  1. This marks like...what? The fourth time I try this? I try to merge the kid's thread, my thread gets eaten. I try to merge mine, mine gets eaten. But...yeah. Broken and overpowered cards go here. I see zero effort trash, it goes here. You want to share busted or silly cards? You can post them here with no qualms from me.

  2. Fastest drawing I've done in a while. A small local art contest I was almost 2 hours late to and had a little over an hour and a half to do, and not knowing what I was gonna draw until a couple minutes after sitting down in my chair

  4. S-sooooo I've got some requests pending.... Yes I huh... haven't forgotten or forsaken it, but life has given me a tough time after my last contest sooooo sorry for the delay everybody. I actually have been keeping in my head that I shouldn't draw anything until I take care of those, but months are starting to pile up and I very much need to de-stress in some way. Here's an unrelated doodle I made. One of my characters for my comic that's a work in progress. Shelly the witch (mother of the purple hair witch you've probably seen me draw a ton). She travels around the world looking for foreign magic systems. Stuff from other cultures or that are a bit alien to the magic system in my project. That's the context of her testing this watch that is like a power rangers morpher.

  5. OMG she's super cute, I really like her design n.n I request that you make her a Leader in your TCG and make an archetype of knitted monsters. If by chance you think: but her attire has nothing to do with the TCG, you can just give her some sort of Magical Girl-ish costume and we all will be happy. Mini skirt powaa. And talking about Magical Girls, here's my finished drawing of Cocoa. Made to celebrate, as it says in the image, the first anniversary of the server of my club

  8. Happy Birthday, @Tinkerer! This was VERY rushed. I spent the span of 2 hours drawing this. Because 5 is all I could afford on this workday. And I only found out it was your birthday on my shift. But I wanted to see if I could throw something together that you might like.

