[grim ether]

wait, genuine question

it was ok if we uploaded 3 right? that wasnt going over the limit?

[honest tulip]

It’s okay. Nope.

[quartz locust]

Yeah, for this one it's fine. It might not be, going forward. 😅

[grim ether]

thats fair!

[crisp cargo]

I paid for the whole god damn palette I'm using the whole god damn palette

[normal oyster]

Can the owner of the drive see who uploaded it or is it anonymous?

[toxic vigil]

Not sure, but you were supposed to credit yourself in the file name

[idle tiger]

Hey so i did a cofagrigus fusion the other day, im super new here so i didnt realise there was an even t of sorts happening here; is there something i should do to "submit" my fusion for the event?

[teal grove]

nope lol

the contest was only for roserade fusions

and the submission period is over now

[limber venture]

the cofas are just for team cofagrigus

[grand tusk]

and after the 160+ submissions I think contests will be cancelled

[wind matrix]

Get 42 coragrious heads done before the entire thing is completed and you get a fancy role

[teal grove]

arent you supposed to be promoting team pyuku instead of cofagrigus

[limber venture]

i don't think i'm gonna get completionist because of my obsession with scratching everything

but i will certainly try

makki will get it for sure

[wind matrix]

Bilbbo was asking about cofagrious

[idle tiger]

[slow gyro]

You are all wrong, you all should be promoting Dusclops, the superior Ghost Type

[limber venture]

If that's the case where is team dusclops

[wind matrix]

no one's even doing a chart for dusclops

[slow gyro]

I am the Team Dusclops

All of you against me alone

[wind matrix]

Where's your flag?

[slow gyro]

Didn’t knew I needed a flag

XD

[wind matrix]

lol

[slow gyro]

How all of this teams thing work anyways?

I just saw a lot of sprites of some Pokemon and was like “You know what, let me do it myself”

And choose the superior Ghost Type

[wind matrix]

make a chart and bribe people to work for you

[slow gyro]

:000

[wind matrix]

and make updates about it in #sprite-charts

[slow gyro]

Alright, thanks :DD

[teal grove]

Even team klinklang has more members

How embarrassing

[balmy ibex]

thought I could finish this fusion on time before the direct

[wind matrix]

Well, if you get into the top 10% completed, you can have a flag as an emote. So you don't need one right away, but you will eventually

[static heron]

When do we vote on the rosies

[wind matrix]

also you're not allowed to exceed pyukumuku

[ivory olive]

yes they are

[craggy remnant]

need to get work done tonight so i can finally start making wynauts. its so important

[balmy ibex]

why are u doing that

[craggy remnant]

i meant to say this in spriter general oops

[balmy ibex]

please get the joke

[craggy remnant]

IM STUPID

[balmy ibex]

u're making wynaut jokes
I ask why n u say..

[craggy remnant]

oh

[wind matrix]

aaaand missed

[balmy ibex]

[balmy ibex]

thorns.. why did it miss

[wind matrix]

why not?

[balmy ibex]

CLOSE ENOUGH

[ocean crown]

shouts from the back of the room mudkip gaaang

[ivory olive]

get out of the back of the room, your tea is getting cold

[wind matrix]

lol

[zinc lion]

oh, my aegislash aggron didn't make it into main-sprites-voting. guess i was too late

[tired harness]

Well yeah you submitted it this month, it'll probably be in the next pack after this I'd assume

[lunar zenith]

Contest voting when?

[thorny saddle]

#event-announcements has the most recent update

[wind matrix]

be patient. they're trying to figure out a new poll system that can take this many entries

[quartz locust]

They can see, everyone can.

[normal oyster]

If you name it

Not the email

[quartz locust]

They see the whole changelog of who added and renamed sprites. 🙂

[lunar zenith]

You guys aren't taking no more entries, right?

[wind matrix]

they're not lol

[lunar zenith]

Thank God fr

[wind matrix]

lol

nah Xeno just likes making roserades

[quartz locust]

I got trigger happy with the deletions there, sorry Topus. 😅

[odd garnet]

So you recognize it as an entry? 👀

[quartz locust]

No, I thought they were talking about an entry, not a sprite posted today. 😂

[zinc lion]

was going to suggest having a weekly contest with 15 entries per poll but i realized that would take months so nvm

maybe 3 with 55?

[low berry]

quick question: if the discord voting bots cant handle the amount of submissions, why not set up a google form?

[teal grove]

See the problem is that the discord bots CAN handle it

Yall just vote so quickly and in such massive amounts that, for an anonymous poll, yall vote faster than the bot can remove your reactions, thus leaving some votes uncounted

[grand tusk]

so the bots can't handle the amount of votes

[teal grove]

The bots cant handle the rate of votes

In other words, yall need to chill

[wind matrix]

there is a new beta thing that has buttons instead of reactions that we might test out 👀

[plucky arch]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-my-god-its-happening-ok-stay-calm-the-office-gif-6091046

[stiff valley]

[teal grove]

guys

dont fucking break the polls this time please

[balmy ibex]

no

[teal grove]

im going to specifically wait like half an hour to make sure my votes are counted

[normal oyster]

No promises

[balmy ibex]

actually I'll give it a while too

[next oxide]

Im ready to vote

[olive heron]

I'm ready to note

[next oxide]

Not ocunting my vote why :?

[teal grove]

anonymous voting

[next oxide]

Oh ok

[teal grove]

you should get a dm from the bot that says youve voted

also the moment the polls channel was opened, Cynthia's theme played on my playlist

i am shitting my pants

metaphorically

[olive heron]

Is it normal for me not to see the channel...

[weary pagoda]

Reload Discord and you'll see it!

[olive heron]

huh...
It works if I use Ctrl K and look up "polls", that saves me some time

[next oxide]

Wow so many good ones! Really hard to vote

[weary pagoda]

oh, interesting 👀

[low berry]

shitty epic programmer trick: add a clone of the vote bot to the discord for every poll added. That way each bot only has to worry about one poll, and you only have to worry about micromanaging 200+ bots!

Nothing will go wrong.

[dreamy abyss]

So this is my first time in this server so I'd like to ask, what are contests for and how are they different from the main sprite voting?

[teal grove]

contests are for fun

all the entries go into the game

they have the goal of making more sprites for the game alltogether instead of just deciding which one is the main sprite

[stiff valley]

Voted

[teal grove]

and the contest winner becomes the server icon

plus you get a fancy role

and some contests have prize money

[dreamy abyss]

Ah I see, thanks!

[olive heron]

So wait, are we allowed only one vote total, or only one vote per single 9 sprite group?

