But even more a problem: I REALLY dislike the idea of having hand made cards for EVERY player... I still would rather it generate from the player's given info somehow, and reduce the urge of the developers to give up. |

As you see, all we really do is make lists of the players we want to have trading cards with their name, blid, a short description, and the type and rarity of the card, and possibly a picture. While some thought has to go into the process, it's not hardwork at all. 2. None of the Constructed Intelligences I have or have seen can make pictures and descriptions that make the cards seem worthwhile . 3. Developers? You mean the people making the data? Other than that, it's just me, I'm the only scripter working on this. |

Surely you could make the cards more personalized and put that up on the network, but templating it out makes the process a lot less stressful. 3: All involved. |

Of course the image in the card is taken manually. That way people can add stuff to the background like their builds and such. |

Can't we mix this so we don't get about 100 people and go "Dang, most of them are noobs... I'm tired of this, lets make something more fun!" You can make generated cards for people you don't get to, and change them to be personalized later. :( |
