Alright nerds, here are the rules:
There are two players, we'll name them Dome and Helix, because why not.

Each player is using a 63 card deck, which meets deck building requirements. However, these cards are what you want them to be, but once somebody decides a card, that is permanent (even if it gets shuffled back).
Every 7th card they draw will be a lost soul. If (a) lost soul(s) are shuffled back, the next card drawn will be that lost soul(s). Thus the 63, 56, 49, 42, 35, 28, 21, and 14th cards will be lost souls. If the cards in deck is going to be below this number, then make sure you draw a lost soul (and a card to replace it).
Each post can make one voluntary action (drawing cards for the start of your turn doesn't count, playing a card does), and no member can post more than once every 12 hours.
At the end of each post, post the number of hand/territory/deck, etc.
The idea is that this could be a real game of Redemption.
Look at hand/deck does not give you the ability to determine what cards are where. The only thing that does that is the actual playing of the cards.

So to begin
Dome draws 8 cards, two being lost souls.
Helix draws 8 cards, two being lost souls.

Dome's hand: 8 cards
Dome's Land of Bondage: 2 generic Lost Souls
Dome's Territory: none
Dome's Set-aside area: none
Dome's deck: 53 cards

Helix's hand: 8 cards
Helix's Land of Bondage: 2 generic Lost Souls
Helix's Territory: none
Helix's Set-aside area: none
Helix's deck: 53 cards

I'll start.

Helix's turn. He puts Goat with Horn (Di) in his territory.

Current Turn: Helix
Dome's hand: 8 cards
Dome's Land of Bondage: 2 generic Lost Souls
Dome's Territory: none
Dome's Set-aside area: none
Dome's deck: 53 cards

Helix's hand: 7 cards
Helix's Land of Bondage: 2 generic Lost Souls
Helix's Territory: Goat with Horn (Di)
Helix's Set-aside area: none
Helix's deck: 53 cards

Have fun kids.

Dome rages at Helix's unsportsmanlike actions exclaiming, "THIS GAME IS ABOUT FUN AND FELLOWSHIP!!!!"  Before the tournament host can stop him.....   (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻   


Dome ironically wins because he was ahead 1-0 before the irreparable game state.    :maul:




lol....I'm just having fun.  You guys can disregard and take this thread elsewhere.

No discard pile list because you can't look at the pile in a real game. You just have to remember.

Alex, SoG was already Confusioned from Helix's deck.
This is actually the exact reason I brought up the discard pile.
