Umbra Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 "When this card is tuned' date=' get one Level 4 to your hand." is a fully acceptable effect according to Mr. Spaplespon here. I'm still disagreeing.[/quote'] I said that concept and effect mattered... and that is just s***. Plus, what I said was similar to what Icy said in the first place, but I don't see you disagreeing with him. Know why? Because you know that he'll pwn your ass so hard you won't be able to feel it for a month. I am disagreeing with Icy, and he knows of that. By saying that concept and effect matter, you are in effect saying that everything else can be disregarded - except for proper grammar. What you don't seem to realize is that OCG is grammar, a separate grammar used only on cards - hence the name. Saying that OCG isn't important is equal to saying that grammar isn't important.

Do you see what I'm trying to get at here? It's very unlikely, but yes, it could happen. If the writer focuses enough on the card to make perfect OCG, the card is most likely quite good as well. Also, if the OCG is "fairly sloppy" then the card isn't extremely good - decent, at the very most. But I see what you mean, and I concur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoshIcy Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Ok... Just to set this straight. I believe OCG should be enough to communicate the effect. Like what Wolf said, just a little more laid back. And not as strict as Nitton. But of course, the more complex the effect is, the stricter I get. Which is when I do like OCG corrections.

Freeshooter Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 as long as the OCG is 90% perfect; i would say ppl shouldn't b****' date=' because most likely it was a typo. like Hand vs hand shouldn't make u shoot ur RAEG juice.[/quote'] I concur, Wolf.

Frlf Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Effects > OCG. Seriously, if some card had the greatest effect ever, but he had bad OCG, would that be a bad card? No wai. inb4Igetcontradicted Still, the thing needs to be understandable. Minor errors for me, are trivial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscar. Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 yes because ocg can effect how the card is worded making sense to you how it is written but not other people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Shore Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 As a member I focus a lot of my card making and card rating on OCG. However, I think that originality is more important. The problem with OCG is that it provides a technical grounds for rating so that you don't actually have to think about the card. Don't just rate the OCG, but by all means make it part of your rating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man0waR Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Its imortant. Just imagine the following effect: "Once per Turn! Obliterate all enemy cards on TRH field!! At the end of your trns!! Kill all enemy cards!!! And when your done!! Kill all cards on deck!!" Yes. Important ocg is important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Valentine Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 In my opinion it is because one of the main points of this website is to post realistic looking cards (pop culture or Realistic) and hone your card making abilities without correct ocg that is not achivable and also wierd looking cards are not very nice to look at :D THANKS FOR YOUR OPINIONS IM SURE EVERYONE CARES ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU DON'T CARE TO USE PROPER GRAMMAR WHILE DISCUSSING GRAMMAR.
