    What I'd probably do is:

    Order by corp/runner
    organise by faction
    organise by type
    organise by release date

    as new cards are added you put them in the end of their type. If you run out of space, add another binder sheet.

    I will one day get around to buying binders and doing this

    Heh, again with this?
    I have two binder - one corp, one runner. Within each, I organize by faction via release date. It works quite well since you're always adding to the end and it's kinda handy for knowing where everything should be in the long-run.
    However I think I'm going to start new binders after D&D as I'm rather close to having these ones comfortably full. I may decided to put the core and deluxes into their own binders as the "always around" cards and see if I can sqeeze all current cycles into two binders, but ... I rather like having everything there in order. Gives the game's history some physical presence. :)

    I just put my cards into binders

    it took me like five hours (partially because I fucked up halfway through and had to redo a bunch of it)

    totally worth it

    now if only there were any decks I wanted to build

    I'm not looking to start The Great Binder vs. Not Binder flame war, but here's something I don't understand: do you not have to redo everything every time a new pack comes out? Unless you store them in release date order, I suppose.

    I did have them all released in a way I found pleasant (faction then type then alphabetically) but it was a huge fucking pain in the ass and was not a good optimization of binder pages (or binders) at all.

    Now I have them in release date order and it's much simpler. I have about two cycles fitting into a 1 inch binder which is perfect since that means each binder will rotate out together.

    My only problem is that I currently have the cores and deluxe expansions in one binder that will never rotate out, but I'm not sure it's going to be feasible to cram Data and Destiny into that.

    I organize by faction, type and cost and just leave a lot of empty space everywhere. When adding new cards I usually only have to move one or two cards around. Worst case add one new binder page and move four cards.

  • ShortyShorty touching the meat Intergalactic Cool CourtRegistered User regular
    I organized by faction>type>release date

    so when a new card comes out it goes to the end of its section

    it's an organization method that works well only if you assume that whoever's accessing it has a rough of idea of when everything was printed

    which I do! so it works pretty well.

    the fuckup was, I had first arranged it by faction, then by release date, then by type

    and halfway through I was like "no this is the dumbest thing in the universe, why am I doing it this way"

    I just got done with the great bindering as well. The order I ended up with was two binders one corp and one runner and then dilinated further by corp/runner type and then by sets I own. So in my corp binder I've got sections for Jinteki, NBN, Haas-Bioroid, Weyland and neutral. For example, my Jinteki section has Jinteki base set all in numerical order then it goes to the Jinteki Honor and Profit set again in numerical order. I always start a different set with a fresh page, this gives a clear visual break between sets. I ended up using these for my binders, they easily fit 3 unsleeved cards per slot.

    I find this binder setup better for browsing inspiration and finding my cards.

    I just jumped back in after a few months away, and fisk jank life is real fun so far. Running 3x investment seminar, ninja/corroder/zul, 2x apocalypse, and 3x uninstall. Game plan is to money up, threatening remotes and fisking archives (hopefully with desperado / dirty laundry / security testing), and then if they get a lot of ice out or a lot of assets up play apocalypse. Then it's fisk investment and fisk ability to deck them, with uninstall if i need my breakers back. I doubt I will actually deck someone very often but running centrals late in the game tends to score points fast, particularly if i manage to preserve a legwork.

    edit: haha NEH does not care even a little bit

    butchershop or rush, doesn't matter, i can't get a full rig before they win

    Just ran into a Wireless Net Pavillion, Fall Guy, Data Leak Reversal deck out of Leela. Siphon spam, Fisk Investment, and try to score out of archives. Real interesting. I was playing Blue Sun and managed to bait a facecheck into Cortex Lock on click 4, then picked it up, clicked, and scorched for the win. He had paparazzi in hand, so pretty lucky win.

    It seemed really good! Hard to beat without All Seeing I.

    I am going to give that a try on Wednesday when I pick up a copy of the new datapack.

    I also fancy a new, weird corp deck. Lots of people are playing HB right now so that's out. Maybe the new Jinteki one, but surely that's just played around by putting your truly vital cards on the table as soon as you get them? Genetics Pavilion seems like it might be fun somewhere, though.

    I'm really intrigued by Chronos Protocol. Yes, it can be played around, but that's where Power Shutdown and Batty/Destroyers/Will O' come in.

