Frequently Asked Questions

How do I upload a deck I've made, or start making a new one?

First you need to create an account to be able to edit the wiki. When you've done that, the deck creation guide will walk you through the steps of adding a deck to the archive.

Do I need permission to edit someone else's deck?

This is up to the person who made the deck.

Existing decks have a box in the top right hand corner, including details of the deck. If the deck is under construction, then the designer is happy for other users to add new cards. Check the talk page to see whether they have any specific requests or guidelines. If the deck is locked, however, then you shouldn't edit it or add cards to it - you should instead go to the article's 'talk' page and make your suggestions there.

How do I set up an account?

At the top of every page, you should see a link that says 'log in/create account'. Click that link and fill in the details. You don't need to provide an email address.

Is there a glossary?

Yes. There's a link to it on the front page.

Colours

Is there any consistent convention on the use of colours?

Why don't the colours print out except as outline?

Why "Dvorak"?

It was a bad joke referencing the Bartok card game. The tentative theory that all Nomic card games have to be named after a six-letter European composer whose name ends with "k".
