Would You Like A Destructoid Card?
The GHost | 1:48 PM on 05.15.2008 78 comments


Those of you cool enough to visit the forums will have noticed that recently I made a couple of Destructoid cards. Now most of you old-school Dtoiders likely already have a card, but since I had so much fun doing these things -and because I'm unemployed for another month- I've decided to offer my services to any interested community members.

How it works:

1) Either goto this thread and make a request, or drop a comment saying that you want one in this c-blog.

2) Our expert card artisans will rigorously research your past to create a customized card that fits your personality using our patented Search FunctionTM and PhotoshopTM technology to ensure accuracy.

3) Your hand crafted card will then be posted on the Destructoid card thread in the forum and sent to you via PM.

4) !!!!

5) Go bankrupt.

Here are some samples of the kind of high quality work that can only be achieved by using small children working for pennies a day in a dangerous factory in China.







Note: I'm certainly not of the mind that I'm the ONLY one out there capable of doing this. If you post a request, I'll do it unless someone else calls dibs, in which case I'll defer to his/her likely superior shooping skills. Also feel free to say if there's anything you would like to appear on the card, giving source images you want used would also be much appreciated.

Random quote... EXECUTE!

“The conventional wisdom in that industry is that kids would rather play video games than collect baseball cards.”

~Jim Barrett

Electro Lemon's Destructoid Blog
Ahh, memories. I remember the card someone made for me.


It was a black rectangle.
Passionate Styos's Destructoid Blog
I would love to have one, so I shall request one right here because I never go to the forums, haha.

Anyway, can't wait to see to some of the cards about the users!
evil chad's Destructoid Blog
i so terribly want one of these, if we could make real life versions id pay for one and shipping to have it sent to me.
NotAZombie's Destructoid Blog
I'll take one! (P.S. mine is gonna be really easy. Just look at my blog.)
evil chad's Destructoid Blog
ya know, you could seriously make some dough on these things provided the cost of making a card and standard shipping plus labor charges factored in to a nice amount, who is to say you stop at destructoid? This could be a huge side business.
Usedtabe's Destructoid Blog
I would appreciate a card please. That would be awesome
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
Once you make it down to the bottom of your long list, I would also like one, if you're still alive then.

Also, I don't suppose you have a blank card you could post? I understand if you don't want to give away a trick of the trade or anything, but I wouldn't mind puttering around with the template. :)
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
Oops, I just found a blank one in the forum. Sorry. Should've checked first. :)
The GHost's Destructoid Blog
@Sharpless

Oh man, there's no tricks here. If you want I'll give you a template using any color you want :D

The moar the bettar!
vexed alex's Destructoid Blog
Good, lordy lord. I'm at the bottom of this list! I should check the c-blogs more often.

I'll take one. I don't mind the wait.
Sharpless's Destructoid Blog
Oh, well, if you have a blue and/or green. The pink isn't really working for me. :)
Lukich's Destructoid Blog
*takes his number... (215)

So I can expect this sometime in 2011? I'm infinitely curious if I've done anything that would fit into this, lol.
ceark's Destructoid Blog
I want a card.
Anus Mcphanus's Destructoid Blog
Wow looks like I'm super late to this party. Good luck with the shit ton of requests Mr GHost and if you get round to the bottom I would love a card and I'm also a lesser known character for your imagination to run wild with :-)

guess I'll sit tight and masturbate frantically while I'm waiting unless anyone wants some free butt secks?
Tubatic's Destructoid Blog
I too am late to the party!

tehdopefish's Destructoid Blog

OhJAM's Destructoid Blog

Necros's Destructoid Blog
I could certainly use one, since I was always too lazy to make one of my own.

 about me



For the basics, check out my forum intro thread.

Or for the lazy, here's all you really need to know about me summed up in one picture:



Now that that's done with, let's move onto the blog itself. This blog isn't going to contain any news. Like EVER. Like NEVER EVER FOREVER NEVER. I have no intention of doing anything other than posting original content (mostly just pictures that I make with my extremely limited photoshop skills along with original stories and whatnot). The bottom line is that I think that there are plenty of people doing editorial/reviewer style content already, and so instead of adding to the glut, I'll just stick to what I know:

Dicking around :D

Now enjoy... or DON'T!

My one year anniversary: I did a bunch of traveling and met a bunch of Dtoiders whilst doing so. Here's my one year anniversary/travel summary audio c-blog.

Other work: I also write for a site called Negative Gamer which was started by Wardrox. It's super cool and full of dinosaurs. RAWR!

Destructoid Cards

I've made many a card for many a Dtoider after getting the idea from a forum thread in which Atheistium posted a template and a challenge. Currently I'm a little too busy with school/work/fighting enemies of truth and justice to make more, but I'll get another batch out eventually. Here are links to all my Dtoid card posts!
