Belated type-up of a deck Sandy came up with a while ago; Chess Plus, a combination of Dvorak cards and a standard game of chess. It plays very nicely -...
Busy day. First up; Devouring Horrors. Stuck for inspiration the other evening, we took a random sentence fragment from ravenblack.net/random/surreal.html...
Hmm.. interesting... I have to wonder who's played Knightmare Chess I and/ or II? Very cool game in a similar vein. There are other chess modifying card...
Zarba handed me some bits of artwork for the Arcade Game deck, ages ago - I finally got around to sawing them apart and rearranging them onto cards, this...
... Mm, I was reminded of Knightmare Chess when Sandy mentioned the Chess Plus deck, but he'd never heard of it. I've seen KC around, but only in mention and ...
KC plays various ways depending on how you want to play. You can play two decks, one for each player, constructed using the point values, or just "I pick, you...
... Praise: This deck has amazing style. I can already imagine the artwork... Bugs: It's Alive! "Choose a creature. It either eats an item it shares a plate...

I know this deck is unbalanced and probably doesn't play well. I haven't even made a deck out of this. This is nothing more than an idea to put up for grabs...
This one's been sitting around on the Dvorak Engine for months - Tyrethali and I picked it out and played it a bit, earlier, balancing the cards and tidying...
Not sure why I never archived this one properly - it was kicked around on the mailing list a couple of years ago, people contributing and improving a few...
Hey everybody! Just found out about Dvorak and it sounds like a REAL cool game! I’ve previously read about Nomic but all the rules and subrules about this...

... This is why Dvorak decks are usually constructed by two or more people proposing cards to eachother; cards can only be added to the deck when the other...
Yep. I'm new. Stumbled onto the page looking for Bartok pages. I've tried going to the MUSH but didn't see any players around, what time do any of you tend to...
(I just posted approximately the same thing to the comments on the Dvorak site, but immediately realized I'd be better off putting it here) I made a set of the...

In a message dated 9/27/02 5:08:28 PM Eastern Daylight Time, ... Well, I did have a few ideas (moving around through locations, finding victims to feed on in...
... I agree that locations would be too complex. But I fear that the game would be simply luck -- that you could draw a pair of stakes (or whatever) the first...

Just a couple of generic decks - after playing a lot of Mao a few weekends back, I realised that the game's more or less playable online via the Dvorak Engine....
Hot DAMN... now I have to dig up my old Mao rulesheet from back in school... I had so forgotten how massively kewl that game is.. I never realized rules were...
... Ever notice how sometimes a fairly simple rule can be so difficult to figure out? Sure, you can stump people with something really mean like "there must be...
... Do you mean: "LG xor BpY" or "LG or BpY" The first would be too hard for the people I play with, the second would probably be possible, but would take a...

Well, I checked all the Mao / Mau pages, and none of them describe exactly the game I learned back in the day.. apparently there are many many variations. ...
Yes, I find the simplest Zendo rules to be the hardest to get often, because the more complex ones have such a limited potential to occur by accident, and when...
Wow... I knew the Dvorak and Icehouse lists crossed over, I didn't realize how much! I haven't been keeping up with either as much as I'd like to... I had ...

hmm... interesting idea, this "Zendonum".... I doubt I'd be any good at it, but since the Zendobun game I was playing apparently vanished into thin air, I'm up...
