	Official Apolyton Card Set Full PM-box? Change here!

Started as an idea, it is now an official reality.

A group of us are making all 52 cards, I made the design and am doing each image separately. Arnelos has done the full team list. Everyone is encouraged to submit a funny comment about any member of the cards, the comments once added, are very easily replaced.

I hope this takes away a bit of the tension and frictions in the team and gives way to a bit of laughter instead. It is a sign that this is a truly great team that we can resolve all quarrells with good debate, and end them with a good laugh.

oh wait, what's this? It seems our card set came with an extra unwanted joker card! Production quirk I guess!

btw, I need the following:

1) WhiteBandit's pre LOTR avatar
2) MrWIA's original Vegeta avatar before he started the avatar warz with UnO
3) Beta's original avatar OR his monkey avatar (I'd prefer the monkey avatar since it fits in to what I had planned to say about him)

ANYONE ELSE'S PRE LOTR AVATAR OR "ORGINAL" AVATAR IS ALSO WELCOME. You may post it here or sent it to me via e-mail "civ AT masterzen DOT net".

	Tired of ads?

yes, the first batch was done with the first that came to my mind. We've tried to make some order of it all, for example clubs are usually given to warmongers, diamonds to builders, hearts to particularly charismatic members etc.

These are, however, only general rules, and in essense, each member is tried to fit in as best as possible.

Anyway, thanks for Arnelos for making and revising the member list for about a million times today and also to WB for suggesting a couple of the member quotes (incluing my own)

MZ, I have a better resolution image for an avatar of the one I gave you for Beta's Al-Sahaf avatar. If you want, we can clean that one up a bit and make it larger.

FYI: Beta, if you want, I can send you that image for an actual avatar

Someone tell me what IS the significance of the Ace of Spades? I have whole songs about them and I still don;t know what they mean beyond being another Ace.

So I'm the Ace of Diamonds. Sweeeet. Diamonds are forever, AND a girl's best friend. Wait - that last part is kinda true....damnit! Always the best friend and not often anything more!

And I guess it also means I will be around for a Loooooong time.

You better believe it.

If Clubs are for warmongers, why the heck am I a Club, and the Club Queen at that!?!

The Ace of Spades is the strongest card in many card games, including (most importantly) Bridge.

Well, E_T had to be a Queen and he's the MoI... you were MoI and none of the queens are really hardcore warmongers. So you ended up with the Queen of Clubs

Oh, and the "clubs are for warmongers, diamonds are for builders" doesn't really work that well, though we made some attempts. The reason is that for every level, there isn't always a warmonger or a builder to fit the bill and often there are multiple warmongers at one level without any builders, and multiple builders at another without any warmongers.

We just sorta decided to only loosely pay attention to suit (though for the four people at the same level, we'd move them around to get the mix among those four that seemed about right).

It's also still fluid. I can't even count the number of times we've moved people around on this list, mostly because I forgot a few important people that we then had to insert

You're the Jack of Spades, man (Jack of Diamonds is Kloreep, btw).

You'll note he called Beta a "co-founder", implying you'll get your due
