Tommia Set Challenge: Flavorful Cards
Please read everything before you enter!
"And in a fraction of a second, the world fractured before the broken fractiles of reality."
~Joseph Bigham, flavor text, Manic Shot
Like that? I hope you do, but that's not the point. The point is to create a card with awesome flavor text!!! Here's the rules:
- There are three categories for judging: Humor (Funny Flavor Text), Elegance (Like a poem, rhyming or not! My flavor text on Manic Shot is an example!), and Story (Description about the card's history). Also, I will judge the best card, but that's not the point of the contest!
- The card doesn't have to be serious or balanced, but it sure helps.
- Try to use the M15 frame. That's the one I'm using for my set, and I want to make sure the text will fit.
- You may not enter an uncard unless it's put into the humor category.
- When entering, choose which category or categories you are entering into. All cards except uncards will be judged for Best Card, so that is not a choice!
- You can enter cards that you entered into other contests if you wish to do so.
- Remember when making your card that the flavor text is being judged for the category/categories you entered, not the card itself. As for the Best Card, your card itself will be judged.
- This isn't mandatory, but please please please put a link to the contest in the comments section of your card. I've noticed that a lot of my contests haven't gotten any love.
- By entering, you agree to allow me to remake your card for my set, at my sole discretion, making any changes I see fit.
- Limit two entries per category. They can be all at once, or a certain number at a time.
- I can fix mistakes you make, but if you made a mistake so drastic you can't live it down, feel free to fix it. You may only resubmit each entry once.
- No anonymous entries.
There will be one main prize for each category!
Humor: 3 favorites, that card (or a card inspired by the text) will be made for Tommia, or if it's an uncard, JBYT_Unglued.
Elegance: 3 favorites, that card (or a card inspired by the text) will be made for Tommia.
Story: 3 favorites, that card (or a card inspired by the text) will be made for Tommia
Best Card: 5 favorites, that card will be made for Tommia and featured on "Random Card".
For anyone who doesn't "win", all honorable mentions will get a favorite from Tommia and could still be remade; only cards in Tommia contests get favorited by Tommia!

@Gelectrode Very nice card, but what category is it for?
@Flatfish Very nice! Since you're not certain what category it's for, are you okay if I enter it into elegance?
@MAL1CE Very nice cards. Also, I'm fine with changing the names and art. Don't worry. I give credit to the original cards.
