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.)
Notes of the Day
Guest host today. Indighost had some troubles on his end and asked me via pm to post the thread for today. Hopefully he will be back tomorrow. Last day of voting for November. First day of submissions for December.
Tropical Paradise
Land - Forest Island (R)
Tropical Paradise enters the battlefield tapped.
Forests you control are Islands in addition to their other types.
Islands you control are Forests in addition to their other types.
Liliana's Dirge3B
Enchantment (R)
Whenever a player discards a card put a verse counter on Liliana's Dirge, then target opponent loses life equal to the number of verse counters on Liliana's Dirge. The witch's screeching was so grating it made Nissa nauseous.
Votes: Indighost, acheron_xl (I have not counted, but about 90% of my votes this month went to you)
Book of Law1WWU
Enchantment (R)
When Book of Law enters the battlefield or you draw a card except the first one you draw in each of your draw steps, name a card.
Cards named with Book of Law cannot be played.
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature can't attack or block, has hexproof and indestructible, and activated abilities it has cost 2 less to activate, but no less than 1
Ormos Historian
Creature — Human Advisor (U)
Defender, prowess
: Scry X, where X is Ormos Historian's power. "If we continue to allow the Brotherhood to control our history, we have given up control of our future."
0/2
Fevered Pitch(2/G)(2/G)R
Sorcery (C)
Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap that creature. It gets +1/+1 until end of turn for each green mana spent to cast Fevered Pitch, and gains haste until turn.

Coiling Savant -- GU
Creature -- Snake Elf Wizard (U)
When Coiling Savant enters the battlefield, you may draw a card.
When Coiling Savant dies, you may search your library for a basic land card and put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle your library.
2/2
I'm back! I'll still have time constraints until this coming Friday, but I don't want to miss days right at the beginning of a new month!
Votes: EpiCycle1, Flatline (Is that card already in our set? I remember a similar card but I think there is something different...)
Mention: Groovelord (I like both the idea and the execution quite a lot, but I like the other cards just a little bit more)
This is what the correct version of the sample card in this month's MCC judge signup thread is meant to be.
Feral Attack1G
Sorcery (U)
Choose one —
• Target creature you control gains deathtouch and indestructible until end of turn.
• Target creature you control fights target creature you don’t control.
Entwine B(Choose both if you pay the entwine cost.)

When Flaming Exemplar dies, if it's power was 5 or higher, it deals 2 damage to target creature or player.
4/2

Put a -1/-1 counter on each creature, then proliferate. Until end of turn, whenever a creature dies, proliferate. Though the Mirrans shed much blood, sweat, and tears in their struggle, all the Phyrexians needed was a single drop of oil.
Thought I'd throw my hat back in the ring after a two month absence.
Gust Cloak1
Artifact - Equipment (C)
Whenever equipped creature becomes blocked, you may untap it and remove it from combat.
Equip 1 "They're best used for probing the enemies defenses. But I have to admit, riding the wind is pretty fun." - Captain Daagh

Remove five escalation counters from Mutually Assured Destruction and sacrifice it: Destroy all creatures.
The one true hope for peace.
