Welcome to the DCC!
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.



How To Play



How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote, you receive [1] point for the month. If your card ends up with the most votes for that day, you will receive [2] additional points for the month. In the event of a tie, each person who tied receives [1] additional point. At the end of each month, the person with the most points on the scoreboard wins that month, then the scoreboard is cleared for the next month. You can participate in as many or as few days as you want in any month.



Rules



  • Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into the thread as long as your card didn't get disqualified - see the next point for more details. If you post more than one card in a DCC thread, only the first card you post will be taken.
  • When you vote, you need to make exactly two votes for two different people. Vote for the cards that are listed in the first post, not other cards being posted in the thread. If you notice that you've only voted for one person, include your second vote in a post, even if you're not submitting a card.
  • If you want to change your vote for any reason, post that change in the day's thread (you can include it with your card if you want). Changed votes in the discussion thread will be ignored.
  • Voting for only one person, for three or more people, or for yourself will earn you an asterisk by your name in the monthly leaderboard. So will failing to vote if you've posted a card. (We're not going to do anything about people who don't vote or post cards; that would be kind of silly.) This indicates that you're on probation for the next 21 days. If you're on probation and you make another improper vote, your card will be disqualified. Repeated disqualification is grounds for warnings and/or infractions for not following the game rules, so please don't do it.
  • Voting for everything in the poll will be grounds for a lifetime ban from the DCC. Don't do it. It just wastes the thread creators' time.
  • If you wish to post a render, please use the hyperlink option when posting your card and make the card name the image link. Renders are usually large enough to clog up the list, so submit a text-formed card and (optionally) a link in the name to the render.
  • This thread is just for your card submission. Take your questions/comments to our discussion thread. If it's a question, comment, or complaint about probation, PM void_nothing and/or the month's DCC organizer.
  • When posting make sure that:
    • You have included all of the previous day's entries.
    • You update the leaderboard with the previous day's scores.
(An easy way to post the new thread is to hit the multiquote button on every post in the previous day's thread, then click Post Reply. Select everything in this post, copy it, and then paste it into the first post for a new thread. You'll have to clean up a few small things, like quote tags around the opening post and the previous day's cards.)

Unearth 1r (1r: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

I also dislike cold seasons a lot. To me, winter is the worst season in the year. I always say: put me in late spring/early summer all year, and I'll be fine! As with most things in life, this is just personal preference. None of us are right and none of us are wrong. We're just different.

Honorable mention for Flatline.

Strike of Knowledge 3U
Sorcery (U)
Affinity for blue permanents (This spell costs 1 less to cast for each blue permanent you control.)
Scry 1, then draw a card.
Adamant — If at least three blue mana was spent to cast this spell, instead scry 2, then draw two cards.

Running a bit low on ideas, so I'm gonna throw in a series of cards from the custom set I'm working on:

Highway Robbery B
Sorcery (C)
Target player discards a card. If you control a Road, instead that player reveals their hand, you choose a nonland card from it, and that player discards that card.
Even the straightest road is a little crooked.
For the curious
Show
Hide
Here's the rest of the cycle:

Street Smarts 3U
Instant (C)
Draw two cards. If you control a Road, instead Scry 2, then draw two cards.
Even on a dry road, there's always someone who's slick.

Course Correction 2W
Instant (C)
Exile target attacking creature. Return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step unless you control a Road.
Even if the road curves to the left, sometimes it's right.

Road Rage 4R
Sorcery (C)
Road Rage deals 5 damage to target creature. If you control a Road, Road Rage deals 3 damage to that creature's controller.
Even on the iciest roads, sometimes things get heated.

Beaten Track 1G
Sorcery (C)
Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control if you control a Road. Then it fights target creature you don't control.
There can be a dust-up on even the cleanest road.