  10. Davante The Psylexic Earth Boy Third in the Mother drawing series comes the young lad, Davante. I'd like to start his profile by mentioning that you shouldn't be fooled by his stern appearance, he's a truly kind boy, but he has many problems in life, and often hides them behind a facade of grouchiness and confidence that unfortunately for him, easily falls apart. He lives together with his older sister, the person he loves the most in the world, in the Parasol's Shade, a small district part of the Amagocoey Regime, one of the great... realms of the world, as I'm missing a better word to call them rn. Mmm... I guess I'd had to go into spoiler territory to be able to explain this in detail, so I'll try not to. As mentioned in my first drawing, Mother 3's ending is open to interpretation. The world could have been saved, or it could have been destroyed... or something else. This last is what I chose to believe. At the point where this story unfolds, an indeterminate, but large amount of time has passed since Mother 3's ending. The world changed, and became inhabited again, far and wide. But the government system became different from before. You see, during the cataclysm that ensued during the last moments of Mother 3, a large quantity of PSI energy was spread throughout Earth, surfacing from the womb of the planet. This energy held the memory of the planet. In time, people started finding fragments of this PSI energy, which crystallized into some round objects of different sizes, but on average close to a baseball, impossible to describe how they felt to the touch, these pulsating purplish fragments came to be known as Spores (<-- wanna find a better name). The Spores were fundamental in the development of the world. You got to understand that after the cataclysm, the world was pretty much resettled to 0, so it's possible it would have taken millennia for the few humans that were left to recover civilization as it was even though they held certain level of knowledge. Thanks to the Spores, the span of time required was reduced greatly. When you touch a Spore... welp, it will depend on the person, but normally, it won't go beyond experimenting a groovy journey, a la cannabis. But some people will see more clearly than others. And those better suited to absorb the Spore's "message" were able to understand how to build civilization. Those on top of this ability to discern the Spores were, as you've probably guessed, PSI users. I feel like I have explained too much about the system without talking about Davante, so let's just say the current world is a crazy mixture of ancient civilizations, getting along (or not) with the others. This is because Spores tend to group with their kind, and once they were deciphered by PSI users (considered by certain people as prophets/chosen people/messiah/etc) humans from the group of that PSI user were able to build back the civilization described by their leader. None of them, which right now are called Regimes, are 100% loyal to their counterparts of the past, because no matter how clear the information a Spore holds is, it's still bound to interpretation, and PSI user power is variable and unstable. The Amagocoey Regime, then, was Davante's home. What the hell is Amagocoey? Can't you tell? Welp, it's Amazon, Google, Coca-Cola, Disney, all in one word xD. Yes, I'm serious (and not). These brands are omni-present in our modern world, so I felt like it would be a good wink. So yeah, the area were Davante lives is similar to our modern world, hence his appearance. But in other regions of the world, you will find Regimes based on Mesopotomia, another based Egypt, another based on the Victorian Age, etc., and not necessarily in regions that match their geographical locations in our world, so don't be surprised if you see Ice-block Pyramids somewhere near the north Pole surrounded by white desert, or the Regime of Silk, Gunpowder and Printing in the middle of the jungle. Yeah, the world is kinda bonkers. So, as you can see in the drawing, Davante is a PSI user. Does that mean he is treated as a messiah and lives with all honours inside a palace full of commodities, waiting in a comfy divan to be brought more Spores to decipher and guide their people while he stuffs himself with the best food? Not at all. Because Davante is both dyslexic and psylexic. Touching a Spore is hell for him, as he receives a barrage of incomprehensible and chaotic lights and sounds that hurt his head terribly. Keeping a Spore to oneself is an extremely grave crime by worldwide law, but once they have been deciphered, they're discarded and either sold or put in lottery for the masses. Certain people have the privilege of having one, and it's a prized treasure indeed (yeeep, because of the groovy journeys I mentioned). But when Davante was invited to touch one, he suffered a lot, and this was seen as a sacrilege to other people. Mix that with his constant troubles at school due to his dyslexia, and we have a bully target. On top of that, Davante has no parents. They vanished. Are they dead? Nobody knows for sure. Their job, which is Sporologist (archeologist, but of Spores, duh) took them to deep caverns and other mysterious places. One day, they didn't return from an expedition. So, both Davante and his sister, Brianna, work as part-timers to sustain themselves, but this causes greater trouble for Davante because he's usually behind at school. Chapter 1 (remember, Zheon and Stella's episode is the prologue) starts by showing Davante in the clearing of a forest in the outskirts of the Parasol's Shade. Let me tell you that he hates PSI. He believes that it's PSI the cause of his dyslexia and his trouble with Spores, and would like to get rid of it. Then how come he's actually hidden in the clearing, training his PSI? He's not a fool, idealistic boy. He knows his "curse" won't go away simply by wishing, so he's training his powers with the hope that, by mastering them, his dyslexia will diminish. And the training is going well! Before knowing it, he has twigs, leaves and rocks circling around him, and he even dares to chuckle, impressed by his work. And everything falls to the ground when a