message: As far as I understand, the title of this game is A Game of Thrones”. Right? In that case, and given that I understand WP's naming conventions, the proper title for this article is A Game of Thrones collectible card game, to which I will move it unless there are objections.

replies: text: The game title fully has the Collectible Card Game (with capitals), so shouldn't be moved. Coldwind 15:09, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, no. The game title is A Game of Thrones. Right? The spelling of the term “Collectible card game” (not part of the title, as far as I can tell) on the box art wisely follows FFG editorial policy, but has no bearing on what we should do here.Arbor 19:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Hmmm... you appear to be correct. Serves me right for going by the logo. Everywhere I can find on the FFG page has it solely listed as A Game of Thrones. Thus, I support a move lower casing it (or... to be consistent with the board game, moving it to A Game of Thrones (collectible card game) Coldwind 20:52, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move to “A Game of Thrones collectible card game” 

message: Rutting time out... that edit by 142.176.0.18 was me. I coulda sworn I logged in...
Anyways, I finished the clean-ups for the remaining card types, as well as the game play section. I removed the informal deck types, as I could see no value in listing those, similar removal with the keywords, but I did add a common game terms and rules section. Could more go in there? Maybe we could add Immunity and Cannot Be..., but I kind of think those might complicate things for a casual reader right out of the gate.
I cut out the champions except for the World Champions. I don't mean to imply the other guys aren't deserving, but we can't list every tournament here, so I think a nice arbitrary line at the World Championship will suffice.
I made a few other minor tweaks, like the intro paragraphs to give a better idea of the nature/goal of the game, and removed some superfluous images.
Stuff that (I know) is left:
# New additions from Iron Throne edition - new card templates, new Multiplayer Titles, and possibly a multiplayer tournament format if released.
# Citations/references for the World Championships, and maybe the Awards.
# Moving the article as per Arbor above.

message: So Staton added some changes, I'm going to try and get references.
Also, going to split the table up between CCG sets and LCG sets. Seems to make more sense.
And maybe add in symbol expansions.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.221.197.21 (talk) 15:50, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Add some references and more cleanup 

message: Who put all these acronyms here?
"A Game of Thrones (or AGoT, for short) is a collectible card game (CCG) produced by Fantasy Flight Games (FFG), based on the A Song of Ice and Fire (ASoIaF) series of novels written by George R. R. Martin (GRRM)."
This is both hilarious and unencyclopedic.
