How it Works

Just about everyone is aware of the spawning fad of the Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and other assorted Trading Card Games (TCG). You buy packs of cards from stores, and then trade and "battle" with other collectors. Well, SCMR is just like that, only it's an online version for the manga/anime hit, Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon! In a way it's a game, for the object is to not only have fun, but also see how well your collection can grow!

When you first join, I will give you 15 cards that look similar to this...


You can place your collection anywhere on your site. You are required to place a badge of your ranking somewhere with them, and link it back to SCMR. The rankings (levels) are further below.

Regular cards are labeled by the deck color and then sub-labeled by the set number (top right) and its number. The card above would be named pink101!

Cards are organized a bit differently here. Things are organized by decks and sets. Each deck contains 10 sets, and each set contains 20 cards, for a total of 200 cards in a deck! When you a see a color title like Blue, or Red, then that is referring to the title of the deck. Sets are labeled by their number (ex. Pink Set 1). Each deck is themed by either character (ex. Usagi/Sailor Moon), group (ex. Family/Friends), or a running theme (ex. items/toys).


Special & Month Cards

Special cards are given out on special occasions, or available for purchase at the Department Store. "Normal" Special cards are worth 2; Temporary Special cards are worth 3 AND are only distributed for limited periods. (See the Special card pages for those times!) However, you can trade your Temporary Specials at any time

Month cards are a unique feature. There are five sets in each of these decks, with the exception of Moon,who has 12 sets. The month associated with the decks means that these cards are only released in that month throughout the whole year. You may not acquire these cards by ANY means -- except for trading with other members -- during any other time, and that includes buying them. Moon's cards follow a similar theme; each of her 12 sets are matched up to their own month. EX: In January, all of Saturn's Attack/Henshin and Moon Prism Power cards are distributed through games, contests, joining, birthdays, the Department Store, etc. This means Month sets are a little more difficult to collect!

If you master a Special or Month set, you will receive a reward. You can trade Special or Month cards for normal cards, not just for other Specials or Month cards!


Trading

In order to receive more cards after this, you must trade with another member of the group. The following are the rules of trading.

1) Only trade with another member of SCMR. If they are not on the members list, then do NOT trade with them!

2) Remember, trading online is just like trading in real life. If someone offers you one of their cards for one of yours, and you accept, then you must take down your card! Once you trade a card away, it's gone. (See below.)

3) Once you have completed a trade, you should record it somehow. A trade log is required. The best place to post a trade log is your website. We also have a section for trade logs on the forums if for some reason you can't post it on your site.

Member Cards

Member cards are an optional feature used to represent each member! They are worth 1 but are not masterable. They can be traded (by themselves or with other cards) and help to drastically increase your card count. But unlike regular trading, you don't have to take yours down! Your collection just grows~!

To get your card, please visit the member cards page and fill out the form located at the bottom of the page!


Coupons

Coupons represent their depicted deck, and you can earn from playing games, contests, masteries, and so on. You may turn in a coupon for either 1 choice card from the deck or 2 random cards from that deck. (Please note that coupons are not tradeable!)



To exchange your coupons, visit the Crystal Tokyo Department Store!


Crystals

Crystals are the currency used at the Crystal Tokyo Department Store, and are also earned via games and contests. The worth increments are 1, 5, 10, 20, and 50, in the respective order shown below.