    But the thing that really interests me is that you get to see the Runner's whole grip. That's potentially a very powerful information advantage that you can abuse by rushing behind cheap binary ice.

    Maybe it won't be very good, but there's the potential for a really annoying control deck in there.

    I ended up not putting a ton of teeth into the deck, mostly banking on either using the already-good Jinteki glacier tools to score out while suppressing their breakers or just grinding them down with net damage and go for a kill with a fetal or something. The latter has been pretty easy to do lately because there's a lot of Faust with no Levy going on in my meta.

    Yep! Mostly because CP is the new, novel thing and I wanted to try it out.

    Also it can use some cards that I really like but don't really belong in RP, like House of Knives.

    I used to run a blacktree with 3 power shutdowns back when Maxx was common. Net damage through shock, snare, psychic field, house of knives. Wasn't too hard to deck someone.

    So I went to the Hadrian's Wall tourney on the weekend (at 54 people being the biggest event in Scotland to date) and managed to swing 8th and winning a nice Hadrians Wall signed by the artist. First time I've placed well in a big event :).

    Was very surprised to do so well considering the corp deck I brought was basically a Biotech Joke (50% of the time it works every time), but my Shaper Valencia deck brutally smashed its way through a sea of fast advance and saw me on the top tables. (More description in the links)

    Man I really want to know what the heck that freaking Tech Trader out of Business First does. I feel like with the connections in the pack after that, the Geist connections deck might be friggin ridiculous.

    I also have no idea what the hell I want to play as a runner at all. Nothing seems to be right at the nexus of competitive/interesting for me right now.

    Octgn.

  • ShortyShorty touching the meat Intergalactic Cool CourtRegistered User regular
    yeah there's also jinteki.net but you have to be really careful about what deck you play since a lot of cards aren't implemented

  • ChaosHatChaosHat Hop, hop, hop, HA! Trick of the lightRegistered User regular
    Jinteki.net suuuuuuuucks. It's only advantage is the browser based part.

  • LykouraghLykouragh Registered User regular
    I kind of like jinteki.net- the way it implements servers is nicer than OCTGN's and finding a game is quicker. There are some annoying unimplemented cards though.

  • ShortyShorty touching the meat Intergalactic Cool CourtRegistered User regular
    jinteki.net is mostly terrible but the way servers and runs are implemented is a lot better than octgn

    it's a natural consequence of the software being built specifically for netrunner instead of for every game and just sort of kludged together

    it's a shame that a lot of really important cards aren't implemented (last time I checked it didn't even have Medium), though, but that's how it is with a one-man dev team

  • LykouraghLykouragh Registered User regular
    They've been working pretty quickly and have more than one man now. The only card that I played with recently that was unimplemented was Chronos Protocol, which was still super new at the time.

  • ShortyShorty touching the meat Intergalactic Cool CourtRegistered User regular
    ah then my only remaining complaint was that clicking and dragging cards in your hand as the runner used to tell the corp what was in your hand

  • AnzekayAnzekay Registered User regular
    Yeah jinteki.net has got considerably better in the last couple months, I wouldn't call it awful anymore. Still got some hiccups and it's annoying to fix a mistake you make but a lot of the guys in my local meta use it over octgn now

  • BogartBogart Streetwise Hercules Registered User, Moderator mod
    Tried out the Leela DLR deck someone mentioned earlier and a Chronos Protocol deck last night. Leela did OK, but she was kinda slow. Once the full rig was out she milled a Blue Sun deck pretty brutally, with each Fall Guy costing six to trash before he could even think about killing the Papparazzi or the DLR. Fisk Investment Seminar helps with the milling a lot, as you'd expect, and forces the corp to throw away valuable stuff he'd rather keep. The deck might be better out of Andy, though.

    Had less luck with the CP deck. Sniping the breaker from hand is great, and I was able to get myself in a position where my servers were pretty much impenetrable in one game, only for him to walk through a Crick for a datasucker token and then win a Psi game with Caprice to Medium dig through R&D. Blacklist was important, but it felt too tricky to keep everything in place to keep the runner out. You have to snipe the right cards, put Blacklist behind something they can't get through to stop the recursion and hope. Power Shutdown against someone's Net Ready Eyes is good times, though.

    I am the WORST regarding Inside Job. Sometimes I'm like "Well it's three cards out of 45. Like what are the odds he has it RIGHT NOW?" They always fucking have it. It is these risks that end me.