[silver merlin]

one vote for each bracket

[olive heron]

Alright alright, ty

[misty acorn]

Can't believe Kecleon/Kecleon made it into so many brackets and always ended up at the bottom right

That's crazy

Voted for him every time tho

[silver merlin]

tomate shut up and dont vote for that place 🚎

i just copy pasted the same thing over and over cuz i was too tired lmao

[late sequoia]

Lots of good entries for this one. I know it was a pain but thanks for setting it up Katten!

[lofty ivy]

thank you to katten and the other contest mods for all your hard work!!

[brazen dome]

Same 🥲

[lofty ivy]

The contests and all these fantastic sprites wouldnt exist without you

[teal grove]

hey katten

small question

why 19 polls

[olive heron]

Is there 2 LatiosLatias + Roserade because it's technically 3 pokemon? lol

Ok it makes sense, I thought I was going insane

[lunar zenith]

POLLS YEAAAH

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-jumping-cat-excited-excited-dance-gif-19354605

[zinc lion]

@silver merlin when does voting end

[teal grove]

tomorrow same time

[silver merlin]

yep

[normal oyster]

Patience peasant

[muted island]

gl everyone!

[wind matrix]

ITS HERE

[languid bough]

Forgot to submit mine

There’s a very similar one that got submitted tho

[olive heron]

Plagiarism in Pokemon Infinite Fusion?!? :O

[languid bough]

Nah it’s only conceptually similar

[wind matrix]

I voted for ||Roserade||

[tough lark]

Omg I can’t believe you’d say that you’re gonna sway the votes

[grand tusk]

pls ban Thorns for rule 7 😳

[mortal storm]

@silver merlin it probably doesn't matter at all... but cause I think I recognised it... how hard will you punch me if I say there is one sprite in two different polls ? :s

poll 9 A3
poll 14 A1

[silver merlin]

wtf

ugh god i hate this sm

(im not redoing these

[mortal storm]

I'm sorry x(

[silver merlin]

lmfaoo its not ur bad its literally my bad

[mortal storm]

I mean I think it doesn't matter at all

[silver merlin]

yeahh i dont think its a huge deal

[mortal storm]

just mentioned it, not that another sprite maybe was overlooked or the double took the spot of a different sprite

but I guess in that case the certain sprite would have already PN'd you

*spriter

and independent from that: holy why you are all SO good ? Was a pleasure to vote (and I fear the next rounds polls lol). ^-^

[grand tusk]

Wow I didn't even notice lmao

[silver merlin]

shhh

[grand tusk]

the secret boost

[oak geyser]

i thought it was like an advanced calculation thing honestly

[lethal rivet]

Wow it took so long to vote, all of these were SO GOOD

[balmy ibex]

trash opinion honestly

[teal grove]

Yeah

I voted for

[normal oyster]

Just take the most votes the sprite got

[grand tusk]

I think this might count as rule 7 btw

[barren prawn]

I have a question regarding the contest sprites. Will the sprites be on the next sprite pack or is it primarily for the server profile?

[grand tusk]

If the person who submitted it also posted it to #sprite-gallery then it would be in the next sprite pack

assuming it was sent to gallery before January it'd be in the upcoming one, if it was in Feb then the next month's pack

[barren prawn]

Ohh ok

Because a lot of the sprites shown are outstanding

[grand tusk]

yeah a ton of great entries (we can't say any specifics btw, rule 7)

[wind matrix]

Rush refuses to post his winning sprite to the gallery

[quartz locust]

This counts as breaking Rule 7. Don't talk about sprites that are being voted on, including your own.

[crude cedar]

can I talk about voting for ||Roserade||? because thats my vote

[quartz locust]

Likewise, @toxic vigil. 😅

[toxic vigil]

Seriously? I'm not talking about the sprite itself or disclosing my actual vote

[quartz locust]

Yes, anything that might sway someone one way or another counts.

[grand tusk]

I think i've seen (and made) the joke about "i'll vote roserade" like 10 times now lol

[quartz locust]

It got old around 25 contests ago. 😂

[wind matrix]

It will never get old!

[grand tusk]

I will make it again

[wind matrix]

[toxic vigil]

The contest is anonymous. How could my statement reasonably sway anyone? The sprites aren't marked by who submitted them, nor are the votes public

[wind matrix]

you can literally look up who posted what lol

[quartz locust]

It has swayed people's opinions in the past, and the submissions aren't at all anonymous. Votes might be, but that doesn't mean people can't be swayed. 😅

[grand tusk]

or you know, if you posted it in #sprite-gallery ...

[wind matrix]

or #1050404143807873157

[grand tusk]

or here, earlier

[wind matrix]

or here

[grand tusk]

like people have

[wind matrix]

dangit

[grand tusk]

AYO

OWNED

[wind matrix]

[grand tusk]

you know what that means Thorns

[toxic vigil]

this is so awesome can you guys kiss on the lips

[wind matrix]

we fite to the death

[grand tusk]

🧿 👄 🧿 If you insist BeetEm

no Thorns, you make the pot pie

[toxic vigil]

man y'know, i think this rule 7 breaking has gotten very out of hand... we should delete #event-general to curb it.

as a matter of fact, any other channel in this server has the potential to... 😱 facilitate discussion about the event! that's not what we want!

nothing worse than the free, unrestricted exchange of opinions and ideas, on a topic so minor as a selection of sprites for a fangame... in the first round, no less, where votes arguably matter the most out of any round

[quartz locust]

Now we're delving more into Rule 10 territory. 😅

[grand tusk]

quick, switch to another rule to break, that'll help!

[wind matrix]

POST NSFW

[quartz locust]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-no-angry-steve-carell-michael-scott-gif-5606969

[toxic vigil]

Alright, I'm done complaining. But please consider following rule 1, it's not very conducive to a positive reputation to be so pedantic about the rules

[wind matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/falling-chair-man-rob-fall-gif-17848940

[toxic vigil]

Not that I should tell you how to do your job, but I really think your argument, as to how what i did actually broke rule 7, is flimsy at best, considering i wasn't posting with the intention of changing someone's mind

But it can't be undeleted, so I guess it doesn't really matter

[quartz locust]

Enforcing the rules we put into place because of proven issues with vote influencing due to similar posts in the past isn't pedantry. It's learning from past mistakes. Contest sprites can be talked about when they're voted out, they're not banned in the aether forever.

You might not have had the intention of changing someone's mind, but it may have had that effect regardless. Such is the way with making statements like that. 😦

[graceful plank]

Chesterton's fence etc

[grand tusk]

better to be too strict then too lenient

[toxic vigil]

Well, right, but how far removed of a statement actually triggers a change in someone's mind?

If I say something someone doesn't agree with, and of their own volition they look up my sprite and change their vote, does that make what I said violate rule 7?

[quartz locust]

That's more of a philosophical question that again goes back to Rule 10. I'm making these decisions based on things that have happened in the past.

[wooden rock]

[grand tusk]

yes, that's kinda why we don't allow any discussion on sprites being voted

silence must be done to protect the good of the people's will!

