Support » Suggestions

This will be a topic full of suggestions that have been suggested along with a yes no or backlist for the result of said suggestion.

Yes - Will possibly be implemented in the future
no - 0 chance of being implemented at current time
backlist - doable but lowest priority

I will be compiling many suggestions and adding them to this post as they are made and as this is updated. I will also be updating our stance on certain subjects.[KEEP IN MIND THESE STANCES CAN CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT AND ARE MERELY FROM PAST DISCUSSIONS WE HAVE HAD] I myself discuss most of the suggestions posted with xteven or they are discussed as group. The answers posted will not always be definitive of his current stance or ours.

((((((SUGGESTIONS)))))))

New Avatars.) yes
New avatars are always a consideration but we do not take suggestions for them. When we decide its time for new avatars New ones will be voted on and old underused ones will be replaced.

Automatic Mode.) backlist
Duelingbook is a simulator that was established to replicate in real life play as much as possible. Due to the nature of the site itself automatic mode is not a priority consideration and takes a lot of time.

Custom skill cards.) backlist
very low priority and is at the bottom of the list of things to do.

Turn timer in duels.) No
The online nature of duelingbook makes such a thing near impossible to implement especially with needing to wait for a judge.

pause button removal or adjustment.) Under review.
This is something we go back and forth on due to it being the most missused feature on duelingbook.

Mobile assistance.) No
Duelingbook.com is not a mobile game but a browser game meant to be played on a pc therefore services and tech support and upates will be focused on that aspect and not towards making the site easier for mobile. Though we may have something seperate in store for mobile sometime down the road.

Change usernames.) No
There are a multitude of reasons that I cannot disclose but this is not on the table.

Pool queue number.) No/backlist
Was recently discussed. Possibility for the future but not now.

PLEASE UPLOAD NEW CARDS THEY HAVE BEEN OUT FOR A WEEK.) yes
New cards are uploaded as they are released please do not post threads asking for them to be uploaded. There is only 1 person that is able to upload the cards so they will be uploaded when they have free time and as soon as they are able to. If 1 or 2 cards are actually missing out of an entire set, just message me directly and I will make sure that they are legal and pass that information on so we can get them uploaded asap.

Disable users from watching duels.) No
players are always free to watch games that they come across or follow users watching their duels. At ycs and locals this is also the case and is part of the atmosphere. It would be completely unreasonable to disable a player from just watching your duel. If you really do not want your duel being watched then host in unrated with a password required for watchers.

Expanded deck options for custom duels.) No
Duelingbook is meant to simulate irl play. Customs is meant more of a fun toy feature simply because the owner likes them. Adding massive technical changes to what duelingbook is allowed to do just for 1 or 2 custom games is far from our higest priority.

Deck ripping tools.) no
We have safeguards in place becuase people tried to rip decklists in the past via ygoscope so this is something we actively try to prevent wherever possible.

Permaban stallers.) No
We have our rules table established here https://www.duelingbook.com/rules stalling is a 3 day freeze times number of infractions. We are not going to just permanently remove a player for stalling one time please stop asking us to do this.

Turn counter in game.) Yes
has been added

Get better servers.) Yes/Has happened
Yes stable and reliable servers are a great thing to have but this site is run entirely on donations and ad revnue. Better servers are expensive so the servers will be upgraded when it is able to do so within reason.

Can I get my old dn accounts back.) No
We are Duelingbook.

Edit the stats of monsters on the field.) No/partially
This is again something that goes against the manual nature of duelingbook itself. It is not that hard to keep track of stats irl and on duelingbook and on both you cannot write on the cards.(you can alter how you view the atk def but this does not alter the cards stats it is merely a note for your view only) The tool will only be implemented for unrated games and not rated.