delighted shout is heard: "Caught you red-handed, Special One!!" The band of stupid boys that bully him find him. Caught in the moment, Davante didn't see them coming. But wait, people knowing he actually possesses PSI is not a good thing? No. The problem is, I've been talking about PSI users as the cuspid of society, but I never said they used their PSI publicly. I'm finding it hard for me to justify this happened, but PSI users kept most of their powers to themselves and only showed them to their closest circle. The public doesn't know the extent of their powers, they just think they're able to "talk" with the spores. So, people wielding strange powers unrelated to Spores are seen as weirdos. The band of bullies surround Davante and jeer at him, while calling him "Special One". He hates that, and they know it. His sister Brianna often defends him from the bullies and calls his lil' dear brother that, so the bullies use it ironically to pester him. But after some jeering, they get serious. They feel like he's some kind of monster, and should really be disposed of. I don't know to which extent, but they meant no good. Scared, Davante reacts by instinct when their circle on him and uses his PSI to knock one of them down with a nice rock telekinesis strike on the face. Their circle broken, he runs for dear life. They laugh as they go after him. What, he trips with a branch or rock and falls to the ground like in most movies? Nah, it's just that Davante's physical condition is not too great either xD. And they catch him. Knocked down on the floor, he receives some kicks. He's too scared and confused, he can't concentrate to use his PSI to retaliate. He's curled on the ground, trembling and bracing himself for the next set of kicks, when one of the bullies shout. "Hey, what the bloody hell is THAT!?" A meteor? Damn, a METEOR, RUUUUUN! The others scream. Still very shaken, the body battered and weak, Davante manages to kneel on the floor. He watches the upcoming meteor half believing it's not possible. "So, that's the end?" The meteor comes at great speed, becoming bigger by the moment. Davante glances back. The bullies' silhouettes can be barely seen, but at the speed the meteor is moving, they might very well get caught in the explosion as well. "Like I care. Serves them right". Next thing he notices, Davante is using every single ounce of his power to try to stop the meteor. The face of his sister keeps popping on his mind. His parents, next. And even the bullies. He hates them. Oh, he hates them so much. Add yet, Davante is just too kind. "I can't let this happen" He almost faints. His arms extended and eyes closed, his body is drained from almost every drop of PSI. Nosebleeding and dizzy, he opens his eyes. He did it! (surprising, huh?). The meteor lies four or five meters from him, sizzling and crackling. "Ehhh.... eh?.... EHHHHH!!?? It's not a meteor... it's... an UFO. Finding strength from who knows where, Davante jumps to his feet and runs behind a tree. The strange space artifact steams and bubbles. Davante's instinct is screaming "Run like the devil is chasing you", but curiosity has him pinned behind the tree. What to do? What to do? What to do? GAAASP! A loud clank, and then a hatch in the shuttle opens. A metallic ladder crashes onto the ground. Oh dang, Aliens, Oh, goddammit, alieeeens! A small feet appears, clad in a silvery boot. Then the same boot slips and the owner comes down rolling onto the floor! Davante witnesses the majestic advent of Aliens to Earth, flabbergasted. The alien twirls on the dirt and suddenly it's on all fours. Watching eagerly around, the alien scratches the soil enthusiastically, then it starts pulling some grass and throwing it into the air, happily. Then they watch a flower, completely mesmerized. And almost as mesmerized is Davante. With the mouth open, drooling without even noticing, the boy keeps staring at the playful alien. He moves his feet and a twig breaking resounds. The alien notices Davante's presence... and runs behind the shuttle. Silence. The purple haired head of the alien pops from the right of the shuttle. Davante's head pops from the left of the tree. They both notice and hide again... and this repeats... three times. Then the purple haired head appears for the fourth time... and winks. Davante's heart missed a beat. Then the alien timidly and slowly left her hideout. Standing there, a couple of meters from a small space ship, Stella smiled to Davante. And Davante couldn't help it: He smiled back. Thus, the Girl that Came from the Stars and the Psylexic Earth Boy met, and fates intertwined, they would in time start a journey to... guess what? Save the world! Original. Or... could it be there's more to it? Weird fact: In Mother 2, there's a song called Boy Meets Girl. I know this will sound weird, but somehow a variation of that song exists in my mind. When I imagine the cute meeting of Stella and Davante, I play that song in my mind. If one day I learn how to compose music, I might try to compose that one. Arrrgh, I've extended myself too much, nobody's gonna read this, so just one more thing, like with the others: In Battle: Davante is unlike the boys in the Mother series, which are very strong physically and have mostly healing PSI. His psylexia make his PSI unstable (not really reflected in the pattern I drew, guess I blundered it there, but I remembered too late and said, this looks good xD). Though he's rather durable, Stella's physical attacks are stronger. Then what makes using Davante good? Well, his PSI is a crazy mess. Instead of being 100% offensive or supportive, it often causes a combination of effects. He's able to mess with the turn order, steal critical hits or SMAAAAASH attacks from enemies, reverse/transfer certain statuses and stat changes, even alter weaknesses and resistances, or change attack patterns. In short, Davante's PSI is a bit situational, but easily some of the most devastating if used correctly, better at times even than simple strong attacking PSI, balancing his not-so spectacular stats. His special command, [Spore-Adic] allows him see the future, but mwahaha, I'll elaborate on this in other opportunity.

