Cards

Premise
Within the game of Sim Sports World, there is a basic card game that can enhance your gaming experience. Such cards can give you boosts in all the different Sim Sports World leagues as well as unlocking special features. Cards are structured similar to a real life card collecting game with rarities ranging from 0-16. Lower rarities are quite a bit more common than the higher ones, but the value of the card greatly increases as you go up in rarity as well.

Sim Sports World currently has 5 different packs of cards that are available to the user. Basketball Season 5, Basketball Season 5 Premier, Prestige Puntos, The Deck, and FUBAR Basketball.

Basketball Series 5
The Basketball Series 5 cards are purchasable at 100 Card Points per pack (6 cards in a pack) and can also be purchased in greater quantities for a discount. All card packs are valued to an average of 120 pts per pack (20 pts per card) These cards are your "use everyday cards," and contain a large assortment of cards that can be used for various things across all different leagues and modes. There are currently 175 different cards within Basketball Series 5, and you can check out the set here

Basketball Series 5 Premier
Series 5 Premier cards are the exact same cards as regular Series 5, but purchasing these packs give better chances for higher rarity cards than the regular packs. These are purchasable at 2 Tokens per pack (6 cards in a pack).

Prestige Puntos
Prestige Puntos are purchasable at 3 Tokens per pack (1 card in a pack). The Prestige Puntos card pack is a 7 card pack where you can ultimately transfer some of your tokens into Card Points. These cards range anywhere from 100 card points to 10,000 card points. The set can be viewed here

The Deck
The Deck Cards are a bit different from any other card set. Rather than directly purchasing these cards, you receive packs based on purchasing packs of other sets. You receive one pack of The Deck cards for every 10 packs you purchase of other sets and contain 2 cards per pack. These cards are shown with a number on the cards and suit (similar to a deck of cards in real life). The higher the umber on the card the more valuable. A 2 of any suit will get you a free pack of Basketball Season 5 cards, and prizes increase in value all the way up to a Black and Red Joker which will pay you out at 50,000 card points and 10,000 card points respectively. Like all card decks, the better the card, the more rare it is. Check out the full payout for each of The Deck cards here

FUBAR Basketball
FUBAR cards are SimSportsWorld's way of compensating users for any synching, or in-game issues. They're also available at random for winning contests within SimSportsWorld. These cards are not otherwise purchasable so receiving these cards are always great considering they're always 100% free. To see the complete set, visit here.

Customization Cards
Within the Basketball Series 5 Cards there are common cards labeled as "Customization Cards." In Sim Sports World we have created the ability for you to change team names, logos, courts, and even conference names in the various modes to whatever you would like them to be. Customizing and switching the names, courts, logos, and conferences only affects what you view with your account, everybody else will still see the defaults unless they customize them as well. SimSportsWorld resembles the real world basketball system, so collecting these cards can allow you to remake as much of the system as you like to resemble real life, or can be used to add some interesting flavor to the team names you see when you log in. To customize your view of the league, you can visit this page.

The Auction House
Within Sim Sports World there's also an auction house. Looking to get some more points? Have too many of one card? How about looking for a particular card that you just can't seem to find in a pack? Look no further, the Auction House can fulfill all of your needs.

To bid on cards, simply visit the Auction House and begin to shop around. You can usually find a large assortment of cards ending anywhere from 1 hour to a week. Once you find the specific card you are looking for, or maybe you just see a good deal on a card, click directly on that card and it'll bring you to the auction screen. Place your bid at the top right and it'll enter the new bid if you outbid the user before you.

If you're looking to sell a card, go to the collection that the card is located, and click "view card" Once that opens you'll see a highlighted blue button saying, "Sell This Card". Once on the sell screen you'll have a few options before sending the card to the auction house.


 * Length of Auction: Ranges anywhere from 1 hour to 7 days.
 * Reserve (Optional): if you want to set minimum amount, you can set a reserve to where the auction transaction will not be completed unless the final bid is greater than the reserve amount. (15 points for any reserve).
 * Description (Optional): Write in your own description of this card so users know exactly what it is.

Once you are done, simply click "Sell" and your card will be placed in the auction house for the designated time.

There is also an option to sell a card lot in the auction house. This basically allows you to sell multiple cards at once in the same auction which gives you a good way to bundle a large amount of cards. This also gives you the oppotunity to receive a large amount of card points if the card lot is popular. To sell a card lot, simply click "Sell Card Lot" from the card screen and follow the instructions on the page.
