Topic: Prog Trading Cards Posted: November 08 2008 at 19:05 |
Here you get to earn and exchange prog trading cards. No, wait! Don't run away! Hear me out!
I have Photoshopped some trading cards of progressive rock albums.
You get five free cards just for posting here asking for your starter deck.
Not satisfied with your cards? Want more? Easy- here's how you get them:
Write reviews for Prog Archives. Post here with the link to your review, and you get a card.
If you give a track-by-track description, you get a bonus card.
If your review is the first one for a given album, you get a bonus card.
That's potentially three cards per review.
Negotiate and announce your trades with other members in this thread.
Some cards are rarer than others. But you knew that. In other words, there's a few more "Jeremy Benders" than there are "Tarkus Medleys." Perhaps you'd like to collect sets of entire albums, or just build your ultimate set list. Or just waste your time. Either way, it's "just for fun," and I hope this gives people a tad more incentives to review, review, review!

Oh yes. But I'm limiting this to albums I have. And I have many Rush albums.
Doesn't mean you'll get any immediately. I distribute the cards using a number system.

Not a bad haul, Bern. You actually got two songs from the same album in a row.

Not bad.
I'm not a big Going for the One or Kansas fan but Can-Utility and the Coastliners is certainly an awesome song to me. So is Seven Stones.

Remember, you can trade with others (once there are others), or write reviews for more.

No, sorry. If they were, I'd be out of business.

I just think this is a fun way to motivate people to write reviews, especially more detailed ones, as well as ones with no reviews as of now.

I'll take a starter deck, then. I need to start reviewing again anyway.

No Rush, By-Tor, but some good ones, I'd say. "Heart of the Sunrise?" eh, eh?
