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



In today's NYT crossword, for the clue "Circus", I had _ _ _ TSHOW. The answer ended up being tent show, but that's not what first came to mind. :)

slimytrout ...Isn't Curse of Generosity just a less powerful, more mana restrictive version of Curse of Verbosity? Perhaps it would need to be outside of a Commander release?

When Compulsive Collector dies, put up to one card exiled by Compulsive Collector into your hand.

Hadn't been playing the DCC because I've mostly been out of ideas, but an idea I like finally came to me.

The next time you cast an instant or sorcery spell this turn, copy it.
Rebound (If this spell was cast from your hand, instead of putting it into your graveyard as it resolves, exile it and, at the beginning of your next upkeep, you may cast this card from exile without paying its mana cost.)

Gateways7, RattingRots

@Flatline, you're totally right - I always have trouble estimating the strength of multiplayer cards, cuz the one I designed seems like a perfectly acceptable rate to me and I honestly don't understand how Curse of Verbosity is balanced at all.

Curse of the Bloodline 2BB
Enchantment - Aura Curse Saga (R)
Enchant player
I, II, III - Enchanted player exiles a nontoken creature they control.
IV - Search enchanted player's library for a creature card that shares a creature type with a card exiled by Curse of the Bloodline and put it onto the battlefield under your control.

Veil of Spring g
Enchantment (U)
Whenever an opponent casts a blue or black spell, you may sacrifice Veil of Spring. If you do, choose one -
  • You and creatures you control gain hexproof until end of turn.
  • Creature spells you control can't be countered this turn.
When Veil of Spring leaves the battlefield, draw a card.
