Welcome to the DCC!
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.
How To Play
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
AH, THE FAMILIAR MISERY OF A BORKED SLEEP SCHEDULE.
Let me know if I made any mistakes, but these scores are closer to accurate.
Flatline, bravelion83
Sandcast4WU
Sorcery (R)
Exile target nonland permanent. Then if you exile a card this way, you may cast a card that shares a type with it without paying its mana cost. Sand uncovers as much as it ebbs away.
Guard Duty1W
Enchantment - Aura (U)
Enchant Creature you Control
When ~ enters the battlefield, exile target creature until ~ leaves the battlefield.
Enchanted creature can't attack.
Hidden Kunai1
Artifact — Equipment {C}
Equip 2
Whenever one or more creatures you control becomes blocked, you may put Hidden Kunai onto the battlefield from your hand and attach it to a blocked creature you control.
Equipped creature gets +1/+1. "A sharp knife in a good hiding spot will save your life more often than any amount of martial arts training." -Tetsuko Umezawa
@bravelion83: I agree, I love simple hybrid designs, and my inspiration was Nature's Chant - I just love how clean it is.
Sudden Betrayal
Instant (Common)
Target creature deals damage equal to its power to its controller. The Rakdos use comedy to heal the broken hearts and to break the whole system.
@bravelion83: I agree, I love simple hybrid designs, and my inspiration was Nature's Chant - I just love how clean it is.
Agreed. And seeing you reposted that card, I think I already have one of my votes for tomorrow... For today, instead:
Votes: Indighost, void_nothing (not sure about the wording but I like the idea very much)
Mix-and-match week continues:
Explore the Unknown1G
Sorcery (U)
Target creature you control explores. (Reveal the top card of your library. Put that card into your hand if it’s a land. Otherwise, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature, then put the card back or put it into your graveyard.)
Retrace (You may cast this card from your graveyard by discarding a land card in addition to paying its other costs.) “I don’t use maps. They’re useless. The best way to know a new place is to know its inhabitants. They will guide you to discover more new places, and then the cycle repeats.”
—Otlosh, Merfolk scout
I have recalculated the scores looking at each day's thread and putting them together in an Excel table. See discussion thread.
Votes: bravelion83, netn10 (I think it might need to cost 1 more though.)
Supply Runner1G
Creature — Elf Scout (C)
When Supply Runner enters the battlefield, draw a card if you control a creature with a +1/+1 counter on it.
Reinforce 1—1G(1G, Discard this card: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature.)
1/1
Emissary of the Forgotten2B
Creature - Zombie Cleric (R)
When ~ enters the battlefield create a 2/2 black zombie creature token. 2B,t: Target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn for each zombie you control.
2/3
(Hidden Kunai needs rewording tho, a triggered ability doesn't work from a hidden zone this way)
Anthem of All2WW
Enchantment (R)
Whenever a creature you control attacks, if its power is less than the number of attacking creatures you control, put a number of +1/+1 counters on that creature equal to the difference.
Votes: netn10, void_nothing
Honorable mention for Indighost. I like the card very much but I think it needs to cost more mana (I'd cost it at 3B very probably), as is it gives you 4 power and 5 toughness over two bodies for three mana. That's a bit too much.
Izzet Research(U/R)
Sorcery (U)
Scry 1.
Splice onto instant 1U(As you cast an instant spell, you may reveal this card from your hand and pay its splice onto instant cost. If you do, add this card’s effects to that spell.)
Splice onto sorcery 1R(As you cast a sorcery spell, you may reveal this card from your hand and pay its splice onto sorcery cost. If you do, add this card’s effects to that spell.) Every answer is a question.
Scores are still wrong. My table updated with yesterday's votes is attached. Edit: I gave one point from yesterday to void_nothing instead of IcariiFA. Now it's fixed. See the discussion thread for more.

Inflame the Wound1R
Sorcery (U)
Inflame the Wound deals 2 damage to each creature dealt damage this turn. Then Inflame the Wound deals 1 damage to each other creature. The first strike is never the worst.
Slow but steady comes in 12th. (That's the place I'm aiming for.)
There are so many good ones today. Voidnothing and Flintlock (top down! top down!) for me. Rudyard would have had it if it'd cost more and been a sorcery that triggers off noncombat damage too.
Glittering Mist3U
Instant {U}
Return target creature to its owner's hand, then manifest a card from your hand. (Put it on the battlefield face down as a 2/2 creature. Turn it face up any time for its mana cost if it's a creature card.) In the twilight before dawn, the thick haze over the Glasspool would capture the sun's oblique rays. It was like standing inside a sparkling curtain, about to be drawn up to start a new day.
Rakdos Roulette 1
Sorcery (M)
Each player may choose to get a Coward Emblem with, "Creatures you control cannot block", each player who does not flips two coins. Each player whose coin comes up Tails once loses half their life rounded up, each player whose coin comes up Tails both times loses the game.
________________________________________ "Lets Play a game"
Votes: Flintlock, Rudyard (I like how it works as a weird blink on your own creatures too. I think it might need to be an enchantment for memory reasons though.)
Unified Refusal1U
Instant (U)
Counter target spell unless its controller pays 1 for each creature type among creatures you control.