[toxic vigil]

Right, I'm just unclear on where the line is now

And if that's truly the case, wouldn't it be best to lock down the contest channels while the polls are still open?

[quartz locust]

Talking about any sprites being voted on and giving any indication of your thoughts as to the quality of them is the line. Don't be the guy that crosses the line. 😦

[grand tusk]

You know, my complaint is "This should be a courtesy as opposed to a rule, but it will still be enforced." cause... it should be a rule...

[quartz locust]

When they're out, they get voted for. 😅

[quartz locust]

It used to be a courtesy, but people ignored it and i's easier to have the rule number and description to point to. 😦

[grand tusk]

courtesy deez... you get the joke

[toxic vigil]

Well, maybe I should have articulated my point better, then, since I wasn't intending to discuss anything related to sprite quality

Or the actual sprites, actually

[wooden rock]

is this a bad time?

[toxic vigil]

no ur good

[quartz locust]

There's seldom a bad time in this server. 😄

[toxic vigil]

i dont have anything else to say, really

[grand tusk]

speak for yourself Blaq

[toxic vigil]

like theres more id like to say but it wouldnt be conducive to my point

[grand tusk]

sound type war was long and bloody

[toxic vigil]

so im willing to let it be

[toxic vigil]

sound type war?

[indigo ice]

who wants to kiss

[wind matrix]

we don't talk about that

[toxic vigil]

sorry im taken

[indigo ice]

so am I its ok

[toxic vigil]

because CLEARLY you MUST have been talking about ME...

[grand tusk]

yes we do, it's sound type duh

[indigo ice]

[grand tusk]

speaking is a sound

[wind matrix]

YOU'LL BRING BACK PTSD FROM THE WAR

?tag kiss

[loud locust]

Uh, I have a question? 🖐️

[quartz locust]

I don't know what this is.

[grand tusk]

thats a lick

[quartz locust]

I like the Sound-type concept, though. 😄

[wind matrix]

its a kiss

[quartz locust]

Sure, what's up? 😄

[toxic vigil]

pokemon fans when the fangame doesn't add 18 additional types

[grand tusk]

Blaquaza is on the side of "sound type makes sense as a type"

MODS CHOSE A SIDE

[loud locust]

When will the preliminay polls close?

[toxic vigil]

every pokemon makes sound. therefore, sound is a normal thing for pokemon to do

[wind matrix]

I'm not a mod so I don't have to choose

[toxic vigil]

thus it follows... that normal > sound

[wind matrix]

tomorrow I think

[toxic vigil]

i mean, aren't all the sound moves already normal type?

[loud locust]

thanks

[toxic vigil]

maybe not metal sound actually

[plucky arch]

[grand tusk]

yes, so they would become sound type

and sound type would be for pokemon specifically related to sound

like exploud

or kriketune

[loud locust]

And guys, is light a type? like the stuff that travels at 3x108 m/s?

[woven kettle]

A Sound type sounds like a fucking stupid ok idea if you know how to use it I’m not a mod so I don’t get to say my opinion

[quartz locust]

#spriter-general

[toxic vigil]

so you have what, exploud line, kricketune line, audino maybe, that gives you six pokemon?

[wind matrix]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TT_MYXat5xk

[loud locust]

No? then sound doesn't deserve to be first.

[plucky arch]

there are So Many sound based pokemon and types, also i just want a pokemon named Decibolt

[toxic vigil]

the nineteenth type should be poo

[crude cedar]

this sounds complicated

[loud locust]

Light type first then we can talk sound

[toxic vigil]

poo type > light type > sound type

like come on... paldean wooper had to be ground/poison? its brown! surely one evolutionary line having a motif constitutes an entire upheaval of the type chart!

[loud locust]

Is poo type a combination of grass and ground type? Like lava bending in Avatar?

[plucky arch]

Exploud Line
Kricketot Line
Chatot
Chingling Line
Jangmo-o Line
Altaria Line
Noivern Line
Meloetta
Lapras
Maractus
Rillaboom
Primarina
Jigglypuff Line
maybe even Pyroar and Audino if we rly want

boom

[crude cedar]

explain what this has to do with the contest?

[plucky arch]

im not sure

[toxic vigil]

poo type is added into Infinite Fusion if I win

[loud locust]

New special contest idea: design sound type pokemon

[crude cedar]

maybe as a theme

[crude cedar]

like using these pokemon in fusions?

[toxic vigil]

its closer to psychic type, in the sense that every pokemon thinks, but some think better than others. every pokemon poos, but some are more poo than others

[crude cedar]

garbodor smells like a poo type

stunky = poo type

[loud locust]

Are these three types your starter triangle for your new game?

[toxic vigil]

poo and what other types?

[grand tusk]

egg

[loud locust]

Sound and light

[toxic vigil]

well

i can see how sound would be super effective on poo, because of the brown note

but i cant see how poo and light have any interaction with each other

[loud locust]

light makes poo smell worse?

[toxic vigil]

maybe poo, psychic, and sound? because poo grosses out the psychic types and they can't concentrate?

or maybe have four starters- poo, psychic, light, sound?

like i can see psychic beating light because of illusions bending light

i can see light beating sound because of the speed of light vs mach I difference

and again sound beating poo

[loud locust]

I've just taken a step back and dear god what have we gotten into

[toxic vigil]

but a type quartet isnt exactly super pokemonny

err, starter quartet

[grand tusk]

This is what bringing up the sound type does to your brain

[swift crow]

so do we vote on all the preleminaries, or just the first one?

[toxic vigil]

all of them, its like the first round of a bracket

if they only wanted you to vote on one, there would only be one poll up

[wind matrix]

all of them

[swift crow]

ah ok, the weekly part confused me, my bad

[toxic vigil]

sound type is cringe and overdone, poo type is just what the pokemon community needs

[tall moss]

people always talk abour sound type but people never consider the other attack/ability synergies that have the same properties that could becometypes, like dance type, or balls type

[wind matrix]

ok but what about stench type

[plucky arch]

i personally am a big fan of the Balls type

[sharp estuary]

food type

[grand tusk]

human type 😳

[wind matrix]

blood type

[grand tusk]

type type, only word/letter/number related pokemon

[wind matrix]

unown is type type

[grand tusk]

only Porygon-2 and Z are type type

[tall moss]

also i jidt finished voting and holy shit

[grand tusk]

we're onto something

[tall moss]

so many good sprites

[grand tusk]

yeah it's a great contest, we should allow more submissions next time for even more great sprites

[cedar quest]

It's not 100% confirmed yet, but

The next contest should be mine to run

((I've been trying to get a definitive answer for a week now, help me ))

[vagrant thorn]

don't poke the bees nest, you'll get stung with question about the next contest

[wind matrix]

GamR about to be harrased by spriters

[cedar quest]

I mean, considering it's probs mine IDC

Plus, if you look carefully...

