Welcome to Fill in the Blank, the set-building dream card contest!

Normally, each week Nathan will post the collector’s information for one of the cards in the set’s cardlist. Contestants are free to create whatever card they see fit for that slot in the cardlist, keeping in mind the surrounding cards. As the contest progresses, the cardlist will become more and more defined, guiding the contests’ choices.

The theme of our set is The Villains of Star Trek. Not every card has to fit the theme, of course, but it’s something to keep in mind when voting. Speaking of voting, as per normal each contestant will vote for one of the previous week’s entries (with the exception that as the contest runner, I will vote ONLY in the case of a tie).

This week's disclaimer: Nathan gave me some instructions - in the event of a tie involving Entry A, he'd vote A to break the tie. In the event (this event) that A wasn't involved, he'd leave it up to me. So, as the tie involved B, D, E, G and H, I assigned each letter a numerical value, and dropped the numbers 1-5 into http://www.random.org.

So, without further ado...

Our winner from last week: GooeyChewie
