Cards Symposium? What's that?

Greetings, everyone! Remember the last Symposium we had? We're returning it this year!

To celebrate the continued triumph of trading cards as a prominent feature, The North Pacific hereby invites YOU, fellow NationStates user, to attend our 2022 Cards Symposium!

Starting first-thing on February 20 2022, players finding themselves participating in this year's event will get to experience a wide range of activities, whether it be: 1) competing in games to win awards, 2) listening to experienced card users giving lectures, and more!

To participate, please click on the LinkDiscord invite in order to join!

What exactly will take place at the Symposium?

With all honesty, there's so many things that it'll prove difficult to name! There will be events such as card collecting competitions, card lotteries, long-time users speaking about their experiences in cards, and even gaming rooms such as a Hunger Games match, so be assured that there will be more than enough events in order to make your participation worthwhile~

What's in it for me if I attend?

Not only will you get the chance to gain first-hand knowledge regarding the cards game, but you'll also receive multiple chances to win extremely valuable cards each day, including the highly coveted Testlandia!

Each day, there will be 1 lottery that will take place, and a random user attending the event will be the recipient of a randomized legendary card. In addition, multiple events + competitions will be hosted that will reward the winner with cards of the same rarity as mentioned, so not only will participation in those events be fun, but they'll also be highly rewarding!

We hope to see you there, so thanks a ton for reading 🃏
