Subject: Basic Newbie Mistakes -Warulf
Well here's some basic mistakes newbies make...

1. Most obvious one...not reading the rules.

2. Traps can't be activited during ur turns except for some like just deserts, ulimate summoning, etc.

3. Magic placed on the field are faster than magic from hand...
Example: u cannot use a de-spell from ur hand to despell a spell that ur opponent just used.

4. THE CARD GAME RULES ISN'T BASED ON THE TV SHOW!!!  IN THE SHOW YOU MUST KNOW THAT THEY PLAY BY SPECIAL RULES!!! now that i got that out of my system...examples are:

a. You must offer 1 monster for a lvl 5 - 6. You must offer 2 monsters for a lvl 7+.
b. You cannot use your monster to attack a land. (remember Yugi used a burning land magic to attack the land =P)
c. You need to do special things for a fission card.
d. There are no weaknesses or strengths in the card game.

Well that's all that i can think of now...if i made a mistake on something. Remember i'm a human. Humans makes errors.
