[hollow gull]

Is secret spriter gonna wait until I'm done with finals? :P

[cedar quest]

[quartz locust]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-14359850

[misty acorn]

If you had asked us to wait until you have caught up to One Piece, we would have considered it

[hollow gull]

well whoever I get paired with might get their sprite a little fashionably late

[quartz locust]

Tomate is correct, yes. 🙂

[hollow gull]

one piece is so good I'm at Punk Hazard

[quartz locust]

One Piece > All things that are not One Piece. 🙂

[quartz locust]

Oh nice, you're not far behind me then. 😄

[misty acorn]

You're finally getting it

[hollow gull]

I put it down to focus on school though :'(

[quartz locust]

You'll love the part where the crew all gets cholera and dies. 😃

And then it finishes. The fans just write fanfiction and assume it's canon now. 😛

[hollow gull]

I'm gonna be glued to Crunchyroll over break

[hollow gull]

||Brook||

Luffy wouldn't die of cholera if I understand his powers correctly

I got a tiny bit of whatever is going on with him spoiled

sadge

[quartz locust]

That's why it was such a surprise. 😮

[quartz locust]

They explained it in Fishman Island, kind of. 😅

[hollow gull]

iirc

can't wait to find out who ||joy boy|| is

saddest one piece moment?

[quartz locust]

||He essentially has antivenom in his system because of the treatment Ivankov gave him.|| 😅

[hollow gull]

don't say when the crew got cholera

[quartz locust]

https://tenor.com/view/chouchou-one-piece-chouchou-one-piece-shushu-one-piece-shushu-gif-27132886

[hollow gull]

oh yea cool

[hollow gull]

that guys from Naruto I thought?

[quartz locust]

No? 😂

[hollow gull]

or is that the mayor's dog from that buggy fight

[quartz locust]

It's the Mayor's dog from that Buggy fight. 😉

[hollow gull]

idk what the wink means

[quartz locust]

Nor do I.

https://tenor.com/view/thats-the-mystery-velma-scooby-doo-velma-scooby-doo-scooby-doo-and-the-witchs-ghost-gif-23861772

[misty acorn]

Did someone mention Buggy???

[subtle moss]

Hey, so, I'm at chapter 107 of the Manga

[misty acorn]

You get 1 week

[quartz locust]

And remember, you can stop at the point when the gang gets cholera. Key narrative moment. 🙂

[subtle moss]

I don't know what that entails, I wasn't kidding about where I am.

I'm not planning skipping anything

but it's been weeks since I last read something

[quartz locust]

Well basically, they get cholera, they die, then the manga ends. 😄

Fans have taken to continuing it to this day. 🙂

[subtle moss]

Ah, I see.

[misty acorn]

Btw Blaq do you know anything about the current arc? Just from existing online? Curious 👀

[quartz locust]

I don't even know what it's called. 😂

The only things I know about later arcs are ||Kin'emon isn't Momonosuke's real dad||, ||Kuma is Bonney's real dad||, and ||Usopp said "let's go to Elbaf" recently||. 😅

Whereas I knew about ||Ace's death|| pretty much straight away.

[misty acorn]

That's some funnily random things to know

~~Especially considering that one of them is false ~~

||or is it?||

[quartz locust]

The Wiki told me two of them. 😂

[misty acorn]

The wiki can be a stinky liar too

[signal reef]

One of them is definetely wrong in the saddest way possible 😎

[steel vortex]

Guys, One Piece discussion goes in #spriter-general-lounge 🤓 /j

[cedar quest]

One Piece is an event

[plucky crest]

The event is new chapter release

[steel vortex]

Ok but Pirate themed contest when?

[limpid sphinx]

ocean contest

[misty acorn]

Pirate clown contest

[buoyant ore]

Christmas contest?

[cursive brook]

No

[buoyant ore]

[sly shuttle]

#spriter-general-lounge message Milian Royale

[steel vortex]

They did that already smh

[sly gorge]

I'm guessing we're gonna be getting the contest results on saturday

or maybe friday if we're lucky

[steel vortex]

I didn't vote yet sorry

[sly gorge]

all I'm hoping for is that I don't score low

but eh, I'm used to being disappointed

[steel vortex]

What you make?

[sly gorge]

these 3

[steel vortex]

I like the Haunter and Gengar has a nice pose (if that's a middle finger you might get docked )

[tulip tusk]

I like how there are at least 4 different gengar meloetta fusions

[sly gorge]

it all started with Genshii trying to spite me

[steel vortex]

Oop

[sly gorge]

then somebody else made one

and then some other guy

pretended I bullied him into making a thourth one

(+ he "borrowed" my middle finger idea)

[tulip tusk]

now I want to make one to add onto the joke

[sly gorge]

I mean if we're talking personal preferences I might

middle fingers aren't against rule 2 though

[sly gorge]

ngl I think out of the three Gastly/Meloetta might be my favorite

[steel vortex]

Rule #1

[tulip tusk]

one of my meloetta fusions has an outstretched hand I could have given it a middle finger...

[steel vortex]

Ah that's fair, the gas hair is neat

[steel vortex]

[tulip tusk]

the design for the fusion is such a mess but I wanted to make a gremlin and by GOD I could not be stopped

[sly gorge]

although if I could I'd swap out one of my entries for this

but it's hard to read so uhh idk

[steel vortex]

All 4 of them wow

[sly gorge]

I mean I just sent it to proof that those can exist

[steel vortex]

No yeah I'm teasing lol

[sly gorge]

if anything, your argument for me losing points might exclusively apply to when a judge takes the middle finger personally

and honestly I'd love to see at least a single comment from a judge saying something like "that wasn't very nice :("

I think it'd be hilarious

[steel vortex]

Ig if they;re not from the US or countries with it, then yeah it's moot

[silent lantern]

Isn’t the middle finger kind of universal at this point?

[sly gorge]

it is

and if I went with the european equivalant (the crossed arms one) then only judges from europe will get offended lol

[steel vortex]

True, I have seen places where it means something different or nothing though, sometimes the thumb or even pinky is the "middle" finger

[sly gorge]

although middle finger is funnier

[steel vortex]

But yeah internet age lol

[sly gorge]

• they had that arm cross removed from Mario Kart for a reason

[silent lantern]

Pokémon had it too

[steel vortex]

Wait I'm sorry crossing your arms is seen as rude?

[sly gorge]

this particular arm cross

is seen as offensive in europe

[steel vortex]

O h

I see

[sly gorge]

I don't know what it means but when my mom used it once on me I got intimidated immediately

[steel vortex]

Thought you meant just criss cross
Lmao

[sly gorge]

so maybe it's like a threat

idk

I'm Polish

just because Poland is in europe doesn't mean I get everything

[stiff viper]

It's kinda a middle finger equivalent in Italy from what I know

[steel vortex]

Am stinky America

Oooh

[silent lantern]

It’s just an F U.

