WELCOME BACK! MEMBERS FROM BEFORE!

[flareonfury]

 So we are officially back (hopefully for good! At least for 3 years the domain has been bought and prepaid for, but fingers are crossed for more)! 

Basically this post, besides a general welcome post, is for any previous members from the last 2 times. Just comment below and you'll be rewarded for any donations you may have done. I think the list on the Credits page is up to date, but if it's missing something please let me know! You guys will be rewarded as if it was a monthly theme so basically something extra.

Hello! :D Super happy the tcg is back!

So much Smallville! LOL I was definitely obsessed back then...now it's The Gifted!

Would it be possible to get this image for my member card? Any color is fine.

Thank you!

[flareonfury]

Hey I appreciate you for seriously everything you donated (I'll calculate the rewards tomorrow night after work ;) ) - For a long time Smallville was basically all we had for like good live-action superhero TV that lasted for years so I totally get that, plus I was heavy into the fandom itself (fanfiction and the LJ community so I kinda grew up in it). OOh Gifted, I still never finished Season 1, I don't know why I always get distracted mid through... but yay I totally ship those two! But I've been extra obsessed with the X-Men lately (also why the theme stayed the same lol), so I'll have to go back and rewatch. It did end too soon I know, I finally got my live-action Polaris only to lose her and everyone. Maybe once the X-Men join the MCU, we'll see more of the characters.


And of course, on the membercard! Let me know if you want it changed at all, or at any point.

[ericareyes]

So true about Smallville. I am really glad we have so many Live Action shows now. Even the ones that have been cancelled! I was huge into the fandom too! I shipped everyone with everyone lol

The Gifted was good season 2 but I didn't like how the ending was a cliffhanger. I think it would have had another season but it was right at the time Marvel bought Fox and they got rid of all the shows.

Thank you so much for the member card! It looks great! :)

Do you remember rumors of them maybe bringing in Batman for Smallville, but not being allowed to because of the film trilogy? They didn't want to confuse us, I think they were just too scared. I hated that. They eventually did so for the Smallville comics, but I haven't read those yet. I think that's kinda why I love the later seasons because they expanded to include so many characters. I was so happy for Arrow and than the various spin-offs. And you know what? It worked for them. Marvel had that with the Netflix shows before they cancelled them. I do feel like Marvel is finally catching up with all these live-action television shows, I just wish they weren't so short lived and would return for season 2s. I'm curious what DC is going to do now, since I think they cancelled all their live-action shows minus Peacemaker.

I know so many good shows that should have had another season, and ended on a cliffhanger. Ugh that is the worst! They do it trusting they'd be back, but I'd rather they didn't do that just incase, you'd think they'd learn by now, it's been happening since the 90s at least. I kinda am glad that Marvel bought Fox, just so we can have like actual character mixtures like the actual comics themselves (I want Polaris to meet up with Wanda or Magneto or hell even Pietro/Peter, omg I'd love for Iceman and Firestar or hell Human Torch to team up with Spider-Man... although he's still Sony so who knows.) although I do hate parts of it though (like losing all those actors/shows/films). Although if you saw the Marvels, we may not have lost all the actors...

And of course! I'm so glad it came out great :)

Sent a Reward through the site, so it should be in your account under "Rewards". Let me know if it doesn't work (first time using it). Basically you had 20 decks donated so timed that equaled 100 random cards, 40 choice cards (from decks non-donated) and 40 choice cards (from your donated, limit 2 per deck).

The Randomizer has a "Donated" section at the bottom with 40 random cards if you prefer (or if it didn't show up) or if you want random choice cards.

[ericareyes]

Hello! Seconding what Lex said about the rewards being broken. I took a screenshot incase you need it: here!

For the choice cards, should I comment here or just add them to the reward logs?

[flareonfury]

So weird! I don't get why it didn't work... maybe it was just too many card options or maybe the membercard threw it off? But yeah you can just record them at your rewards log and if your missing any for your 100 random cards, feel free to take from the randomizer. I'm thinking of just making separate randomizer page just incase this happens on normal rewards. Fingers crossed the normal rewards are ok!

