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. 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 me instead and I'll explain it.
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.)
Votes:
Flatline (for the elegance and simplicity of the card, even thought I think it should cost more)
GG Crono
Bird of Brain3(U/B)
Creature — Zombie Bird (C)
Flying
Recycle 2(2, Exile this card from your graveyard: Draw a card.) It’s a bird of prey that preys on minds.
2/2
Votes: Wearth (shouldn't be common just based on complexity, but the card itself is really elegant), GG Crono
(Some really nice cards today, had trouble paring it down to two)
Cogwork Emissary4
Artifact Creature - Construct (R)
Reveal Cogwork Emissary as you draft it. The player to your right chooses a color, you choose another color, then the player to your left chooses a third color.
Cogwork Emissary has protection from each of the chosen colors.
2 / 3
Coalskin Creeper1BB
Creature - Elemental Rogue (U)
Intimidate
Whenever Coalskin Creeper deals combat damage to a player, you may put a -1/-1 counter on target creature he or she controls. The Coalskin clan are considered abominable even by their fellow Cinders, spreading soot and decay with every step they take.
2/1
Summoning Interception2U
Instant (R)
Kicker 2U
Counter target permanent spell. If that spell is countered this way and Summoning Interception was kicked, put that card onto the battlefield under your control instead of into its owner's graveyard.
Infuriated Youth
Creature - Human Warrior (U) Natural - If you spent only mana produced by basic lands to cast Infuriated Youth, it gains haste until end of turn.
3/2
Although the Eyodwa elders preached patience and peace, many of the younger males of the tribe felt that a more aggressive approach was needed.
Otherworldly Blaze3RR
Sorcery
~ deals X damage to target creature or player, where X is the number of red mana symbols in mana costs of cards in your graveyard. Within the crackle of the flames one can here the whispers of the lost.
Gold Mining2R
Sorcery (U)
Destroy target land. It's controller puts three colorless artifact token named Gold onto the battlefield. It has "Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool."
Morvo Eight-Tongues2RR
Planeswalker - Morvo{M}
Creatures with suction cup counters of them attack Morvo Eight-Tongues on
their controller's turn if able.
-1: Put a suction cup counter on target creature.
-2: Target land becomes an island.
0: Untap all creatures with suction cup counters on them. Gain control of them
until end of turn and they have haste until end of turn.
/8
Blizzard Orb3 Artifact (R)
You may skip your untap step. If you do, draw a card. The temporal disturbance tore open the skies of some planes, scorched the grounds of others. Interestingly enough, for the tiny plane of Oskrall, all it caused was an occasional snowfall.
Underworld Mint2BB
Enchantment (R)
Sacrifice a creature: Put a colorless artifact token named Gold onto the battlefield. It has “Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.” The one true currency.

Enchanted creature has "Whenever a creature attacks you or a planeswalker you control and isn't blocked, it deals 1 damage to this creature." When the reports of Gargan's death reached town, the people knew he wasn't killed by the fires that burnt his body nor the blackened match found clutched in his hand. No, what killed that old coward was much worse: shame.

Look at the top five cards of your library. Put two of them into your hand, then put two cards from your hand on top of your library, then shuffle your library. It all makes perfect sense until the moment of your awakening.