[sly gorge]

oh yeah

it does kinda look like a middle fingor

[steel vortex]

One giant finger

[sly gorge]

https://tenor.com/view/nikocado-avocado-rage-angry-gif-23510601

me to americans

(i (don't) respect them)

[steel vortex]

I don;t even eat fast food like that, he needs to stop

[cursive brook]

I have seen people who take up like almost half the hallway

[silent lantern]

lmao I’m a Texan so… Assume away. I’m pretty sure 90% of what you say will be wrong tho.

[stiff viper]

Also unrelated: How does voting work for events? like is there a specific place to do it or specific people who vote?

[vestal silo]

We fat, we stupid, and for some crazy reason we are proud of it

[sly gorge]

'Muricans popularoized cuh'in ohff boxer tayles and aeh dohn't foind daat very noice...
(that was me pretending to have an australian accent)

[cursive brook]

That’s the south

[sly gorge]

No I was pretending to be australian

Aussies talk like that

[cursive brook]

Oh

[sly gorge]

they also say 'naur'

[silent lantern]

Texas is called American Australia sometimes.

[sly gorge]

I call Poland the 'Ohio of Europe'

[cursive brook]

Why are we discussing racial stereotypes

[open folio]

Mostly staff, sprite managers, and event managers vote iirc

[sly gorge]

RACIAL?!

?!?!?!?!

[silent lantern]

Though we can tolerate spices.

[sly gorge]

I'M NOT RACIST?!??!

[vestal silo]

Technically geographical stereotypes

[sly gorge]

I'm Polish.

[cursive brook]

Ok

[cursive brook]

Calm down

[sly gorge]

if I was discussing racial stereotypes I'd be speaking like your average black stereotype

[cursive brook]

I wasn’t trying to call you racist

[sly gorge]

which I'm not

because I'm not racist.

I'm Polish.

[cursive brook]

ok

[sly gorge]

I figured as much I just like overreacting

[vestal silo]

Annnnnyway

[silent lantern]

Anyways, any other Texas questions?

[vestal silo]

Lc polls when?

[sly gorge]

why is Texas a red state and can you change anything about it

[cursive brook]

How many guns do you carry around?

Do people threaten you with them?

[stiff viper]

Thanks!

[steel vortex]

Anyone got northeast US questions
I got family in Texas, don't visit much though too hot and scary lol

[silent lantern]

None, there’s no need. I come from Dallas, it’s the not scary part of Texas.

[vestal silo]

Yeah throw the New Jersey questions out here. I'll tell you now, all the stereotypes are true

[steel vortex]

This is a #off-topic kinda convo ngl my fault for starting it, I think?

[vestal silo]

I thought this was off topic? With all the one piece talk in here

[sly gorge]

Throw me a Poland question and I'll try to answer it to my best ability

[steel vortex]

Y'know what true

Continue

[sly gorge]

is South Park's depiction of New Jersey correct?

[steel vortex]

Route 1 or 18

[silent lantern]

Texas is a Republican, conservative state, and it’s hard to change that considering the size of the state.

[steel vortex]

Texas is larger than some countries and it always astounds me

[vestal silo]

Totally. We attempted to take over the whole country and were only stopped by Bin Laden

[sly gorge]

Most US states are larger than Poland lmfao

[steel vortex]

Lmao

[cursive brook]

Texas has a greater chance of becoming independent again than its politics changing

[silent lantern]

Yup, unfortunately.

[sly gorge]

ok but is Texas as bad as Utah

when it comes to like

how they treat the LGBT

[steel vortex]

What's wrong with Utah? Idk the midwest tbh

[sly gorge]

ok maybe that question wasn't appropriate

[vestal silo]

More often on 1

[steel vortex]

mmmm

[silent lantern]

It really depends where in Texas you’re talking about.

[cursive brook]

Idk about most if america other than the north east

[sly gorge]

Heard Utah cracked down a lot on letting trans people get medical attention and shit

[steel vortex]

Let's gooo! NE rep

[steel vortex]

Ouch

[sly gorge]

in general

cause like

the only places in Texas that I know about are Wacho and Austin

[silent lantern]

Texas isn’t great about rights for the LGBTQ, but Austin I believe is one of the more liberal areas.

[steel vortex]

Although yeah I don't wanna get "political" in #event-general even if basic human rights shouldn't be politiclal you know how people are

[sly gorge]

yeah i getcha is my faukt....

[sly gorge]

that's both good AND bad to hear

[steel vortex]

No worries, I enjoy convos like this when everyone's civil tbh

[sly gorge]

good because austin liberal !!

and bad because

[silent lantern]

Dallas is probably one of the most liberal.

[cursive brook]

I have heard some places don’t allow you to do that shit till ur 18 or something

[sly gorge]

me no understand why people no like lgbt

is like

let people live man

[steel vortex]

Come to NJ we love gay people at least idk they haven't killed me yet and we have pride flags downtown

[sly gorge]

like taking hormones?

[silent lantern]

Our government is ran by old people. That’s why

[cursive brook]

Something like that

I didn’t read very far

[vestal silo]

NJ really should've taken over the cou try by now

[sly gorge]

personally I have my own opinions regarding that but I'll keep them to myself just so I don't become 'villain of the hour' again

[cursive brook]

No way it is bro

[steel vortex]

People are TERRIFIED of men kissing each other, it's like a nuke to them most evil geneva convention crime ever smh

[steel vortex]

If we clean up a little

[cursive brook]

I live in a swing state so I hear mixed perspectives

[silent lantern]

But hey, it’s not Florida.

[steel vortex]

Lmao

[sly gorge]

funniest part is that most of the 'dark humor' people that exclusively make fun of minorities to fuel their bigotry are the same type of people to fold completely upon hearing a religion joke

[steel vortex]

Ah

[tulip tusk]

people are too afraid to admit that they could or their society could be wrong that they'd rather hurt everyone else

[cursive brook]

Florida is hot

[silent lantern]

And everything you hear about Florida is true btw

[sly gorge]

I mean ig

[steel vortex]

occassionally

[steel vortex]

I have a Florida friend, and yeah it is all true xD

[sly gorge]

I remember asking a close-ish friend of mine about transgenders and shit

and he had some very bad opinions :(

[cursive brook]

I only went to florida for disney world and felt like I was gonna die of heat stroke, no wonder people there are so crazy

[steel vortex]

Humans when we defy the laws of nature as we've been doing for the past forever:

[steel vortex]

Mmmm mosquitos

[tulip tusk]

dark humor is the fucking worst and it's always picked up by teens online and ruins their perception on the world because they're being fed bigotry through "it's a joke"

[steel vortex]

True

[silent lantern]

Texas also has a really cool law now that if you kill a child’s parents in a DUI or anything like that, you also owe child support.