Delete customs.) No
While many of us do not like them it also is not hurting anybody by existing. If you do not want to play customs then just do not use that part of the site.

captcha changes.) yes
The captchas will not be going away but certain things will be constantly monitored and altered to improve the experience.

pronouns.)no lol
if its that absolutely important to you feel free to put it in your profile desc. tho we arent going to force people to adhere to it.

Do not reset rating.) No
Rating is an indication of your performance for a format. Everytime a new banlist comes out the rating will be rest to 100. This will also serve as the season reset for goat format.

Add a report button.) yes
We have ways to report users via forum but perhaps an in game way to easily acces the report form may be something to consider.

Schedule for when the site is taken down or updated.) No
The site will always be down the night before a banlist to update the card pool and reset your rating to 100. aside from that updates and services are done whenever the person who does them is available so there is no set schedule to possibly give out.

Rules revamp.) Yes/new updates soon
We are constantly looking and considering changes to the rules of the site.

Ability to delete accounts.) No
We have reasons to not delete accounts even upon request and are certainly not going to give users the ability to do this.

Ability to change usernames.) No
Would cause nightmares to monitor.

Wokeness.) No
We are not politicians nor are we invested in anyones ideals.

Hire more judges.) Backlist
We are always looking to hire more judges but finding people who are quality and capable of doing the job is extremely rare. We are not going to just hire more people and lower our standards to get 100 judges on everyday we want to make sure the judges we have are capable and reliable.

Add more features to deck construtor.) Backlist
Yes we are always looking and doing small updates to this when possible. people have asked for things like folders for decks and favorite cards these would all be nice to have but are low priority.

Make unplayable cards playable.) Yes
Cards that are unable to be played due to the manual nature of duelingbook can be updated with enough time to work or have a button made for them.

Dueling bots.) No
Manual simulator

More ranked formats from days of old.) no/yes
Many of you have asked for more ranked formats for older formats. We have caved and added edison and there is literally no more room for more.

Improve replays.) backlist
Replays are highly used by the community and they could always be better. we have done some changes to replays recently which I'm sure some of you will have noticed and we will keep monitoring replays as well for issues and possible improvements. things such as making private cards visible are a possible consideration but about as important as deck folders on the priority list. Replays have been updated with some new features

Attack in def.) yes
Some cards have the ability to attack while in def position or while another card is in play providing them that effect.

Honestly, the report button would just be adding one more clickable object that takes you to [url:292ymezq]https://forum.duelingbook.com/posting.php?mode=post&f=7[/url:292ymezq], like the button on the start screen that takes you to the forum's main page

What about giving us the option to view decks and extra decks in replays since hands and face-down banished cards are already viewable in replays?

[quote="Christen57":12e2mhut]What about giving us the option to view decks and extra decks in replays since hands and face-down banished cards are already viewable in replays?[/quote:12e2mhut]

[quote="Christen57":3c1x3pif]What about giving us the option to view decks and extra decks in replays since hands and face-down banished cards are already viewable in replays?[/quote:3c1x3pif]

You wouldn't want it to see the opponent's deck though, right? They'd have to adjust for that somehow?

Of course you wouldn't use it to see decks mid game. It would be after the duel/match is over. Alternatively, if you're worried that some players may not want their decks visible in replays, you can have players chose an option in, like, the settings or something where they can choose to allow their decks and extra decks to be viewable or not in replays.

That would probably need to be the default setting, not allowing a player to see your deck/extradeck after the match.

A good start would be making it so decks and extra decks are visible in replays but only in non-tournament duels/matches, as duelingbook's cheating rules don't really apply in unrated so it should never matter if someone sees cards/customs you played in unrated, and in the default rated pool where you get paired with random opponents, players can always change their deck after each match (or after each duel if playing singles) so even if you see that someone played a certain deck in default rated pool, that doesn't mean they'll still be using that same deck against their next opponent.

