Cactus Game Design Message Boards

I am interested in learning Pokemon, Possibly Yu-Gi-Oh (SP?) and Magic (MTG) so that I can meet other players, and develop new players in the Redemption community.

my goal in getting magic/Pokemon/Yugioh cards is to obtain cards from all sets because there are groups in Florida where I live that play these type of CCG, and I'm fishing so to speak for Redemption players in central Florida, fishing might not be the right term, but consider it an analogy, I'm fishing in a pool of people that 100's to 1K+ magic players, and from a marketing standpoint if I could get a 2-4% rate of return which is a good success ratio I can develop a decent playgroup in central Florida. As a host, I'm developing new players, and am having a hard time doing that in a lot of the churches here, but I'm going to continue to research churches here as well.  There are 1K+ players of Yugioh in central Florida, and there are 100's of players in central Florida for Pokemon these are the 3 biggest CCG games in central florida, so this is where I'm fishing so to speak. 

I  want to be able to build competitive decks over time, but I need to start somewhere, and I don't have a lot of money to sink into this so I'm willing to trade value to value on cards that I'm looking for with card of equal value in redemption.  I have over 40,000 cards in Redemption that I can trade that are in mint/near mint condition. For the right deal, I may even pull cards from my 10,000+ cards in my collection (not part of my trading lot, and then I'll add that card to my trading list). And I am also willing to pick cards that have a value that I like that I don't need because I can then take that card and in turn trade it with people in those communities that are not Redemption going forward, because I will be treating these games similarly to the way I do Redemption, that being said, I get to choose cards of great value that I don't need as to whether or not I want to trade for.  That's no different then Redemption as everyone here can agree to.

If you are offering me a donation of cards because I'm starting out, I appreciate any and all donations; however, I'm not making it a requirement, but donations are welcome, and maybe I can offer you something of value to cover shipping.  If you are offering to sell me cards  I can buy some cards since I'm starting out, but more than likely paying with real money, I'm going to undervalue the cards because I'm starting out, and don't have much money to sink into this to begin with.  If you want to trade me cards, once we can mutually agree on a value for your cards or collection if you are getting rid of a collection or part of one, I will trade you value to value on mutually agreed upon value in redemption cards.

I need to learn and be able to compete with them before I can gain there trust to teach them a new game.

If you have cards that you are willing to trade, donate, (or I might possibly buy, but it would need to be cheap), please contact me on this thread only.

I am not looking to get Redemption cards on this thread, I have a different thread that's being worked on for my Redemption needs.

I am willing to trade Redemption cards to get these cards, but I need to know what you specifically have available in trade, and what you are looking for specifically.  I'll consider trading cards here that I wouldn't necessarily be trading on my trade page, so I'm not listing cards available (but feel free to consult my have's list when its complete on my trade page, and keep in mind if its not on my trade page doesn't mean that I'm not willing to trade it, there are a few cards in redemption that I don't currently own, but that list is changing every day, and hopefully soon I'll own all of them, however, I'll continue to trade for card since I'm continuing to develop new players, and in a lot of cases I'm donating decks to kids that may or may not continue playing in order to make redemption a viable game within the community for kids or adults that are starting out, but just want to test the waters so to speak. 

Please respond here or feel free to PM me.  Thanks

Luke,

Do tell.  Can you be more specific.  Thanks

Steven

Very detailed PM sent about Pokémon. In addition, I have a coulple of rare Yugioh cards I could part with.

There are a big number of Pokemon and Magic players here in Central Florida, and I'm interested in developing new players, but I need to learn and be able to compete with them before I can gain there trust to teach them a new game.

Yeah, because Redemption needs Kevin Kobayashi.

I have some Magic cards back from way back I could dig up for you. It's been years since I've played or looked at them, but I know they are in good condition.

Any way you could provide a list of what you have? Or are there too many to list?

You have successfully lured MKC into a thread other than Hearthstone. Congratulations!

Luke,

I sent you a pm regarding this post.  Also, which Yugioh cards specifically(names and quantities) are you willing to part with?

All of of them, I have 110+ cards and 9 of them are Holofoil. The cards include:
Infernal Flame Emperor $4
Ultimate Tyranno $2
Toon World $2
Kiseitai $1
Exploder dragon $1.50
Lord of D. x 3 $9
The Flute of Summoning Dragon x 2 $8
Phantom Beast of Wild Horn $2
Black Tyranno $2
Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight x 2 $4
And Many, Many other cards, all for trade/sale!
Thanks,
Luke

I'll do some research regarding those cards, and how many cards (card count) are there in the Many, Many other cards so that we can try to work something out.

Steven

Luke,

Oh ok, thanks.  I have over 50,000 cards in Redemption.  when you said many, many cards, I assumed that that would be more than the 110 you listed based on the verbiage.  I'll get back to you.  I'm working the next three days so my time will be limited on those days.

Steven

Is your haves page updated? That would help me with trading, do you have any TEC for trade?

Luke,

My redemption trade page is current for everything released after priests, except for RoA, and FooF, I'm in the process of updating them as well, it just takes time due to a collection that is over 50k cards, and I have trades currently in process as well.

Westy,

You'll have to clue me in to the joke.  I've only ever played Redemption as far as CCG's go.  I'm trying to learn about the new games to develop new players.  Who is Kevin Kobayashi?

Steven

Luke,

PM replied to.  Thanks

Steven

Luke,

I'll wait for the list.  Thanks

Steven
