You Make the Set 7

[Thomas David Baker]

After a little informal discussion I think it's time for You Make the Set 7.

We've done this a few times before. As always anyone is welcome to contribute as much or as little as they'd like.

Saturday October 12th looks like the date for the official draft to me as there is no TGC event and it's before I am off to the US.

I'm a little vague on exactly what You Make the Set means this time around. Here are some options.

1. Invent some cards, send them to me, I'll print the lot, we show up on October 12th having not really seen each others designs and having not tested and we draft them.
2. Design a set on Multiverse with a little editing and feedback and tweaking and set mechanics. With a deadline of three weeks it will necessarily be a little rough but something less free-for-all than (1).
3. Bring together classic Magic cards with some (how many?) new designs of our own to make a sweet set to draft. Evoke meets Landfall meets Blind Seer.

   Additionally, if we are having a theme, I'm not sure which theme we like out of:

   1. Whatever you like/no theme.
   2. Wedges.
   3. Lands.
   4. Top-down Egyptian theme with Sphinxes, Pyramids, Mummies, Jackal-headed creatures, etc.
   5. Some other theme I haven't thought of

   I'm inclined to go with 2 (multiverse) and D (Egyptian) or maybe 3 (classic cards) and C (lands) but what do you think?

[Daniel Waine]

I can do any time really. Although Tuesday would be better.

[Thomas David Baker]

So is there anyone from our group that CAN'T make TUESDAY 15th at the County?

Jim has set up a Cube event on Saturday at Brewdog in Shoreditch on Facebook. I've invited those of you whom I am fb friends with. If anyone else wants an invite, friend me. I suppose I'll probably print and bring these cards to that and play it by ear.

[Simon O'Keeffe]

When do you need our cards by then Tom?

I can probably finish mine tonight. Don't think I will have reached 72 though! (at about 60)

Tomorrow is the deadline if you want me to print them for Satruday I guess!

[Kieran Symington]

So thanks to a stomach bug I've managed to complete 75 cards and give them some semi-appropriate art stolen from Towerfall. Now I just need to get them to Tom by tomorrow!

[Kieran Symington]

Got a temporary internet connection and sent my 75 over now. Bring it on! (Best card in my set - a 0/8 Jellyfish. Obviously).

[Simon O'Keeffe]

Jellyfish are sweet. Everyone loves Deepwater Grasper!

I'll send mine over tonight. I don't have any jellyfish though. My major creature types are: human, bird, hound, snake, lizard (crocodile), and cat. My cards are also the set a yet unused Future Sight mechanic comes from!

[Paul Hodgson]

I'm still plugging away at mine, need to get some art and some more inspiration! 

[Daniel Waine]

I should be finished some time in the afternoon tomorrow if that's ok. Some of my art sources might be a bit strange though.