Better yet, make it so that decks and extra decks become visible in replays once the replay itself reaches a week old or something, as by then, it becomes impossible to try and use any information about that deck for any unfair advantage, as any tournament/match they were using that deck in is now long over meaning they could've completely changed their deck since then.

replays are currently not going to be adjusted again outside of the current changes. this may change in the near future

Remove the gender select option
Pros: less creepy harrasment (you admitted it happens), prevents future "wokeness" (people wont be asking for a "Attack helicopter") people who still want to display their gender on their profile for some reason can do so in their profile notes if theu really want to, its a setting 90% of players dont use in the first place so "why should we keep it for 10% of people" who use it.
Cons- literally none.

1. Doesnt remove the idea of gender it removes a drop down menu no one uses.
2. You are admitting you are refusing this suggestion solely to spite non binary people then? Because there are no other reasons listed as to why it shouldnt be implimented.

Dont take offence to this, or do, but ill be submitting an abuse report regarding what youve said in this and a few other topics, i dont think you should be allowed to decide something should or should not be included based soley on your own pejudice and nothing else, like you said, you do not soley decide was does and does not get implimented, and preventing suggestions that would better the site, or at the very least do little to nothing to make it worse based on nothing but your homophobia is massively abusive.

I know you said this is on the backlist in terms of priority but I think making the report feature more accessable in game or at least on the site itself will go a long way. Means one can do it there and then instead of letting it stew and potentially forgetting about it.

Why are you still bringing up homophobia? Homophobia is fear of gay people. It has nothing to do with genders which is what this discussion is about. Duelingbook already has a option to select "Gay" as your orientation in the settings.

2. You are admitting you are refusing this suggestion solely to spite non binary people then? Because there are no other reasons listed as to why it shouldnt be implimented.

I gave you reasons why this shouldn't be implemented — reasons you have yet to answer: Because there are only 2 genders which are male and female, because you still won't provide any evidence to back up your theory about this mysterious third gender existing and a chromosome combination which confirms it's existence, and because you still haven't addressed my other arguments in the locked thread.

Its a higher priority for sure it will likely be a main menu option right below forum. We just gotta keep the servers stable first

Make unplayable cards playable.) Yes
Cards that are unable to be played due to the manual nature of duelingbook can be updated with enough time to work or have a button made for them.

I hope my extension can fix cards that have that problem, I imagine it did on a lot of cards, but if there's a card that cannot be played at all, or demands a lot of dancing, I would love to know.

I even added a button for Exchange of the Spirit.

"This card can attack while in face-up Defense Position"
"You can Set this card from your hand to your Spell & Trap card zone"
"You can Set this card from your hand to your Spell and Trap card zone"
"becomes revealed"
"remain revealed"
"bottom"

These are the official dueling book effects that add buttons

The second one is Artifact Scythe.

The last one enables bottom decking cards.

Hey there Genexwrecker

I know you said deck options for customs is a no but what about expanding custom card options on the cards themselves? example below

https://www.deviantart.com/sangmaitre/a ... -735635441

would be great if we could edit name text to ultra-rare and secret-rare (secret white, gold and prismatic), I did make a post in suggestions months ago, but no reply. Thought I'd try this thread to see if I can get answers. All my custom cards I use secret, ultra-rare and prismatic card portraits would be great to finish the sets. I've got some good feedback on how they look during my duels, both with my opponent and audience they seem to love them. This all just ties in with the theme of my decks I've made

My obsession with custom card making has hit its 1 year mark, I've mainly stayed on DB vs master duel just for the custom card luxury master duel does not have

this option could be for card makers that donate to DB monthly to give you a business reason to add this feature.


Thank you

and honestly no idea what hes talking about, never dueled him before

Can the deck constructor be updated so we can search monsters that have ATK equal their own DEF, and search monsters whose ATK and DEF add up to a certain value? There are a lot of effects that only work on/with monsters whose ATK equal their own DEF so this update would prove useful.

Excavation as a mechanic:

While my extension is pumping work, I believe excavation should have a proper zone ( like the banish pile, placed on to the left of the deck )
Keep in mind, making the main deck the excavation zone itself, where face-up is the excavated and face-down is the deck, won't work because parasite paracide.

