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



Ok, Rithaniel with his submission convinced me to present to you the whole group of seven from my first story on Vukanat. It's the first time I do so publicly. For one week starting today, you will get to meet them all through instant or sorcery spells in their colors designed to highlight their personality. Flavor text will always be them speaking in first person. I don't really care about how these cards will do in terms of points, that's not what's important to me. They are important to me. A lot. Please greet them well.

Today will be the turn of the goblin (former?) prankster of the group, Drago. I would have to tell you a lot of lore to explain that "former?", just know that his character evolves a lot throughout the story, and will keep evolving in future. He was definitely a prankster in school as a child, even though he always points outs that he was "a prankster, not a bully! Very different things! I just wanted to have fun, not to hurt anybody!" Calling him a "bully" is probably the worst offense you could do to him, both back then and now. Now as an adult it's much more complicated. Something is moving inside him. Even he doesn't understand what's happening to himself, but, as he likes to say, he just "lives through it". That's enough to him. By the end of the first story, he already starts being innerly tormented, and that inner torment will only grow in the future. This is just the beginning.

The rest will follow in the next days, with Vuk and Kim at the end as the main protagonists.

On the contrary of what I had said before, I believe I will be able to post tomorrow's thread, but it might go up a couple hours earlier than this one. Telling this to you so that you all know that in advance and act accordingly.

Look at the top two cards of each player's library. For each player, exile one of the cards face down. You may look at and play those cards, and you may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to cast them. Then each player draws a card.

"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.”
