Hello, and welcome to Pick a Card. I'm your host, Celestia Ludenberg...

... Hm? "That's not the title of the game! And what happened to Lita?" Oh, please, let's not get hung up on such details, shall we? I think you'll find my game to be more suited to your tastes.

look over here, won't you? )

Whew! I've been looking everywhere for you! Miss Kamila is in trouble, and I need your assistance again!! I need to swap a card I found with something else in order to protect her, but they have to be the same color. The bad thing is... I can't see color because I'm a Pomeranian!

I found this card lying by a tree with strange fruit on it! The fruit looked good, but Miss Kamila told me not to eat strange fruit because it could be bad--like chocolate!!



If you could tell me what color this card is, I could save Miss Kamila!! Don't worry, I will sniff out two cards for you for all the trouble!! I can also bring you back some of the strange fruit if you want to eat it!

This game will end a week from today, April 19th!

HEY READ THIS FIRST: Starting this round, Acrostic Trading Post will be posted as a monthly game! I have more on my plate than I did before, and sadly no other mod has time to take this game on - but because I don't want to see it fall by the wayside completely, I will be continuing to post the monthly challenges even if I don't have time to keep running it weekly. Hopefully someday it will be able to make a comeback to its full weekly glory, but for now, you'll be seeing it appear on the 1st of the month, rather than on the Saturday schedule!

Prizes for the monthly version will be following a schedule of "when I have time," which will probably be periodically throughout the month whenever I have a chunk of time to check them. The last couple of rounds have not been forgotten, fear not. :(




the poet's acrostic trading post
The poet needs to buy words from you so that he can finish his poems! He'll give you a card for every letter you sell to him and a bonus card for every whole word you can provide.

Basically, you need to trade to spell your words! The first letter of either the CARD or the PLAYER you trade with are the letters you use to spell your words. You will have a month to do so.

For example if you are trying to spell DESK. To get a 'D' I can trade with Delitan or I can trade the card defeated07. For trading cards you can either be the person trading the card AWAY or the person RECEIVING the card.

For player trades though you MUST trade with someone else. So I can't use 'Sammich' for the letter 'S'.

You cannot reuse the same player/card in one month. To spell "EYE" you need TWO different players or cards that start with 'E'.
MONTHLY PHRASE: (SUBMIT) ✎
...AND GOES OUT LIKE A LAMB

Trades must be even numbered cards - so the card that matches the letter should have an even number! (If you're using a player name, either card may be even. Signatures have no number, and so do not count.) For the punctuation, you will need one trade with a card numbered 03.

Getting the full phrase without the ellipses will earn you 25 random cards; including the punctuation will earn you a bonus crayon!




Please provide links of your trade. If you use a website logging system please link your log. However it is preferred that you have a link somewhere as opposed to email/website logs just because it makes it easier to check. Thank you!
only trades dated between 3/30-4/30 will count
* the date completed. So if you start a trade on the 19th and it ends on the 24th it's fine to use. However if you start a trade on the 21st and it ends on the 30th it would not count. This is mostly to prevent trades from hanging over too far into the next week, I know it might be a little rushed that way but remember even if you can't get the whole word you can still get partial credit for most of the word!
