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



Please take note of this if you haven't already:

Next host is @bravelion83, whose thread posting timing I am unsure about, but will be either around this time or several hours later and will only affect December 3rd and January 2nd. I'd also like to welcome back some past DCC participants who are rejoining the contest for the first time in a while.
I also like very much to see several returning players and I welcome back all of them!

The thread posting time will stay the same this month too, which is right about the time of this post. Consider the default to be 6 am for me (CEST), which is midnight Eastern and 9 pm of the previous day Pacific. If I checked time zones correctly, it should also be 2 pm in Japan and 1 to 4 pm in Australia depending on where you live in the country. I should be able to host every day this month, including Christmas day and New Year's Day. Should I have any problems with that, but I don't think so at the moment, I'll give advanced notice.
Also, I forgot to thank everybody for all the votes yesterday. Winning the day with a +9 is huge, so thank you all.

Hey everyone, thanks for voting for my cards throughout November. I had fun, and am glad you liked what I put out.

Also, I really was bouncing around to different ideas throughout November. I even made a phantom card at one point. It was fun.

Choice of Failures
Sorcery U
Destroy target creature or planeswalker unless its controller sacrifices an artifact, enchantment, or land.
, Discard Choice of Failures: Counter target instant or sorcery spell unless its controller pays .
"Choosing between bad options is never any fun."

Containment Protocol 1WW
Enchantment (U)
When Containment Protocol enters the battlefield or integrates, exile target nonland permanent until Containment Protocol or the integrated permanent leaves the battlefield.
Integrate 2WW (2WW, Exile this from your graveyard: Target creature you control gains this card's abilities. Integrate as a sorcery)

OneAndOnly - Phasing only works on permanents and not spells, I've just checked in the CR specifically because of your card. Of course, you could always change the CR, that happens every set, but currently it's not supported. I like the idea though, and if I were them I'd probably try to find a way to support it in the rules. I also appreciate a lot that you put a rarity in your submission, you know how much I care about that because we've already talked about it. No need to do it again now.

marioguy3 - I like the design a lot, but there are two templating/formatting mistakes and that was the tiebreaker against the two cards I voted for. A creature's power is written using numerals and not number words (it should be "...if that creature's power is 1..."), and a period is missing at the end of the activated mana ability. That's all. I'm sorry.
Scrap Selection 3UB
Sorcery (R)
Rewind 2R (You may cast this spell for its rewind cost. If you do, all targets must be the same and you perform the listed actions in reverse order while resolving this spell. This is not a modal spell.)
• Target player draws two cards.
• Target player discards two cards.
"So, what should I do first? Check which pieces are still working, or dispose of those that merely look broken?"