[sly gorge]

I mean dark humor at this point is used to fuel bigotry

true dark humor doesn't exist anymore

because black pills latched onto it

[cursive brook]

I can confirm it is just to say outrageous shit will the illusion of no consequences

[sly gorge]

I still think there DOES exist real dark humor, but I can agree that just saying the n-word isn't a punchline

like for dark humor to work there has to be a punchline

that goes for all humor in general

[steel vortex]

Yeah 'jaded/out of touch', they think the funny punchline is to just say a slur and everyone claps istg

[sly gorge]

most of these fucking blackpilled and redpilled teens think just saying the n-word is a good enough punchline

[tulip tusk]

I fell down the alt right pipeline (like most of the queer people I know) and now there's a new one formed from youtube shorts and that's really concerning

[sly gorge]

I had a friend who thought just saying the n-word hard r was funny

and he has

some of the worst fucking opinions I've ever heard of

like genuinely bigotry

all because he thinks "they're weird"

[steel vortex]

Why he your friend

[cursive brook]

[sly gorge]

he was

not is anymore

[steel vortex]

What did I do

[steel vortex]

Ah I see

[cursive brook]

Wtf is this now why is this becoming serious

[sly gorge]

well he still dms me every once in a while but when he does it's to express some horseshit opinions

[silent lantern]

I mean like, dang.

[steel vortex]

That's a block

[silent lantern]

Wait, do we have any English people in here?

[sly gorge]

like a few days ago he dm'd me a picture of the guy he hates and said "look! he's emo now! he's emo now! he likes skibidi toilet!!"

[steel vortex]

Yes? Or you mean UK?

[sly gorge]

the guy just had grown out hair

and a black shirt

[steel vortex]

He need help

[sly gorge]

like the guy got his brain fried from watching Andrew Tate

[silent lantern]

Specifically UK, since I’m Irish/German (moved here before WWII)

[cursive brook]

[sly gorge]

that was legit my reaction

I tried telling him "what makes him emo he just has a black shirt"

[steel vortex]

Ah, then we do have a few around, I don't think here in the convo tho ahaha

[sly gorge]

then he kept rambling on about it

so I didn't even bother trying to reason with him

[silent lantern]

Then I can say it: the UK cooks like it hates food.

[sly gorge]

like I talk to a questionable crowd of people on discord and the guy stands out like a sore thumb

he just hates things for the sake of hating things

anyway uhh

enough about my personal life

and misadventures

I gotta go to sleep

got mock exams tomorrow

specifically math

[silent lantern]

Goodnight

[sly gorge]

is fun

guten nacht!

try changing the subject to be on topic again!!

just so the mods don't find out what we've been talking about!!

[silent lantern]

Anyway, when does Secret Santa start and how will we receive our prompt?

[steel vortex]

[steel vortex]

Should be the turn of next week, and an announcement will happen

[tulip tusk]

finally submitted my request and hoping I don't get double rayquaza as a request /hj

[steel vortex]

I forgot if they dm you your prompt

for the records

[silent lantern]

Also, Australia claims to not be British in any way, but they uh… they’ve got some bland food.

[steel vortex]

Wdym I love sprinkles on buttered bread

[steel vortex]

suffer with us

[silent lantern]

Also, they also don’t seem to have a spice tolerance. tf you mean spicy candy can’t be good

[tulip tusk]

if I'm honest I'd just make it NOT cool and instead just make it one of those two headed snakes

which are cool as fuck but

[steel vortex]

Could be due to the fact that eating spice in a hot af place would be awful xD that and idk any native spice plants from Australia?

[steel vortex]

Ok but that's cool

[silent lantern]

The funny thing is, it does have native spices.

[steel vortex]

O h

Well then my first point stands

That's cool though, I should research them more

[silent lantern]

Also, spice is very much loved here in the southern states, even Arizona.

[steel vortex]

Oh definitely, and that is a point, I chalked it up to Mesoamerican influence
But yeah, maybe indigenous Australians have spicy food though :O?

I could ask my aquaintence, they'd know more

[tulip tusk]

I think this was already answered but what will be done if somebody doesn't do a sprite (without any reason)

[steel vortex]

From what I've heared, a punishment that scars their entire career and person

[tulip tusk]

yeah fair

sorry you didn't do secret spriter? say goodbye to your knees

[steel vortex]

xD

Probably, GamR hitman

[sterile pasture]

When that person goes to sleep that night, GamR will be waiting under their bed

[plucky arch]

yall, yall do the requests

GamR, he,, hes gone mad

hes gone crazy with power

hes cooking up some evil shit

nobody can stop him

Frogman tried

but he had to go into witness protection

thats why he has the new name

please for your own safety do the requests

[sly shuttle]

He’s making a list, checking it twice.

[cursive brook]

What happened this seems very important

Just to be safe post ur wips first

[steel vortex]

GamR is coming for you, those who do not return the gift of spriting

[toxic grotto]

is the punishment like some role that people can ping relentlessly to remind the spriter with the absence of sprite of their sins?

[lone anchor]

So will the requests be given out on the eighth?

[cursive brook]

for the day of me might . To the spriter we must smite

[mellow wagon]

anyways who voluntiers to fuck around and find out what happens?

[cursive brook]

In the Day of world night. we shall have a worldy fight

In the day which we may. All their souls shall be dismay

For without sprite our world is a place of fright

For With the scythe shall seize. You will feel a chilling breeze.

With the scythe of death. The blade foils all breath.

And with the scream of fright, all will be right before the night of smite

The end

[haughty haven]

what happens if i hypothetically broke my hands or smth before i could make the sprite

[plucky arch]

if you told gamr about it youd be spared

[haughty haven]

gotcha

[mellow wagon]

what if I fell into a coma?

[haughty haven]

what happens to the request then?

[cursive brook]

He hires a hitman while you sleep

Wait no fate worse than death would be better

[bright crow]

makes you reapply for spriter

[errant yarrow]

and you can only become a spriter again after finishing 3 requests from Gamr perfectly

[late sequoia]

Those requests consisting of the Pokemon with the least amount of fusions done

[bright crow]

monferno and klang

[limpid sphinx]

you still having good feets 🫦

[haughty haven]

[raven pulsar]

what

[lusty pewter]

wtf did I missed

[plucky arch]

https://tenor.com/view/muppetwiki-muppet-wiki-muppet-muppets-kermit-gif-13282760728630259313

[lusty pewter]

getting nervous of the secret spriter

wait quick question, can you ask for feedback in spritework?

for the secret spriter I mean

or can you ask for feedback but can't say that it's from secret spriter?

[bright crow]

you can ask for feedback

its pretty much only secret spriter in name, no rules about hiding it

maybe don't ping the person who its for tho

[dense jackal]

The spriter doesn't get to know that anyway 😛

[lusty pewter]

hm... alr then, I was asking cuz if you post it in spritework someone could just look up their secret spriter request and see who likely sprite their request

[limpid sphinx]

mark as spoiler

put the pokemon names and secret santa in the title

probably is enough

[uncut shadow]

Todays the end of the requests?

