selection process was also a drawback).

Yeah the PM telling me both of those things had happened was pretty great!
As for YMTC, Prophylaxis, the polls are posted in the main CCC+G subforum initially.
EDIT: Did you want to join, mom? I remember you expressed interest earlier.

Can we have Megiddo removed from the forum forever please?
i'm pretty sure i can find your ***** online within 3 minutes
I am excited to start "hosting" YMTC, but I'd like to know how its been run in the past and what kind of "business-end" things I should be aware of. I participated a bit on the last few, but there were some behind-the-scenes actions I'd like to know about. Particularly, how ideas were trimmed down for the polls. Also any kind of moderator-required actions, like stickying or getting a render posted up on the main page. Also, if anyone has the MSE custom set symbol that is standard for YMTC, I'd appreciate it getting sent to me!
Yeah obv put me in the clan. I guess I gotta start winning in the Club
Piar, the way that selections were made to advance was by a committee of myself, Moss_Elemental, and Kraj (former CC mod). I suppose in theory we could run it entirely by poll, but it seemed easier to cut it down to some representative and likely candidates.
Thanks for the well wishes to those who have offered them!
As for reviving YMTC, I'm not going to get involved with that right now because I've got a bunch of other games I'm running this month, but as a moderator I suppose my MOD POWERS could be employed to stick threads

It makes plenty of sense to me to cut it down. Otherwise you get people just voting for their entries some of the time and getting low-vote ties. At the same time, I don't want to be the only person who trims down the selections, lest I be declared a cruel dictator of YMTC :rolleyes:. I think I'm pretty fair and could trim down on my own if need be, but if I'd prefer to have a small committee like that.
Yeah one of us would probably see any thread that needed to be stuck, but if you really want us to know you can report your own post and we'll get a PM about it.
I found the last thread here, I guess we can finish it off with the art and mana costs. I'm not sure about the expansion symbol, I've never figured out how to do that very well in MSE. Moss_Elemental may be able to help.
If you're going to post threads, Piar, it can be you and the 3 current mods, unless you have a better idea for members.

Aaah, this is a fantastic idea! Long life to Clan Flamingo!
[Clan Flamingo]
The clan for custom card creators!
(Megiddo, can I preeetty please join. Pretty please.)
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)
Also: Please sign me up for the amazingness. I guess I have to to irc at some time too.
Long live CLAN FLAMINGO
Make wall support cards or a legendary wall
Winner is also Judge = 2
Club Flamingo/Megiddo's Magic Pimp Shack = 4
After yesterday's misstep, I'm definitely glad that we're officially sanctioned and "ready to go"
At this point let's start getting into it!
Topics that have been raised:
Custom Sets
Reviving YMTC
Instituting a monthly Clan Flamingo "Sponsored game" (like the Battle Factory)
- I'm in for custom sets. I like the idea of a clan block construction.
- I was never amazingly enthralled with YMTC, it seemed to take too long.
- This sounds like what we'll be doing. January Flamingo game: Battle Factory.

The point here is that we will try and revive contests.
Also as a moderator I can sticky things like that (though I'd ask the other mods if they are ok with bringing that back).
However, having one or two Flamingos in charge of the contest would be good.

Also, Megiddo? A mod? Lord have mercy on us all.
ALSO, AGAIN. A custom set is a great idea. Now that we have some organisation behind us, we could actually use it to run tournaments!
Monthly games are a similarly great idea. Once we have a few made, we can simply rotate them. Delightful.
I am really looking forward to seeing Clan Flamingo in Clan Contests. The amount of creative members here is off the charts!
