It's been a while since I played MtG, but I think TW would be a great
Since you are gathering the same data set off each card, try using
hideWhen, customFields, and templates.
You put together an edit template (CardTemplateEdit) something like:
<div class='card-info'>
Color: <span macro='edit c-color'></span> <br />
Type: <span macro='edit c-type'></span> <br />
Rarity: <span macro='edit c-power'></span> <br />
Attack: <span macro='edit c-attack'></span> <br />
Defense: <span macro='edit c-defense'></span> <br />
Number of: <span macro='edit c-number'></span> <br />
</div>
Same for a viewTemplate (CardTemplateView) with all the edits changed
to view.
Then in your EditTemplate you put something like:
<div macro="showWhen tiddler.tags.contains('Card') || tiddler.title
== 'New Card'"> [[CardTemplateEdit]]</div>
And in the ViewTemplate:
<div macro="showWhenTagged Card">[CardTemplateView]]</div>
Now add in the following in a convenient location:
<<newTiddler label:'Add a card' title:'New Card' tag:'Card'>>
When you click it, it opens a tiddler tagged Card, ready to collect
your data.
All that is left is using ForEach to gather all the data and display
it in a fashion you like.
For something that does a lot of this, take a look at:
http://no-sin.com/wiki/WorkTracker.html
Just occurred to me:
Use what I wrote above to gather the data on your entire collection.
Then use tiddlerSlices (http://tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Slice) to list data
on different decks;
|Goblin Deck|3|
|Destroy It All|4|
|World Beater|0|
Write a forEach that uses the containing tiddler's title to look up
all info on the cards in that deck. So if you put it into a tiddler
titled Goblin Deck it would list the name of the card and how many to
put in to the deck.