[lusty pewter]

maybe?

[lusty pewter]

hrm... ig that's prob the best you can do to avoid accidental spoiler

[uncut shadow]

Nope, thats wierd it says in 2 days

[lusty pewter]

alr, I'll go with that then

[uncut shadow]

Even tho its the 7th

[lusty pewter]

ah lol so there's still time to add/change requests

[floral vessel]

But also like
Why are you looking up your own request lol like at that point it's not an accidental spoiler, you kinda just did that to yourself

[lusty pewter]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'm not other people so I can't say

we are on the internet after all who knows what others will do

[floral vessel]

If you spoiled your request by discord searching it that’s kinda on you at that point pffffttt

[limpid sphinx]

im gonna just mark my sprite as spoiler when posting to spritework

and put secret santa in the title

so if the requester see that, its their problem 😂

they wanted to so i can do nothing

[steady pasture]

Decided not to participate in the end. Really don't want to get stressed working on non humanoids on the high chance i get one

[lusty pewter]

do it, risk it all :)

[cursive brook]

2 days till we get our requests, right?

How will we receive them?

[tulip tusk]

carrier pigeon

[toxic grotto]

by mail

[cursive brook]

Time to get all the addresses of everyone in the server rq

[toxic grotto]

they're gonna run to our houses, knock on our doors aggresively (maybe even break them), then leave the mail that says "sprite this [insert fusion name]" and run off

if we don't sprite it they return and break more than our doors

[limpid sphinx]

sms

[lusty pewter]

nah they just gonna hack our computers and put a notepad file in somewhere of the request

be sure to check your whole computer to see if the file is sent or not :)

[uncut shadow]

there will be a massege that says "you have [countdown] to sprite the following request [said fusion]"
If you dont finish the request at time your house will automatically blow up

[limpid sphinx]

Pokemon Infinite Terrorism

[tulip tusk]

it will come to you in a dream...

[lusty pewter]

don't threaten me with a good time 😎

[crude cedar]

I forgot what I requested F

[thin dove]

so there's not a set date that all the gifts get released, right? it's just "release when ready"?

honestly same lmao

[crude cedar]

Lol

[dull mortar]

when you submit for secret spriter does it just reload the page basically or

[thin dove]

i'm not sure what you mean

[dull mortar]

I clicked the submit button, it loaded for a half second, and then I was still on the submit form but it says "you can only submit to this form once" at the top

I think I succeeded in submitting and it's just weird but I'm not sure

[dense jackal]

hit the edit button to see if it says the right thing

[lusty pewter]

people are forgetting their own request lol

ig that could be a good thing since they can give feedback on any secret spriter post on spritework and still wouldn't know what they be getting XD

[dull mortar]

there isn't an edit button--

[lusty pewter]

there should be one

on the bottom there

[dull mortar]

yeah that screen didn't pop up, but I refreshed it and resubmitted and it finally did

[lusty pewter]

well ig that works XD

[uncut shadow]

he has spoken

[dull mortar]

heehoo

[lusty pewter]

meet the engineer theme plays

[magic sail]

hey gamr can you do between 8th and 9 so i have more time to do it

he will totally listen to me

[cedar quest]

Considering submissions end late night on the 8th, def not then

[lusty pewter]

I hope I got a fusion request that I can make awesome looking. I don't want to just give them a recolor sprite as fusion if I can XD

[magic sail]

rip

[thick timber]

I just hope I dont get something completely cursed lol

[sly shuttle]

You should practice with Kyurem and Necrozma bodies, then your secret Santa sprite will be super easy in comparison.

[vestal silo]

i may die laughing if @flint lintel gets a pawniard request

i also hope i get something i can actually do justice to

[slender thunder]

Inb4 pineco/reshiram

[vestal silo]

tbh that could be cool. giant pinecone tail

[slender thunder]

But hard

[vestal silo]

very

[toxic grotto]

I made 126

[vestal silo]

also, if im not mistaken, the bigger issue was the amount of individual participants, not how many each made

[uncut shadow]

ok so it seems i had my turn of events confused lol

sorry for being stupid, it was a long time ago, i dont ever remember what i did at that time

[haughty haven]

that’s still insane lmao

[hollow grove]

https://tenor.com/view/rhobh-lisa-rinna-who-said-gif-13433385

[slow gyro]

I am speed

[thin dove]

i was helping out other teams at the time otherwise i would have made more

it was a nice exercise to try making some custom bases, even if they're not the best

[uncut shadow]

Whats even the issue with the huge delays? I want to help

I get its alot but like, if ill dedicate a week (lets say x mas) i think i could tackle the problem (maybe idk, could try 🤷‍♂️)

[late sequoia]

See here for why its taking a while

[uncut shadow]

Understandable

i mean even if i wanted i dont think im allowed to since i participate

[slow gyro]

LC when?

I want my 115 dollars

[crisp cargo]

can't even back out of the contest anymore because it'd technically be a crime

this is why entries should have been limited to 1/2

[sly gorge]

Roc' n Roll contest results when

I wanna see how hard I lost!!

[open folio]

I wonder if we’ll get 5 spotlights this time? One for each of Rockruff, LRock Day, LRock Night, Melo-A and Melo-P

[haughty haven]

we usually dont get extra spotlights if a contest includes pre-evos no?

i'd assume it'd be just two :P dunno tho

[limpid sphinx]

youre probably right x)

we never had one spotlight for each mon of a entire line lol

[haughty haven]

yeahh, i do kinda like the spotlights tho, it'd be funny if there were more

[limpid sphinx]

frr

could be fun

since its not like a real award, could fit more sprites fr

[haughty haven]

yea i think it's nice lol, gives more people of differing skill levels a chance to shine

[vestal silo]

And sprites without sparkles too ✨️

[cursive brook]

Just limit the number of participants

And have them sign up before hand

[uncut shadow]

Hey so i know this may be a weird suggestion but can we have a secret spriter thread on #1110678444896964628 ? Like everyone could see everyone's progress on the sprite requests? I feel like it could be really fun

Like a team for secret spriter?

[lusty pewter]

that would be interesting

tho it will be active for like... 2-3 weeks per year XD

[uncut shadow]

they can close the thread eventually

[dense jackal]

I wouldn't personally use it. Chance to see my request (early) would be way up! 😅

[uncut shadow]

whats wrong with seeing your request's progress? you cant say its yours anyways

[lusty pewter]

they don't want to ruin the surprise probably

[uncut shadow]

fair enough

[dense jackal]

I'm not going to be devastated or anything if I see it (probably not even disappointed)
But there have been a lot of people talking about ways to avoid spoilers/spoiling both as gift spriters, and receivers
And to me it just seems like avoiding it 'til it's done would be the ideal outcome

[cursive brook]

I can’t wait to get the requests

[junior axle]

Is there a plan on when the requests will be given out?

