« on: May 11, 2011, 05:49:02 PM »
hi all
i'm after putting my collection onto a data base. ive come across zorbecks deckbuilder but unlike his call of cthulhu database the LOTR one just seems to be a deckbuilder also there is no art which is a big disappoinment.
What do you guys use to collate your collections
cheers

Binders..... JK...well, I do not store them in a computer, I have them in binders and the rest, I just keep up to 4 copies of each card. The rest is left in a sparebox.

I keep Rares, Foils, and Promos in a binder and all commons and Uncommons in boxes.

If you're talking about on the computer, I still use the old LOTROnline software. It has all the art, the cards are searchable, and its got a really good deckbuilder.

Hi,

my physical collection is stored in binders (up to 4 copies of each card), the spare cards are stored in boxes.

To digitally keep track of my collection I use a selfmade excel sheet.

For deck building I still use the LOTR Online client software.

Regards,
Michael

Is there someway to access this online client still?  I'd like something to help me build decks easier.

You prob shouldn't rezz 2-month old topics.
But if you want something to help you build decks easier, Zorbec's decklist builder is the best. And there is a way to get the images on there.

It's posted in the other thread here with instructions:

I believe the link still works.

I don't think Zorbec's is nearly as good, but your opinion may differ.

Thanks everyone.  I did load and try both of them.  Zorbec's seemed much more in depth to me, but my pea brain had difficulty with the complexity of it.  I may come back to it later when I am looking for something more robust, but for now the online version from the online game works fine for me.  Much better than trying to do it by hand.  I was able to load the program simply enough and within a matter of minutes I was building decks with the sorting features.  Very nice.  Thanks.

I have a small culture and event themed binder. Many of my cards I store in sleeved decks safely protected in small insulated boxes.

Some of those decks I don't even play with. I call them "reserve decks". Most of my cards will be in mint condition 60 years from now or when I pass on, whichever comes soonest.