I've already revealed what my plans are

[wind matrix]

GAMR WHEN IS THE NEXT CONTEST

[cedar quest]

When Roserade contest concludes

[silk gyro]

The next contest is ||route completion||

[cedar quest]

That would be a great calamity in of itself

((and that is the only hint I give, apart on what I've already said))

[wind matrix]

Next contest is qwilfish

[cedar quest]

I'll direct you to the info you need but uhhh

yeah no

just nope

[wind matrix]

gonna be a rehash of the apocolypse contest

[cedar quest]

Like just search up the word contest from me, and you'll be able to find my plan easily

[wind matrix]

lol

[grand tusk]

Let's go, Qwil contest

[west flare]

so many talented artists, i wish all of these sprites could be in the game!

[wind matrix]

sadly only the winner will

[balmy ibex]

the rest will be publicly crucified

good luck everyone!

[kindred cave]

Hold up

Wait a minute

Something ain’t right

[cedar quest]

Whatever could you mean

[balmy ibex]

Too late to back down now Cactus.

[kindred cave]

It’s too late for this goes to sleep

[wind matrix]

[honest tulip]

Wait what so the milotic/gardevoir (actually is gardevoir/milotic but whatever) …

[honest tulip]

It’d be a shame if the winner just slide qwil…

[wind matrix]

LOL I was joking. sprites are put in the game if you put them in the gallery or let one of us get away with harvesting it

[honest tulip]

Don’t harvest the sprite that got carried onto the throne by simps 😂

[wind matrix]

people are very sad about not getting their mermaid waifu tho

[ivory olive]

I don't expect to even get past the preliminaries, but this is fun

[honest tulip]

The excitement to see vote results and the adrenaline waiting for it is fun

[honest tulip]

Nahhh nahhhhhhh

[ivory olive]

fr

[wind matrix]

Charlotte needs their waifu

[honest tulip]

There are better waifus

Like jynx/slaking

[untold violet]

I think there are two times the same Garchomp/Roserade in the polls
One in preliminaries 9 and the other one in preliminaries 14

[wind matrix]

someone else already pointed it out

[honest tulip]

Yea but || I think there are multiple roserade fusions and I think roserade fusion will definitely win|| don’t u think so too?

[wind matrix]

that's not what they were saying at all but ok

[honest tulip]

Yea but || u can’t deny the fact that there’s multiple roserade fusions and roserade fusion will definitely win||

But yea I get it, there’s dupe entry

[wind matrix]

lol

[plucky arch]

ah if only

[crude cedar]

Dont know if its too late but i just voted

[wind matrix]

not too late, polls still open

[silk gyro]

Rule 7

?tag rule7

[urban knot]

Make sure to follow the #rules!

7. Contest voting. This should be a courtesy as opposed to a rule, but it will still be enforced. Do not talk about individual sprites currently being voted on in contests, as this potentially sways and influences voting outcomes. This also means before voting begins, so no discussion on sprites until they are out of the voting or until voting is done. Posting the sprites in #spriting-discussion to receive feedback is an exception to that, however, so feel free to discuss work in progress sprites there before they are submitted to the contest.

[crude cedar]

Your server your rules but what do you do if you want to talk about the ones you like?

Feel like that isnt an unreasonable thing to want to do.

[silk gyro]

(its not my server)
wait until votings over

[crude cedar]

Aight

[wind matrix]

delete this

before I get GamR in here

[silk gyro]

(dont you have those perms?)

[wind matrix]

@cedar quest

[wind matrix]

nope!

[crude cedar]

Aight my bad

[wind matrix]

I can only delete stuff in the gallery

thank 👍

[silk gyro]

i am shocked that wedont have a pikachugasp emote yet

[crude cedar]

What are the stakes of this vote?

[wind matrix]

#discord-suggestions message

[wind matrix]

yr life

[silk gyro]

yet

[wind matrix]

the winner gets a fancy role and their winning sprite to be the discord server icon for a while

I think Milan actually died on their keybord

[crude cedar]

Does the sprite get put in the game?

I was typing something long but i decided against it.

Oh interesting.

So what if 2 people do the same sprite? Is that what the letters on the filenames are for? Are you supposed to pick the ones you want and remove the letters?

I just started playing today so the filesystem is new to me

[graceful plank]

no, the one without letters is the 'main' that appears by default

and the others are alts which you can swap to in the pokedex

[crude cedar]

Ahh thank you

[silk gyro]

This is the greatest way I've heard us referred to as

[keen nymph]

do you vote 1 from a,b and c or just one of them?

[wind matrix]

Phase, join me in the hive mind

[wind matrix]

just one from each poll

[silk gyro]

I already have, I've become blu

[keen nymph]

ok

[silk gyro]

I aspire to become more blu in the future

[keen nymph]

try holding your breath

[silk gyro]

Wrong kind of blue

[keen nymph]

done all polls and sprite voting im going back to bed for a while

[honest tulip]

The completionist role is a darker shade of blue than the champion if I’m not wrong

[teal grove]

Ill have both eventually

[silk bolt]

Thorns, let me choose the next contest topic pls

[silver merlin]

next contest spoilers:

||it will have smth to do with spriting||

[silk bolt]

OMG HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE

[honest tulip]

||animation only contest?||

[silk bolt]

No.

:proboai:

Didn't work sadge

[teal grove]

The next contest theme has already been chosen but i actually like the sound of this

Itll have a lot less entries

[honest tulip]

Lmao

[silver merlin]

the next four ones have already been choosen LOL

[honest tulip]

What if everyone just make their sprite start bouncing

[silver merlin]

or just makes their still sprite a gif

[honest tulip]

Fkkk imagine CM just make every contest tedious AF to make entries lesser

[teal grove]

If i recall correctly, the next one is the sequel to the calamity contest, then it’s the klinklanklontest

[honest tulip]

64x64 canvas + but legendary only

[honest tulip]

Klinklanklontest with 64x64 canvas

32x32

[silver merlin]

(no)

[teal grove]

Thatd be so shit lmao

[silver merlin]

LMAO

Klinklanklontest but you can only use the default ms paint colours

[cedar quest]

You're close it's the threequel / finale

[teal grove]

What was the one before Calamity

I dont think i was in the server at the time

[cedar quest]

Overgrown

It's also one of the few contests w/ a Skel'n doodle

[honest tulip]

will we get a skeln doodle if there's jirachi contest?

