The Team Kontest #1 (A Kramp Kontest!)
Hello! Time for the first ever Kramp team Kontest!
Here is what will happen. You will sign up for the contest. On the 4th, you will be randomly assigned a teammate (or 2, depending on how many sign up. 2 will be the ideal number, however). I will start a conversation for your team. You will create a set of cards embodying the theme for the week.
What is this theme, you may ask? This week, you will be creating a new world. You will be tasked to make 22 cards for the world. Here is the basic template for what I want to see, although you can do any combination of cards as long as the core 5 colors are balanced.
3 Cards for each color (Common, Uncommon, Rare)
5 Multicolor (Preferably a cycle, although it does NOT have to be)
2 Colorless (Artifacts, Nonbasic Lands, Other (Think Ugin, Karn and the Eldrazi)
2 Mechanics (This is variable, if you make one large mechanic that is ok as well, At least one mechanic should be new)
Remember, you do NOT need to follow this basic setup exactly. For example, if you want to make a world all about artifacts, then feel free to cut the multicolor cards and make only artifacts, or if you want to use a mechanic that needs alot of space such as my Fusion mechanic, then feel free to only use one mechanic (As long as it's new).
The contest ends on Sunday, Janurary 22nd at 11:59 PM and will be judged the following day.
Prizes:
1st Place: 1 like on 5 cards of your choice for each team member.
2nd Place: 1 like on 3 cards of your choice for each team member
3rd Place: 1 like on the card of your choice for each team member.

EDIT: @Trippleboggy3 has basically said that this is the new Cardsmith Compilation Competition. I will be tagging everyone who has competed in a previous CCC Round in a seperate message to see if any of them would like to join. Thanks again, Tripple!

Although I would like you to note, I will make sure this contest is judged on time and that all the teams are working together. Thats the reason I'm not playing.
You get those good grades in school @kltmtg29.
Me.
May I join?
Edit: Also I'm premium if that matters!
@Anyone else who wants to join needs to do so today.
Also may I use 3 - 4 mechanics as I would like to do color specifics? If not, then I could just not refer to them by keywords!
Also hope you find more people as I can't wait to see everyone's ideas!

If any of you wish to join this Kontest, please leave a comment on this discussion. If you don't, feel free to ignore this request. If you wish to join but this kontest has already started, send me a PM and I will tag you in the conversation for the next round (if I do one).
The main mechanic has similarities to Hearthstone's discover mechanic as it effectively makes your deck more modular. Whereas the other mechanics allow for increased choices and support underdogs.
I hope we gather some great art aficionados and some wonderful designers so that we can make this contest real spicy! :P Mmm.
It's worth mentioning that all the cardsmiths we have so far are actually pretty great, and would be welcome additions to any team.
Now we need at least one other sign up... But that's Okay! Maybe one of the 38(!) people I tagged would be interested in joining. Worst comes to worst I will play in my own contest (To my own dismay) and have one of the Cardsmith gods like @Corwinnn, @Faiths_Guide, or @Tomigon judge (If they want to)
(I would like to sign up)
@TrippleBoggey3 If I ever decide I would like to play in one of these you can be part of a panel of judges, although I will judge all of the others.
@VinylVantasy You can join indeed!
@dashdo101 You can join indeed!
How long until we get our teams as it's nearing a week left until the deadline?
Are you considering an extension depending on when the challenge starts?
Anyways, I'm hyped to start!
