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.)
Note of the Day
Time to go be bored out of my mind at work thanks to the National Handegg Championship.
(Okay, so I'll be able to watch part of the Super Bowl as well, but it's gonna be dead at work today.)
I'm aware of the fact that bloodthirst should come before haste on my card from yesterday. I copied it from my list late last night and never thought to change it.
Fight the Good Fight
Instant (C)
Target creature you control gains lifelink until end of turn. It fights target creature you don't control.
Serum-Brood Saurian3GU
Creature — Lizard Mutant [C]
Trample
Refine (Any time you could mulligan, you may exile this card from your hand, then draw a card. You may do this in addition to taking mulligans.)
[5/3]
Flashforge RW
Instant (U)
Put a colorless Equipment artifact token named Sword onto the battlefield. It has "Equipped creature gets +1/+1" and Equip 1. You may attach it to target creature.
You may activate equip abilities any you could cast an instant until end of turn.
Wings of Faith4UU
Enchantment (R)
Creatures you control get +X/+X and have flying, where X is your devotion to blue. (Each U in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to blue.) “You could fly, if you just believed it.”
Reveal the top six cards of your library. Put all cards named Arcane Excavation and another card of your choice from among them in your hand, and the rest into your graveyard.
"If we pool our resources, Atlantis is but a step away!"
Manifest Destiny (Rare) WUBRG
Enchantment
You may cast manifested artifacts, enchantments, instants, planeswalkers, and sorcery cards you control. (When you do, they leave the battlefield as creatures, become revealed, and are put on the stack as spells of their types.)
Carrion Swarm2GG
Instant
Until end of turn whenever a creature dies put two 1/1 green insect creature tokens onto the battlefield. Nature wastes little time cleaning up the dead.
Dark Metamorphosis3BB
Enchantment (R)
When Dark Metamorphosis enters the battlefield, gain 3 life.
Whenever you gain life, put that many 1/1 black Bat creature tokens with flying onto the battlefield.
At the beginning of your end step, if you did not gain life this turn, lose 5 life.
Corpse Plague3BB
Enchantment (R) Morbid - At the beginning of each end step, if a creature died that turn, put a -1/-1 counter on each creature you don’t control. They started to bury men before death to ensure the disease would never leave ground.
Clawing Consumption4BB
Sorcery (C)
Destroy target creature. You gain life equal to its toughness. Willam had lived his whole life hungry, but it wasn't his hunger that killed him.
Kalpechi Dragonbreaker2UB
Creature - Zombie (R)
As long as you control two or more Forests, Kalpechi Dragonbreaker has reach.
As long as there are two or more Forest cards in your graveyard, Kalpechi Dragonbreaker has Dragon bane. (If a creature with bane toward a specific creature type would deal damage to a creature of that type, it deals twice that much damage instead.) One life is only enough to scratch the surface of the lives of dragons - and so the greatest dragon hunters are undead instead, building on their tactics as ages pass.
3/3
Votes: Advent, Groovelord
HM: Indighost - I would have voted for this if it read "whenever a nontoken creature dies.."
I'm all for pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable in MTG, but unless I'm missing something, refine would fundamentally change the game of Magic. If 14 cards were printed with this ability, it would be possible to make a deck of 53 refine cards and the 7 cards you need to win 1st turn, every time. Basically, it would negate the "Decks must have a minimum of 60 cards" rule.
Blazing Beebles
Creature - Beeble (U)
Haste
Whenever Blazing Beebles attacks, it deals 1 damage to each player.
2/1
Blazing Beebles are identical to other Beebles in every way, except they're on fire.

Warp Intent1U
Instant (R)
Change the text of target spell or permanent by replacing all instances of one permanent type with another until end of turn. "I thought you said you knew how to use that spell?"
- Artex Galla
Conclave AssemblyXGW
Sorcery (M)
Put an X/X green Elemental creature token onto the battlefield and put X 1/1 white Elemental creature tokens onto the battlefield.
This month, I'll post random cards I've designed, not meant for other contests. First, there will be a cycle of five new legendary creatures with grandeur, then the theme will be "cards that could have been in FRF".
Venerated Archangel4WWW
Legendary Creature — Angel (M)
Flying, first strike, vigilance Grandeur — Discard another card named Venerated Archangel: Put five 1/1 white Human creature tokens onto the battlefield.
