Mystery Box Deadlines

You can ask for a mystery box in as many Mystery Box Discussions as you'd like simultaneously. 

This discussion is here for a limited time, to help you sample all the different modes that take place in the Mystery Box Challenges. So feel free to ask for a deadline Mystery Box anytime. This discussion consists of a variety of modes all dealing with timed deadlines. Each deadline, the top 3 cards are chosen.

Here's how it works!
  1. Ask for a mystery box... no need to tag me, I'll see it!
  2. Your box will have a random mystery challenge and a 50/50 shot at a prize.
  3. Submit a newly created card for your challenge. (You must submit before asking for another box in the Mystery Box Deadlines discussion.)
  4. Then, you may ask for another mystery box any time!
  5. You can get as many mystery boxes within any given deadline as your time allows.
  6. The deadline will arrive randomly. When it does, I will judge and choose the top 3 winners.
  7. Favorites given to winners based on how many cardsmiths participated that deadline.

The above information is all you need to get going in this discussion. What follows below is relevant information for anyone interested in the grand scheme of Mystery Boxes.

Prizes

Most prizes are straight forward, and some might seem unfair while others seem strategic. What goes around comes around! So, all prizes earned in this mystery box discussion are useable in any other mystery box discussion as well as this discussion. Secret weapons may be played strategically to upset your opponents.
