CSR CCG - put in your suggestions here!

[scruff]

The "Conflicting Policies" card countered with "Co-worker brought doughnuts" card? :-)

[EricKei]

EE: Thanks! ^_^

"%!@#&^%!!!!" (allows SC player to search deck for a Spineless Manager card or equivalent)

"Customer Standard Time" (SC gets an extra turn)

"Complaint to the BBB" (no effect whatsoever)

"Tech support" (fixes any one Problem in play)

Oh yes, and how could I forget:

"Brain Bleach" (Worker discards entire hand and ALL cards in play in his section of the playfield, including any hindrances played by customers. Draw a new hand; play any two cards from it immediately at no cost)

[MoonCat]

Don't forget the "PWNED!" card! That one wipes out all the others!

And we need one for "I spend thousands here!"

[EvilEmpryss]

Great job, EE!

And, a couple more suggestions:

The snapping fingers to get employee's attention card.

The whistling (as if calling a dog) to get employee's attention card.


ETA: Just thought of a couple more:

SC Card: The Entitlement Whore Card. (Surprised we didn't come up with that yet! One of our most common SC's.)

CSR Counter Card: the Idiot Tax Card.



I think this is the funnest thread-jacking ever!

I'm working on ideas for how to play. Here's what I figure. Each turn is divided into to Phases.

The SC phase, and the Employee phase

Each player gets two thirty-card decks, one for the Employee phase and one for the SC phase. There is also one ten card "Purchase Deck"

During your SC phase, you try to play cards to get away with an item (drawn from the Purchase Deck). You do this by scoring however many 'points' the item is worth. If you fail to score the number of points, the Employee gets the item. If you score the points, you get the item.

Each Item will have a SC Hand Size, an Employee Hand Size, and a Cost (how many points must be scored)

The SC plays first each 'hand'. They may play as many cards as they like, but may never play less than one. Then the employee plays cards. They may choose to play no cards if they wish. This continues until

A) The SC has scored the 'Cost' in points, in which case the SC gets the item
B) The SC has no cards in their hand, in which case the Employee scores the item.
C) The Employee has no cards in their hand, in which case the SC gets the item.
D) A card is played which ends the round, in which case the instructions on the card are followed

The game is over when all ten items have been taken.

The winner is the one with the most points when the game ends.

In case of a tie, each player shuffles their Purchases, and draws one at random. The highest Cost wins.

That's the "Here, Boy" card, right?

^-.-^

[EvilEmpryss]

Oh my. I seem to have started something. I need to make more Purchase Cards, then, and rename the Pink Camo Pants card to Pink Camo Pants Purchase Card.

I love the rules, Hyena Daddy!

How would you account for something like the "Sold-By-Weight Items Eaten Before Checkout"? Would that deduct point from the Employee if he can't counter it with an "Awesome Manager" card?

{NTS: gotta make an Awesome Manager Card}

[Hyena Dandy]

A few purchase ideas


Pink Camo:

SC Hand Size 5
Employee Hand Size: 5
Cost: 20

Special Abilities: None

Lottery Ticket:
SC Hand Size: 8
Employee Hand Size: 3
Cost: Special

Special Abilities: The Lottery Ticket is Cost 5 after purchase and Cost 10 while in play. If you have the Lottery Ticket in your Possession, after each round you may "Play" the ticket. Pick a number between 1 and 6, and roll a die. If your pick is correct, discard The Lottery Ticket and draw a card from the Purchase Deck. If your pick is incorrect, discard the Lottery Ticket. If there are no more cards in the Purchase Deck, discard The Lottery Ticket






SC Card: Nunavut.

Pick a card from the Employee's hand. If the card has the word Credit, Debit, Name, Address, Number, Phone, Question, or Gravekeeper on it, end the Transaction. The Employee takes the purchase. Otherwise, discard the card, and score five points.

Employee Card: Hot Tips

Name a card. The SC shows you their hand. If the card you named is in their hand, draw two cards. If not, discard a card.



SC Card: I Want To See Your Manager

Search your deck for the card Spineless Manager. If you find it, place it into your hand.



SC Card: Spineless Manager

Score Twenty Points



Employee Card: Awesome Manager

Discard one card from the SC's hand. This card stays in play. While this card is in play, your opponent cannot play Spineless Manager. If this card is played in response to I Want To See Your Manager, or Scream And Shout, end the transaction. The Employee takes the item.

