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.)



Notes of the Day



Just another ordinary day.

I designed this card a few days ago, intentionally and stubbornly trying again to go outside the box... Let's see how spectacularly I fail yet another time...

Code-Secured Coinsafe 3UU
Artifact (R)
As Code-Secured Coinsafe enters the battlefield, secretly choose a number between 1 and 7.
At the beginning of your draw step, draw an additional card.
At the beginning of your upkeep, an opponent guesses a number between 1 and 7, then you reveal the last chosen number. If they're the same number, exile Code-Secured Coinsafe. Otherwise, secretly choose a number between 1 and 7 that hasn't been chosen yet.

Housewarming 1W
Sorcery (C)
Create two 1/1 colorless Guest creature tokens and a Libation token. (It's an artifact with "2, T, Sacrifice this artifact: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature. It becomes euphoric. Activate only as a sorcery.)
It's a breach of social contract not to bring a housewarming gift to a party.

Today I'm introducing you to another planeswalker from my big table. Alfred (Abzan colors) is a loxodon archaeologist, but that's where the similarities with Quint end. Alfred suffers from social anxiety. He lives as a hermit, wondering from one archeological site to another, completely alone. He explores the ruins, picturing the real buildings and structures they once were in his mind, and wanting to live in his own mental reconstructions. Dealing with the real world and with other people is the last thing he wants. If he ever meets you, consider yourself lucky if you even just manage to talk to him. But he's actually a good person in his heart, so maybe, just maybe, he could help you, but he will always pose one condition whatever you ask of him: that whatever he has to do, he does it alone. He was born in a farm, where his parents taught him everything about farming life. His social anxiety hadn't yet manifested as a child, but he actually never enjoyed life in the farm. He couldn't accept to spend his whole life there. So as soon as he became adult he left the farm and went in the big city in search of fortune. He lived a few years in the city, and there his social anxiety started to show up. It made life in the city increasingly difficult for him, until one day, almost desperate, he made the only thing he could: he left the city and started his life as a hermit archaeologist. As long as he's alone, he's fine now, and he enjoys this lifestyle a lot, but don't ask him to stay around people for a long time. He just can't.

Archaeological Discovery 2WBG
Sorcery (R)
Return up to one target artifact card, up to one target creature card, up to one target enchantment card, and up to one target land card from your graveyard to your hand.
Exile Archaeological Discovery.
"Farm life was boring. City life was distressing. Archaeological hermitage is exciting!"

"Why are numbers beautiful? It's like asking why is Beethoven's Ninth Symphony beautiful. If you don't see why, someone can't tell you. I know numbers are beautiful. If they aren't beautiful, nothing is."
― Paul Erdős

“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.”
― Stephen Jay Gould
