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



Hope you're having a good day! Or night, if you're in Europe like me.

Remember how I often mention my novel that I've written for the first custom set in my huge table? That's set on my main custom plane, which is called Vukanat. Vuksa Kratich (also known as just "Vuk") is one in the group of protagonists in that novel, and a very important character in my own Multiverse. His brother, maybe an even more important character and also a planeswalker, is named Kimatt, obviously with the same surname: Kimatt Kratich (also known as just "Kim"), and the main protagonist of that first novel. There is a deep bond between them, one that goes way beyond simple brotherhood. This is the starting plot point of the sequel to that story (one of the story spotlights in the sequel set), already planned in detail but I still have to actually write it: Kim one day suddenly disappears with no apparent reason. Vuk essentially has an anxiety attack as his brother doesn't come back home for the night, and decides to find him at all costs, no matter how long it will take or where his search will lead him. It will take him the whole story to get his brother back, and telling the why and how of Kim's sudden disappearance is the main plot of that story. I might have already mentioned Kim and/or Vuk by name in other submissions in various contests, now I can't remember. But if you've already seen those names, that's who they are.

The former Tribal card type is now Kindred, not "typal". "Typal" is an informal word you use to refer to themes or effects that care about creature types. You should have use "Kindred", not "typal".
Scaled Sleuth 2U
Creature — Viashino Detective (U)
Disguise—R, Discard a card. (You may cast this card face down for 3 as a 2/2 creature with ward 2. Turn it face up any time for its disguise cost.)
When Scaled Sleuth enters the battlefield or is turned face up, draw a card.

@OneAndOnly I love vehicles and Bloomburrow so I'm in!
@Rithaniel Three colors caring about each of the two color pairs is actually a really neat design space that I'm shocked wasn't explored before.
