Hello!
 
I have an idea for a playing card game. I have even played it some times with a couple of friends and they seemed to enjoy it. I'd like to have some feedback on it, even if it is only to say that it sucks. Does anyone know where I might be able to find playing card games fans that would be interested in reading the rules and giving me some feedback or ideas?

A trick-taking game is a card game or tile-based game in which play of a "hand" centers on a series of finite rounds or units of play, called tricks, which are each evaluated to determine a winner or "taker" of that trick. The object of such games then may be closely tied to the number of tricks taken, as in plain-trick games such as Whist, Contract Bridge, Spades, Napoleon, Rowboat, and Spoil Five, or on the value of the cards contained in taken tricks, as in point-trick games such as Pinochle, the Tarot family, Rook, All Fours, Manille, Briscola, and most "evasion" games like Hearts. The domino...
 
Hmm, should've googled it. :P
 
I read other playing card games' rules and that's where I learned those words
 
I can see your version being pretty fun! I don't see my playgroup playing it (we're all MtG addicts) but it could be nice for family games.

Thanks! I have played this a few times, but not nearly enough to know if it has any flaws, or to understand the game and its strategy.
