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.

• 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.)

So, we've seen that there are at least two infinite cardinalities that exist. The cardinality of the natural numbers is one and the cardinality of the real numbers is the other. But do there exist others or is this it? If there are others, then how many are there?

The answer is that there are infinitely many infinite cardinalities. But this wouldn't be obvious at a glance. Like, it's difficult to wrap your head around these things. How would you try and count all the different sizes that infinite sets can have? It was already a chore to show that two cardinalities had to be different from each other. Would you have to do that with every single new cardinality that comes along? How would you ever be able to decide that there are infinitely many cardinalities?

Well, you can handle this question by tackling a different question. Instead of trying to think about everything all at once, you just approach the question of "with a given set of some infinite cardinality, can I construct a set that has a strictly greater cardinality?" Once you have that, you can just take the new set you made, and make a third set that has even greater cardinality. So on and so on.

But how do you construct such a set? Well, you need a little bit of machinery that we don't have yet. That would be the idea of the "power set." In short terms, it is the set of all subsets of a set, but I'll talk a bit more about it next time.