[lusty pewter]

check #event-announcements

[fathom violet]

What is DM?

[lusty pewter]

direct message

they'll contact you directly through discord

[cursive brook]

Somewhat

[dense jackal]

It's more like a guideline really

[fathom violet]

Thanks

[cursive brook]

Are they gonna come all at once or are they gonna come sparaticly?

[plucky arch]

prolly all at once

or well

"start and then keep sending until theyre finished but itll prolly take like 2 hours"

speaking of 8 hours left to submit

[plucky arch]

honestly i wouldnt expect any sooner then a Week after submissions close

cause we gotta do a bit of work on it

and there are like 275 submissions

which is, i think 3x every previous year combined

[elder venture]

I thought they were to be handed out this weekend/early this coming week? Or have plans changed?

[plucky arch]

im sayin a week so we dont say "this weekend" and then it turns out longer, and then get bugged about it

[lusty pewter]

am excited to see what I get :)

[plucky arch]

if i way a week itll be a nice surprise if it comes first

[lusty pewter]

plz be smth fun to fuse praying sounds

[elder venture]

Oh safe decision. Either way, it's chill.

[dense jackal]

You might want to tell the rest of your team 😉
#event-announcements message

[plucky arch]

"team"

that requires coordinatoon

[toxic grotto]

I hope I don't get something like zapdos or infernape

[haughty haven]

how are there so many more than prev years?

[plucky arch]

server grew massively this year

[haughty haven]

ah

[plucky arch]

we had 22k around this time last year

iirc

we are current almost 500k

[haughty haven]

Jesus lmao

[lusty pewter]

bruh that's almost 25x more people in just one year XD

[haughty haven]

Oh was it the popularity spike from youtube?

[lusty pewter]

is it cuz of the new pokemon being put into the game?

or maybe that yeah

[plucky arch]

nah

the game got super popular at the beginning of this year

[lusty pewter]

hm... wonder why

[elder venture]

I know it certainly picked up spring/summer, it appeared a fair bit on Youtube. That's how I discovered it.

[plucky arch]

i joined like

right before the big wave

a lot of people joined december last year, after submissions closed, but wven then

2021 SS was like 21 people

and 2022 was 75

[haughty haven]

I think I’ve vaguely known about it’s existence for a while but my little brother found stuff on it on youtube around the beginning of summer so i set it up for him (which is how I got into it too lol)

[lusty pewter]

I def got interested cuz of the youtube shorts of people showcasing some fusion (iirc a sprite of mine even got showcased)

[elder venture]

It must be quite a pain for moderators now with that sudden influx. But probably nice seeing all the customs coming in now.

[lusty pewter]

XD

it's def fun seeing a fun community grow but at the same time yeah it can be a pain to those who manages them

[elder venture]

When I found out they're accepting custom sprites, my 2012 makin splices in the Pokefarm forum heart awoke from a deep slumber.

[near horizon]

i always forgot i've been on the serv longer than you x)

[plucky arch]

im relatively new

[near horizon]

i'm relatively old i think

x)

[sterile pasture]

I found it through a PointCrow VOD and started playing

Then when my faves evolved and didn't have custom sprites, I put on my artist hat and came here

[near horizon]

me it was through Fildrong playthrough (french youtuber)

[lusty pewter]

I joined cuz I want to see the new fusion sprites

[cursive brook]

You’ve been here a year

[lusty pewter]

cuz I remembered there was a game that focuses of fusion but it's all generator fusion so it was a real deterrent for me

[open folio]

I found out about IF at the beginning of the year, then started spriting around the time the new mon announcement happened

[lusty pewter]

I joined, then kinda psudo-left (aka I didn't talk with the community much) then I come back cuz I heard meloetta gonna be in the game and I love my lil'idol mon :3

[cursive brook]

I got here because of all the shorts about it

[obsidian goblet]

from what i remember

i joined to submit a sprite i made for my playthrough

[vestal silo]

i learned of the game from Ray Navarez's vod on youtube. i dont even frequent him but stumbled across his playthrough

[urban tulip]

I learned about this from a friend real recently

[cyan gull]

I learned about it through the IF ROM hack discord

I joined the server in 2021 and left if I recall correctly

[bright crow]

I found it through alpharad here

Joined after playing it for myself

[floral vessel]

I find it funny that so many people found out about this game through streamers and I’m just like. my friends played it and one of my friends sprited some stuff so I was like ooh that’s cool I want to see the cool art

[limpid sphinx]

🎶🐺🏆❓

[cloud solstice]

after the secret spriters contest results

[cursive brook]

Yay

[errant yarrow]

same, around 2013 or so I was making splices of trainer sprites for PokeMMO for myself and people on one of the forums

[plush vale]

I first saw on munching orange channel when he was getting just a few cusotm sprites made for his guys, was also funny when he mentioned artichoke which I made first meme for when much younger

[silver merlin]

(i miss you 2021)

[graceful plank]

I learnt about the game from a youtuber I watch religiously (sam streamer) starting a playthrough of it. that was almost a year ago now, just before the big boom

[fierce flume]

I thought this was just a content farm for Tik Toks and Youtube shorts, then I found out there was an actual game and community.

[limpid sphinx]

ok but wheres the results

[steel vortex]

Idk when I learned about PIF, but I played it years ago, maybe like 5-4 years ago? Wasen't in the server til recently

I thnk cause I used the japeal site and somehow found a game using those sprites

[cedar quest]

Just making sure everyone is done voting

[limpid sphinx]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/737765817474744350/1156404545220517888/goodnight.gif?ex=655d5ba8&is=654ae6a8&hm=10394e537351d7a838da12af1441554b93e2319c3fc40af5eeb2208dcec3ffe8&

i learned about PIF when i was playing a lot of different roms or fangames in february

i was fired from a old job and i was with a lot of free time

[lusty pewter]

does this mean we'll get to see the contest result and get secret spriter request at the same time :o

[tulip tusk]

I forgot about the contest due to secret spriter

[sly shuttle]

Were you able to make all 3 submissions?

[lusty pewter]

I did, don't know about others tho

[tulip tusk]

yeah, one of mine is getting a low vote due to lacking recognizability and I know it but I like the other two

[lusty pewter]

I think mine went out well, got a lot of feedback for my 3rd submission and did a lot of edit on it

the 1st fusion is a bit bland but I think it still good enough for a fusion imo :3

[tulip tusk]

I got a bit of feedback for my sprites which was neat

[cedar quest]

Pretty much

I normally not up this late, but I'm working on stuff for tomorrow

[lusty pewter]

[uncut shadow]

Has anyone got a request already? Curious

[cedar quest]

Not yet no, it's currently 1:18 AM in the morning over here

I am currently double checking that I inputted everything in correctly

The list is random, but it doesn't give me an easy way to move things over

[torpid osprey]

Excited to start on the Secret Sprite soon

[limpid sphinx]

please god not a tiny body mon 😭

[elder venture]

Good news! You have been selected to get your request early. You get Cleffa/togepi

Actually wait people are getting creative with cleffa. I retract that.

