Hi there, I'm Julie, hailing from Michigan. I'm a programmer who works on libre computer games. I've also been really interested in trading card games for years; Yu-Gi-Oh was what I originally played, but I think Duel Masters is better and was disappointed when it failed in the United States... twice.
I came across Arcmage just last week when DireMungBean posted about his digital version of Arcmage (Arcmage: Seeds of Magic) on the FreeGameDev.net forum, and was instantly hooked when I looked at the rules. I also love that this is being designed to be a balanced game, which I think is a severe problem in commercial trading card games. Players shouldn't be forced by circumstance to use the same set of cards as everyone else. I think deck building should be a creative, personalized, fun experience.
So yeah, here I am. I'm interested in playing Arcmage, and I'm also interested in helping develop it if I can.
