hello all. At one point in time, i had a magic random name generator which took from 3 different text files and do random suffixes and prefixes. Im sure this is possibly one of the easiest programs to write. I just know diddily about programming.

Anyone know where i can find a simple software like that. I got some really good ones out of it. With the 300dpi card templates i made, print quality is never a problem. The 2 problems being a name for the card, and an image.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Your brain.

I assume it can make up more names, and kinda takes out the random factor.

Hmm ok. 7,000+ cards in existence, some with prefixes or suffixes only used once.and some with 2 suffixes. so yeah i can narrow down 15-21,000 choices off the top of my head.

Guess, youre right. All i have to do is write down every prefix and suffix i can think of off the top of my head... and playing for only 10 years that list should be really small...lets see.

etc,etc,etc, you get the idea.

Besides i have too many fakes to try and think up individual names. If i use a generator i'd get combinations that'd never occur to me.. like a crap common from homelands with a suffix from mirrodin.

btw. the word ice, or of ice repeats 8 times above. Imagine how repetitive things could be if i had 700 of each. You think wizards comes up with set ideas in advance from brainstorming each individual card?