Geodude/togepi. Have fun.

[limpid sphinx]

https://tenor.com/view/munsonated-gif-26549705

[crisp cargo]

https://tenor.com/view/the-sound-of-poggers-gif-18739714

[astral niche]

I Hope to be assigned to a secret sprite soon

[astral niche]

Better air/nothing that fusion gonna be 🔥

[rough frost]

I was like "togepi geodude could be pretty cool actually" and realized it's the opposite

[sterile pasture]

geodude/togepi is just a rock

[elder venture]

Heh. If I were a tad more evil, I might have put it as my request.

[astral niche]

I got the sprite to do , I never worked with any of the mons so it's gonna be a gun ride

[rough frost]

secret Krampus next year

do the most with the least

[dull mortar]

event that's like secret santa but then only one fusion gets picked and everyone has to do it

[neat viper]

atp i dont even remember what i requested

[astral niche]

ah yes 1 billion alt for the same fusion

[dull mortar]

yeah :y

[daring barn]

When will we get the secret spriter?

[lusty pewter]

next month :)

[daring barn]

oh

I'm afraid of forgetting about it TmT

[astral niche]

so I'm working on the sprite , it's looking weird as if right now

[open folio]

Hopefully we get another event announcement once they’re all sent out

Because I also might forget

[crude cedar]

I'm unsure if I put the correct name in or not

[dense jackal]

That'd be really funny though. Just as a way to check how robust the game is 😛

[lusty pewter]

they should add "I'm forgetful" role and have a bot dm them every hour on any IF reminder they have

[crude cedar]

For my thing in Secret Spriter I mean

[thin dove]

you joke but that actually sounds like an interesting contest idea

[cedar quest]

There will be

[thin dove]

and a lot of those will be the new mons anyway because well, ya know

that's the nature of new mons

[cedar quest]

Also: Discord thinks I'm a robot now

Making me do a captcha before every new DM

[neat viper]

you arent?

[crude cedar]

GordoGamR, did I accidentally put the Wrong Name?

[cedar quest]

No ||🤖||

Technically yes, but you're still on the sheet an able to be found

So ur good

[crude cedar]

Thank you

[neat viper]

i didnt know wether or not to put @ before my name

so i didnt :3

[crude cedar]

That makes a lot of my Uncertainty go away

[astral niche]

I didn't put @ but was still found

[rough frost]

the best things are done, at least in part, in jest

[thin moat]

Hello everybody 🙂

[astral niche]

hi

[thin dove]

i'd go look up the mons with the least fusions right now but daena.me seems to be having errors on that front

[steel vortex]

As usual Discord/Clyde being a dick lol

Daena updating oo

[astral niche]

probably the new mons or like baby mons

[dull mortar]

pfff

[thin moat]

I am stupid, I got a new phone and can't get into my normal account, @olive echo . I'm gonna be away from my computer for a week, so I can't see my Secret Santa DM. Can I get it sent to this account or am I SOL

[thin dove]

if i was ever a contest manager please stop screaming i'd do a Weirdos contest

[steel vortex]

Ping GamR so they know

[thin moat]

@cedar quest can you help a brother out?

[steel vortex]

They'll just send it to your working account

[uncut shadow]

if i ever when ill become a sprite manager you better know im going to make the most enjoyable contests

[dull mortar]

and no one will complain about them

[steel vortex]

I think you mean when I become an event manager ahem

[tulip tusk]

how long do yall think it'd take for everyone to get their request (not a serious question just out of curiosity)

[dull mortar]

seven days

[elder venture]

Are you the only one sending DMs? I worry sending out that many may result in a temporary ban or something alike :\ I don't know how the system works exactly, but I have heard of accounts getting flagged and spamming so take care.

[uncut shadow]

20 minutes max, maybe

[steel vortex]

Since Clyde and the cooldown +the amount of people joining being like triple or more, maybe a good 3 hours idk

[astral niche]

apparently request are being reiceved through the 9 to 11 december

[dense jackal]

that sounds like it isn't the job of a sprite manager 😛

[steel vortex]

Or several days

[cedar quest]

You got it, thank you for letting me know

[uncut shadow]

cant i host contests as a contest manager?

[thin moat]

Thank you!!

[cedar quest]

I'm the only Event Manager online rn, so pretty much. Thank you for the heads up though 😄

[steel vortex]

That's not a role smh

[uncut shadow]

oh wait

when did they change it lol

[steel vortex]

As usual, Simon "Tee" Cowell slacking

[uncut shadow]

event manager *

[cedar quest]

...Did you even submit one? I can't find it

[thorny marsh]

I’m assuming when there is nothing after the mon’/mon’, that means there are no special instructions?

[cedar quest]

Yep

[thorny marsh]

Okie doke

[uncut shadow]

i could of added instructions... 🤦‍♂️

[thin moat]

Yea I definitely did it through the form

[astral niche]

I added instruction but I wonder if the spriter gonna follow it or not since "he" is not forced to

[thin moat]

It would be mattwhy or Matt Why

[astral niche]

But I'm hglad I didn't got instruction ? I was scared to get a reference sprites

[uncut shadow]

if i get a refrence sprite i swear

[steel vortex]

[astral niche]

give him one

[uncut shadow]

https://tenor.com/view/ahh-gif-24018335

[tulip tusk]

wait people could request reference sprites

[dull mortar]

it never occurred to me that you could do that--

[astral niche]

these secret spriter thing is great , ididn't have the courage to take a request so at least I'm training to do so

[dull mortar]

missed my chance to ask for dark cloud swords for christmas

[tulip tusk]

I'd never ask for a request for this, mainly since it'd kinda suck if the other person doesn't know the ref themselves

[astral niche]

I asked for a reference sprite

I choosed one that already have some pixel art of it so it's not too hard

[tulip tusk]

idk how because in the submission there was no space for extra notes

[astral niche]

I literaally put it in the note

[sinful pendant]

Some poeple just put notes in the same box as the sprite request

[tulip tusk]

oh

[plush vale]

imagine secret non spriter with loads of badly done stick figures

[sinful pendant]

Honestly if I got a reference sprite I might not do it, especially if its a reference to something I dont know

I'm bad with reference sprites lol

[tulip tusk]

you know what same, I don't think I could do a ref to something I don't know (also I prefer to make a main sprite with it so the main isn't just a ref)

[astral niche]

it depends of the ref sprite if it is do like that veruy specific character from that obscure series where the character is extra detailed , I would pass but if it likes a kirby it's already easier

[thick harness]

If I get a reference sprite; get ready to not have your reference as part of the fusion

[tulip tusk]

of course the kirby pfp would say that /j but fair I love kirby and the character designs are easily translatable

I like games with mid sized fanbases (aside from deltarune and such) so I think any ref I request would not be known

dark nebula best boss fight me

[astral niche]

I choosed a kinda obscure ref but it's a pokemon one so that it's already easier. I knew that if asked for a gyroids from aimal crossing it would have simply not been made

[astral niche]

yeah the simpler the design the more likely casual people remember it

[tulip tusk]

I don't hate ref sprites but if I was forced to make one I'd perish on the spot

[dull mortar]

I think the benefit of doing a dark cloud sword would be that you get to sprite a cool sword and not need to know anything about the series

[astral niche]

I only ever did oen reference sprite and it was because it was a simple design

[dull mortar]

yippee!