[teal grove]

Huh, didnt know it was somehow connected to it

[visual folio]

why don't you guys add an occasional rule where you can only choose fusions that don't have custom sprites yet

or would that not work

[honest tulip]

Not sure if past contest did this before the CMs got plans for future contest already anyway

[silver merlin]

wont limit entries will just limit creativity lmao

[honest tulip]

limit entries? ||mods only contest ||

[silver merlin]

besides

eh

[crisp cargo]

based

[graceful plank]

also then what happens if two people do the same thing

[honest tulip]

same fusions have been a common case in the past 2 classic contest I participated in, idt it's that big of a problem

[crisp cargo]

it's not, sometimes it just happens

[teal grove]

Yeah

[weary pagoda]

[teal grove]

What about klinklanklontest

[weary pagoda]

You'll get a drawing of a bucket of tears

[dusk schooner]

Stock photo of some cogs

[teal grove]

Katten's tears

[weary pagoda]

(ours

[teal grove]

Hey cmon, its not so bad

At least you wont have to deal with 160 entries

[molten crater]

so a fraxure contest huh...

[crude cedar]

You know what? I actually have a better idea for a contest;

What if we make a Little Cup Contest?

IE; We're only allowed to make fusions using the very first part of the evolutionary line. And Pokemon that can't evolve are not allowed

[teal grove]

Wow

https://tenor.com/view/the-simpsons-why-didnt-i-think-of-that-hank-scorpio-homer-simpson-you-only-move-twice-gif-20385109

[crude cedar]

I... Can't tell if you're being Sarcastic or not

[teal grove]

I am

Weve done multiple little cup contests

Quite a few even

#special-contest-gallery

[crude cedar]

Huh... I've only been here for like, a couple of weeks, so I haven't really seen much other than the Aegislash and Magic/Mystical Contests

[teal grove]

Dw, i wasnt in the server yet when the last little cup ended

At least i think

[visual folio]

do the opposite and make a contest with an entire evolution line

[crude cedar]

Hm... Actually, that's a neat idea

"Use the Fully Evolved and First Stage as the Fusion"

Has that been done before?

[teal grove]

i dont think so

although

i think evolution line contests have been done before

[silver merlin]

im def voting for jirachi too

[weary pagoda]

YES

[silver merlin]

honestly you made me enjoy jirachi a whole lot more LMAO

[weary pagoda]

BE THE COOLEST LIKE KATTEN GUYS, VOTE FOR JIRACHI TOO 🫵

[silver merlin]

BE THE LIKE THE EVEN COOLER SKEL'N AND VOTE JIRACHI 🫵

[honest tulip]

Is it possible to change my choice for the poll?

[silver merlin]

no

[honest tulip]

Technically speaking, jirachi is not in the pool yet

[quartz locust]

It has my vote. 😄

https://tenor.com/view/jirachi-pokemon-smile-flying-happy-gif-5931956

[teal grove]

ok but what if

[honest tulip]

Hush

[teal grove]

what if you didnt want to be a catgirl

[quartz locust]

How is Jirachi a catgirl?

[weary pagoda]

YES!! THANK YOU

[plucky arch]

idk why were voting jirachi but im down

[silver merlin]

😎 cant wait for the eventual dunking on husk again-

[crude cedar]

Where's the Poll for next contest located at?

I mean, which channel do I go to to decide what Pokemon is in the next contest?

[teal grove]

86 reactions

[silver merlin]

no klinklanklontest

[teal grove]

itll happen eventually

[crude cedar]

Okay... But which channel do we go to to vote for what Pokemon the next Contest will be?

[teal grove]

you'll be pinged when it happens

[crude cedar]

Its going to be pikachu contest so might as well start making the sprite now 🤷‍♂️

[teal grove]

That's illegal

[crude cedar]

I noticed the same Garchomp/Roserade is 2 times in the polls

[teal grove]

We're aware

[crude cedar]

Okay I just wanted to go sure

[odd garnet]

Smart
If one falls then the other might get through in a more favorable bracket

[quartz locust]

Rule 7.

[lunar zenith]

Ah, sorry boss

[odd garnet]

Does Rule 7 apply when I say
"I WANT A ROSERADE FUSION TO WIN A CONTEST FOR ONCE"
: D

[quartz locust]

No, it that's a tired joke instead. 😂

[zinc remnant]

good because I want a Roserade fusion to win

All my votes were for those

[odd garnet]

SAME I only voted for the Roserade fusions this time
Mhm

[magic jewel]

How can i vote, sorry i'm a bit new

[mossy belfry]

in contest polls there sprites are divided into letter number combos and those correspond to a reaction you can do on the poll message

[magic jewel]

is the poll available?

[teal grove]

#contest-polls

[cyan bramble]

some sprites are in more than one poll, is that alright?

[spark scroll]

It doesnt let me vote in contest poll

[teal grove]

It does

Stuff's anonymous

Any votes that are left on the poll arent counted because that means the bot broke ar the time of voting

[rocky sandal]

Where's the new polls?

I want to see if my entries survived

[grand tusk]

or suffering because they don't wanna make new polls

[rocky sandal]

+150 entries 💀

They really need to regulate the number of ppl that can participate

[grand tusk]

more like number of entries

unless they have a registration period first to see how many people join then decide number of entries

We'll see what GamR or Katten are planning I guess, after they're done saying "help us" as they languish in the 150+ sprite tournament

[teal grove]

Are the contest managers alright?

[ocean crown]

yesn’t

[wind matrix]

no, they're dead and it's all Husk's fault

[grand tusk]

did they try not dying?

[wind matrix]

shoulda given them that tip earlier

[indigo ice]

its only the top vote from each thing that goes into the next round, right?

[wind matrix]

In the past, they've had the top vote go into the finals, the the second to top ones get voted to see who also goes in the finals

but it's prolly different this time around

[grand tusk]

it's on them for never holding shift to delete stuff

actual bumble moments on them

[wind matrix]

XD

[grand tusk]

I just asked Oakwood, he does not use shift delete

mods more like bad

[wind matrix]

I still don't hold shift to delete stuff. I keep forgetting

[grand tusk]

just what I expect from someone who kicks dogs

[wind matrix]

I don't kick dogs

[grand tusk]

I have a pic of you with the quote

no excuses

You know what Thorns, I'm sending you back to DISCORD MODERATOR ACADEMY

[wind matrix]

I'm not even a mod lol

[grand tusk]

do you choose who does and doesn't get the spriter role?

[wind matrix]

maybe

[grand tusk]

can you remove the role as needed and/or delete sprites posted incorrectly?

[wind matrix]

maybe

[grand tusk]

🫵 😂 This bozo is a mod

[wind matrix]

LOL

[grand tusk]

absolutely refuted by facts and logic

[wind matrix]

But I can't delete message anywhere else or ban or mute people

[grand tusk]

So you're a mod for specific channels dummy

[wind matrix]

🤔

[grand tusk]

You a sprite mod

https://discord.com/moderation Go to school

[indigo ice]

well! and i hope it isnt breaking a rule if i say this but in the case that things have changed and mine doesnt get through i definitely did a good job either way :3

[balmy ibex]

that's all that matters

[odd garnet]

Dang
That's a lot of votes

Especially for that mon...

