The last egg a day! Don't believe anyone claimed this one yet.
Mathmateical headache for players, I'd think.I found something I like:
My favorite way to playtest a Cube on my own is just to draft it a bunch on CubeCobra. However, this has the problem of BOTS! CubeCobra does not love new cards, and their ELO is very low. This is even more pronounced on Mister Gutsy, my egg of choice for NO GUTSY NO GLORY. I put together a very rough 360 for two reasons: first, because I do plan on building it in paper later because theory-crafting this has been so much fun, and second, because it's much easier to iterate by cutting than by adding. But it's been hard because the bots never draft Gutsy.
Any suggestions? Can I manually change the ELO for my Cube? I feel like I'm getting bad signals. It has helped in terms of seeing where I have gaps and overlaps a ton already and I'm excited to make adjustments, but I feel like there's only so much it can do without it drafting appropriately for this particular context.

It's a beautiful day, folks! I've been having a total creative block when it comes to cubing for the last year or so, and this contest wasn't any different. With a mere week left and no cube to show for it, I was about to throw in the towel. But then I thought of a card:
Pictured: Inspiration!
And that, in conjunction with my old idea of building a "blueless" cube, sparked something in my head. And so, if I may, I would like to introduce you to...
I just burned all of my creative energies on putting together the first draft (which I pretty much did in one shot this afternoon) so there isn't a cube description, but the core idea was to build a four-color cube where the four colors are, , , and , and to go from there.
It's currently really rough, and I dunno if I'll have the wherewithal to polish it... but hey, I did a thing!

Here’s a question— can I put 60 eggs evenly split between two varieties into the same basket?Deadline Specifics

Can the Cube have 30 copies each of two different cards?
My interpretation of the contest was that as long as you had 30+ copies of at least 1 card that is all that mattered. If you had 180x Siege Rhino that would count. 90x Siege Rhino + 90x Brushwagg would also be sufficient.
If people want to add other cards to 'increase variety' then that's on them.
My submission is more about what happens after you eat the delicious cards.
Yes! Hadn't considered it but it's certainly in the spirit of the contest!
I've cleaned up Gaslight, Gatekeep, Green a little bit - now there's a perfunctory overview, and some of the more... questionable... card choices have been replaced. I decided to stop here because I could easily keep fiddling at it, and I don't really want to do that.
I've finished the 180 card version of NO GUTSY NO GLORY, available now for your playing pleasure.
This was a super fun contest that I spent more time than I should have on. I do have to say, 180 card Cubes are much tricker to sculpt than 360 card lists! Very much a situation where less is more. When every card needs to hold so much weight....I'm just glad I picked Mister Gutsy for my card.

Yes
I'm working on mine and I'll submit it to the contest even if it's not finished. Great design prompt!
Yup, I have had to rebuild mine three times because it just wasn't there until I upped my egg from 30 to 90 and when I decided that it's okay that Pia's Revolution is "too strong"
I think I will make it though!

I have a very rough draft, but I don’t expect to be able to finish it and turn it into a proper list.