Excavation doesn't move cards anywhere, it's just the process of revealing cards from the top of the deck. This is easily done on DB by milling or banishing the cards to be excavated from the top of the deck, and then moving them to the proper location after.

It's as easy as using /banish[x] (x is the number of cards you need to excavate) or /mill[x] and then returning them to the deck or whichever location they need to go. It takes 15-20 seconds to do if you're dealing with a significant number of cards. We're not going add a nonexistent zone that will confuse players just so some can save a few seconds when excavating. Playing on DB isn't a speedrun, not everything needs to be optimized to be as fast as possible.

Thoughts on adding Master Duel as a format?

I understand the dislike of adding old formats like Edison, but master duel will surely be an interesting add.


Card Pool of MD.txt

Code to extract the cards from master duel meta:

Code.js

Example of how to use the code:

This is an example to turn the client-sided array "Cards" into a list of Master Duel Cards

Edit: I mean of course, unranked. Master Duel ranked is a bit not feasable unless DB booms in popularity.

Ability to pause duels to resume on a later day.

This is useful for casual tournaments, where sometimes it's not easy to dedicate an entire hour.

This also comes with a hidden benefit ( although only for casual games ) where if we're stuck on some ruling, we can pause, ask someone relevant, then return later while continuing to duel in rated / casual against someone else.

Konami made Master Duel a video game property? I would like to see the legal documentation over that, but I don't know how to find those things...

Ability to like & dislike custom cards, eventually able to view ranks on customs based on the feedback & sorting by likes when searching for custom cards for an archetype.

Command /takeback 1/2/3/4/5, which takes back your last action.

When both players agree, the last x action will be taken back

This is useful for both rewinding illegal gamestates as far as possible as you like, and the most important one, if a player accidentally requires a judge to confirm the hand's contents, this can be avoided if you accidentally shuffle your hand or accidentally don't reveal the card you bottom deck.

So you guys did add stat changing

[quote="LimpBizkit4real":3p3eatxf]So you guys did add stat changing[/quote:3p3eatxf]
Its more of he woke up one morning drunk and it just kinda happened along some other new toys. You still cannot edit stats on the cards. This is more of note taking.

We also updated xyz monsters

I wish I could see the update patches

Some form of better handling for "look at the top X cards in your deck" effects would be nice. Compared to excavating where what you pull is common knowledge, "look at" remains private. With DB as it stands now my process for resolving something like the on-activation effect of Dark Magical Circle is as follows:

1. If I have cards banished facedown already, add something already common knowledge face-up to the banished pile temporarily as a spacer to make the separation between what I'm looking at and what I've already banished clear to my opponent.

2. /banishfd 3

3. Look at banished face-down cards, and if one of the 3 is Dark Magician or a spell/trap that mentions it, move it to the field to reveal it, then add it to the hand.

4. Put the remainder at the top of the deck in any order.

5. Return the spacer card from wherever I moved it.

This is a really convoluted way to resolve one effect and because of some of the particular weird stuff I have to do I have to outline the process for my opponent as well, making it extremely time-consuming. Having a separate command to "look at" cards and have them appear in a pop-up window, with options to reveal and add from there, would dramatically expedite the whole process.

I typically add the cards to my hand to "look at" but I don't shuffle my hand so my opponent knows where those 3 cards were.

Y'know that is probably a lot easier. Excuse me while I go bang my head on a wall now.

Can you add Manga/Anime only monster types?

DB's interface has a solution to this, which I'll try to achieve with my chrome extension.

You can set the top cards of your deck on the field ( it will require 3 empty spaces on either your frontrow or backrow )

some things on the list have been updated

Hiring more Judges with a Gardevoir profile picture.) No
There can be only 1 best and bright Judge at here, and this issue is not open to discussion.

