Is the Card lore correct[edit]

What you have listed in the episode summmary, and what was listed in the card lore seem completely different.

From Episode 195 summary

Turn 17: Zigfried Zigfried draws "Pot of Greed" and subsequently activates it to draw 2 cards. He then activates "Magical Alms", which increases Zigfried's Life Points by 1000 upon its activation (Zigfried 1100 → 2100). Now during each player's turn, the turn player can guess how many Spell Cards they will activate for the rest of that turn. Both players will then gain 500 Life Points for each Spell Card guessed. If the turn player activated less or more Spell Cards than he had guessed though, that player will take 1000 damage for every Spell Card guessed during their End Phase. Zigfried proceeds to use the effect of "Magical Alms", predicting he will activate one more Spell Card this turn. Both players gain 500 Life Points (Zigfried 2100 → 2600; Seto 550 → 1050)

From your above post from turn 17. Both players would take damage equal to the number of cards you guess x 1000.

Yet

In your Wikia Entry for this card

You make it out to believe the damage is equal to the number of cards you activated x 1000.

New Card Lore[edit]

Hey everyone,

I made an edit; however, I thought it'd be best to discuss it first before making large changes on my own, so I undid it. I wanted to change this lore to: "When you activate this card, gain 1000 Life Points. During each player's turn, the turn player must predict how many Spell Cards they will activate for the rest of that turn, then both players gain 500 Life Points x the number of Spell Cards predicted. During the End Phase of each turn, if the turn player activated less Spell Cards than predicted, they take 1000 damage x the number of Spell Cards they predicted they would use".

Here, I changed "can" to "must" (which I noticed had some debate in the past edits), as well as the turn player taking damage if the number of Magic Cards used is LESS than predicted. I based these edits on this episode (@ 16:45 for the "can" to "must" debate) and (@ 16:53 where Zigfried states that the damage is dealt when LESS cards are predicted). I was wondering what others think. Thank you all, --ToonPegasus (talkcontribs) 14:19, December 3, 2015 (UTC)
