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



Alright, here we go. August 31st. The last day to submit cards for the month. On a couple days, we'll have a winner for the month!

HM: netn10 - it should say "...a Noble Role token attached...", the word "token" is missing. It's not the first time I noticed that in the last days, today I'm pointing it out because it has been the tiebreaker and it's the whole reason why this is just an HM and not a vote.
EDIT: Also, I just checked and the Role token is called "Royal", not "Noble". I guess that one is the one you meant.

Ambidextrous Ainok 2G
Creature — Dog Warrior (R)
Vigilance
Ambidextrous Ainok must be blocked if able.
1R: Ambidextrous Ainok gets +1/+0 until end of turn. Activate only if Ambidextrous Ainok is attacking.
1U: Target creature blocking Ambidextrous Ainok gets -1/-0 until end of turn.

Role tokens are too new... I'll read them more carefully!

Taunting Step-Mother 1B
Creature - Human Noble (Common)
When Taunting Step-Mother enters the battlefield, create a Royal Role token attached to it.
Whenever an opponent pays mana for an effect you control, they must also pay that amount of life.

Gaea's Grace 3G
Sorcery (R)
Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield, then shuffle. Whenever you tap a land that shares a land type with that land this turn, add one mana of any color that land could produce.

Inspo from the recent CF challenge for Frog Wizards.

Omnibian Mage 3UU
Creature - Frog Wizard (U)
Ward 3
At the beginning of each end step, if one or more +1/+1 counters were put on a creature you control this turn, exile up to one target creature. That creature's controller creates a 3/3 green Frog Lizard creature token.

Psst, check the second page of Custom Card Contests & Games! Because of the daily contests, a lot of games fall down to there.
