Currently our codebase has both refences to "Characters" and "Cards", while they're the same thing, it may get confusing in the future.

Would it be needed to Unify it in docs so it's more standarized?

I second this. A couple of other inconsistencies I've noticed:

  • Roll vs Pull
  • Distinction between users, usernames and fedi handles

I'd like to propose the following:

Term Definition
KEMOVERSE A game where PLAYERS can ROLL for CARDs that they can then TRADE or use in a GAME
PLAYER A fedi user who plays KEMOVERSE
CARD A depiction of a fictional character that PLAYERS can ROLL for
STAT One of three values assigned to CARDs that determine their use in a GAME
RARITY How common a card is when PULLing. Measured as one to five stars, with more stars being less common
PULL An instance of a CARD owned by a PLAYER
ROLL The act of obtaining one or more random CARDs
TRADE The act of two PLAYERs exchanging one or more PULLs with each other
GAME A fun activity within KEMOVERSE that involves one or more PLAYERs competing with their CARDs

It could be worth setting up a glossary in a wiki somewhere

Added the info to the wiki, I'll be updating it sporadically.

All new code should preferibly reference the wiki. Closing as completed since updating the wiki should be another different issue.
