Jazz 5020 Posted August 22, 2014 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DJ2Z_Skz3rBzzihsiFj1Oxg-dpwQFkGJqKqvA0YYE1o/edit#gid=0 Hey guys, I made this spreadsheet to help us all find other players on duelingnetwork who play the retro formats we care about. I've got a few names already but decided to make this public and post it on a bunch of different sites. The reason I made it public is so everyone can add their own username and check off the formats that they play. I figured this is the fastest and easiest way to get the contact book as full as possible. Hopefully people don't screw it up too bad--I've got a duplicate copy that I can back up occasionally. Needless to say I don't want people changing the column headings or other people's grids. If you have a suggestion though, please post it here. One cool feature in the spreadsheet is that you can use the filters at the top row to see only the names that go with a particular format. For those unfamiliar with google docs, I also made a video explaining how to use it. Hope it makes sense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGFvGHIpo3o&feature=youtu.be Happy retro dueling! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jazz 5020 Posted August 22, 2014 What the heck is edison plants? Edison Format, yes. Quickdraw Format, yes. Plant format, no. Isn't that this one? http://duelistgroundz.com/index.php?showtopic=155008 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted August 22, 2014 It was, but it wasn't a plant format exclusively. Idk, I just got the feeling that if you put in edison plants people would take it as quickdraw mirrors and debris decks all day, where there were actually a bunch of other decks involved.

Jazz 5020 Posted August 22, 2014 Idk what that format is called. I don't/didn't play it myself. Do you have a better suggestion for the column name? Or should there be two separate columns for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted August 22, 2014 Just edison format I guess. Idk, just felt like being nitpicky, I hated playing plants that format. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazz 5020 Posted August 22, 2014 So what does the word Edison mean anyway? Why is it called that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Plsnobully 776 Posted August 22, 2014 Very neat. Adding myself to the spreadsheet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted August 22, 2014 So what does the word Edison mean anyway? Why is it called that? The only time the format was played was for one event, YCS edison or SJC edison or whatever it was back then (idk when they switch over). The list dropped, we played the format for edison, and then shining darkness dropped and we all know how that ended up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+mmf 23450 Posted August 22, 2014 did u seriously just take the time to bitch at him to call a format 'edison' instead of 'edison plants' 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
igtw 40 Posted September 16, 2014 Small bump. Saw my name on the list so I thought I'd participate in this thread. By pre-bans you mean the Yata-CED format or everything pre-October 2004? Exarion is included in CRV Goats only or also in "standard" goats too? I prefer Goats but I' open for every other format, save for Rulers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazz 5020 Posted September 17, 2014 I mean everything pre-oct 04. My thinking was so few ppl play those formats that may as well lump them all into one category. Not sure whether any of them are popular enough on their own to warrant separate columns. And yeah, exarion is in both goat categories. I never come across people who request non-exarion pre-crv goats, but I do know some people who want to play with Cyber Dragons occasionally. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Original_Pwnage 6 Posted October 5, 2014 This list was how I got a bunch of the players for the swiss tourney we have going on now, but the list can probably be edited to add all the others from the swiss tourney that arn't already on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ultimate Buffalo 1108 Posted October 5, 2014 baby dragon/rejuv format Dragon ruler mirror? was pretty much up there with DaD mirrors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookie / whoRILLA 12 Posted October 8, 2014 Add me to the List. My DN is Supreme x Shark. I play retro formats all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

»InfusionsCap 766 Posted January 15, 2015 I love how scattered the "X" marks are all across the page, with the exception of this massive column for the greatest format in the history of this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted January 15, 2015 I feel bad I'm the only person on the page who isn't down for goats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
»InfusionsCap 766 Posted January 15, 2015 I feel bad I'm the only person on the page who isn't down for goats. Don't feel bad about it. We like what we like. I could never stand Troop Dupe or Bazoo Return, but they were a huge thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazz 5020 Posted January 28, 2015 Somebody added a few new columns in the last month or so. What the heck are these and when are they from: Six Sam Blackwings ????? Also to make this list bigger for goats, I'm gonna start adding people I play or see playing occasionally. Just went to unlim section in watcher mode and like 5 of the top 8 duels were goats. If other motivated people wanna help contribute to that cause, that'd be cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted January 28, 2015 Six sams I would assume being STOR sams because that was the only time they were really relevant to the point of having their own format, but I remember that format being obscenely shitty, as in he who opens gateway + sams and goes first wins.

Doom Engine 6 Posted January 28, 2015 I'd be glad to add people to the goat section. I'll be sure to ask them first of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How long did it last / what dates? I'd be glad to add people to the goat section. I'll be sure to ask them first of course. No need. Just add them without asking lol. I can't think of a good reason not to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted January 28, 2015 It was literally about 3 weeks between the release of STOR and the updated banned list knocking gateway to 1. Sams were a thing in the format after, but they weren't as absurdly dominant. I don't remember the date on the list, but the list that ended it was the one where oppression was banned, and pretty much everything in blackwings went to 1. The only event during that date was YCS Dallas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Gemstone Mine 2589 Posted January 28, 2015 Also going on record by saying again that that format easily makes top 5 worst formats in the history of the game for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
