Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
Would a new DFC/ transformation symbol count if the function is new. I have an idea similar to a non-DFC mechanic but the frame is thinking is lazy but also not enough room for text unless as a DFC. Just putting a new symbol in an existing frame doesn't qualify -- for instance, the Eldrazi Werewolv...

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
@slimytrout I have a question about round 3. You may provide some visual description of your card's layout,. Would a visual mockup, like we did with the watermarks in round 1, be allowed here, too? Yes, you can always make a visual mockup of your card -- that is allowed under the MCC rules even wit...

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
Ah, I see -- yes, that is a misunderstanding on my part. I believe that will increase your score slightly, although there might be a slight counterbalancing deduction in elegance given the aforementioned misunderstanding. I will edit my judgement, but given my time constraints while traveling and th...

Re: May MCC Round 2 - Symbology
Design (1/3) Appeal - Spike likes the prospect of card advantage and/or unblockability, but is wary of giving their opponent resources. Timmy likes the unblockability and card draw as well but isn't so big on the fact that they have to give up the former if they want to maximize the latter. Johnny ...

I apologize for the delay, but I have been traveling and turned out not to have wifi at my first destination. I will do my best to get my judgements in tomorrow but can't make any promises.

Re: May MCC Round 2 - Symbology
24 hours remain in this round, @marioguy3 @void_nothing @kwanyeegor-ii @Komandon. I would love to get the round closed on time if possible -- I have some travel plans that would make it a lot easier for me to get judgements in if I can start on Friday.

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
Seems like Ink-Treader and I both have at least draft versions of our judgements ready and posted. The judging period doesn't officially end for another day and a half, so if you have concerns/questions about your score now is the time to ask them, since once the period ends the scores will be offic...

Re: May MCC Round 1 - Mark of the Beast
Design (1/3) Appeal - Johnny has no interest whatsoever. Timmy and Spike don't mind a Mesa Unicorn but don't love the amount of work necessary to get it. (3/3) Elegance - No issues with comprehensibility. Development (3/3) Viability - Usually green doesn't get lifelink, but black certainly does so ...

Bumping this to remind potential contestants that there are about 36 hours left to enter! Also in case folks are being put off by the work required to design a watermark, just a note that this is entirely optional and the only thing you actually have to include with your entry is the name of the wat...

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
@slimytrout: are Universes Beyond custom cards with related watermarks acceptable? Hmm, I'd be interested in other folks' opinions on this, but my inclination is that it depends on your definition of "acceptable." I would not personally disqualify someone for making a Universes Beyond car...

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
@Rithaniel don't forget to put the name of your watermark in your May Round 1 submission -- it seems fairly obvious from the flavor text but it does need to be explicitly named.

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
The optional parts are definitely not part of the criteria, you can think of them as you would a card render -- if you feel like a description or illustration really ties your submission together and/or you just want to include it you can do so, but I don't plan on adding or deducting any points as ...

Re: The MCC Discussion Thread
@void_nothing, just to clarify for Round 4, my assumption is that you mean only the meaning of "draft" from the two Conspiracy sets, and not the meaning of "draft" from the various Alchemy cards -- is that accurate?

I think no one has claimed the May MCC yet? I had a fun idea so unless I'm wrong I'm going to sign up for that.