  12. Hello all, I have recently seen alot of custom cards on this platform and using my extensive coding knowledge I have learned how to script cards for the game EDOPro. If you are interested in being able to use your custom cards/archetypes you can message me, and I can do so for you. I have been wanting to do this for a while now and it seems like it would be interesting for me. If you are interested, send me a message with, the card/cards names, what archetype they are a part of, the effects of the cards (written well), and the card art. If you do this I can get them scripted within a week at the most, depending on the size or amount of cards as well as the complexity of the cards. This would specifically be for EDOPro as YGOOmega is a little weird. Also you would only be able to use the cards for yourself or with others on LAN as long as they also have the cards. I also can help you if you need any help putting the cards in the correct location and such. I hope to hear from some people, cheers!

  13. Hello, fine peoples! Do you have an idea for a card/series/archetype, but don't have the time to finish it? Want to get some ideas out of your head, but don't have the right wording/art for the card(s)? You've come to the right place! This topic is for people to post ideas for cards/archetypes without having to commit to actually making the cards for it. This thread can also be used to figure out preliminary wording for a gimmick or simply posting concepts that they think would be fun, but can't make for various reasons. You may also use this thread to post pictures that you want to turn into cards. Basically, you can use this thread to tinker with any ideas you have before committing them to their own thread. Rules As usual, site rules apply. If you come up with multiple ideas before the normal bump limit (6 hours) and no one else has posted since your last post, please edit your previous post with your new idea. Do not post multiple times unless you do so after the normal bump limit. If you see another person's idea that you like, ask them if you could use it and credit them appropriately for the idea. If said user has not been on the site for more than ten days, you can use their idea without messaging them, but make sure to credit them in your thread. Cheers!

  14. A quick guide to creating custom cards/archetypes - Part 1 The first thing you want to do is to think about what you want your archetype to do. This is like an idea that you make. A custom archetype starts with an idea. It doesn't have to be a very complicated one. Next, you want to use that idea that you have come up with, and implement that idea. For example, an idea could be "monsters that get stronger the less cards you have in your Main Deck". In that case, Pot of Desires can be an excellent tech to the deck. In order to implement that idea, you'd want card/effects to thin your deck size and or recycle, because if you have 0 cards in your deck and it is your Draw Phase, you lose the game. However, you'd also want to ask yourself, "How would I thin out my deck?". The point is to keep the idea simple so that it is easier to execute, and then stick with that idea. Another example is Union monsters, which open a galaxy for you to explore (e.g. contact fusion w/ Union monsters whose Fusion are Unions themselves which are summoned by sending main deck unions you control to the GY to Special Summon those.). You also want to stick with the same idea throughout the archetype creation process. If not, your archetype will become incoherent and not perform well. If you can pick 4-6 cards in your archetype and your opponent can see that the other cards do the same thing, it is coherent. Otherwise it is incoherent. Incoherent archetypes tends to brick more often. If one idea does not suit you, or that idea causes your archetype to be hard to execute to the point where it does not work, try another idea and see that if it suits you. Keep in mind that custom archetypes are a way to experiment. Now for Costs These are resources that you must give up in order to do something. Costs in Yugioh can include the following (in general, anything that comes before the ; is a cost): Discarding Tributing from hand/field Send from field/hand to GY Return from field to hand Banish from GY Paying LP shuffle from field/GY into deck

"Draw Primal Kyogre within 15 minutes based on the official artwork". I was like FUUU because I was in the middle of something, but I managed to finish like a mad man and made this in 8 minutes. And welp... I won xD

  32. Alright. I took care of the bots. So I'll provide an actual answer to this question: Could be better. Physically, I feel I'm better than I was at the time this thread was originally posted. Been sleeping better, exercising, eating a little better. Mentally? Room for improvement. I've been unsuccessful in my job hunt for example

  33. Now as much as I love this website it hurts me to see people arguing over some of the silliest shit. Like y'all need to calm down, clear your heads and overall, just find some common ground. We're all respectable Yugioh fans and this a community where we're supposed to get together and just post fun shit not a community we just get to burn to the ground because we can't see eye to eye. So please at least try and talk it out. make a forum where you can teach people to draw or something like that but don't go for each other's throats because y'all can't get along.