[ericareyes]

The rewards have all 100 cards so I saved them. I have them added to my post along with the choice cards. The rewards link still show up in my rewards panel. I think they need to be manually removed. They probably still show up there since the reward wasn't displayed right with the logs and had the broken image.

Thank you for all the donation rewards! :)

[flareonfury]

Got it! You're welcome & yay I'm glad ♥ Deleted the rewards from the phpmyadmin so hopefully it worked alright.

[admiral]

Hello, good to see you back! This is Lex. :3

Could I get this as my new member card? Just the color portion on the left. Thank you!

[flareonfury]

Good to see you too! I was so worried no one was going to join, lol but I'm glad to be back and for you to come back too. I've really been missing the site and the community a lot. Seriously totally appreciated all the things you've donated in the past ♥ (I'll have your donations rewards calculated tomorrow after work as well).


Of course! Let me know if you want anything changed with it: Yay for Kitty & Lockheed! ♥

It has been a little quiet in the TCG world lately, there's definitely not as many TCGs open as there used to be.

The MC is adorable, thank you! :D

Also it looks like I never got an email when joining the site, so I can't activate my account there. :/a

[flareonfury]

I was happy to see Wonderland back, not going to lie, and it is kind of fun to do the automatic TCGs, but it also kinda feels impersonal? I was tempted to make C&C one, but I had just made like over 100 new tradecards in honor of opening the site again that I passed on it. The Stacks program seems to be working for the most part, a few glitches here and there but hopefully not as noticeable.

No worries, I'm activating you now! Not sure how to fix that to just automatically accept people or at least actually send the e-mail. Once Aki is back, I was going ask them how to fix it. Right now I can only activate you through the phpmyadmin section. Seems to happen at other TCGs, or at least for me at Literary and I think even at one of the automatic TCGs, I remember someone having to activate me as well. But I didn't see anywhere where there was a solution for that. I do miss Exposure Forums, I get completely lost with the discord thread stuff. It's kinda why I had to go kinda old school with dreamwidth.


Sent a Reward through the site, so it should be in your account under "Rewards". Let me know if it doesn't work (second time using it). Basically you had 19 decks donated so timed that equaled 95 random cards, 38 choice cards (from decks non-donated) and 38 choice cards (from your donated, limit 2 per deck).

The Randomizer has a "Donated" section at the bottom with 40 random cards if you prefer (or if it didn't show up, just two to get 38) or if you want random choice cards.

[admiral]

Yeah automatic TCGs are great to do a quick little update while you've got a few free minutes, but they definitely don't have the same charm as a full TCG.

I don't think the site rewards worked, I clicked the link but it doesn't register that I got any cards (didn't show up in the logs and the rewards link remains on the Rewards page). I wonder if the broken image at the end is what broke it?

If you want to try sending it again I won't take any rewards from the randomizer yet.

[flareonfury]

Resent the Donations rewards, but I broke it up into smaller sizes, maybe that will help? I'm wondering if maybe one of those broken images was a deck with 15 cards (which I know breaks the news updates/blogs despite me trying to fix it - apparently trying to use a similar code breaks it all together so I'm trying to not cringe every time I see it). That or it might have been too many images. I did notice that Sidequest has an extra donation section on their game page. I'll have to see about a way I could do something similar (without breaking the coding would be nice for once LOL).

[admiral]

ok I was able to collect the new rewards and they wrote into the logs/disappeared from the rewards page, so that worked! I did try to inspect the broken image at the end of all of them and I think it's the added text that's doing that? but it didn't interfere in collecting the rewards at least.

so thank you for the cards! I guess you can just delete the first set of rewards that's still on the page since it won't go away??

[flareonfury]

You're welcome ♥ Deleted the rewards from the phpmyadmin so hopefully it worked alright. I wrote that under the achievements section rewards page image, so I guess there is no option for like a comment which is a good thing to know but sucks.
