The card title is meant to be hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia, but that is too long, so it cut off the last few letters. Yes, it's an actual fear. Yes, it's the fear of long words. No, I do not have this fear, I just thought it might be fun to make a card based off of it.
You cant really see the casting cost very well, but it's meant to be 1BB
"Okay."
"I said prepare to eat my Fireball, little blue mage!"
"I heard you."
"So?"
"So what?"
"Why aren't you scared?"
"Why should I be scared?"
...
"Big red mage, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing. Nothing at all."
"So why haven't you Fireballed me yet?"
"You want me to, little blue mage?"
"Up to you. It's your funeral."
...
"I'm still waiting."
"What do you have up your sleeve, little blue mage? I know you have something."
"Really?"
"Umm...yeah. Wait, are you bluffing?"
"Want to find out?"
...
"Why am I so scared of you, little blue mage? You haven't even done anything so far!"
"You think this is scary? Try throwing your Fireball at me."
"Lol, no way. I know you're gonna do something about it."
"Am I?"
"Arrggh, I hate you little blue mages."
"You know what you're gonna hate more? Even more than chucking a fireball at me?"
"What?"
"I really don't have anything up my sleeve. I'm totally defenseless against your magics."
"So why have you been bluffing so long if you knew it would get nowhere?"
"I was just waiting for my Vizzerdrix to sneak up behind you."
Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia – fear of the number 666
Paraskavedekatriaphobia – fear of Friday
Spasmenagaliaphobia – fear of broken glass
Tickcapucapitiphobia – fear of having a tick head stuck in your body.
Siderodromophobia – fear of traveling by train
Finally, comes the 36 letter whopper – Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia – which is ironically a fear of long words."
The text blocking is weird but I will fix it soon. (There should be a way to center text in height, evenly spacing blocks.)
I've decided that I'll be removing the follows from the prizes, since we'd like to take a break from cardsmithing after this contest closes.
Edit: Made a minor change to the subscription notice.
Edit: Changed prize distribution. For information, see main post. (Removed honorable mentions since they tend to take longer to distribute!)
Yeah, I forgot to mention that I'm making sure all subscriptions I owe are given before next month. That way nobody goes without them while I take a break from cardsmithing.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. But I need to go offline in the next month for personal reasons and this was the most professional way of doing so.
I'll still be following all winning contestants, in case I'm back early from our cardsmithing break.
Actually, its not just the longest phobia name, its actually the single longest word in the american English dictionary
Another random fears that haven't been mentioned yet:
Phobophobia - the fear of getting a phobia
And some fears that I'm not quite sure the name of, but I know they exist:
There is a fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you
There is a fear of getting peanut butter stuck on the roof of your mouth
There is a fear of the colour yellow (which green lantern kind of had in the original comics which made him so powerless against sinestro)
Thought this belonged in here too hehe.
Because who doesn't fear the darkness?
Every creature has a darker side...
Cool, Thanks
Fear of ovens/stoves.
