[mod] :: [deck help]

Big mod post time. Lots of things to cover here real quick.

1. Yes, comments have been turned off on the deck suggestion posts. Why? Because people were not paying attention to the mod warning at the top of the entry. Do not comment means DO NOT COMMENT! End of story.

2. Are deck & series suggestion entries opening soon? Yes and no. We have at least two more deck tables including the set below for releases before they'll be reopened. When we have a better idea of the timing for that and my wedding is over, THEN they may reopen. This means nothing will change with them before the first week of October. Until anything else is said about it, stop asking.

3. A new adjustment is being made on pending decks as well. Typically we have enough name suggestions and images within a few days, let alone a week or more to finish any decks. However, there have been some pending decks that have only had half of their materials provided for awhile now, so we can't make them. The new rule is this:

If we do not have full deck materials (names and images) within a few weeks time, the deck will be canceled and REMOVED from the pending deck chart.

This means if you really do want the deck, you need to CONTRIBUTE to get it made. Once it has been removed from the list, you will have to wait to be able to submit it in the deck suggestion entries when they open and see if they get the FIVE required votes to make it after.

4. Just to make sure it's clear here, the new vote count to put a new deck on the pending list is FIVE votes once the suggestion entries reopen, not the previous three that it was before.

With those points covered, please see details below for what we need on the new deck making list.

GENERAL COMMENTS

◊ Please try to include as many, if not all, images and name suggestions in ONE comment. This saves my poor inbox that already gets massively abused as is. ;;

◊ If we're not asking for images or names specifically for a certain character, please don't give them to us anyways. They've already been provided/named in that case or it's not up to be made with the current batch, so please focus on what is actually on the lists. Thanks!

NAME SUGGESTIONS

◊ Please remember to include brief explanations on your name suggestions. Otherwise I have no clue what the reasoning behind your name is, let alone what to put on the wiki if we use it.

◊ Please also remember that there is a very limited amount of space for names on the cards. Long names (about 8+ characters) are just not practical or useful here. ^^;;

IMAGE CONTRIBUTIONS

◊ If you're getting all of your images from specific sites (ie court records, ratemyserver, anime galleries, etc), please tell me which site with your submissions.

◊ When submitting images ZIP or RAR files are best. These are best hosted on either sendspace or megaupload for me. Other hosts hurt my internet, especially when I'm stuck on dial-up at home. I will not even bother with your files if I either can't download them or they require me to download each image individually. ;;

◊ Please NAME your zip or rar files by the name of the CHARACTER (and series if you wish) you are submitting for. Otherwise it's easy for me to get files mixed up and confused. Organization is majorly helpful here. ^^;;

◊ Unless otherwise stated we need around 30+ HIGH QUALITY IMAGES (like this or this) for any given deck. Please let me know how many images are in your contribution.

◊ Tiny and/or grainy images (like this or this) are of no use to the deckmakers and are a waste of download time and our time to go through and delete them. This can also mean that we end up not having enough materials when we should because the images we're given are crappy. Please DO NOT GIVE THEM TO US! ;;
