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



I forgot to change the "Note of the Day" yesterday. It's often my least favorite part of the task. Unlike our old friend Indighost, I have nothing much to SHOUT AT PEOPLE about everyday. :) BTW, for those that don;'t know, this whole operation is just cut and paste. Nothin' fancy goin' on here.

Designing cards based on scientific concepts is a very good way to catch my attention, even if I'm not the biggest fan of the mechanics. I would like this card more if it only cared about you instead of "each player", obviously adjusting the costs. I feel like this will never go off, your opponents will have creatures in their deck 99% of the time, and you have to find some way to remove them from their library. Johnny is very excited by this. It's obvious and probably known by most at this point that I'm a Timmy/Spike with almost zero Johnny in me. But still enjoy my vote despite that.

Yeah, the only issue with making it just care about your library is that a player could very easily design a deck with no creatures, which is designed to stave off the opponent until it is able to drop the monolith and achieve an automatic win. Though, yes, as it exists currently, it would be quite difficult to successfully win with this card, but I think that part of what would make it fun. You'd have to build around it more heavily than some other 'win condition' cards. Thanks for the feedback, by the way. :]

So many interesting cards today, hard to chose.

Sagharri, your card could probably be a common without issue.

Wizyard, your card is very interesting, but oh so easy to break. I don't think that effect in the two colors that are masters of producing token creatures is a good idea, even if the card is dual colored. Just Ant Queen alone breaks it.

Sun Charm W
Instant (Common)
Choose one —
• Gain 2 life.
• Untap target Cat or Hound card.
• Target creature you control gets +1/+1 until end of turn.

I have said in my judgment of Flatline's card in Round 1 of the October MCC that I had an idea... Here it is! Yes, black is the only color with no existing embalm cards.

Persistent Eater 2BB
Creature — Crocodile (U)
When Persistent Eater enters the battlefield, put two -1/-1 counters on target creature.
Embalm 5B (5B, Exile this card from your graveyard: Create a token that's a copy of it, except it's a white Zombie Crocodile with no mana cost. Embalm only as a sorcery.)

Sagharri - I don't think this is meaningfully different from Arc Lightning outside of a specific environment.
marioguy3 - I think this is somewhat different from Springbloom Dryad but the main issue is that this one is considerably overpowered. Springbloom probably couldn't have been. Even without any synergy, Harrow-Weeny almost lets you get an additional land for free.
FoilSquared - I really want something like this to exist, but I think it is slightly too good.
