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
So maybe the NBA playoffs this year might be worth watching.
Leyline of Apathy2UB
Enchantment (R)
If Leyline of Apathy is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield.
Permanents entering or leaving the battlefield don't cause abilities to trigger.
For each permanent target opponent controls, they may pay X life. If they don't, they sacrifice that permanent. X is 1 for artifacts and enchantments, 2 for lands, 3 for creatures and 4 for planeswalkers. (For a permanent with multiple types, its controller chooses for which type they pay.)

Target creature gets +1/+0 and gains first strike until end of turn.
// Spades2BG
Instant (U)
Target player sacrifices a creature. That player reveals cards from the top of his or her library until he or she reveals a land card, then puts those cards into his or her graveyard.
Fuse (You may cast one or both halves of this card from your hand.)
Shimmering Flicker1RW
Instant (R)

Enchantment (U)

Misfortune MagnetR
Enchantment - Aura (U)

Spatial DivergenceWWU
Enchantment - Aura (R)
Enchant nonland permanent.
Enchanted permanent can't attack or block, its activated abilities can't be activated, and its abilities can't be triggered. "Just where I like them: out of phase, within sight."

Whenever an opponent lose life, you may sacrifice Blood Crystal. If you do, search your library for a Vampire creature card and put that card onto the battlefield, then shuffle your library.

Tarovian NudibranchUU
Creature - Slug (U)
Tarovian Nudibranch's power and toughness are each equal to the number of Islands you control.
Tarovian Nudibranch can't attack unless defending player controls a number of Islands greater than or equal to its power. It doesn't bother with stealing the stings of jellyfish, or secreting poisons. It just grows. And grows. And grows.
