You really just need to embrace the rage. I keep a small colony of hamsters next to my computer and every time I lose a match to mana screw I throw one against the wall.
I'm pretty sure this is a database error, and as such is going to require rianalnn to fix it. I've posted in the Technical Support forum about this, so hopefully it gets fixed today. (If it doesn't, well, everyone's going to just have to include their votes in their posts today.)
Worse still, I just noticed my card is not included in today's thread.
Feeling a do-over may be in order here
That's easy enough to fix, though. I'll fix that in a moment. (Every so often the multiquote buttons decide to ignore clicks; that's what leads to "hey, I'm in the poll but my card's not in the first post".)

Thanks. At least I caught it now and not after everyone already voted

I misclicked in today's poll. My vote was meant for Maokun's cute squirrel but accidentally ended up in Savia's box. Please change that when you count the score, and my apologies to everyone involved.

Thanks for the love for the squirrel everyone I read how forests depend on little mammals that hide their seeds underground for later consumption and eventually forget about them to spread out new trees and this card appeared fully formed right in front of me.
@Than: if you want to make sure MD will see your correction before posting the new thread, you should put it with your card submission. >_> *cough*
I'm calling it right now- worst rare in the set. Even good limited players will find better bombs at common and uncommon no sweat. Worst. Episode. Ever.
I really do predict this to be our worst rare in set award winner. I'd be happier opening a jar of eyeballs, so I think anything worse is highly unlikely. This card wont just have zero constructed potential, but not be significantly better than a mass of ghouls in a draft.
I noticed it anyway, but yeah, vote changes should go in the thread. I'll edit them out in the process of putting the thread together (well, normally I will; I didn't bother editing quotes today because everyone had to vote in their posts).

Yeah I do think that in a vacuum your card is better than mine (hence why I resent it :P).
Mine is an artifact so you can actually drop a second copy for free, which is very good: though it will be only around for one other turn, in the meantime your artifacts will cost 4 less and have 4 time counters instead 2.

Today's card (Variegation Field) is only an idea because last night involved entirely too much "I feel like screwing around with a Precursor Golem + Rite of Replication deck".
I want to do the math here. For fun.
Field, Golem, Rite (not kicked).
Golem ability activates, rites target all 3.
field ability activates, each rite hits all 3.
Each one is copied 3 times, including the original. (6 new tokens, 3 new "originals")
Copies of original create new tokens. (6 new tokens)
Now we have 4 "originals", and 15 tokens.
(For this, you need 2 forests, 2 islands, and 3 any lands; normally, without Field, you don't need the forests)
With kicked Rite instead, it's 30 + 15 copies, and the 15 produce 30 more; For 16 "originals", and 62 without abilities.
(You need 2 forests, 2 islands, and 5 any lands)
I don't want to KNOW what happens next time Rite is cast. Or what happens with Doubling Season in play.
Well, I was doing my math sort-of right. I just missed a step; forgetting (again) that copies of spells or multiple trigger-ings can AND WILL resolve individually.
Now I AM curious what the second time the Rite goes off looks like. And what happens with doubling season.
2nd gen, 8:48, unkicked
8:48 (56 (Edit: 8*(8+48)=8*56=448) copies)

...I should really just write an algorithm to do this.

I have no way of compiling it yet, but Algorithm in C++
#include <isostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int A, B, C, E, F, G;
bool D;
cout<<"Please insert the number of Precursor Golems.\n";
cin>> A;
cin.ignore();
cout<<"Please insert the number of other Golems.\n";
cin>>B;
cin.ignore();
cout<<"Please insert the number of other creatures.\n";
cin>>C;
cin.ignore();
cout<<"Is Doubling Season in play? (1=yes, 0=no)\n";
cin>>D;
cin.ignore();
cout<<"Was Rite of Passage kicked? (5=yes, 1=no)\n";
cin>>E;
cin.ignore();
F = A + B;
F= A * F;
if (D == 1)
E = E * 2;
E = E + 1;
while ( F > 0 ) {
G = A;
A = A * E;
B = B * E;
G = A - G;
G = G * 2;
B = B + G;
C = C * E;
F = F - 1;
cout<<"("<< A <<":"<< B <<")+"<< C <<"\n";
};
cout<<"The end result is "<< A <<" Precursor Golems, "<< B <<" Other Golems, and " << C <<" Other Creatures.\n";
cin.get();
}

Thanks for the compliment Good luck to all the competitors, and thanks for everyone's votes and interesting cards to vote for over the month.
My final card was designed because I imagined a buddy-cop movie with a strait-laced Azorius rules stickler being paired up with a bitter, loose cannon Boros veteran, and the idea amused me (:

Ashamed of posts from years ago.
If you kick Rite, it turns into 216 Precursors and 1512 other Golems instead.