SC Card:

Race Card: Score five points if your opponent is a different ethnicity from you.


SC Card:

Disability Card: Score five points if your opponent is not sitting in a chair


Employee Card:

Brain Bleach: SC Loses all points. Both players discard their hands, and shuffle their hands back into their decks, then redraw their starting hand size for the round.



SC Card

You'll Never See Me Again: Choose any number of cards in your hand, and place them aside, and remove the current item from play. End the round. On your next SC Round, pick up the cards you placed aside before drawing the rest of your hand


Eaten Before Check-Out: Discard any number of cards. Score five points for each card you discard if you are trying to purchase food.



SC Card: Cat Butt Face:

Discard a card from your hand, and draw a card. This card cannot be countered.



SC Card: Calling Corporate.

If Awesome Manager is in play, place it in the opponent's deck. The opponent shuffles their deck and draws a card.


SC Card:

Special Snowflake: This must be the first card you play on your turn. Double the points scored from any card you play. You may not draw cards this turn.

Easy counter for any 'Eaten before checkout" or similar would be a "Loss Prevention Caught you on Camera' card.

[BeeMused]

I think we need the "Get a real Job" card too.

[EvilEmpryss]

Okay, the latest set.

Note, the Corporate Denial Card can be played by either the SC or the Employee. Whoever has it in their hand gets to apply it against their opponent. Sometimes Corporate comes down on the Employee's side, after all.

Corporate Denial Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...porateCard.jpg
The TMI Card (confuses/disgusts the Employee, causing a lost turn): http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...ss/TMICard.jpg
Summon Worker Like a Dog Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...moningCard.jpg
The Loss Prevention Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...moningCard.jpg

The Idiot Tax Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...iotTaxCard.jpg
The Hot Tips Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...otTipsCard.jpg
The EW Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...yss/EWCard.jpg
The Eating Before Checkout Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...EatingCard.jpg

The Co-Irker Showdown Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...-IrkerCard.jpg
The Awesome Manager Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...wesomeCard.jpg

My favorites (so far) are the Batshit Crazy and the Awesome Manager cards. You'll see why.

Almost forgot the I Pay Your Paycheck Card: http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/w...ycheckCard.jpg

[Andara Bledin]

Sweet. Love them all, so far.

[EricKei]

This is going great ^_^ You should start planning for the first expansion now:

"The Word of The Gord"

(edit - thanks for setting up the new thread, Raps! ^_^)

anyhoo...

One great resource for both artwork and cards would be Jennie Breeden's comic that she does for this site -- most of the circumstances in the ones she's done would make good cards in and of themselves, and you could use artwork from the corresponding comic (with her permission) to make the cards themselves!

EE = employee/worker

SC card: I didn't like the food but I ate it all anyway (5 points to SC unless EE can counter it or lose one food Item card) -- an example from the most recent comic

EE card: Doomsday Free Card of Death (causes SC to lose 5 points) (This exists; I've posted about it before...ya see, it's a card offering a free pizza at DaddyJim's, but includes the words "Not good at any DaddyJim's location"...)

SC card: Payment in coin (EE loses a turn while waiting)

Item cards: Pink camo shirt/vest/shotgun/jacket/hat

EE card: Ordering from the wrong catalog (SC loses 10 points)

EE card: ID-ten-T Error (SC loses 5 points)

EE card: PEBKAC Error ("Problem Exists Between Keyboard and Chair") (SC must give one Item Card with "computer" or "technology" in the name to EE; if they don't have any, EE may take one from the Item deck)

SC card: Wrong Number (EE does not draw a card on his next Draw phase, due to aggravation/distraction)

SC card: Tiny yapping pursedog (EE loses a turn trying to prevent entry unless EE has a "medicine" or "headache remedy" card)

Item cards: headache remedy/wood chipper/soapbox/medicine/controlled medication

EE Card: Keys To The Back Room (discard any two cards and then take a random item from the Item pile for free; limit of one per deck)

EE Card: No shirt, no shoes, no service (SC skips a turn unless they have a card with "Wal-Mart" in the name either in their hand or in play)

[IvorTangrean]

Lets not forget the I don't speak your language card. Combo's with the race card for extra suffering.
