This looks really intriguing and fun (but difficult, seems like there will be a whole lot of edging)!
However, I have looked at the rules and what is actually going on in the thread and I don't feel that I am really able to follow what is actually happening as it doesn't seem to match. (Largely about the order of the steps as laid out in the rules, compared to how people actually play.)
Here are my questions/observations:
The initial post says to check which card effects affect you before playing cards, but in a response it was explained that cards you play do not affect you.
This seems contradictory, should steps 4 and 5 be switched around so that you play the cards before you check what effects apply to you?

STEP 4: See which cards apply to you today:
Possible Effects On Your Round
- Spoiler: show
-
- 'Effect While Holding' of your cards
- Effects from previous cards that last longer than one round
- Cards played against you (that affect your round)
- Per round there is a maximum of four offensive cards that apply to it.
- This excludes all cards that do not affect your round (example: a card that lets you edge to a video) or cards that have been played in a former round that have a longer lasting effect.
- Any card that goes beyond that amount will apply on your next round instead.
STEP 5: Play any cards you wish to play. Per round you may play
one card offensively and/or
one card defensively.

- The moment you play the card it is no longer in your hand, so the holding effect does not count for that round!
The rules also say that you post your pics right after finding the edging categories from half (rounded up) of your cards (before looking at effects from cards, etc).
I see no mention of posting pics for the other categories (effects, etc), still I get the impression that everyone is posting pics also for those. Am I just misreading the rules, or should 2 (posting pics) be moved later in the order of the steps? (right before 6?)

STEP 1: Edging to:
- Spoiler: show
- - Count the number of cards you have (should be 5 at the start). Now divide this number by 2, and round it up (5 : 2 = 2.5 = 3).
- The number of the previous step is the number of cards you will randomize of your current cards. Every card has a category. The cards you randomize will be the categories you have to edge to during this round. You edge once per category for every picture containing your category (if a card doesn't state otherwise). This means that if your category is 'Ass' and a picture contains three asses it's only one edge. If your categories are 'Ass' and 'Blonde' and a picture contains an ass and a blonde, it will need two edges.
- You edge to the last full page.
STEP 2: Before you start edging to the last page, post a picture or gif for each of your categories!
To be clear, as it is a fairly complex game, I think it would be great if you could just follow the steps from top to bottom... but that does not seem to be how it is actually played, which makes me hesitate regarding how to actually get started.