[ivory olive]

Which?

Oh, ok

[zinc lion]

when round 2

[wind matrix]

when the contest managers get revived

[grand tusk]

im sorry we killed you contest managers 😔

[mortal storm]

Hm… it’s a little bit sad, that in the later votes with only 8 sprites in the poll… the blank space sometimes has more votes than some actual sprites. X(

[grand tusk]

dont the votes erase themselves though so it doesnt actually reflect the proper vote count?

[teal grove]

What BlueBonz said

The votes you see present on the polls arent counted

[wind matrix]

thought these did count tho

[cedar quest]

? ? ?

[wind matrix]

GamR lives!

[cedar quest]

Oh don't think I'm doing the polls, made it clear that the next one is mine

[wind matrix]

lol

Poor Katten

[teal grove]

Oh youve gotta be shitting me

Fucking simps

I called it

[honest tulip]

Shhhh

Rule7

I too am disappointed

Lmao

[wind matrix]

let simper simp

[teal grove]

Ah fuck

None of mine made it through

Dammit

[wind matrix]

same lol

my joke sprite only got one less vote then my serious sprite XD

[teal grove]

it's gonna take a while to find out the new meta for contests, it seems

apart from yknow

SIMPS

[honest tulip]

||people voting for the empty spot more than a sprite is a violation 😭||

[teal grove]

i imagine some people were like

"this is the last sprite in the bracket, so obviously i have to vote on the last option"

not realizing that that option wasnt what they were voting for

[honest tulip]

Oof

[teal grove]

same goes for the others in the latter half

it wouldnt come to me as a surprise if some sprites got less votes than they were supposed to because of that

though, with the top 3 getting over 50 votes most of the time, i doubt it makes a difference

[honest tulip]

getting over 50 sprites? did the sprite hunger game start without me knowing?

[teal grove]

look

i just woke up

im not the brightest

[wind matrix]

lol

[teal grove]

so considering how im out of this contest

and roserade is going to be replaced with the choice of this winner

and deoxys is gonna get yeeted by the winner of the fantasy contest, since deoxys was the oldest option to vote on in the last contest poll

[honest tulip]

the downfall of klinklang

[teal grove]

i need to win the next contest to keep klinklang in the poll

because otherwise

ill have to wait another few contest before another chance at a klinklanklontest

[wind matrix]

better get gud

follow the waifu meta

[honest tulip]

thou shall not succumb

[teal grove]

ill mourn the day that i fall for that

[wind matrix]

in b4 most entries are gardivors and lopunnys

[honest tulip]

I'll be real and admit that I'm thinking abt making more gardevoir fusions

[teal grove]

and yknow what i really dislike

[odd garnet]

Man if that was the Meta then I should have kept my Aerodactyl Roserade based off a succubus in my entries

[teal grove]

next contest is probably only gonna allow 1 entry per person

[wind matrix]

Xeno not knowing the meta

[teal grove]

i refuse to succumb to simping for my only entry

[odd garnet]

It's fine
My picks don't have to face off in the next round
WOOOOO

[honest tulip]

I think this convo is on the verge of violating rule7, thou we're not speaking of a specific sprite, we are... ||sort of implying the trend of vote shld change||

[teal grove]

that's because it should, quality and creativity over booba

[odd garnet]

Or is this just your revenge on the person who dunked you?

[honest tulip]

error 404: Boba not found

[teal grove]

xeno are you oblivious to which sprites won the last two contests

[honest tulip]

I'M SORRY

[odd garnet]

You mean Rush and Rush?

[honest tulip]

the last contest ain't my fault

I only submitted 1 entry and I even fked with the colour

it's all cuz of simps

[teal grove]

[odd garnet]

This is why we have to make entries to stop the simping

[wind matrix]

simping will never stop

it is the nature of human

[odd garnet]

I swear if the next contest is a Pokemon Contest contest

[wind matrix]

they're all pokemon contests

[honest tulip]

they're all pokemon fusion contest

[odd garnet]

Nonono
Like the ones in Gen 3

Cool
Tough
Beauty
Cute
Smart

[teal grove]

if ||rule 7|| wins this contest im just quitting contests alltogether

[honest tulip]

hopefully jirachi gets to be the nxt classic contest

The stars will shine again

[odd garnet]

Jirachi in a dress

[wind matrix]

I need to bribe whoever wins to put miltank in

[honest tulip]

This might be cool, then we’ll have like a set of judges instead of the community to decide (maybe a mix of both)

[wind matrix]

there are judged contests

[teal grove]

i never thought id say this, but we need more judged contests

[odd garnet]

It can be 5 different contests

And I'm gonna put Roserade in all of them

[wind matrix]

Xeno only makes roserades now

[odd garnet]

Roserade's cool
Roserade's Beautiful
Roserade's cute
Roserade looks smart
And Roserade's tough... At Special Attacking
It all fits OK!

XD

[wind matrix]

lol

[odd garnet]

I regret not making the legendary trio for contest

[honest tulip]

Which legendary trio 😂

[wind matrix]

THE legendary trio

keep up Rush

[teal grove]

your mom, your dad and the mailman

[wind matrix]

why the mailman?!

[honest tulip]

There’s the legendary birds, dogs, weather, dragon and what else?

[teal grove]

spacetime

[wind matrix]

lake bois

[teal grove]

yeah those look sick

[wind matrix]

no contest for them

[odd garnet]

Inb4 next contest is the Legendary trio contest

Your entry must consist of 3 fusions of 1 Pokemon fused with the members of a legendary trio

And they will be judged as a trio

Or an Avatar contest where you'll have to make a fusion of one of the 4 elements

Oh oh!
The Garden of Eden contest
Make a fusion that fits with the theme "The Garden of Eden"

[teal grove]

i have an idea

what if we did a classic contest

but for klinklang

[odd garnet]

How about a contest for Kecleon where the rule is that your Kecleon fusion MUST be invisible

[indigo ice]

what about a contest for

[wind matrix]

how about a contest for making the most cursed sprite

[rare swift]

So a miltank contest?

[wind matrix]

you can make cursed sprites without miltank

[rare swift]

of course, but miltank guarantees it

[odd garnet]

The Kaiju contest
Fuse 2 Pokemon to make a Kaiju

[wind matrix]

waifu contest

[misty acorn]

Those three as a pair are so clean, holy shit

[rare swift]

That makes me think immediately of the bodies of Tyranitar, Torterra, Dragonite, Feraligatr etc. Could make for an interesting contest

[odd garnet]

Venomothra

[rocky sandal]

As i said, where's the next poll?

[honest tulip]

Be patient

[odd garnet]

At least the amount of entries have shrunk down for the next poll right?

