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



Today's Norse mythology fact: Nothing in the Norse corpus indicates the Vikings believed in cyclical time. It's not as though Ragnarök is something that periodically occurs only for the universe to come back afterwards exactly as it was. By all accounts it was believed in as a future event that would be final.

Alright, back to serious times. (Too bad "The Third and Final UN-card!" didn't get much love. I thought it was clever.)

Splitting Timelines
Instant U
Separate the cards in your hand into two piles and reveal one of them. An opponent chooses one of those piles. Discard cards from the chosen pile, then draw that many cards.

Re: netn10 - Oh, yeah, that's part of the game. You're not always gonna get votes. Though, "The Third and Final UN-card!" made me laugh.
Re: RattingRots - I felt the same way yesterday when I was trying to understand this perfect hashing function. Computer science is not my strong area.

Living Matter
Enchantment - Aura U
Enchant permanent
You can't choose a creature as this spell's target as you cast it.
Enchanted permanent is a green and blue 3/5 Elemental creature with hexproof in addition to its other colors and types.
"The Treespeakers don't see far enough ahead. They seek to bring life out of the land alone, as that is where it originally came from, as if it were special in this way. We Allspeakers seek to create life in any source that it will come from."

"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.”

Fore!
Sorcery (Uncommon)
Split second (As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast other spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.)
Destroy target artifact an opponent controls.
The summer is hot. The sum of sun and hot equals summer.

Mortalform Shedder 1BB
Creature - Lamia (R)
First strike, haste
2BB: Monstrosity 2.
As long as Mortalform Shedder is monstrous, it's an enchantment in addition to its other types and you pay life equal to the mana value of enchantment spells you cast instead of their mana costs. (You can't pay their mana costs and you pay all other costs.)
3/2
