Release 016 - August
♥ News ♥
Ah, LJ. Despite LJ being down for quite a few days, I saw that a lot of us were still trying to get on! I kept refreshing pages trying to get all the comments to load so I could reply to them, but that didn't work very well at all. I then went through my email and searched for comment notifications so I could reply that way, haha. I sure wish I could've made myself stay away from LJ instead of checking back as often as I did. Hopefully things have returned to normal (though comment notifications seem a little late at the moment) and we can return to our regular schedule.
I've changed the layout to feature Tobi-han! :D Though hm, it would have been more fitting to have his layout up by July, it being the seventh month and all. But ah well, here's to adventuring for two months. ♥
We have two concurrent Art/Fic Submission posts going on right now. Our usual one and our Asobot Initiative one. Do contribute some fic and art! :D I'm hoping to make at least one Colors Universe character deck (of the characters that don't have decks yet!) for next month's release, so if you'd like your art to be included, better act fast. XD; Also, remember Contest 010 closes on August 18! That's in two weeks!
Here's a zip of this month's cards. For previous zips, please visit this link on the website.
♥ Portfolios ♥
edit: I forgot to mention that you are now allowed to modify portfolios you sign up for once per portfolio. Moon and I discussed how best to help players who end up with portfolios that have decks that might be too difficult to collect, especially for newer members. We still want everyone to be careful in picking decks for portfolios, so we cannot have players changing entire portfolios, but here are modification specifics that we settled on that we hope will be helpful for players!If you have not mastered 3 decks in your portfolio after a month, you may ask to have up to three of the decks on your Portfolio changed (only once per portfolio). If you already started off with three decks mastered in your portfolio, you may not have any decks changed.
Good luck everyone, with your Portfolios! <3

The coding of this post is thanks to Skie! o7 The coding of our secondary card lists (cards2 and cards3) are thanks to Moon. :)
This month, I called on Tari and Skie for some backup deckmaking help. If you would like to offer backup help with deck making, leave us a comment with samples of your cards here at this post if you haven't already done so already. I think I will ask nearer to the end of the month about people's availability to be sure you're available right away, since availability does change, and it's usually the last minute decks that we need the most help with! :3
Thank you players and mods alike for sticking around! I hope everyone has a great August. See you in September!
