March 8, 2013: Bulky Trade Binders
You can now store all the cards you offer for trade in a single binder, without having to split them by sets. This way people can browse all your cards in one place the same way they would do if you would hand them your binder when meeting in person. Though, of course, your binder at Trade Cards Online is visible to everyone around the world so that you can get more and better offers!
If you have more than 540 cards in your list they will be split into several binders, 30 pages each, so that they are not too bulky!...

February 23, 2013: Uploading your lists made easier
When you need to add a lot of cards to your haves and wants, the option to upload a text file is very convenient, because it lets you upload as many cards as you want in one single go. But generating the file with the data in the correct format can be a lot of work.
This is why we are offering now a utility that lets you download a template file correctly formatted that you can simply then update with the correct amounts and use to upload to the site. You just save the template in your computer, edit it with a text editor, and update the amounts for those cards that you want to add to your lists. The file is now ready for you to upload to the site so that the cards get added to your haves and/or wants.
Check it out and let us know if you like it.
We want to thank user emoss for suggesting this feature.
February 14, 2013: Search Haves and Wants
When other users' lists are very long, it is convenient to be able to filter them down to those cards that interest you. You can now do that with the new search form we have added to everybody's lists.
You can select from the cards a user has only those of a given rarity, for example, so that you can concentrate on those that may be of most interest for you. And you can do that with your own lists too, so it is much easier to make sure they are up to date and to explore your collection and your list of wanted cards.
We hope this will be of convenience for you all.

November 3, 2012: More prizes!
We are now giving away more prizes! Decks of the Week and Dream Cards of the Week are now awarded each one month of Premium membership. So you have now even more ways to become Premium for free!
And in order to better distribute the prizes and prevent them from going every week to the same game, we are forcing now alternation among games from one week to the next. The winners for a week will be chosen from the Card Reviews, Decks, and Dream Cards belonging to games that did not win the same prize the previous week. This way we are making sure that the same game does not monopolize the prizes week after week. We hope this will give you all better chances to enjoy free Premiums from your contributions to the site.
September 1, 2012: Faster game servers
We have moved our game rooms to new servers which are much more powerful and faster. This should end with any lagging issues and any errors that you may have experienced before. Hopefully you can now have a smooth gaming experience and play away the hours!
Please let us know if you notice any issues with this migration.
Update: We have doubled the number of tables for standard users! We have also increased the total number of tables. This means less waiting and more playing!
