We’re a good solid number now. I’ll wait a bit more but I suspect we may start soon (maybe tomorrow).

Right, I think it’s time to get down to some DCing.
The first virtual card I want you to make is arguably the worst rare card ever printed: The Weight of A Legacy
You’re card should therefore look something like this:
The Weight of a Legacy (V)
Condition
Text.
Lore.
1 R 282
As a reminder of the rules (special additions to the rules for this round are underlined), your card should:
1) Have the same title (with a (V) attached to the end) and the same uniqueness
2) Have the same twilight cost, culture, type and sub-type *NOTE: because in FotR ’Support Area’ was not a sub-type, there is nothing to stop you adding the text ’Plays to your support area’ to this card should you so wish*
3) Have whatever attribute modifiers you think appropriate
4) Have a different text, maybe similar, but could also be on completely different lines and it should broadly work with strategies from FotR
5) Have a lore which you want, it’s really up to you - you can keep the same lore or put in your own, it doesn’t really matter.
In some of the later rounds I’ll be much stricter with what I want, but for this opening round the text is entirely up to you.
Cards should be PMed to me before next week Wednesday 30th January. If you have a problem with the timing, don’t hesitate to tell me and I’ll try and work something out.
I’m also going to try a slightly different policy for contests: I think it’s unreasonable for the same DCer to act as both design and development and cards should not lose out on votes just because they have the wrong twilight cost, for example. So, if I notice any blatant balance issues in your cards, I will return them to you with my suggestion(s) and then you can PM it to me again if you want to change it.
If you still haven’t joined the contest but want to, then as long as you PM me the card or post below before the deadline, I’ll sign you up.
So, I think that’s everything. I look forward to seeing your cards, and don’t forget to have fun!

Got half of the entries now.
Not to nag you or anything, but I’ve sent PMs as quick reminders to those who haven’t yet submitted.
Deadline Wednesday (in future, deadlines will be quicker, but I’ve been quite busy recently).
