I want to make a deck

Playing dnd 3.5 and want to make a yu gi oh themed summoner. Is there a macro I can use to make a deck? Example: a number pool that goes 1-40 and removes numbers as they are generated (drawn)?
Make a literal deck, there is a deck builder system in roll20.

One trick I've seen in the past, which may not work anymore or may be tedious, but that you can try: Upload the images for your deck to some online image hosting site Find a url shortener that lets you pick your own short names Build a list of short url for all the images that are named like this (where NUM &nbsp;is a number starting at 1, and incrementing for each image) <a href="http://some-shortener-url.com/someText" rel="nofollow">http://some-shortener-url.com/someText</a> NUM &nbsp; When you want to choose one at random, make output like (where SIZE &nbsp;is the number of images you have): [x](<a href="http://some-shortener-url.com/someText[[1d" rel="nofollow">http://some-shortener-url.com/someText[[1d</a> SIZE ]]#.png) That should give you a random image in chat of your card, if all goes well.

Its called the Rollable table system and Decks in roll20, but you said you can't ask the Dm to help you so thats the best i can do for you.&nbsp; If you can't coordinate with your DM, then your only option are things ON your character sheet.
