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



See yesterday's thread and the discussion thread for netn10's probation.

Wonderful day today! I've had a lot of fun playing MH3, honestly more than both MKM and OTJ. You all should know who is my favorite planeswalker in real Magic canon bt now: Ajani. And who did I open in those six packs? Ajani himself! His DFC to be precise, in regular frame but foil. I honestly would have preferred not foil, but I'll definitely take it anyway! I also opened the RW Theros Titan (I'm forgetting its name now) and Detective's Phoenix, with several good commons and uncommons in RW, so I just had to built Boros, and deck construction was probably one of the easier and faster ones I've ever done. In the time alloted for building one deck, I built two. I also built a secondary Golgari deck to use in case I wanted to switch from one to another in between games, call it transformative sideboard if you want. Or at least, that was the intention. I've never done it. I had too much fun with the Boros Ajani deck that I never did the switch, not even a single time. I had a good enough mana curve for an aggro deck, with the maximum between MV 2 and 3. It was just a regular aggro deck, yet I went to additional turns in both round 1 and round 2 of the tournament, after round 2 my record was 0-0-2. I lost round 3, can't remember to which deck now, then I won round 4. That was a pretty easy win, my opponent has a very slow three-color deck that essentially did nothing until the late game, so I had no problems going under that and winning that round 2-0. In round 5 (the last one), I played against the worst enemy of any aggro player: an almost purely life gain deck, in Abzan colors. No way I could win that one. He kept using green and white bestow creatures as Aura playing essentially a pseudo-Bogles strategy, and obviously the first one he always played was one that grants lifelink, with several life gain on top of that. I told you, no way I could win that one. Given that I want both my LGS and Wizards making this kind of sets (I'm essentially the exact target of Modern Horizons sets), I also bought a box all by myself. I'll let you all know what I find inside it. I think I'll do the same for Bloomburrow. No way I'll do that for Duskmourn. Anyway, another wonderful day playing my favorite game with what will very probably become one of my favorite sets of all time. Most of all, another kick in the *** to my monsters! Take this, anxiety and most of all depression! Take all of this! And, to quote Linkin Park: Lift me up! Let me go! (from "The Catalyst")

Ponder the Decision U
Sorcery (U)
Look at the top card of your library. Put that card into your hand or on the bottom. If you put that card on the bottom, repeat this process once. Then if no cards have been put into your hand this way, draw 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.”
