What about Green Sun's Zenith? Hmmm, just joking. To be honest, that's the only card I have present, since I'm a legacy guy (oh, and the Troll, but both are too expensive... :()
Maybe this reality is actually an alternate reality of a reality in which New Phyrexia was the joke expansion and Mirrodin Pure was the obvious expansion, except our reality is the Time Shifted reality which is opposite of that other reality which is that actual reality.
have you ever thought of doing uncommon sets and common sets as 2nd and 3rd place prizes?
i know you probly dont wanna be sending a ton of stuff out all the time
but alot of us without access to japanese stuff would love some cool playable commons and uncommons like squad hawks, bolts, signal pests, etc etc
just a thought
and you inspire me to wanna do a contest on here to.. so im brainstorming some good ideas
That's a pretty good idea. However that would make it hard to get distinct topic for the haiku. Like with bonehoard as number 1 prize I could do an uncommon living weapon as 2 and a common as third but for the Phoenix contest or the ooze contest it would be harder to find in set cards of the same color and flavor. But i am up for suggestions if any one knows a good was to do it!
Hello everyone! It is time to announce this contests winners! Sorry I am a little late getting around to this one but here are the results just the same.
pale, brittle weapons
taking new purpose from the
desecrated dead
I like the simplicity and real haiku feel of this one. Haiku are trying to explain something simple in simple terms but with go arrangement and flow. I think this on describes Bonehoard really well and does so simply and beautifully.
The quiet of death
Fallen of war surround me
A distant... rattle?
I like the simplicity in this one as well, plus it would be just freaky to have survived a huge battle and thing all the phyrexians are gone and then you here something small moving but getting bigger and closer.
The Playset of japanese bonehoards will go to mishæmanoil but I have an English language Bonehoard foil that I ordered by mistake and I will award that to Two_Eyes
I am trying to come up with something green for the next contest still. I will check prices on the ones that were suggested and see what i can pull off.
Winners! Please private message me your addresses!

Thanks for running this contest. Sucks to lose but still had fun coming up with something. I think it's really cool that you're running this kind of contest when you're not getting much in return (other than poetry). I think it would be kind of neat for you to give out 2nd and 3rd place prices (although I doubt I'd get them) but that's really just icing on the cake.

I haven't done a green card yet I don't think. Anything from MBS or New Phyrexia that you guys think I should do?

Oh! Machine of War
With her heart that lusts for blood
And flesh turned to steel
Artefice of destruction
Wrought chaos and confusion
Under the five suns
An endless army of one
Shadows day in death
Herald of apocalypse
Fashioned from the dead
Tyrrany awakes
From within the metal world
Emptied of its souls
5-7-5, 7-7, 5-7-5, 7-7, 5-7-5
Is this correctly Renga?

The bones assemble
Ready to transform as one
Nothing left but deah
From out of stillness,
horrific activity-
service eternal.

they could be completely unrelated
this months contest is about (card name)
1st place winner gets x4 card name
2nd gets x1 or 4 mystery cards
3rd gets x1 or 4 mystery cards
something like that

My second favorite was this one:

I collect Knowledge Pools!
EDIT: Also, some of the green cards spoiled from New Phyrexia seem like good candidates.

Thanks again for running this neat little contest ThisSatori. I look forward to competing and reading in the next ones to come.
Beast within! That is a pretty good idea!! Is it a rare though?

No, it's uncommon, but a foil japanese one will likely be worth as much as a rare given all the hype this card is getting.
