1000 Blank White Cards - We broke the game in 7 rounds

Yep, that's what happened. I guess I ought to add that to the recap...

ALSO.

You'll notice that in the corner of Magical Girl, there is a number for HP. Quick thing about that number:

New Rule- Cards with HP

Some ongoing cards that represent characters or other living things may have HP.  HP will typically be in multiples of 100, like point cards, and can be changed like another player's score can. A player may "attack" a card with HP by playing any score-reducing card on it rather than a player. Its HP is lowered by the amount of points that card would remove, but any other effects are ignored if there's no obvious way to apply them to it. You can likewise "heal" an HP card using a positive-point card( can't go beyond starting HP). If a card's HP is 0 or lower, destroy it.

Let's see how this plays out!

Mezike, you may go!

Oh yeah. BlueHairedMeerkat, how does this card combo with that other one? I know in some versions of 1KBWC the point cards stay in front of you and you just add them all up at the end, but I was going with the version where scores are kept independently of what happens to the cards, and score-changing cards just get discarded after applying the effect. Carbon Dating seems to be designed for the other version. How should I handle this?

Hmm... a bunch of blank cards ended up in the discards... I wonder if I can just sort of... reach over and take them for my own uses? No sense letting them go to waste! The deck might be getting a few more cards added next round, if the other players don't mind? I think the game could use some fresh material; I haven't recieved any new cards in a while. Is that alright with everyone?

Also, McBehrer, I've sent you a card.

Silverleaf's turn!

How about it stays in play and changes the score at the end of the game if it's still there, like it would if we were using the other rules?

Recap Time!

BlueHairedMeerkat's keboard had burst into flames, a victim of his own magic spell! He didn't panic, however, because any magician worth his pointy hat knows to take precautions against this sort of thing. A wave of the paw, and the enchantment was dismissed. Then he called forth a cute and spunky sidekick to assist him in his wizardry.

Mezike put two atoms out on a date, and made Silverleaf in charge. Let's hope nothing weird(er) happens, or she's gonna get the blame!

McBehrer, still sitting at a meager one-card hand, was forced to improvise. This benefitted everybody's score in no way whatsoever.

Silverleaf saw but one way to handle this: Ronway. He also did nothing helpful, but he's a pretty cool guy so who cares.

Status:

The deck has 22 cards remaining.

All players must make at least 1 train or smashing-related pun on their turns, or take a 500-point penalty. Each additional pun after the first is worth 100 points.▯

-Will gain 400 pts at the end of the game.▯

Also, seeing as two of our players have no cards in hand, I think I'll introduce a

New Rule- Extra Card Draw

A player may end their turn after recieving their card to get two more cards afterward.

BlueHairedMeerkat's turn!

Hee hee. Oh, this ought to be good.

Mezike, it's your turn.

New Rule: Replacing Blanks

Whenever you make a new card from a blank one, it's shuffled into the deck, right? But that means your hand will get smaller each time you contribute your creativity to the game! That's no fun! From now on, and retroactivly, I will send you a card for every card you add to the deck in this way.

So this means that I owe...

BlueHairedMeerkat: 3 cards

Mezike: 2 cards ( but he discarded his hand afterward)

McBehrer and Silverleaf: none

Tell me if I miscounted anyone's submissions.

A quick Google search reveals that Ubbi Dubbi is a pseudo-language similar to Pig Latin popularized by the TV Show Zoom. To speak it, put "ub" before each vowel sound, lubike thubis. Fubor ubexubampuble, "Hubbub" wubould bube "hububbubub"!

MubcBubehruber, yubour tuburn!

Alright, then. You get two cards and play passes to Silverleaf.

I do not count as a player unless a card is played saying otherwise.

Also:

60-point penalty: Failure to post in Ubbi-Dubbi

vvvAnd another -60pts for that one! (I obviously won't be counting any posts you make outside this thread, but all the ones you make here are under the Curse's influence)

Hey Silverleaf, you have just a bit more than an hour left to play a card before you lose your chance! After 5:27pm(Eastern Time), I'll end the round.

The father's sperm and the mother's egg combine into a single cell, which slowly developes into a fetus over a course of 11 months. When the fetus is ready to be born, the mother unhinges her jaw and the infant is forced out of her gaping mouth. A special set of muscles located just behind her toungue help with the delivery. Mothers are known to get odd cravings during the pregnancy, and may find themselves eating items such as baby clothes and blankets to improve the comfort of the child. These items are stored in the placenta organ so the baby may take its beloved luggage with it during birth.

Recap Time!

BlueHairedMeerkat, now free of the hex Mezike had bounced back at him, seized revenge by cursing him to speak only in Ubbi Dubbi or subuffuber thube cubonsubequubencubes. Mezike, unsure how to speak it, has so far lost 180 points in all. But, he escalated the fight by challenging his attacker to speak like a certain bard. Not Elan( who is still just cheerfully playing songs in Mezike's tree, Steve), but the Bard, the one famous for his rhythmically flowing prose:

Whate'er the Meer-kat types in here must be

Five pairs of syl-lables with ac-cent on

The last—pentam-eter iamb-ic,  see?

McBehrer decided to skip his turn to build up a hand again, while Silverleaf called forth an ally of her own: Some sort of feline creature that can almost get anything right. It explained to her the intricacies of childbirth.

And that marks the end of Round 5! Round 6 might be delayed as I will be getting my computer repaired. My best guess is about a week from now, sooo um... let's say Saturday? I might be able to run this game from a borrowed computer if I transfer the files keeping track of the board states and everything, but I certainly won't be able to run it as frequently.

I'm curious, how's everybody enjoyed the game so far?

My laptop seems to have made a last-minute recovery! I guess it'll need to fall off my bed a few more times before it's ready to go.

In the meantime, BlueHairedMeerkat, take your turn!

EDIT: Just thought I'd point out that this thread now has OVER 9000 views, making it the most-viewed thread in the Off-Topic section of ALL TIME. We even beat Ask Another Forumite by, at the time of this writing, over 1000 views! That's pretty neat. I guess there are quite a few spectators watching this game?

Don't worry, I've been taking blanks from the discards and turning them into whatever sorts of cards the game seems to need right now. So there're a couple "destroy a card" cards in the deck for you to find.
