User:Nutster/Trading Card Game Ideas

Ideas for use in the Wikipedia card game.

Vandals:
 * WikiKracken: Downgrade the highest non-FA article for any player and then add one vandalism token to it.  It will perform this action each round.
 * Sockpuppet: This vandal is associated with another vandal and gains all the abilities of the other vandal.  Is useless without another vandal.

Good articles:
 * Issac Newton (use his picture from the article).
 * Googolplex: Image is 1, followed by as many 0's as will fit, followed by ellipsis.  Quote:  Think big; VERY big.

Edit:
 * Spell check: Remove one vandalism OR upgrade one article to no higher than B-level status.

Userboxes:
 * WikiGnome. Removes one vandal token from any article OR upgrade any article.  Can not be used to raise an article at B status or higher.
 * WikiDragon. Remove all vandal tokens from the article of any user with the most vandalism tokens and then upgrade it.  Discard this card at the end of the player's next turn.
 * Barnstar: When played on another player, removes the effect of demotivate.  If the player does not have a demotivate, it will protect the player from one demotivation attack.

Bot:
 * ClueBot: Removes one vandal token from every article in play by every player at the end of that player's turn.  Although ClueBot continues to run, it will only fix (remove a vandalism) each article once.  If no vandal tokens are in play at the end of the owning player's turn, ClueBot downgrades the last article editted.  Don't you just love false positives?

Bad:
 * Demotivate: This affects the editor (player), not Wikipedia directly.  A user who has been demotivated will not upgrade any articles.  Quote:  "Why bother?"  Image is a man sitting at a desk beside a computer with his head in his hands.  Related to WikiDeath?
 * Hi There: Minor vandalism where somebody sticks in the phrase "Hi There" in an inappropriate place in the article.  Add vandalism token to the highest ranked article among all players.
 * Bad Data: Vandalism.  All the data in the table has been scrambled and none of the numbers make any sense.  Image:  Table of values in the background superimposed with a big red question mark in the foreground.  Add one vandalism token to a B or C-level article of the player.
 * Citation Needed: Image: { {cn} }. Play on any of your articles. Prevents the article from being upgraded to A or higher status.  Quote:  Where did that come from?
 * Rumour Mill: Article downgrade.  All the "facts" that were added are all speculation and rumour.
 * Wishful thinking: Article downgrade because somebody thinks they know everything about a topic, when in fact they know very little that is actually correct.
 * Copyright infringement: Image is the Copyright violation system used on Wikipedia.  Remove the article from play and discard.  Quote:  What?  I thought that was in the Public Domain!
 * Speedy Delete: Remove the article with the lowest rating among all players.
 * Speedy Delete: Remove the article with the most vandalism tokens among all players.
