Now taunt seems like you can choose to have a creature not be blocked at all, or only the creature blocking it that's not going to kill it, or the one that gives you that most trample damage; instead of how it was before...
@Tomigon Well, it is a difference, if you choose the order of blocking creatures and your opponent can say, wich ones block, or if you can choose, wich creatures can block and wich ones don׳t and your opponent can choose the strongest creatures among them to be the first ones to block. Now it also could be possible to say, 'I choose no creatue to block my creature', wich makes your creature practically unblockable. If you only choose the order of blockers, that doesn't happen.
@Mila If you can allow a creature to block, I think you can also choose not to allow. But I might be wrong. I'm not good at English, so I really don't know.
Mechanic-wise, there are few issues in old wording.
One thing is; (let's say there are no problems in old wording here.)Old version means nothing. Tutlaschk said "It doesn't alter the rules, because the rules are already like that ability wants them to be." http://forums.mtgcardsmith.com/discussion/comment/55371/#Comment_55371 It is always attacking player who choose how to assign combat damage to blocking creatures.
And also, old wording doesn't say when you choose, and it doesn't say "this combat." So you can choose even when it isn't in combat step. And once you choose, that decision lasts indefinitely, so it causes memory issue.
Sorry, I fixed taunt again. Because I didn't realize that my old wording can be an evasion ability. My bad X(
New version: Taunt (Whenever this creature attacks, you may have any number of target creatures defending player controls block it if able.) It's kind a super provoke ability.
*But if you have already made a card that only works with the old taunt abilities, you don't need to fix your card. I'll read that card as though nothing was changed. Please let me know only when you update your card with this new version.
I have edited Blackmist Incubus, because it fit this new set that I'm making and I really liked the card. It gained the Snow supertype (though on the card it appears as a subtype) and the mana cost of its triggered ability changed from {b} to {s}. I really hope that doesn't change its evaluation.
Thanks @Tomigon! I tried to post one on this thread, but it just made the link invisible? I think I'll just stick to posting links. Anyway, thanks for the contest!
"Fixed" (maybe) kax, the face in the mountain. It now enters tapped (I thought summoning sickness would do this but it doesn't cause its not a creature when it enters. Now no longer has trample and can't be a creature until at least turn six barring lay-lines (cause tapped land). I hope I have done you good, kim-jong-martin-san. Also I left out the reminder text for land creatures cause no space.

Thanks!
Yes you can. I'll ignore old reminder text.
A forced attack ability to choose which creatures get to block the Jester, and Taunt to choose the order.
Is it different? Old version is:
Taunt (You choose the order in which creatures are allowed to block this creature.)
Now it also could be possible to say, 'I choose no creatue to block my creature', wich makes your creature practically unblockable. If you only choose the order of blockers, that doesn't happen.
If you can allow a creature to block, I think you can also choose not to allow. But I might be wrong. I'm not good at English, so I really don't know.

I think this one is better than my last version:
Taunt (Whenever this creature attacks, you may have any number of target creatures defending player controls block it if able.)
What do you think?
Thanks for your feedback!

Ok. Thanks for the info! It doesn't change its evaluation.
Godly:
Went a little heavy on the Phyrexia theme on this one.