[tulip tusk]

HA
I did one recently for a dsaf character since I really like funny object heads

[astral niche]

tho I wanted to turn this little fella into spamton

[dull mortar]

cutie...

[tulip tusk]

little guy :]

[astral niche]

this was also my entry for the snorunt contest (I did not won but it was fun)

[uncut shadow]

question, when i get the request, can i share what i got?

[tulip tusk]

I don't think so

[astral niche]

you cna but with spoiler tag

[tulip tusk]

I'd say to just wait until you post it in spritework (I'm planning on spoilering mine when I post it for feedback)

[lusty pewter]

what are the chances that as secret spriter someone make a fusion + a looping gif animation for it?

[astral niche]

(this is an example and not the real one) here is what I got if you have a lopunnny in your request do not look ||lopunnny/snorlax diggersby reference alt||

[dull mortar]

sssssmall I imagine

that's the worst thing someone could request

[uncut shadow]

you mean like a moving sprite?

[lusty pewter]

yes

[astral niche]

yeah lol

[uncut shadow]

thats not allowed in contests usually

[open folio]

Pictures that move? That’s unheard of!

[lusty pewter]

b2w2 style

[tulip tusk]

guys I may not be able to read

[elder venture]

One of us one of us

[lusty pewter]

yeah it's not but what if you submit it along with a regular sprite

[dull mortar]

it/s okay reading is facke

[lusty pewter]

it's big brain time

[dull mortar]

so is spelling

[tulip tusk]

I literally write fanfiction I can't have the reading comprehension of a 5 year old man

[uncut shadow]

dont think so, or at least you can but they will not judge it

[lusty pewter]

they judge secret spriter?

I thought they just send it to the person who request it

[astral niche]

it just like an adult entering a children competion , it's not on the same level

[lusty pewter]

nvm ig

[elder venture]

I imagine you can make an animated sprite and just not have it in the contest.

[sterile pasture]

same for me, which is how I know you can 😔

[tulip tusk]

also animation is hard, I doubt people would animate a sprite when they first need to make the sprite itself

[elder venture]

The BW style animated sprites don't require newly drawn frames though, it's just rigging the sprite already made.

[lusty pewter]

well there is a 2 week deadline so you have more time (assuming you don't have much going on on christmas)

[dull mortar]

5 year old man is a really good string of words

[tulip tusk]

yeah but it still feels kinda tedious (my art program can't handle rigged animation so it might just be me)

[tulip tusk]

probably should have added a comma gvbhnjum

[dull mortar]

no it's good leave it

it's like benjamin button

[dreamy gyro]

I don’t know why I’m awake at such an ungodly hour for this, I can just check if I’ve received my request in the morning.

[tulip tusk]

im too lazy to edit it tbh

[elder venture]

It is, for sure. Not neccessarily formal rigging, but if you put each part on different layers and just use the rotate and move tool.

[astral niche]

I'm almost done with the frist version of the secret santa sprite

[tulip tusk]

I think I'd be unable to restrain from polishing the animation (I do sprite animation for fun)

[dull mortar]

I should learn how to make animations without having to use like. a website

[tulip tusk]

crunchy sprites hurt my soul

[elder venture]

You could do that, but in terms of doing the BW style. It looks awful in a freeze frame, broken lines everywhere D:

A polished animation would be really darn cool.

[tulip tusk]

gbhnjmk

the rigged sprites make sense, doing high quality animations for EVERY pokemon? insane. in motion it's impossible to see the breaks so it's fine

[dull mortar]

need an entire fleet of people to do it

[astral niche]

I hate myself I spent the last fe minutes doing the request but turns out I did the reverse fusion of what I was asked for

so I'm gonna still post it to spritework but like I lost time doing what I wasnt't meant to ;c

[dull mortar]

pats!

[icy jasper]

Are the messages being sent out now?

[tulip drum]

some people have it right now

#event-announcements message

[torn dawn]

fuck

I missed it

[lusty pewter]

I haven't gotten a dm yet so idk my request

[lusty pewter]

I def recommend it just for the sake of understanding how it feels to animate. I made a looping gif animation (relatively) recently and it was tough. 3 days of work for a little over 1 minute animation.

[crude cedar]

I know what I need to do, but I don't know how to do it

If the Pokemon used in the Head of the Fusion has Wings, but the Pokemon used in the Body of the Fusion does not have Wings, then would the Fusion have Wings?

[cedar quest]

There's 272 of yas, I just finished the first 40

[lusty pewter]

XD

[cedar quest]

They are, in fact I'm pretty sure I sent yours to ya

[lusty pewter]

god speed gordo

I'll patiently wait for my request :3

[frigid summit]

So excited to see what I get

[crude cedar]

But yeah, what do you guys Suggest?

[crisp cargo]

2-fucking-72? jesus

[lusty pewter]

I'd say add wings, but if the design look off you can remove it

it really depends on the design you're after imo

[icy jasper]

Yeah I just got the message

[lusty pewter]

:O

I just got a dm

[cedar quest]

@frigid summit check ur DMs please

[fierce flume]

I got my request

[daring barn]

we're already getting the request?

[fierce flume]

have fun waiting nerds

[cedar quest]

yeye, I'm workin' on it

[cursive brook]

Holy shits

[daring barn]

oh, ok-

[cursive brook]

Good manager

[thorny marsh]

I'm liking the ss I was given rn, hoping my sprite won't disappoint

[cedar quest]

I am going holiday shopping here soon, so apologies if I don't get this all done in one dau

[plush vale]

instant ban

[daring barn]

I got my ss

uh

it'll be a challenge

[tulip drum]

i hate the suspense

[daring barn]

Also, can we post the ss in the spritework?

(I guess not, but idk)

[plush vale]

ye I think people sometimes spoiler the image though

[dull mortar]

noooo

[cursive brook]

Manager role revoked

[dull mortar]

yeah you should post to spritework and you can spoiler it if you like

[torn dawn]

oh well I mean I am quite inactive so maybe it is good to not have a spriting "obligation"

[cursive brook]

Please spoiler it

[dull mortar]

isn't that gonna make more work for manegers or somefin

[cursive brook]

Yeah just be nice and spoiler it

[cedar quest]

I can add you in manually last second

If you really wanna

There's already been a couple b/c of tech issues n' such.

