Because I see pokemon projects made with RPGXP all over the place, and those seem to get a lot of volunteers...

I guess my first question would be how to organize the card classes. The server passes messages to the clients via strings, which makes card effect negation and such difficult.

I am a high school student currently taking AP Comp Sci, but this project is not an assignment.
I am looking to assemble a small team of fellow students to help me program this game. (Because I'd like to see a non-creepy adult who's interested in Yugioh besides my mother...
It will essentially be a copy of the Kaiba.Corp.Virtual.Duel.System (KCVDS), but with actually functional cards and effects!

I can't do this alone.
