Remedies Marking System (Concept)
Added 2020-05-06 23:40:30 +0000 UTCI love to find new ways to mark playing cards. But I don't like those systems where you need to study 5 years before you can read it.
Because of the simplistic back design of the Remedies there are just a few options to mark the cards. I came pretty fast to the conclusion that I just want to create a marking for the suits since everything else would be too complicated.
If you take a look at the bottom line in the feather you see the top end moving clockwise.
You see that the first line is clearly before the hollow shaft (yes I googled this therm...).
Like that you immidiately know that this is a Spades card.
Hearts comes closer to the hollow shaft.
Clubs is on the same line with the hollow shaft.
And Diamonds go past the hollow shaft to the right.
Hearts and Clubs isn't really easy to tell apart in the first second but you'll see you don't need longer than 2 seconds.
This system didn't make it into the first edition. I didn't had enough time to think about if I really like the system. It definitely isn't bad but I also wanted to keep the first Remedies back design as clean as possible.

Yes, no marking system. Check: https://youtu.be/W2tWs-TJzyI

2020-08-28 10:54:07 +0000 UTCI just opened my remedies. Did y’all decide not to do the marking system? And secondly for the angle z gaff I’m guessing I’m supposed to use that card to tear the corner because obviously I can’t give away a perfect ace with an ace corner on the back. Would be obvious use of dupes.

2020-05-12 18:20:13 +0000 UTCI like that idea. For me many decks have backs that are complicated patterns to hide a code things like petals or small circles. The backs of remwdies are quite minimilistic and hide the marks in plain site. This is a system I would feel confident using in a routine. Excellent work

2020-05-10 18:07:19 +0000 UTCI really liked the idea of marking the remedies, especially since the design is so simplistic they'll never see it coming😂 however, I think it's a little too subtle, can I suggest somewhere I instead? I mean you don't have to do it, maybe for future reference?
