How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote in the day's poll, 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 a poll 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. 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.
Anyone can post the new thread for the day. When you post it, make sure that:
You have a poll in the thread;
You include everyone's cards (excluding cards that have been disqualified);
The poll is marked as public and multiple choice with a one-day time limit; and
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.)
Note of the Day
And now comes the great search for a house (preferably - I would rather not be in an apartment again).
Alabaster Paladin2W
Creature - Human Knight (C)
First strike
You may cast Alabaster Paladin without paying its mana cost if you control a Plains and an opponent controls a Mountain or a Swamp.
2/2
Fate's RampageUR
Instant (M)
Choose target spell, then exile the top card of your library. If the exiled card's converted mana cost is equal to the spell's, counter that spell. Otherwise, Fate's Rampage deals damage equal to the exiled card's converted mana cost to a player or creature you haven't chosen this way and if you haven't chosen each player and each creature this way, repeat this process.
Train of Thought2UU
Sorcery (U)
Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal two cards that each share a type with target permanent, and put those cards into your hand. Put all other cards revealed this way on the bottom of your library in a random order. "Mogg, bog, dog... Atog! Aha, that's it!"
Enchant opponent
Change the text of nonmana activated abilities of permanents controlled by enchanted player by adding "Any player may activate this ability." to them.
Hoping tonight's spoilers don't make this look stupid...
Athreos, God of Passage2WB
Legendary Enchantment Creature - God (M)
Indestructible
As long as your devotion to white and black is less than seven, Athreos isn't a creature.
Whenever a creature an opponent controls dies, exile it. Gain 2 life.
Whenever a creature you control dies, you may pay 2 life. If you do, return it to your hand.
5/6
Dark Puppet1B
Artifact Creature - Construct (R)
If a spell or ability an opponent controls causes you to discard a card, you may reveal Dark Puppet from your hand. If you do, discard Dark Puppet instead.
1/1
Hell Has No Heroes
Enchantment - Aura (U)
Enchant creature
At the beginning of each end step, enchanted creature's controller sacrifices enchanted creature unless it was the target of a spell or ability this turn.
Treader of Lost Forests1GG
Creature - Centaur Spirit (C) G: Add GG to your mana pool. Activate this ability only once each turn.
Gasp - 1(If this card is in your graveyard, you may activate its activated abilities if you pay 1.) “It is said the time before the Age of Ascension was a time of unspoiled nature and myriad races.”
-The World Before Empires
2/2
Eldrazi Rebirth5B
Sorcery {U}
Put target colored creature card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. Put three 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature tokens onto the battlefield. They have “Sacrifice this creature: Add 1 to your mana pool.”
Votes: Doombringer, MDenham (tough choice this time)
Karvathian Whirlwind2UU
Instant (C)
Put target creature on top of its owner's library. Machina - If mana spent to cast Karvathian Whirlwind came from an artifact, that player then shuffles his or her library.
Uncanny Potential1B
Enchantment (U)
Whenever a Thrull creature you control dies, put a research counter on Uncanny Potential.
As long as there are three or more research counters on Uncanny Potential, Thrull creatures you control get +1/+1 and have undying. As the more intelligent thrulls saw their peers sacrificed, they began to understand source of their own life force.
Genopox4BB
Sorcery (R)
Choose a creature type. You may destroy all creatures of the chosen type. Otherwise, destroy all creatures not of the chosen type.
Elvish Spiritwaker1G

1/1
Desperation2UBR
Enchantment (R)
As long as you have exactly one card in your hand, you may cast spells from your hand without paying their mana cost. Never back a mage into a corner.
Silkscale the Wingless3GGG
Legendary Creature - Dragon (R)
Vigilance
Creatures you control have reach.
Creatures with flying opponents control can’t block creatures without flying you control. Envious of his own kind, he made his life’s mission to take vengeance on those who soar the skies which are now lost to him.
6/6
Desolate1B
Instant {C}
Put a waste counter on target permanent. (Permanents with waste counters get -1/-1 and can only produce colorless mana.)
