This weekly contest is broken up into two phases--

1. Monday-Thursday is the "throwing down the gauntlet" phase:

During this phase, you can enter the contest by challenging up to three other people to a duel. To challenge another person, you can use the following format: "I challenge @[username] to a duel!"

Once someone has been challenged, they can enter the contest before 11:59p on Thursday PST by accepting the challenge. To accept a challenge, reply with a design prompt that both duelists will follow in the next phase.

Each participant can accept multiple duels, but can only be involved in one duel per person per week.

2. Thursday-Sunday is the "challenge accepted" phase:

For each challenge that was accepted, the duelists must each post a single card that fulfills the prompt. Designs are due before 11:59p PST on Sunday.

If one duelist posts a design for a duel and the other does not, the one who did automatically wins that duel.

The contest thread for each week shall be posted with a public poll to decide winning duelists of the previous week. The poll runs three days.

Ties count as 1 win for each duelist.

@Ink-Treader Roll is (finally from my point of view) 11. This is one of the previously two prompts left from the original list that I wrote more than a year ago when this game began. Now only one is left, and I'll tell you which number it is: it's #15. That's now the only one left. But that's not ours now, that's #11, which is the following.

Design a card with a red and/or green color identity (no other colors) that connives and is set on a Magic IP plane. (So no Spider-man or Marvel Superheroes cards despite connive being actually used in both sets. This prompt was in my original list and has been written way before we knew anything about either sets except that they existed.)