[dull mortar]

o:

[torn dawn]

omfg yes

please

gamr the camiska's butt savr

[dull mortar]

fuck the 'maybe its good to not have an obligation'

[tulip drum]

got mine!

[torn dawn]

YE FUCK THAT SENTIMENT :D

[tulip drum]

praying i dont disappoint

[dull mortar]

haha

[cursive brook]

How r u gonna send in requests to people with their dms closed

[rapid knot]

I'm curious, given the number of requests sent per hour, how long do you think it will take to deliver all the requests?

[sterile pasture]

those people go directly to jail

[dull mortar]

bby jail

[cedar quest]

Off I go for now

[cedar quest]

Ping them to death

I will be back in a couple hours

[daring barn]

Wanna see a wigglyret use a portal?

[cursive brook]

Take your time

[cedar quest]

Will try and type some out on mobile when I get the chance

[crude cedar]

Do I have to like do something to possibly get a request or is it just for any spriter

[cursive brook]

Did u sign up?

[crude cedar]

No, i didnt know i had to

[astral niche]

well rip

[cursive brook]

You can’t

Sucks to suck

Get event pings

[dull mortar]

[thorny marsh]

[uncut shadow]

[cursive brook]

I’m waiting patiently for mine

[astral niche]

want to know something sadder , I finished the general sketch of my ss only ot relaized that I made the reverse fusion

[crisp cargo]

gamr is the only one around rn

[cursive brook]

At least you didn’t complete the fusion before realizing

[astral niche]

I kinda did

[cursive brook]

OOFOOFFOFIFOFO

[astral niche]

by sketch I meant this(464.334):

[dull mortar]

now you have a sprite you can submit for regular reasons

[astral niche]

at least

[thorny marsh]

I just have my 288x288 sketch 328/150

[astral niche]

I'll post both of them in spritework once I'm done with the base of the actual ss request

[cursive brook]

Can yall provide the fusion numbers in the image so i know im not being spoiled?

[astral niche]

[cursive brook]

Looks nice

[astral niche]

[cursive brook]

[astral niche]

[dull mortar]

I hope whoever gets mine doesn't hate it

[cursive brook]

Same

[dull mortar]

[cursive brook]

You will see

I actually want the fusion I requested but idk if ya’ll will like it

[dull mortar]

[magic sail]

[lone cairn]

Oh lordy, this is gonna be interesting when i get my request

[cursive brook]

huh?

[lone cairn]

I'm just excited to get the Secret Spriter request

Or did i word it wrong

[dull mortar]

gonna have to be patient P:

[magic sail]

i hope somebody got my request already 👀

[dull mortar]

hopefully not! but mine did some weird stuff when I tried to submit it the first time

yeah I hope someones got mine!

[lone cairn]

We will see

[astral niche]

okay so I posted them both to spritework

[junior axle]

how many people signed up for this one?

[severe epoch]

I think I saw it was about ~270?

[junior axle]

aight

[magic sail]

so ye,will take some time

[thick harness]

I'm happy with my request, can do a lot of creative stuff with it

Just gotta think of a good design now

[junior axle]

im sorry for the person who got my request, i just thought of 2 pokemon and put those

[tulip tusk]

whoever's request I got
pretty neat request, kudos

[astral niche]

I wanna know what is it

[tulip tusk]

ha no >:]

[astral niche]

:cccccccccc

[junior axle]

i think its a pokemon

[tulip tusk]

shit how did you know

[junior axle]

lucky guess

[lone cairn]

I do hope that the request that i will get isn't too difficult to do

[junior axle]

im hoping to not get groudon thats all i want just no groudon

[astral niche]

I got 2 pokémon I never orked with before

[lone cairn]

The most of my sprites that i have done are small Pokemon

[junior axle]

same lol

[astral niche]

yeah me too

[tulip tusk]

I think most requests are going to be final forms

I've done some large mons so the thing I got is actually fine with me

[astral niche]

but yesterday I tried for the first time a bigger sprite and it turned out great

[tulip tusk]

trying to fit giant mons into the sprite bounds is pain

[dull mortar]

Yeah......

[lone cairn]

Well, i do hope my first big Pokemon sprite will be good too

[astral niche]

where is the google drive for the ss requests

[tulip tusk]

out of curiosity, does anyone ever make sure that their sprite has a recognizable silhouette?

[junior axle]

the only big sprites ive made are trevenant sprites

[junior axle]

usually

[astral niche]

neverthought of that

[sterile pasture]

tbh this goes such a long way toward making a killer sprite

[tulip tusk]

does anyone want to play "guess that fusion based on silhouette" /hj

[astral niche]

sure

[junior axle]

sure

[lone cairn]

Nah

[tulip tusk]

hoo boy I wonder what body fusion this is /j

I'll be honest I just asked that to make this joke

[mellow wagon]

This is just an excuse to help you with the radio tower minigame

[junior axle]

glalie/chandelure(?)

[tulip tusk]

jokes on you, I haven't even gotten halfway through the game

[cedar quest]

I try

[lone cairn]

Jk, mind as well join in

[sterile pasture]

that's rayquaza/piloswine ez

[lone cairn]

Is this Venusaur / Chandelure?

[astral niche]

sorry to bother you but where is the google drive I can't seem to find it

[cedar quest]

But sometimes the concept I have is in the details rather than extremities

[tulip tusk]

that is correct! you can have my firstborn child and my entire life savings

[cedar quest]

Not up yet

[sterile pasture]

[cedar quest]

One of the things I still gotta do

[astral niche]

okay , also does the ss fusion also need ot be posted into the gallery,

[sterile pasture]

wait... there's so little here tho

[tulip tusk]

too bad

[cedar quest]

it’s not a requirement, but it should be

[astral niche]

okay

[cedar quest]

hell as long as I see the thing in spritework it shows that you worked on it

[astral niche]

okidoki

[cedar quest]

and you’re not getting punished if you worked on it

[astral niche]

I accidentally worked on the reversed at first lol

[sterile pasture]

anybody else shiver every time the word punish is used? I didn't even sign up for SS..

[magic sail]

hey gamr can i have a request to sprite

[crude cedar]

yo im kinda out of the loop, when do u get ur secret spriter thingy and how

[sterile pasture]

gamr is dm'ing the spriters who signed up for it

sign-ups were in #event-announcements

[solemn orbit]

Im excited for mine

Im still waiting for the DM though

[junior axle]

[solemn orbit]

I signed up early

if they leave me out for some wierd reason

imma cry

[astral niche]

I signed up early and already finished the one I reiceived

[solemn orbit]

[junior axle]

[crude cedar]
