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.)

I'm very happy with the high participation, but with this many cards, I just have to resort to details as the tiebreaker.

marioguy3 - The infamous "its" vs. "it's" mistake strikes again.

netn10 - It should be "becomes crewed", not "is crewed".

folding_music - I believe this card should be white instead of blue. Most often you will return your own artifacts and enchantments (possibly Equipment and Auras), and that's definitely white. Also, "if you paid the kicker cost" should be "if this spell was kicked".

Riria - It's probably necessary for clarity, but I really don't like how that "any two creatures" reads to me. It feels like that "any" shouldn't be there. I mean, it's absolutely correct in English, it just feels strange to me on a Magic card. Would "if two or more creatures you control share a card type" work?

emily - Here sunburst just doesn't do what I think you want it to do. Check rule 702.44:
CR (BRO) wrote:702.44a Sunburst is a static ability that functions as an object is entering the battlefield. "Sunburst" means "If this object is entering the battlefield as a creature, ignoring any type-changing effects that would affect it, it enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each color of mana spent to cast it. Otherwise, it enters the battlefield with a charge counter on it for each color of mana spent to cast it."
This is entering as a noncreature artifact, so it would get charge counters and not +1/+1 counters. You need to either assume a change to the CR or use converge instead and spell it out like this:
Converge — CARDNAME enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each color of mana spent to cast it.
I'd probably have just used converge instead of sunburst. This is one of the very few cases where there is a meaningful difference.
Mindful Cleansing 2WU
Sorcery (R)
Choose a card type, then exile all cards from all graveyards. Each player draws cards equal to the number of cards they own of the chosen type exiled this way. (Artifact, battle, creature, enchantment, instant, land, planeswalker, sorcery, and tribal are card types.)
