Sure. Bob's gonna make a new section of the forums in a minute. We can get started then.

You should be able to make announcements. Make the Store thread and the Inventory thread into announcements. That SHOULD keep them at the top, which is where they should be.

what do you mean by announcements? Like just the beginning post of a thread or what? I've never been a moderator....

I don't know, neither have I. But I was watching Bob as he did it and he enabled announcements to "stick" to the top of the board, so they don't get buried under new posts. If you see anything called "announcements" or "stickies" or anything like that, make the Store and Inventory thread that way. I don't really know how to do this either. If you can't figure out how to do it, just make the threads the normal way.

Alright, I'll experiment and see how to do it. At TTA, I can only get the red backgrounded pics of cards, that alright? Highlighting a card makes it red, and I can't get it otherwise

You know what, let me handle the cards. I can upload them and stuff to my site (which is just an offshoot of Bob's anyway) and you can link to them from there. Maybe I can find a way to get the blue versions as well. In the mean time, just make the inventory thread. For now, make the thread and post your inventory (which is zero cards, zero points). I'll post my inventory later (it's the same). I don't think I'm going to do anything else tonight. Maybe I'll have the cards up tomorrow... Unless you have a better/faster way of doing it. I don't know where you were planning on posting the images of the cards where they can be linked to.

Okay, I (with the help of bob) figured out how to get both the blue and red versions of the cards from TTA. By tomorrow afternoon I'll have all of them uploaded to my site. I'll post the links here so you can put them in the Store thread. Also people can link to them there, if they want the pics in their games.
I'll go post on the inventory thread and then I'm off for the night.

Okay, one more thing though, It will be on the .5 level multiplying with level 10 cards only won in tournaments right?

All the images (both the red and blue versions) are now up on my site. Just click the little house icon under my name. The ones with r followed by the name are the red versions, the ones without are the blue versions. For the store I suggest just using the blue versions, the red can be used only for in-game.
I think we SHOULDN'T sell cards. It makes it complicated and also makes my next couple of ideas rather confusing and/or easily exploitable.
I also had another idea. I think only cards level 1-5 should be immediately available in the store. I think you should have to own 40 cards in order to buy a level 6 card and 70 cards in order to buy a level 7 card.
Also, have you ever played any Madden football games? You know how you have to perform certain tasks to get the points to unlock cards? I think we should do the same sort of thing for level 8 and 9 cards. Don't make them available in the store, instead make it so you have to do a certain task to unlock a certain card.
I've already taken the liberty of coming up with suggestions. If you think you've got better ideas, say so.
Level 8:
Chubby Chocobo: Win 30 games Angelo: Win a perfect game. Gilgamesh: Get one of every level 3 card Minimog: Go five consecutive games without losing or drawing Chicobo: Get one of every level 1 card Quezacotl: Get 4 of every Lightning elemental card Shiva: Get seven Glacial Eyes and seven Snow Lions (i.e. seven of every ice elemental) Ifrit: Get four of every Fire elemental card (Sam08G, Deathclaw etc.) Siren: Get one of every level 2 card Sacred/Minotaur: Get five of every earth elemental card (and you get both)
Level 9:
Carbuncle: Get one of every level 4 card Diablos: Play ten (maybe 5?) consecutive "All" Trade games Leviathan: Get ten Chimera cards Odin: Get one of every level 5 card Pandemona: Get five of each wind elemental card Cerberus: Get one of every level 6 card Alexander: Get two of every level one card, two of every level 2 card, and one of every level 3 card Phoenix: Get one of every level 7 card Bahamut: Get one of every level 8 card Doomtrain: Get four of every poison-elemental card Eden: Get one of every card from level 1 to 9 (excluding, of course, Eden itself)
And level ten cards can only be won in tournaments.
I didn't really think about the numbers too much, so they may have to adjusted.
Edit: apparently I'm a mod now.... so I guess I can make the Store thread. Don't worry, you're still the auditer guy, but since a lot of this is my idea, I think I should have SOME control of it.
Edit: This post has been edited with some changes in numbers and stuff...

Okay, I did all the level one cards. Everyone who wants to play, just take any seven level 1 cards you want (you can have as many of one card as you want) and put them in your inventory thread. I shall do that for myself now.

Alright, sorry I'm not around, school sucks, anyway, Yeah it's fine you started the store, and the ideas are good for the cards, I too thought that Summon cards should be harder to get, But here are my issues:
Gilgamesh is easier that Siren, that need be fixed, Gilgamesh should be about the hardest Level 8 card, hes only up on the list cause hes not a real GF.
Diablos: That's a little too risky isn't it? I would do like 5 consecutive 'all' matches
Shiva: Since she has so few ice cards, it should be 7 of all ice cards
Card Levels 6 should only be won by consecutive wins, like if you win two games consectutively, you get a level 6 card, and Level 7 cards should be awarded every time you win a game using cards at a lower level than your opponent. If you got something better, then feel free to post it.

Gilgamesh is easier that Siren, that need be fixed, Gilgamesh should be about the hardest Level 8 card, hes only up on the list cause hes not a real GF. I'll just switch the two of them. Diablos: That's a little too risky isn't it? I would do like 5 consecutive 'all' matches Hmm.... maybe. I wanted to have a couple of really challenging/risky cards. I'll let other people decide this one. Vote now! Shiva: Since she has so few ice cards, it should be 7 of all ice cards Well, the only two ice cards ARE Glacial Eye and Snow lion. It doesn't really matter anyway, but since I'd rather err on the side of tough, I'll up it to seven. Card Levels 6 should only be won by consecutive wins, like if you win two games consectutively, you get a level 6 card, and Level 7 cards should be awarded every time you win a game using cards at a lower level than your opponent. If you got something better, then feel free to post it. Do you know how RIDICULOUSLY easy it would be to get level six and seven cards that way? In the time it took you to earn enough points for ONE level 5 card, you could have like, 10 level six's and about 20 level sevens. They'd be almost as easy as getting level one or two cards. Granted, you COULD up those numbers to make it more difficult, but after a while it's going to be tough and tiresome to keep track of how many consecutive wins people have. It's much easier to keep track of how many cards they have. Plus it keeps people from theoretically getting a level seven card in one game and a level six card in two. With your method, once we start the game, a person who got a lucky streak of two games could suddenly start stomping all the other players. I like my method. And, in fact, I think I'll up the numbers too.
