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



Last day of voting October. First day of voting for November. The race has really tightened up over the last week with an amazing run from slimytrout! void_nothing will be taking over again tomorrow on the 3rd. Good luck to everyone next month. I'll see you again in December.
Edit: I still have one more day. It's like I'm new or something. I've been a bit sloppier than normal in my hosting this month. Sorry about that.

I'll be honest: not a lot of cards I like particularly up for voting today, my votes have essentially been decided by process of elimination. Some days I have a hard time choosing my votes because there are way more than two cards I like. Other days, like today, is the contrary.

Wait a minute! Krenko is now a shapeshifter like Lazav and can disguise as Chandra? Or something else that I've thought but I'm not sure whether it would be appropriate for me to mention here (see Alesha)? What's going on here?

Congrats to Flatline for another victory! Wait, I forgot: today is the last day of voting for October. Winner is announced tomorrow.

Crushing Might
Instant U
Choose target spell. Then create a 4/4 green Beast creature token unless that spell's controller exiles it.
It's difficult to focus on casting a spell when there's seven tons of angry beast coming down on top of you.

Create a 4/4 white Angel creature token with flying and hexproof that's tapped and attacking. Exile that token at end of combat.
Flashback 5WU (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)

Oh yeah, I didn't mean a long break. I literally just meant that I was getting a headache from all the time staring at a screen and coming up with cards, and I needed to go do something else for a bit (in this case, drink and play board games).