[teal grove]

Yes

[balmy ibex]

who's next?

[odd garnet]

🦊

[normal oyster]

Bru

[balmy ibex]

oh ninetales

[normal oyster]

||Roserade || is definitely goind to win

[balmy ibex]

Rule 7

[odd garnet]

🌹 🎭 🌹

[normal oyster]

[balmy ibex]

ooooh

a kitsune roserade w one of those fox masks?

[rocky sandal]

Aw man

My sprites didn't survive

[molten crater]

how many sprites advance to the next round? 3?

[odd garnet]

Stressful isn't it 😵

One of my sprites was in the 17th round and BOY THAT WAS NECK AND NECK

[tired harness]

It's ok mine also was killed😂

[loud locust]

Two of my sprites were in the same poll

[teal grove]

A bit late to complain now

Also what

[loud locust]

I don’t care since I knew I wasn’t gonna win a poll

[lunar zenith]

Mines were killed damn

[charred igloo]

I'm surprised I got sum votes

[kindred cave]

Mine got 5 votes

Better than last time

[odd garnet]

7 people really wanted empty space to win xD

[silver merlin]

tomate and his 6 alts smh

[charred igloo]

when will we have a pokemon sprite that is just,, nothing

ditto x porygon z

oh my god yes

[teal grove]

See i actually talked about that

It's possible that

People wanted to vote for the last sprite in the poll

And just clicked on the last option

[odd garnet]

So H would have gotten 60 then

[teal grove]

Which would then also mean some people that wanted to vote on the penultimate sprite accidentally voted on the last sprite

[plucky arch]

18 votes total lets go

well, 16

[teal grove]

I dont think it wouldve made the results any different

[teal grove]

Why's this here lmao

[odd garnet]

Cause I want to submit it for the contest
But can't 🥲

[ivory olive]

Same

[odd garnet]

Ok what if you were to vote for one of these 3? Who would win the bracket? XD

[ivory olive]

I like marble pillars, so it was easy for me

[crisp cargo]

-snip-

-snip-

-snip-

wait this might be rule 7 actually so

[silver merlin]

sorry for the lack of polls

life has been killing me recently

[normal oyster]

Same

https://tenor.com/view/xluna-high-five-gif-25422702

[teal grove]

Wtf kill it back

[honest tulip]

rip deploy the klinklang fusions to cheer up katten

[vocal vault]

Wait votes up?

[normal oyster]

No

[vocal vault]

Sadge

Did I miss em or they still not up?

[weary pagoda]

I'm currently making them

[vocal vault]

Nice :3

[normal oyster]

Yea you missed them

[vocal vault]

Nice try

[normal oyster]

[weary pagoda]

:trolley:

[honest tulip]

The bot seems to hate u a lot

[weary pagoda]

right??

what did I even do

[honest tulip]

Is not about what u did, it’s about what u didn’t do ||(u didn’t turn into catgirl and uwu the bot||

[weary pagoda]

I DID THO

FOR TWO DAYS STRAIGHT

[normal oyster]

:v

Welp at least one is honest about it

[rocky sandal]

Wait, one of my entries survived

[weary pagoda]

someone didn't read the reminder

[muted island]

oops

🫣

[zinc lion]

damn round two ended so quick i couldn't even see the entries

[void bramble]

To the one dude who voted for my sprite, you a real hero

[muted island]

@weary pagoda hey the option to vote for D isnt here

[void bramble]

It is for me?

[weary pagoda]

🤔 I can see it too

Try to reload Discord?

[muted island]

oh what

ok lemme retry

[teal grove]

@weary pagoda where'd some of the entries go

[normal oyster]

I think this one is missing one

[teal grove]

E.g. Roserade/Gardevoir

[zinc lion]

woah people voted for my sprite. wacky

[normal oyster]

Nvm it aint

[weary pagoda]

To the semis

[muted island]

check the reminder :--(

[teal grove]

So wait

Yall kept the same system from last time

[weary pagoda]

For now, yes

[teal grove]

[weary pagoda]

what

[muted island]

the option to vote for D is there after reloading, thanks! sry 4 the false alarm 😵‍💫

[weary pagoda]

all good haha

[teal grove]

Skeln im gonna dm you sometime tomorrow

[weary pagoda]

the only good option we figured was to limit the allowed entries to 1 for the next contest, but there really was no better option here

[vocal vault]

Just checking, I can vote for how many sprites ?

[normal oyster]

But like the server is growing

[weary pagoda]

yeah that's the problem

[crude cedar]

Just 1

[silver merlin]

yeah we've got a system figured out for next time?? hopefully

[weary pagoda]

1 per bracket

[teal grove]

Dont worry, it wont be death threats

[silver merlin]

true

[normal oyster]

Yea that will be better

[vocal vault]

Got it sir 🫡

[silver merlin]

we will sacrifice all the people that are new

ez solution

[vocal vault]

Madam*

[weary pagoda]

🫡

[teal grove]

Actually ill just spoil the surprise

[normal oyster]

Cant wait for next contest vote

[teal grove]

Ive been working on a python program since today to automatically find a good bracket system based on the amount of entries

[zinc lion]

@silver merlin is only one entry allowed to win for one person? my other one didn't make it but that got first place (not mentioning due to rule 7)

[normal oyster]

So i can vote for anything but cliticlic

[silver merlin]

it went straight to the semis

hiding in the shadows again smh

[charred igloo]

when is discord adding like

polls

[teal grove]

It on average advances 50% of the entries to the next round each time and rn can handle up to 512 entries spread over six rounds

[ocean crown]

ctrl+r

[crude cedar]

Quick question: Are we allowed to talk about losers from the Previous Bracket(s) in a Contest?

[weary pagoda]

🤔 50% is maybe too much

[weary pagoda]

yep!

[vocal vault]

Since this is my first vote, how does brackets work?

[teal grove]

Still needs more optimisation that ill work on tomorrow, gamr is already aware of its existence

[balmy ibex]

wait wait

fill me in on how the brackets work again

[teal grove]

It's on average, depending on the votes it's up to 10% less or more, but yeah

[balmy ibex]

if a sprite comes first in a bracket it's in the semi-finals right?

[crude cedar]

In that case, I'm very glad to say that Roserade/Gardevoir was straight-up murdered in its Poll last Bracket

[weary pagoda]

When you select a reaction, a vote is registered
When we close the polls, all the registered votes display

(I just gave a silly answer didn't I)

[weary pagoda]

yep!

[balmy ibex]

one of mine is in the semi-finals holy fuck

[vocal vault]

So 4 in the semi final?

[weary pagoda]

There will be 8 (1st and 2nd) from this phase, and 19 from the Preliminaries. So there will be 27 in total in the semis

[normal oyster]

Oh its per bracket

[crude cedar]

Hm... So... Would that be 3 Polls of 9 Pokemon, or 9 polls of 3 Pokemon?

