THATS SERIOUSLY SO MUCH REP! WHY T_T

at least they were added :/

**Lovelace** 2011-10-05, 23:32

Cool, I have access to one. Fear my almighty high rep!

**ancientman7** 2011-10-06, 00:02

N you lucky bastard. I only have 1320 reps.

**Lovelace** 2011-10-06, 00:31

Shouldn't BLS require the most rep of all?

**Key** 2011-10-06, 00:34

BLS didn't get the most votes, Dark Armed Dragon did.

**Red_Chaos** 2011-10-06, 00:40

why is rep so high y can't there be like a 50 one like there is one for avatar?

**{EX} TheVoid** 2011-10-06, 00:44

KEY!!!!!!!!!!!!! YUDOTHIS?? Dark Armed Dragon for 5k rep? When the hell do I get the chance to get my rep up when Im always modding? T_T

**Key** 2011-10-06, 00:44

Because
-ASS button is gone
-You will get rep no matter what unless your opponent quit
-Makes more people want to not quit
-There always needs to be a big one (Such as the BLS avy)

**{EX} TheVoid** 2011-10-06, 00:45

But Im always modding... I can barely play T_T

Not my decision, your arguments are invalid

**Axrest** 2011-10-06, 03:41

Well, it took a while, but I'm glad they finally got added.

And yet, one of my favorites missed the cut. Feels bad. Maybe in the future.

**The DetonatorCOPY** 2011-10-06, 04:35

More may be added in the future, keep your eyes on announcements.

**Zero2Hero** 2011-10-06, 06:17

Time to get my Game On!

**Phoenix Wright** 2011-10-06, 06:37

Literally got 1000 rep last night

**Goddess nX** 2011-10-06, 06:58

And some of em weren't added because they were too inappropriate T_T

**Broken_Soul** 2011-10-06, 07:28

it was a close one congrats to the winners

Why won't we get rep when the opponent quits? It's like a nerfed a.s.s. for haters. We should get the rep, and they should not ( or they should even lose some, but there's some argument about that)

**Keynomaru** 2011-10-06, 10:24

Needs too much rep.

**Axrest** 2011-10-06, 11:01

Really? I didn't feel any of them really pushed the boundaries of YGO cards already in print. If you can use the Japanese art of cards in DN, nothing the sleeves had really seems too over the line.

**GRIMLOCK** 2011-10-06, 11:22

Wow that's a lot of REP'S needed affraid

Looks like only a few can get them for now, i doubt someone can get the Dark Armed Dragon at this Day and time lol!

**Goddess nX** 2011-10-06, 11:23

The Dandylion or DMGOC were inappropriate. One of them should have taken second place I believe

I stand Corrected, It seems there's one person with 5000 rep, amazing cheers

**dredragon** 2011-10-06, 16:33

DMGOC whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Q~Q

How? Clevage is now a line that can't be crossed? That's some crazy nonsense when you look at cards literally in the database on DN. I know I shouldn't complain about a feature being added, but that was an incredibly poor call by whoever made it. There really isn't a good excuse.

**eVulmaNn** 2011-10-07, 01:18

Mkay, this is hella unfair, there's lots of people like me who love using dueling network as a testing ground to practice and develop decks using the unrated area, but you don't get any rep there, and i still want the backings, but i don't like playing rated cuz its too competitive and i like trying out and testing new decks. I mean, you already limited use of profiles but seriously, how are regular people(people who only spend like 30 min every day or so on Dueling Network) or people who love testing decks in unrated supposed to get any cool features on DN? Mad

(anyone out there agree?)

**CCStormgust** 2011-10-07, 15:00

That impossible amount of rep

**Gorz** 2011-10-07, 15:08

I love how the only person that is even remotely able to use the Dark Armed Sleeves is Klaord. The closest can't even get 5k rep in a week...

**Zaiako** 2011-10-07, 15:47

thats rediculous.
usually im not one to complain but ouch.
I knew we would need rep to get the different cardbacks but doesnt that seem a bit excessive?
It took me several days of pain to get 100+rep just for the regular cardback.
I know with the removal of A.S.S it is easier to go up, but thats lord knows how many duels you gotta win there... jeeze.

**Lovelace** 2011-10-07, 15:56

What happened to this place? Huh?! A bunch of guys whining because it takes effort to get the new card backs?! They are to be treated like trophies, you don't get a trophy handed to you on a silver platter! Now, you can either stop your whining, and go earn your card backs like men, or die trying!

**BeanMachine87** 2011-10-07, 16:00

Not only does Lord know how many duels you must win, I do as well...5000. And that's if your opponent admits defeat when they lose.

Alternatively, you could just lose 2500 times.

Kinda wish the tally of the votes were released...I wanna see what place my design wound up in.

Problem is, a lot of us have lives outside of DN.
We cant spend several hours a day dueling duel after duel.
Im lucky to get in 2 or 3 a day.
So getting 5k rep is near impossible for a few years at this rate.

Then don't try and win the trophy! You don't need a DAD sleeve just to duel!

**Goddess nX** 2011-10-07, 16:54

5k rep is possible within two months. Even if you spend an hour a day dueling.

**Lovelace** 2011-10-07, 16:56

Like I said, you don't get trophies handed to you on a silver platter.

**Chihaya Kisaragi** 2011-10-07, 17:00

Well, guess I should start playing more often, I'm not even at 100 Reps yet, lol, People keep rage quitting in Rated when I Fusion spam with Gem-Knights. Well, to be honest, just having any different card sleeve will be nice for me, since I'm still stuck with the bland looking one.
Wonder what new sleeves will be added in the future.

Though, I'm not gonna bother to spend that much time to get a Dark Armed Sleeve. No matter how cool it looks, I don't feel like spending so much time trying to get it.

**Zaiako** 2011-10-07, 17:46

No we dont have to.
But it would be nice if it were 'Attainable' for those of us who get in a couple duels a day.

**screp** 2011-10-07, 22:05

Detonator want to join the group Administrators Dueling ...

No it wouldn't. If you can't put in the effort to get the trophy, don't whine to us about it.

**Axrest** 2011-10-08, 03:13

The Rep amounts honestly don't bother me. It's something to work for over time. Sure, it'll take a long time, but that is kind of the point. It makes having them mean something. If it was easy or took little effort, getting said card backs would mean nothing.

I still am bothered that they cut a -superior- card back design, as voted on by users, but whatever.

You make it sound like were lazy.
I work and have a daughter to take care of.
So honestly this past month ive dueled like, 11 times?
Its not a choice thing, its something that cant be helped.
Dont get me wrong, im not saying it should be in things like '150 rep) and such like avatars. Cause then everyone will be using it and thats boring.
But when its several thousand, its rather excessive for those of us without the time.

**3E-hero neos** 2011-10-08, 11:21

You all could have gotten 5K rep now if you didn't whine this much LOL.

You're still acting like the goal of the game is to win one of the new sleeves, sir. If you can't win the trophy, I don't see why you need to whine to us about it.

No the purpose of card backs is to add personalization to a profile. They are not meant to be won they actually should not have unlocking requirements at all.

My god your first post and its something ive been waiting for someone to say so i didnt have to. Very Very true.
If everythings unlockable, people who may not get on as much like us or people who dont like being in rated, it all begins to look the same. It gets very redundant seeing everyone have the same thing.

on most forums post count is pretty irrelevant imo
