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



I made brownies, today. They ended up quite good.

re:netn10's card- (of course part of the mirror theme between lorwyn and shadowmoor was some cards in the former cared about becoming tapped and some in the latter liked becoming untapped- i like how your card quietly evokes this. i sure did like those sets, despite mechanical messiness)

Lagaith, Knot Grower
Legendary Creature - Sphinx Druid M
Flying, hexproof
Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, if you control both a Plains and an Island, reveal the top card of your library and put it into your hand. If a noncreature card is revealed this way, you gain 2 life.
Whenever a creature you control dies, if you control both a Swamp and a Forest, target opponent discards a card. If a creature card is discarded this way, that player loses 2 life.
At the beginning of each upkeep, if you have more cards in hand than each opponent, distribute three +1/+1 counter among creatures you control.

Off-topic note about Thrill Seeker
Show
Hide
I'm a huge ESC fan (Eurovision Song Contest), and the 2023 edition is going on right now. The finals are tonight. Since a few years ago, they have decided to let Australia participate despite not being neither geographically nor politically a part of Europe just because of the huge fanbase that the contest has there. Out of all the 37 participating songs this year, the Australian one is my absolute favorite, the one I wish it will win but never will, closely followed by the Moldavian one (which has already heavily influenced one of the planes in my ongoing plan all by itself, it's in Romanian if you're wondering and yes, I know what it says because I've read the translation) and the Norwegian one (which also has a little influence on that same plane but way less than the Moldavian one).

The Austrialian song, my favorite in the contest, is called "Promise" and is by a band called Voyager which I had never heard before. That song has already helped me immensely in a couple very difficult personal moments in the last couple months (the songs for the ESC are revealed way before the actual contest). I have it actually playing in my headphones right now, and the card that's up for voting today, Thrill Seeker, has been designed as a top-down card from the flavor text I've put on it, which is actually a quote of that song's lyrics, you can hear it in the first verse right towards the very beginning of the song. I will absolutely vote for it tonight in the finals, I owe it to them. And I also felt I owed them a custom card here, and that's what Thrill Seeker is meant to be.
Ruby Ignition 2RRR
Enchantment — Aura (R)
Hexproof
Enchant creature you control
As Ruby Ignition enters the battlefield, remove all counters from enchanted creature, then put X loyalty counters on it, where X is its mana value.
Enchanted creature becomes a red planeswalker with "+1: This planeswalker deals 1 damage to any target", "-1: Add R. Until end of turn, you don't lose this mana as steps and phases end", and "-8: Each player discards their hand, then draws that many cards plus one."