No you are able to adjust what you see on atk and def but the stats are not altered and will appear normal to everyone else. Its just a note taking version. Allowing free editing of stats would be absurd

This is incorrect and the stat changing is also reflected on the logs ( I have just checked this. Could be exclusive to unrated but it works on unrated )


Suggestion: The 5 cards that require your opponent not to shuffle their hand after drawing a card will let you end your turn in a way that prevents your opponent from shuffling their hand for 10 seconds, which causes the second suggestion: Auto shuffle when a card is drawn.

Accelerate with waiting times/calls for the arrival of the judges, because waiting from 2 to 6 hours of rated game is a lot.
(From what I remember, last year, the availability of the judges was great, not now.)

Would love to see that the tab content changed when someone tries to join a duel/waiting for me to accept. I'm often on a different tab when waiting for someone to duel with. I would find that to be a great quality of life feature.

Could you implement the option of Reveal Hand on Click and Echo, like You would for Heavenly lord of the sky prison?

Suggestions:
1. Add a new way to ban banevaders (harder to evade i.e. Webgl hashes + useragent + hardware information)

2. Remove the harassment policies or readjust them to be less vague.

3. Unmute Vendetta

4. Figure out a way to remove EXE forever / Give him a villain arc.

5. Remove About Me "orientation", Duelingbook is suppose to be a child's platform -- I do not think such things should exist like that.

6. Add a way to email DB to remove your account (to comply with GDPR).

7. Add a way to comply with law enforcement (Because we don't have that)

8. Add a Xteven's dev notes / patch logs to see what was changed and remove that whitebox when you're logging in with the button "What's New" with every update, even if minor.

9. Add an inbuilt API for basic rulings i.e. db.ygorganization.com/search# + cardname / cardid from the import resource: https://static.duelingbook.com/cards.json (ex. https://db.ygorganization.com/card#13977)

10. Make posting any IPv4, IPv6 and MAC address get hidden from Main Menu (filtering).

11. Add dislikes (low prio) and make a new filter for showing posts you actually want e.x. friends + similar so adding people is finally useful.

12. Make a new export feature to list all card names in a .txt file with cardid + card names (split by 2)

13. Make Klubba read every custom card and singlehandedly manage the custom cards and its standards (Klubba do no wrong), approving any new additions to the cardpool (even if private).

14. Allow satire.

15. Ability to replace card text (for Infernoid or others)

16. Rig drawing cards so people who play Invoked can never have Invocation, Meltdown or Aleister even if they drew/added it to their hand.

17. Add back browse users.

18. Add a council that serialized finding manga sources.

19. Add a calculator to DB.

20. add a unique identifier so you can tell if a card is a custom card easier i.e. card?id=%NUM%CC or make them embed like this but the entire card: https://i.imgur.com/h42wmUG.png


Some satire in these suggestions.

I want default art for Custom cards, where if you don't upload an image, the art square now has the card's name or something instead of nothing. It will make playing with/against artless customs a bit more readable, since a lot of players use the art to tell which card is which.

[quote="Christen57":vpzx6r1e]Can we get the option to join both the singles pool and match pool at the same time in advanced rated? Sometimes I just want to play somebody in ranked and don't care if I battle 'em in a best of 1 or best of 3.

Right now, if I join the best-of-1 pool, but everyone else is in the best-of-3 pool at the moment, I won't get paired up with an opponent and will have to wait long periods of time until someone joins my pool. The same is true if I join the best-of-3 pool while everyone else is in the best-of-1 pool at the moment.

I'd like to join some sort of hybrid pool where the game tries to pair me up with someone either from the best-of-1 pool (where I would play a best of 1 with that person) or from the best-of-3 pool (where I would play a best of 3 with that person), whoever the game can pair me up with first. That lets me get into a game faster, instead of being allowed to join only one pool at a time.[/quote:vpzx6r1e]
This would fall into the same category as edison ranked
