This is my take on a satire trading card set inspired by Garbage Pale Kids

(Edit1) I now think that I am going to take this to the next level. I am envisioning an open source card game. By this I mean providing proper formated images and instructions for optimal printing. You can then print at home on what ever paper, or take to a local store or them inter-nets to print out a proper card-stock card.

(Edit2) Thats it! I taking this to the next level. I am going to start a thread soon when I have exhausted the rest of the cards that I have done. I plan on asking the community about various rules and points and powers and such to add to each card.

(Edit3) Boom! Once again___Take N it to the Nxt LEVHAL. I plan one getting an app-built that will proper format a playing card. This will let anyone make a card to add to the game. You just have to lay the ground rules on types of cards you want to use.

(Edit4) Shazip!! Next level shit here... I want to find a way to incorporate this into a blockchain somehow. (edit. most excellent plan to be revealed later)

Haha, some of these are pretty clever.  Who is going to make the China Gov't card?

How did Dorian scam?
1) Almost none of us would know him if it wasn't for Newsweek mag.
2) He didn't ask for a collection to be started, he just wanted to eat lunch (I think)

Edit: His "scam" is denial that he was (possibly) part of a team that created BTC. (For example, "I don't communicate with Bitcoins anymore")

Satire my friend.

This one really got me laughing, thanks for that man and keep em coming! BTW Charlie Shrem is not a supervillian just because broheem wanted to smoke some dope! Everybody loves weed fool this is 2014 not 1914!

I'm amused.  :)

Ty

This is amazing, I want to tip you lol

Positive feedback from a supervillain is cool, good job.  :)
JohnnyBTCSeed, I think you misspelled villain as "villian" (on the earlier ones), Gavin's looks right...I think.

You're right I did(edit-fixed). I was hoping nobody would notice as I did one real fast and then as sloppy as I could copy and pasted over it and made a couple. These are just proof of concept. I updated the op with an interesting idea though to take this further. Evil LOL

These are great! Reposted over at Litecointalk (I want to see what Charlie says about his haha).

Max Kaiser should be a villain for pumping and dumping max coin

Charlie lee - bitcoin for fat people ? Makes no sense

Dorian make me Lol but I wouldn't consider him a villain , he should be the "free lunch card"

Max is not on trial in this world for max coin yet. Hmmm Maybe the evil bizzarro maxcoin max, the one who won't STFU about maxcoin.

bitcoin for fat people is a horrible joke....lol -----lite coin,,,, bitcoin lite..... :)


I think the free lunch card is going to be dorian's power. Thanks for the suggestion. Ie: When playing you maybe mistake him for the real satoshi and decide to pay homage to him.

I know who the other guys are, but who is Mike Caldwell? I haven't heard of him before. Did he do some really good shit?

This is excellent fun. Need moar Phinnaeus Gage, Satoshi, Mircea Popescu, Kens Laughter, Bitpop, Vod, theymos...

HAHAHA

Very nice!!!!!!!!

Keep it up!

As long as you don't make an exchange to trade your cards and then later turn it into a crappy, poorly coded bitcoin exchange that loses everyone's money, then all is well.   ;D

creator of the Casacius Physical Bitcoin series of coins

Thanks. Fixed

Ok I was going to leave this topic alone but I just started laughing when I saw the Keiser card
This is  a neat idea for some users on the forums to combat with XD

I can see it now
Max Keiser versus Mircea

 :o

is this for real?

Not convinced this is Sunny?

this stuff is great  ;D

Ah small fix here the name is Mircea not Mirsea  :D
Mircea Popescu  Mirsea  Popescu  
That said still awesome hehe the miscopies should be rare editions XD

Thanks- Fixed

I'm so happy I stumbled across this thread. You really have something here.  ;D


I couldn't agree with you more. Before this fiasco I used to respect his opinion, but now I can't even stand to look at his face. Instead of using his fame and influence for the good of cryptocurrency he used it to make a few bucks for himself and his friends.  >:(

Anyways, I look forward to seeing what cards come next. Cheers!  8)

I always wondered if there should be dark hero cards
That said the crypto kidz trading cards classify based on a hero and villain system so can't have those type of hybrids
Kind of like a Magneto that said this is still a fun thread :)

Haha this thread is a great!

someone should make some high quality novelty cards and sell them for the cost of making them to the community.  I'd buy some!

Mircea/Mirsea spelling error.  Hell, if it can work for casacius coin's why the hell not?!  This card will probably be worth 150-225% of what the 'corrected card' will be worth long term :p

seeing as the bitinstant crew are playing:

Lol I really like how far this has come, we should make an official game.

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa,

You are totally showing up this thread with your photo-shop skills.   :P What is it that you are using; one of those jpegs?

Mine are all gif. lol

Actually, those look very nice! You haz the skillz.


I love it, when the 3 bitinstant cards are in your hand you get some extra thing that happens.

Yes, thats the plan, see OP.

Also, the first series will be done when the last two cards are released. (I have lots more planned before that though)



Last 2 cards will be

Theymos

and

Satoshi

my 3 plain cards are worth this one gold card

http://i60.tinypic.com/2mo2e1l.png

anyone want my goldcard. ill trade it for 1 bitstamp gold card, a bitpay gold card, or the rare satoshi card (i think there is only in existance, there may be a group of them, we just dont know)

Because Franky1 raised the bar so high, my cheap graphics just aren't going to cut it any more. So this is a preview of what is coming.

i used microsoft publisher. but even microsoft word will do the same thing

rounded rectangle (white-lightgray gradient fill background)
word art for names
image insert
6 rectangles
[lightgray][lightgray]
[medium gray][medium gray]
[lightgray][lightgray]

then for the gold one.. just change main background from white-lightgray to gold gradiant and 6 rectangles to different shades of gold. took 2 minutes

I'm using LibreOffice Draw.

I had this idea a long time ago ....I'll see if I can dig up the old btcthread  but ya its  fun lol

I like the original cards and although I'm not opposed to change I hope you're going to keep the pics on cards. The pictures embody a sense of the person in a way that doesn't come across as well with just the text alone.

ok the mythical satoshi card isnt gold, its platinum and beveled

http://i58.tinypic.com/351sabq.png

cool, except why does Satoshi look like an egg sitting on top of a tombstone?  :D

I had a more creative interpretation and thought he kind of looked like Slenderman

Not sure what Satoshis image should look like myself

You should consider adding a set of character stats as well...ala old school D&D style.  (if doing a game that is)

str
int
wis
dex
con
chr

Assign hitpoints as well as bitcoin mana (for casting spells and whatnot)
