Welcome to the New Challenge Everyday card contest. Think of it like a combination between the Daily Card Contest and "winner is judge" games.
The current challenge is:
Phyrexian mana
Note: Phyrexian mana smilies can be done by putting a P next to the letter of mana you want inside of { } brackets within /mana tags. Got it?
(W/P)(U/P)(B/P)(R/P)(G/P)
Entry Rules
Anyone can enter at any time.
To enter:
1. Post a card that fits the current challenge.
2. Include a challenge in your post. If you win the day, your challenge will be the next day's challenge.

3. Vote.

The previous challenge was Additional or alternate casting costs. Here are the entries for that challenge:
Thought Maw xG
Creature - Horror
As an additonal cost to cast Thought Maw, put the top X times two cards of your library into your graveyard.
Thought Maw enters the battlefield with X times two +1/+1 counters.
0/0
Goblin Rear-Guard1RR
Creature - Goblin (U)
Wakecast (You may cast Goblin Rear-Guard without paying its mana cost if you cast a red spell with converted mana cost 3 or more this turn.) They have an easier time bravely stepping up when someone else does it first.
2/3
Primal Rift2RGW
Sorcery (R)
You may discard a Mountain card, a Forest card, and a Plains card rather than pay Primal Rift's mana cost.
Exile target noncreature permanent. Target creature you control gets +X/+0 and gains trample until end of turn and you gain X life, where X is that permanent's converted mana cost. "Many cleansing rituals are much improved if one can do some heavy lifting." - Master Fadu
Root Nibbler4GG
Creature - Badger (U)
You may return two Forests you control to their owner's hand rather than pay Root Nibbler's mana cost.
Root Nibbler gets +1/+1 for each Forest you control.
3/3
IIW: A card with a keyword that grants another card the same keyword.
Suture:SymPW:
Instant (U)
As an additional cost to cast Suture, sacrifice a creature.
Put X +1/+1 counters on target creature, where X is the sacrificed creature's toughness. "There is no greater expression of love than the desire to be united with another in heart, soul, and flesh. With wire and needle, we bring love and peace." - Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite
Specimen Broker2(P/U)
Artifact Creature — Advisor (R) 2(P/U),T: Exchange control of target creature you control and target creature you don’t control. 1(P/U): Put a -1/-1 counter on each creature you own but don’t control. Gitaxian research cells will do whatever it takes to earn their keep. This often includes sabotage.
1/3
This is my first post in a billion years, so my challenge is: Dinosaur times.
Leonin Starstriker3(P/W)(P/W)
Creature-Cat Soldier
First strike, vigilance
When Leonin Starstriker enters the battlefield if you paid life to cast it, destroy target red or black permanent.
4/4
IIW: Alpha themed cards
Phy, Asphodel Trade Queen2(B/P)(B/P)(B/P)
Legendary Creature - Zombie {MR}
Undying
You may cast ~ from exile.
Whenever a nonland permanent enters the battlefield under your control, you may pay (B/P), if you do, each opponent loses X life, where X is your devotion to black. You gain life equal to the life lost this way.
2/6 "Death, Oblivion, Nyx, everything has a price."
Suggestion: Could you add the Cardnames to the player names in the polls rather than funny comments (starting next poll)? It would aid the voting process since you actually vote for cards rather than players and might hence not take note of which player your favorite design belongs to.

Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."
