Cards Against Humanity (online Quebec French version)

A little project I'm working on for a group of friends who developed their own version of Cards Against Humanity for themselves, I translated the interface of this website in French and put a few French Canadian decks in there because I guess it's funnier when the cards are about your own culture, right?

Ooh I like the idea. I'Ll have to check the website. Are there any cards meant as satire in it? That can get quite fun when self-derision is involved.

The Québec Bronies pack just pokes fun at themselves and everything that happened in that group, so it's just really, really fun. Especially when you're in that group. (Otherwise, I don't think you could get all the jokes...) The other one I have now on that site is the translation of the official CaH game, so it's more aimed for a general public.

The first goal was to host that pack to be played online (they printed it to be played at meetups, but it kind of sucked you couldn't play it online until now as meetups are not that frequent and the group is mostly online on Facebook), another one is to allow for more of them.

So yeah, every single card down to the very concept of the game is satire.

Does it have references about our governments, way of life, recent events and stuff? And yeah if I played CaH about ponies I doubt I would understand anything.

Not knowing how to read French is a slight problem for me lol

In your case, you'd probably want the American version, Pretend you're Xyzzy or Cards Against Equestria (the latter I forked to make my French version).

By the way juju, how much disk space does the database for this take on CW? Because I checked earlier to make a backup and there was over a million table entries for CaH, some of which were particularly NSFW

Oh it's just some test I did with another version a while ago I guess I can discard it.

Ah ok. Ideally it would be better to keep CW server for CW activities to avoid overloading it, since we are trying to keep hosting costs to a minimum.