  34. Hey, all, here after a long absence. This is a good thread with several good points. I just want to suggest we consider another important dimension to the problem and/or its solution, which some would say is always the most important one: money. People (in companies, usually, but that doesn't matter) make money on the internet - a lot of money - and have a very strong interest in keeping the internet functional. The problem of AI slop clogging up the internet reminds me of decades ago when people were convinced, based on a lot of evidence, that spam was going to destroy email. It didn't, because corporations had a strong interest in keeping email functional, and used the same tech of the time to create spam filters that work SO much better now than they did back then. I really think that there will be a LOT of people-based effort to keep bot-generated content distinguishable from real content, and that in turn will keep the internet useful. I'm actually old enough to have taken a course in college called "Intro to Artificial Intelligence" decades ago, long before machine learning was a thing. "Expert systems" in the 1980s were going to replace everything from government administrators to nuclear power plant operators because they were so "smart." But we gradually learned that "AI" really never meant true intelligence the way it works in our heads, and has for all this time really just meant "code that does things that we're not used to seeing code do." So the definition of AI always shifts - as we get used to computers doing something tolerably well, it doesn't seem "intelligent" anymore. Unfortunately, attention-grabbing terms like "AI" are very useful for flashy marketing - "Artificial Intelligence" sells in a way that "glorified autocomplete" doesn't. My point is, just because it is doing things we haven't seen computers do before (at least, as well as now) it doesn't mean that it does what our brains do. Nor that we'll necessarily ever get there - there is SO much that our brains can do that no computers can, even today, nor in the foreseeable future! Now of course it's true that automation is going to cost people jobs, often jobs that we consider as requiring a lot of training, practice, and skill. Automation has always been a challenge to our social order. That was true in the 1870s when the automation was done by steam and gears; it was true in the 1980s, when travel agents got slowly but surely replaced by algorithms on travel sites; heck, we had stock-photography websites "putting artists out of business" back then. And it's true now with "AI". But there are still craftspeople doing every kind of work by hand, and there are still travel agents, and there will always be writers and illustrators -- though their markets and yes, maybe their tools, will change. So I agree that there's a very big shift in the works due to the advances in tech right now, but I think I'm more optimistic than many that it won't be the "end of the internet" nor the end of humanity.

  41. So, I made this artwork for Loleo's contest. As I was saying over there, it's the first time I make something 100% on my PC (also without the aid of a graphic tablet hence why this sucks lol). Nah, I'm kinda proud of it, I know it's not super inventive and it's kinda eww in general (I'm definitely unsure about the rinbow-y thingy but I ended up not deleting it).but damn.. it's... not that bad. I love surrealism, so yeah, some unnerving music entity that you casually meet at desert or something xD

  42. Here's my first post of the year and a bit of a necrobump to my club to remind everybody that it is still very much ok to use this space..... unless the staff comes here to tell me otherwise because it's been like 3 months xP but *cough well... focus has been in trying to provide activity across the forum with the Christmas event and contests. I know so far YCM isn't exactly thriving but I am very much confident that every project in the last couple months has contributed to helping the site stay alive a little bit brighter. Well without waiting much longer, I'm dropping this "Fun Fun Fusion" artwork I made to commemorate my little contest: I know I have a dozen other drawings unfinished and then here I am popping up with something that's none of them xD but like, this one was easier to do hehe ***laughs nervously***

  46. Welcome to the club~ These are so cool. the first one gives me a vibe of Final Fantasy, and the second one I very much dig the aesthetic of, and the details like the braid in her haircut. Realistic Drawing always becomes a bit of an "uncanny valley" until one day it doesn't. Just look at my awfully drawn request of "Maria la del Barrio" (a character from an old Mexican Telenovela) Though just 1 single attempt at realism later I can say it is at least better than the previous one xD
