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
Like sand through the hour glass, so are the daily card contests of our lives.
Insatiable Shambler
Creature — Zombie Warrior (C)
Dominate (This creature can't be blocked by creatures with less power.)
Sacrifice a creature: Insatiable Shambler gets +2/+2 until end of turn.
1/2
Clone Substitution1UW
Enchantment - Aura (R)
Flash
Enchant creature you own and control
As Clone Substitution enters the battlefield, put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of its target, then return its target to your hand and attach Clone Substitution to the token.
Whenever enchanted creature dies, you may put a creature card with the same name as enchanted creature from your hand onto the battlefield.
Glyph of Drakescale2UU
Enchantment (C)
When Glyph of Drakescale enters the battlefield, put a 2/2 blue Drake token with flying onto the battlefield. 2UU, sacrifice Glyph of Drakescale: Put a 2/2 blue Drake token with flying onto the battlefield.
Commanding Mouth of Alkrany3RR
Legendary Creature - Human Barbarian (R)
As long as any three or more attacking creatures you control have only successive numbers as their base powers, those creatures have double strike, and can only be blocked by creatures with equal base power.
3/3
Unresting Corpse1BB
Creature — Zombie (R)
Undying (When this creature dies, if it had no +1/+1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield under its owner’s control with a +1/+1 counter on it.) T, Remove a +1/+1 counter from Unresting Corpse: Target player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.
2/2
TriceDefied, Guesswork. Trice's would probably break Phyrexian Dreadnought and some other things again, but honestly Dreadnought was never going to do anything fair.
Kheru DeviantXBB
Creature - Naga Mutant (U)
Delve
Deathtouch
When Kheru Deviant enters the battlefield, put the top X cards of your library into your graveyard. The Sultai waste not even madness

Morning Beast3RG
Creature — Beast (R)
Trample, haste
Miracle RG(You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it’s the first card you drew this turn.) Its claws rise upon you just like the sun at dawn, but they’re not equally pleasant.

This card is inspired by how utterly ANNOYING the bugs in the summer get here.
Oh, and votes...and comments
Vote 1: Guesswork - I can see this could be used as an offensive tool, since you can attach it to an opponents creature.
Vote 2: ThriceDefied - GREAT card, I'm noticing a pattern here. you are REALLY making great cards. The one in this post is unique as well. Great jorb!
Pounding Pigsuina1GG
Creature - Boar Beast (U)
Trample
Whenever Pounding Pigsuina would deal combat damage to a player, you may instead put that many +1/+1 counters on it. It needs a terribly long starting run, but when its up to speed it will sure put a dent in something.
