@RickyG85 last few days were just pretty bad and busy for me so I've just not had a chance to write my ideas down. I finally have a character concept and a deck list, so I can get those sent in soonish hopefully but likely not until wednesday unless a miracle occurs. I definitely don't want to hold things up, so feel free to keep things moving and I'll catch up somehow.

No worries, man. Incidentally, I wound up not having time to post today, so there's still time for more posting before I move things along

Seeing it in action (Thanks, World), I have to admit the duelbook log is better suited to a rp focused yugioh rp than my initial plan. I'll still encourage players to do whatever they're most comfortable with, but duelbook is pretty solid.


How do duelbook work, anyway? Just duel a random opponent and copy the log, or do they have AI/bot. @The World

@Randomguy
It's player to player, there's no bot. It's basically playing the game in person at a table, you have to manually do everything the cards say. But, once you're used to it, it works well, and it allows custom cards to be made/used. So it would work best by having us play the duel out between the RPers and put the dialogue/etc. in the log as we do. Then it's just a matter of prettying it up and adding things that would be known to the reader but not the other player (ie thinking "Oh, thank goodness, I drew Pot of Desires right when I needed to. Good thing my opponent doesn't know that") since putting that in the log would obviously be telling the other player what happened.

The biggest downside, if you consider it one, is that you do need to make an account for the site, but it's super easy to do so. Then just make a private duel with a password and you can duel a specific person by giving them that password and having them put it in at the duel table you make.

But, uh... It's probably a good idea to ignore the front page messages/statuses. Back when I was on Duelingbook much more often, there were times things there got sort of stupid.

Alright, time to finish turning my crappy post into something y'all can actually work with at 7:30ish in the morning because I'm celebrating my son's 9th birthday and I've got shit to do so espresso is the new water

So what happened to the rest of the tournament? Do we just talk among ourselves how it went down?

It would be hilarious if none of the PCs won the tourney.

Yugi secretly enters the tourney and crushed all of us with the Heart of Cards

lol I toyed with the idea of just saying Aile couldn't help but win :P

Since winning wasn't actually important, I chose not to spend too much time on it.

I mean sure, but we still kinda have to decide how it went down, no? RP wise, it would be sort of weird if our character never talk about it. Especially considering how some have stake on the tournament.

Henry has Beatrice wanting him to win, Aile and Toby want to beat each other, Lucy wants the thrill of gambling, and so on

I honestly thought this would be our tutorial duel against each other to be honest.

It's a chance for our characters to get to know each other a bit as well.

I'm fine with skipping most of the tournament, since that would take a while to RP out for something that really does not matter in the slightest; we can just vote of who wins. But having us duel at least one other player does at least let us point at each other and go "hey, it you, you got a weird cemetery invite as well".

It also means we'll be able to solidify once and for all how we handle duels in the future.

Hmmm... you know what, yeah, y'all go ahead and do that. I'll make an edit to my post to accommodate the tournament still going on

Okay. Could you make a discord server or something so we can coordinate it, then?

@RickyG85 Should the duels be made into posts, or just mentioned in passing as we skip to nighttime?
