What is a TCG?
A TCG is a Trading Card Game and in this case it is played online. When you join you recieve a starter-pack with a number of cards and then you are ready to start playing.
What do I need to play?
You have to have a tradepost where you can show your cards. It is also important that you keep a tradelog. In the log you have to add what cards you got, how you got them and when you got them. If you have no idea what a site like this should look at you can check out one of my tradeposts: My A-List Tradepost.
How do I get started?
When you join you get a starter-pack with 3 regular cards from your collecting set and 4 random regular cards. When (if?!) you reply to your starter-email you will recieve 3 more random regular cards (unless you are a pre-joiner, in that case you'll get 7 more random regular cards).
How do I get more cards/the cards I'm looking for?
There are a number of ways to get/earn new cards. Playing games, leveling up, mastering sets, donating images/badges etc.
To get hold of the specific cards you are looking for the best way is to trade with other members (after all, this is a trading card game!). Check out the other members tradeposts and see if you find what you are looking for. Just remember to be polite when trading!
