How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote, 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.

• Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into 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 tothe 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 void_nothing and/or the month's DCC organizer.
• When posting make sure that:
  • You have included all of the previous day's entries.
  • 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.)

Alright, today is the last day to submit cards for May. Tomorrow will be the last day to vote on cards for May. Then the next day, we'll have a winner announced.

Can't believe I missed a day, but here we are.

Rithaniel, Sagharri
Pyramid Scheme has a loophole; if you untap the investor creature before the initial ability resolves you can get two payments out of them. If that was NOT your intent the cost should be "tap an untapped creature you control and remove an investor counter from it:".

Dislocation 1U
Instant (R)
Exile target creature or planeswalker. It becomes plotted. (Its owner may cast it as a sorcery on a later turn without paying its mana cost.)
"You can't solve that way all your proble..."

Leonin Gliteratti 2W
Creature — Cat Socialite (U)
Lifelink
Invite — Whenever another creature enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on Leonin Gliteratti.
Entourage 4W — An opponent controls more creatures than you. (You may cast this card from your entourage for its entourage cost. It costs 2 less to cast if its requirement is met.)
Ambrose's Leonin consider a night out partying to be 'perrfect'.
2/2

Entourage Rules

Show

Hide

1.Before shuffling your deck to become your library, you may reveal up to three cards from outside the game to be your entourage. Those cards remain revealed outside the game as the game begins.
2.If more than one player wishes to reveal an entourage, the starting player does so first, and players proceed in turn order. Once a player has chosen not to reveal an entourage that player can't change their mind.
3.A keyword ability that allows a player to choose up to three creature cards from outside of the game as their entourage.
4.Once you cast a card from your entourage it remains in the game until the game ends or an effect returns it to your entourage. Doing so follows all the normal rules for casting a creature spell, so a player can normally do so only during their main phase if they have priority and the stack is empty. Casting an entourage this way brings it into the game for good, after which it can be destroyed, exiled, returned to the hand, shuffled into the library, etc.
