I don't think this is getting more chaotic. It's just getting more complicated. This is normal, but, please don't give up, as this will work out eventually. I have updated the list.
THE DISCOURSE DECK
DIRECT PARTICIPANTS IN PROJECT:
ARTISTIC LEADERSHIP POSITIONS - the people who will supervise and revise and criticize the artistic parts of the project:
Digital Design Leader: Derek911
Manual Design Leader: Kensei777
Artistic Counselors: Lara Krystle Lane and Moon.exe

COORDINATION HELPERS - the people in this category will supervise, lead and participate in the project, will help put things together and in order, make sure everything works as planned:
Project Coordination: NathanCanadas

OTHER ARTISTS:
Designers: Zaganh, Brown_baggs, Aaron, austin, John, chdmagicdude, loldudex2

INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS IN PROJECT:
Professional/experienced Advice Givers: Alex, SeanWhelan, xmetal
Assistant Advice Givers: Good@Sabacc, MagicAddictz, dee1orean, Ncyclopedia, SacProductions101

I hope this works out well. I am not a good artist, which is why I can't be the design leader, but I can help coordinate the project, and put everything together. The artistic Counselors can give "professional" feedback. All of the people above as well as other project members will participate in drawing and editing and will be in the credits.

I understand what you mean and don't want to put myself above all. I just think I can help coordinate and put everything together and would be more than willing to do so.

What makes a "direct participant" in the project if the artists aren't included in this category? $:-\$

I meant direct participants other than the ones above. But I had so much to think of that I forgot about this. Sorry. Plz tell me if you think I need to change anything, even if it regards me as an individual. I am doing my best to please a majority of people while making the project move forward.

moonexe · « **Reply #202 on:** February 02, 2012, 05:10:02 PM »

Oh, now I see what you mean.

You might wanna edit your post to have the titles in bold and/or bigger than the rest, to make it easier for people to read through it...

I'd love to help. Don't exactly know how though!

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #204 on:** February 02, 2012, 05:32:56 PM »

YAY!!!!! Thank you so much! You can help by designing and criticizing if you would like!

Evan · « **Reply #205 on:** February 02, 2012, 05:56:59 PM »

I'll be giving ideas and constructive criticism

loldudex2 · « **Reply #206 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:09:27 PM »

Since the Ace of Spades doesn't have a maker yet, could we do the thing with the signatures to match the back of the cards, if we are doing that back?

Also, for the king of hearts, instead of a sword going through his head (suicidal king), I was thinking it'd be cool if it was a man with a gun pointed to his head, but then I realized that was way to dark for this deck. Should I just scrap te idea, or what?

Lara Krystle "Lane" · « **Reply #207 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:23:50 PM »

Good momrning. I just woke up hahaha! I was able to a a really rough sketch of the 2s but couldn't seem to get it right. but my inspiration came from this. I had drawn these a while back and I thought it would be nice to use this as my base for the twos.

Instead of flowers, it would be the suits. I know its kinda vague right now but in my mind its very prettttyyyyyyy picture.

moonexe · « **Reply #208 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:26:09 PM »

I think the Actuators already have the gun idea for the king of hearts. It looks like a flintlock, though.

And it'd be awesome to have the ace of spades and the back both showing off our signatures. I mean, sure, crazy is cool, but why can't we leave that to the faces? A simple back with crazy faces just makes us see the faces even more.

Good morning Krystle.

Those are pretty, I'd love to see what it looks like with suits. And if you need help digitizing them, I could do it as a digital painting to stay closer to your pastel stuff.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #209 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:50:09 PM »

Alright, I will try to make insanely different kings! My inspiration is the "Tungstene" deck

moonexe · « **Reply #210 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:51:44 PM »

Guys, should I make two identical or completely different jokers? Or similar with a reveal?

Lara Krystle "Lane" · « **Reply #211 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:54:58 PM »

Make something like an alter ego joker with reveal.

chdmagicdude · « **Reply #212 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:55:08 PM »

similar with a reveal!

Evan · « **Reply #213 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:58:07 PM »

Honestly, what is the need for a reveal on this deck... its not a deck made for magic.
(just constructive criticism)

loldudex2 · « **Reply #214 on:** February 02, 2012, 06:59:33 PM »

I think you should make two completely different jokers. The point of this deck is to be crazy, so I think it'd be awesome if every cars was completely different.

moonexe · « **Reply #215 on:** February 02, 2012, 07:02:35 PM »

The joker I'm designing right now will be a teddy bear standing on a rocking horse. Maybe the other one could be something else with the same teddy bear? Any ideas?
As for the reveal, even though it's not really a magic deck, something like a reveal would be a nice nod the the magicians in our community.

chdmagicdude · « **Reply #216 on:** February 02, 2012, 07:06:13 PM »

that sounds cool!! i like the idea of a teddy bear
standing on a rocking horse i cant wait to see it. and the reveal should be the teddy bear should be holding the ace of spades.

Come on man. Do you not realize that you are posting the SAME short comments over and over again? And if they're not the same, they contribute nothing to the thread.

RandyButterfield · « **Reply #218 on:** February 02, 2012, 07:11:46 PM »

It's cool watching the progress of this.

I can do some designs for the Sixes if that's alright.
Are the PIPS and Indices going to be from Tendril Deck
or are they going to be custom to the Discourse Deck?

thanks, Randy

moonexe · « **Reply #219 on:** February 02, 2012, 07:13:40 PM »

Randy, it would be great to have you in on the project! Go ahead!

I think the tendril pips are just for reference. The indices should be the same throughout the deck, but the pips on the face design will be different, like most collab decks out there.

I know what you're saying, and I do think he should put more time in his posts, but I honestly feel he was not doing that to increase post count, but instead to voice his opinions on the joker idea.

Maybe you could make the other Teddy Bear sitting down with blocks around him along with other toddler toys, ans one of the sides of the blocks could look like a card for the reveal.

With you on this team, the sixes will be awesome! Seeing what you have done with the Ornate playing cards, there is no doubt in my mind that I will be very pleased.

Yes! Letter blocks!

I'll take a picture of the rocking horse one and try to remake it with the pen tool, then I'll sketch the second joker.

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #222 on:** February 02, 2012, 07:19:59 PM »

Ok I think the jokers should be identical with an almost invisible reveal. As for the Ace of Spades, we should all have our names written, but it could be done on the computer. Just write your real name below, and I'll take care of it, using a nice handwritting. The backs can include signatures, but it must go both ways, with a subtle 1 way design (maybe an extra name, such as Alex's on one side). For the kings, make them your own, try something new!
