Yu-gi-oh! Duelathon #1
 

Introduction


Welcome to the official Yu-gi-oh! Duelathon thread. Cirrus and I have decided that this forum lacks the tournaments that could be held. Therefore, we decided to make one. Approved by digi and organized by Apple Juice & Cirrus. Enjoy.

Rules


The official Yu-gi-oh! Forbidden/Limited List is here and the Rulebook can be downloaded here. Not following these rules will be resulted as disqualifications to the tournament.

Rules:
  • No Meta Decks, meaning: No Infernity, X-Saber, or Frog decks. No Meta variants either.
  • Advanced only.
  • 1 Deck for the whole tournament
  • OCG Decks are allowed

YVD FAQ


Q: Where do I get YVD?
A. www.xerocreative.com -> Downloads page.

Q: How do I make the blank spaces pictures?
Do the same thing as above, but download the image set. Then, move it to your YVD's Images file.

Q: A new set was released. How do I update my YVD?
A. On the YVD software homepage's top left click "Update Set". If this does not work than you will have to download it manually on xerocrative.

Q: Can I play with OCG cards too?
A. http://www.youtube.com/user/Yugiohdeckmaster41 has created a YVD.set file with all the currently released cards from the TCG & OCG. I suggest downloading his set for YVD if you are interested in OCG. If you need help implementing the set PM him on YouTube.

Q: Can I customize my duel field?
A. Yup. Make an image and when you're done go to the top left of YVD and click "Settings".

Q: How do I make a deck?
A. To make a deck, go to the search bar and search the cards you want in your deck. In the middle blank box the card you searched will show up. Highlight the name of the card, and move your mouse down until you see "Add to Deck". Do so until the left blank box is filled with the cards you want.

Q: How can I duel?
In the bottom right of YVD, click DUEL! to duel.

Q: How do I connect to my opponent?
A. First you have to go to Xerocreative's forum and join. Remember your username and password. Make sure your opponent knows who will be hosting and who will be the client (this is w/ server duel). Once you do so, while you are in the duel page, click the Connect button. Enter your username and password and verify your account. Enter your opponent's username and click Connect once more. If it does not work, you will know if you connect to your self.

Q: Anything else I need to know?
A. Nope.

Can I use other dueling softwares?
A: Yes, as long as the other person can too.

Anyway, I'll be up for practice duels at -5EST. Have fun, everyone :D

Actually, there's still a few hours left.

OH WELL, I GUESS I AM PLAYING NOW. GRUDGINGLY>

GYMNOTIDE. GMT-5> YVD,

Apple Juice August 20th, 2010 5:24 PM

'KAY.

Reminder: Deadline ends in 4 hours. Dueling starts August 21st, 10:00AM UTC -6:00 Central time

Gymnotide August 20th, 2010 5:36 PM

You should have made the deadline August 20, 2010 11:59PM heh >:)

edit

Ugh. Do you think you could help me out a little?

YVD has been giving me a lot of trouble. There's an error with Vista where if you try to edit tokens, it deletes all your existing tokens and makes it so you can't play with tokens at all, since you can't add or restore them in any way. I tried reinstalling the game and repairing the game, but YVD NEVER resets its setting. I can uninstall it and then the icon will STILL open up the settings from the first installation I made. If i run it as Administrator, it fixes it temporarily, but tokens are still messed up and can't be recovered.

edit2 Now I can't even run YVD without it exploding on me.

Really, YVD, really?

Apple Juice August 21st, 2010 7:48 AM

Try Duelist Monsters Genesis. Here is how to work it, and this here will teach you how to get it.

Match ups:
Apple Juice - Cirrus
Diablerie - psychicboy
Vernikova - Gymnotide
Eon-Rider - Zeffy

YOU MUST GO BY THE NEW BANLIST, found in Cirrus' Sep 2010 Banlist thread!
Go!

Cirrus August 21st, 2010 8:39 AM

2-0 vs Apple Juice.

Shooting Sonic!

Oh, and uh... new banlist won't work with YVD unless you have the expertise to do set editing.

Apple Juice August 21st, 2010 1:13 PM

Well then, DMG users must use the new banlist.

And in my defense I drew horribad and he drew ridiculous.

By the way this is a swiss round.

Cirrus August 21st, 2010 7:59 PM

I didn't draw ridiculous, I drew typical. >:

My deck just works well enough. I got a really slow triple Fortress in my hand at one point.

Diablerie August 21st, 2010 8:32 PM

Hey Psychicboy, drop me a VM or PM if you get online in the next few hours.

Zeffy August 21st, 2010 9:01 PM

@Eon-Rider

Just drop off my profile and VM/PM me once you get on.

Diablerie August 22nd, 2010 11:40 PM

Is there a time limit on this round?

Eon-Rider August 22nd, 2010 11:40 PM

There's a dropdown menu on the right for No List. If that isn't an easy solution then I don't know what is.

Sure. I'd appreciate it if we could start after we confirm which list we're using though.

EDIT: I went 2 - 0 against Zeffy.

Gymnotide August 23rd, 2010 7:52 AM

Me and Vernikova are postponing our duel again.
Incidentally, could everyone also post their YVD usernames up please?

Cirrus August 23rd, 2010 12:04 PM

YVD Username: Theophilus

Rather Greek.
