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.
Notes of the Day
And today I'm late. I'm sorry, but I literally came back home less than an hour ago. I expected today to be exhausting and well... it was. But it was also a good day, and multiple things have advanced. The war isn't over, but today's battle has been good, I admit that. And for a person like me, that's pretty big to say.
Today you're going to meet Ratka, the intelligence expert of the group.
Ratka is a young human woman who, as a child, was interested in reading books no one else of her age would ever read, like books about conspiracy theories, spies, real investigations and such. She also had a diffident character back then, it was hard to become her friend as she took a very long time to trust you. That only worsened with her growing up, and what was just a simple but strange interest as a child turned into paranoia and obsession as an adult. For example, she has a very hard time forming stable romantic relationships because she never really trusts her boyfriend, and in the end they get tired of her lack of trust and dump her. That's happened several times to her in her life. She's currently single, which is rather obvious given that cycle of knowledge, distrust, and dumping that I've just talked about, and that she's actually fully aware of, but she just can't help it. But she also has a positive side: she has a very deep sense of curiosity and desire of knowledge, she has brought her love of reading from childhood into adulthood, and she has a very strong will to always look for the truth, knowing that it often hides behind how things appear at first glance. In that, she's not that far from Ezrim, but she also has a dark side that makes her core blue but secondary black rather than white.
In the group, she manages intelligence and she commands a subgroup of spies, people that she knows very well and that have hardly gained her trust. She has a very bad relationship with Derk, which you met yesterday, and who manages the rest of the army they're commanding as their official tactician. She deeply distrust Derk, even worse than she does with other people, not considering him worthy of the job he's been given. Derk, on his part, totally returns those feelings towards her. Neither he likes her. He sees her as too obsessed and paranoid for her job. In the end, they have to collaborate to manage the whole group and their army, but they almost hate each other. The results are often not the best obviously, and them agreeing on the next move is practically impossible.

Today say hi to Derk! Don't worry, he's a nice guy. Just don't mention his brain to him and everything will be fine...
Derkin's Plan
Sorcery (U)
Look at the top card of your library, then you may choose a card in your graveyard. If you do, exchange those cards. (The card stays on top of your library if you can't or don't choose a card in your graveyard to exchange it with.)
"Look, I'm a professional tactician. Planning ahead is my job, but feelings can't be planned unfortunately. You can plan everything outside of you, but nothing inside. I wish you could."

Beauty in Destruction
Sorcery (Rare)
Destroy each artifact and nonbasic land. For each permanent destroyed this way, its controller creates a Treasure token.
