Title: Trading Cards
Post by: Aureus Lunae on October 19, 2016, 05:25:10 PM

Name of Plugin: Trading Cards
Plugin version: 4.20-EM
Minecraft version compatibility: 1.8, 1.9 & 1.10
Link (Click here) (https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/xp-trading-cards.9378/)
Brief description on what it does and adds:

This plugin adds collectible trading cards, which can drop from monsters, gained from booster packs, and other ways. While this plugin is originally intended for players who likes to collect things, it can be used for many other things. 

The cards are simply pieces of paper with lore and custom names, which represent the trading cards. They can be gained with booster packs, which are by default books with a custom name and lore, preventing players from making books to gain the cards.

Now, the other things this can be used for are to make card games. It is possible to made a default set of playing cards for for example, poker and blackjack. Or for trading cards games like Triple Triad (a game from FF8). This allows for many options if different sets are being made. It also allows for some unique events with greater ease, and a reward for collectors or tournaments.

By playing with rarities, it is possible to define a set to what it belong to. You can make a rarity PlayingCards, for simple playing cards, and then a rarity of SentinelCommon, SentinelRare, etc to make an entirely different set. This is very usable for creating booster packs for different sets.

Sets in mind for events/gaming sets:
Playing Cards (PlayingCard)
Triple Triad (TTmonster, TTBoss, TTGuardianForce, TTCharacter) (http://pastebin.com/8RLYq6YH) (Actual game)
Mafia Cards (MafiaCommon, MafiaUnique) (http://pastebin.com/X3JA0vG0) (Rewards)

Possible Collectable sets:
Sentinel Staff
Players (Can be automatically made by the plugin)
Mobs
Towny (Like Towns, Mayors of those, nations from before the wipe)
Landmarks

Note: I am willing to write the cards for the events, and possible other cards. Triple Triad already has cards available, but I doubt you are willing to do research for that part and add it in. Also willing to do the Mafia cards.

More than just gambling. It allows for tournaments in the server itself.

If you want, I can create a few sets. Or at least the ones we hosters want to use for some events or event rewards. In fact, the Triple Triad and Mafia were already finished.

We ask you to vote if you think Trading Cards plugin should be included or not in SentinelCraft. The planned usage is to use it as a bonus plugin: staff will create the decks and the players would be able to complete collections by finding cards through different ways (just like the current head collections).
The community's opinion is extremely valuable so make sure to voice your opinion. The poll for this plugin will close in 3 days.

If you want to explain your voting decision, you can reply below.

It's a big Yes for me! I personally love collecting cards in real life and want to do it too in SC.
