It's Summer time in the Northern Hemisphere! Which is statistically the one with most of you in! Anyway endless_epidemics recent Un Equipment contest reminded me how fun Un designs were, so I decided to increase the forums joy. The Contest:
- You must create and showcase a new Un-mechanic.
- You can use any number of cards to do this.
- You may enter more than one mechanic if you want to.
- All cards must feel like Un cards
- All cards must be enjoyable to play (they have to make the game more, not less, fun)
I will be going on holiday for the next week with sporadic internet access, so this will be long contest, but I promise to grade it when I return. You have 691200 seconds (roughly) from now. GO!

My idea is for Supercycling (Based on the Gempalm from Onslaught block (Legions)) Facepalm Pursuant --  Creature - Human Cleric (R) Supercycling - (, Discard this card: Draw three cards.)When you cycle Facepalm Persuant, you can't cast spells next turn. I think it's great that others give their lives for the pursuit of knowledge... hey! Where's my page flipper?3 / 7 =====xxxxx===== Faceplam Ingenuitist -- Creature - Djinn (R) Flying Supercycling - (, Discard this card: Draw three cards.)When you cycle Facepalm Ingenuitist, tap target creature you control. Until it untaps, it doesn't untap during your untap step. You! Carl! Tell me your name, I'm always forgetting. I think it begins with a a uh... a... um... oh wait...5 / 5 =====xxxxx===== Facepalm Necromancer -- Creature - Human Wizard (R) : Regenerate facepalm Necromancer. Supercycling - Pay 3 life (Pay 3 life, Discard this card: Draw three cards.)When you cycle Facepalm Persuant, sacrifice all creatures you control. They don't untap during your next untap step. Oh! You mean I'm supposed to bring them back from the dead, not to the dead... well that's embarassing.5 / 3 =====xxxxx===== Facepalm Beater --  Creature - Goblin Rigger (R) Supercycling - (, Discard this card: Draw three cards.)When you cycle Facepalm Beater, you fight target creature, then another target creature fights you. It's strange, how much you learn from intimidation and pain.3 / 3 =====xxxxx===== Facepalm Harmonizer -- Creature - Druid Shaman (R) Supercycling - (, Discard this card: Draw three cards.)When you cycle Facepalm Harmonizer, tap all creatures. Altogether now.4 / 4

Sick BurnInstant (C) Sick Burn deals 3 damage to target creature. Rimshot – You may make a bad pun. If you do, Sick Burn deals an additional 3 damage to that creature's controller. "Looks like that Arms Dealer  ... couldn't take the heat. "

My Standard deck: Setting SunThink of how Neo couldn't beat the robots, but they kept him around anyways to defeat Agent Smith. Sure, the robots might not like having a Neo running rampant because instead of playing their favorite 4 drop fatty robot, they have to play a bunch of one mana Matrixs to contain him, but at least Neo keeps Agent Smith from reanimating an Iona on turn two.
Are you saying I'm trying to blame my loss on something? I don't care that I lost, I care that he's a sore loser, and a cheater, and a liar.
CKY, are you bad at anything?
I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.
I mean, In KevinWorld, Mark is reading the very words I'm typing as well. Heck, in KevinWorld maybe I am Mark.
I'm beginning to think CKY may be anime in real life...
Don't go anywhere CKY, I need to crash dramatically through your window and propose marriage and I don't want you throwing off my paradrop.
[In response to a thread about how hard grading is]
Upon reading this, I've found myself completely unable to operate in the world. I tried to decide what to eat for breakfast, and pondered the vast consequences of my choice. How do I balance my dietary needs against my desire to eat good-tasting food? Should I factor in how long it takes to prepare? Cereal is ready in moments, but bacon takes longer to cook.
Then there is the impact on other industries. Do people in the cereal industry deserve to be employed more than people in the bacon industry? Which industry should I support? I don't even have the data regarding HOW MUCH the cereal industry benefits from me eating a bowl of cereal, or how much the bacon industry benefits from me eating a side of bacon. How can I compare two qualities I can't even quantify?
And let's not forget the milk on the cereal. In addition to determining whether or not milk is healthy for me, how much that benefits the milk industry, and how much the people in the milk industry deserve my support, we have to factor in the fact that cows are put under brutal conditions in order to collect thier milk. Of course, the same goes for the pigs, and then they get killed. Of course, I really like bacon. So I need to come up with a scale that compares the value of cow happiness to pig happiness to my happiness. What trade-offs am I willing to make here? Does the fact that the pig gets put out of its misery count as a plus or a minus? Isn't bacon bad for me anyway?
Deciding what to eat for breakfast (or any meal) is impossible. Help me!
I must admit chinkeeyong, you have the most interesting character ideas; and you play them well.
Anyway, you'd be surprised about Time Stop. When I first saw that card as a relatively new player I didn't see its full potential until I read the reminder text. Is it that unintuitive, though? Mine I mean. What is possibility? Is it possible for me to type these words with my tusks? No, because I don't have tusks. Although I am now tempted to go buy some - obviously not from poachers or whatever - and use them as typing apparatus. I could be the best secretary ever. "What's your words per minute sir?" "Well, only six, but I use these tusks to type them." "You're hired!" That was the interview. And is anyone else disappointed that "apparati" is not the plural form of apparatus? I just could strangle a dictionary, because "apparatuses" is a real word. I guess it sounds pretty cool. I'll call them my Apparatusks.

Everybody's Friend Creature - HumanSuper Banding (As this creature is declared to attack, you may declare it to be in a band with any number of other creatures. (That includes opponent's creatures) The band blocks and is blocked as a group. You decide how damage dealt to the band is distributed among its members. The same applies if this creature is declared to block. (If you cannot figure out how this ability works, argue about it until all players but one resign.))I just wanna give you all a great big hug!1/1