[vocal vault]

Also I can add whatever sprite I want to my game?

[normal oyster]

I thought its like everything compared tougheter

[grand tusk]

all 3 of mine knocked out, but it just shows me where I can improve when I compare it to the ones that made it

[weary pagoda]

Rather 3 polls haha

[grand tusk]

such is life in a tourney, I always got next time

[weary pagoda]

yes

[vocal vault]

Nice, because each bracket has at least 3 sprites worth adding imo

[weary pagoda]

I'd say all of them do lol

[vocal vault]

Can I ask something, bracket 2 B2 who's the body?

[grand tusk]

pretty sure most entries were already added to sprite gallery lol

[grand tusk]

I believe that one is a roserade/roserade

[weary pagoda]

yep!

Mega Roserade, basically

[grand tusk]

does this count as rule 7

[vocal vault]

Actually something came up to my mind, when I give vulpix growlithe fusion a fire stone, will both body and head evolve or just one

[misty acorn]

yes

[weary pagoda]

mentioning entries is fine, as long as you don't say what you think of these

[vocal vault]

Aka Stay neutral

😐

[weary pagoda]

that's right, do your best pokerface

😐

[grand tusk]

Hey guys, thought of this funny joke, probably hasn't been heard before

I hope roserade wins

Now laugh for me

[weary pagoda]

https://tenor.com/view/wheeze-laugh-gif-14359545

[limber venture]

What if roserade loses? What then?

[normal oyster]

Apocalypse probably

[odd garnet]

Welp
Glad I can relax on this round and start feeling stressed again tomorrow

[vocal vault]

When mega roserade win or lose did 1 or 2 roserade win or lose?

[limber venture]

2

[vocal vault]

2 L

[grand tusk]

2b2t

[crude cedar]

Shoutout to the four people who somehow wanted my roserade quagsire to win over the Golurk fusion.

[vocal vault]

@weary pagoda out of curiosity, is this the most participated challenge or someone else beat it?

[swift crow]

i am glad roserade was the choice, so many cute sprites

[charred igloo]

Thanks to this contest I know how what type of sprite I'll have to make for the next contests

starts sprite from scratch with the most colorful pokemon combination

[weary pagoda]

Oh no, we never had so many entries until then haha

Even the previous contest which had like 108 entries broke the record

Know that a few months ago, each contest had like 40 entries max

[vocal vault]

I wonder how many a lopunnny or gardevoir contest will get

[weary pagoda]

340

smth like that

[charred igloo]

I guess there were more people joining the server thanks to a tweet blowing up on twitter

[vocal vault]

That will turn every male in the discord into a miltank fusion

[charred igloo]

I joined around the time this tweet got popular too but I knew and played the game months ago, I just didn't know there was a community of spriters

[weary pagoda]

wasn't only that

[charred igloo]

👀

[ivory olive]

I think there's a big reason why this thing has blown up, lots of younger people remember that really old pokemon fusion website and after getting older, got a huge dosage of nostalgia, and given this game has existed for a while it was easy to reattach to

[vocal vault]

YouTube helped a lot

[charred igloo]

YouTube too

[weary pagoda]

a few popular streamers, youtubers and tiktokers played the game too and it already started blowing up at this time

[charred igloo]

I discovered the game thanks to youtube

[radiant forge]

Yeah I first saw this on YouTube a few months ago

[charred igloo]

It's nice that now the game has a high potential of getting custom sprites for each pokemon fusion

[vocal vault]

The game deserves it, it's a fresh take on a Pokémon game and the spriters are killing the competition

[vocal vault]

175000+ fusion is still a lot

[grand tusk]

we've had 2,490 things added to sprite gallery in february so far

[limber venture]

with current rates it'll be done in about 3 years iirc

[grand tusk]

it's certainly speeding up

[charred igloo]

I agree--

But like

[limber venture]

obviously it wont stay this fast forever

but its still a good chance

[charred igloo]

Considering over 100+ sprites are done per day (as I've been watching in spritework)

I know not all of them are sent to the gallery, but it's a small percentage it seems

[minor forge]

hey its not letting me react to the stuff in #contest-polls

[plush vale]

yeah they stopped free reacts because people kept using it when tehy werent supposed to even after beign directed not too and potentially biasing polls

or do you mean your reaction goes away cause that might just mean it's getting counted

[vocal vault]

My votes count since I can't see me?

Btw where can I find sprites I want to add some to my game

[swift crow]

yeah, i grab stuff from the sprite gallery all the time if it looks good

[vocal vault]

So you grab everything

[swift crow]

nah, just what i might use, i'm waiting for the pack for everything else

[vocal vault]

Ok imma ganna add a shit load of roserade sprites

[swift crow]

keep in mind that sadly roselia is very barren for sprites, so your evo line is likely gonna have at least one auto gen sprite

[grand tusk]

more like lameselia

[swift crow]

i like roselia 😢

sure, but i got no artistic talent so i can't make sprites

right now i'm still waiting on a kirlia/vibrava request, really want the gardevoir/flygon line to be complete since that sprite is so good

[vocal vault]

ok there are some sprites i want to add not in sprite gallery (where can i find zm)

[swift crow]

as in you have seen them, but they aren't in the gallery?

[vocal vault]

they are in poll but not gallery

[swift crow]

they may have been shared with the contest runners directly, or never got added to the gallery from the #1050404143807873157 channel

[vocal vault]

no luck :[

[swift crow]

which sprite are you looking for specifically?

[vocal vault]

me afraid of breaking rule 7 :c

[swift crow]

i think that only counts about discussing them, but if your worried you can just dm me it

[molten crater]

I cannot see the quarterfinals polls, is that normal?

[plush vale]

ctrl+R @molten crater

[molten crater]

AH

discord be trolling me

[livid tulip]

Which fusions were decided to be in quarters? The two with most votes in each poll?

[plush vale]

I think the top ones can go to semis sometimes

[slim palm]

bruh my sprite won prelims 9 but isnt in the quarters????

[plush vale]

read legit 1 message up mirc 🤦

[slim palm]

in my defense you don't come off as the most viable source

thank you, i did not see that

[misty acorn]

smh, do you guys not know that the best always comes last?

[slim palm]

ohh lmao i was looking in the polls channel

[odd garnet]

I want to make a short comic featuring my entries... But does that break rule 7? Or is it fine to do so?

[grand tusk]

probably wouldn't be able to post it here until the voting is done I assume

[odd garnet]

It's just gonna be them reacting to the results of the first round

[wind matrix]

wait until the voting's over to be safe

[odd garnet]

Btw where can I find all the rules?

[grand tusk]

#rules

[ivory olive]

Ok, whoever wins this contest, make the next ones theme blue

[cedar quest]
