fun fact, this is where Alomomola's Regeneration ability comes from

it just doesn't have a care in the world

[placid briar]

like the theory people came up with is that frog has 4 mons picked out, and the color with the most gets added as his choice

Truly head empty

[pastel fog]

ah yes

red for Pansear
blue for Panpour
green for Pansage
and yellow for Pikachu 2 The Sequel

[ancient palm]

speed evaluation

[vast jay]

@wary canopy Please open you DMs, I have some info for you

[tulip tusk]

confused about the dex feedback i got

[wary canopy]

oh oops right i can do that

[tulip tusk]

CONGRATS!!!

[wary canopy]

thank you!!!

[random girder]

i still dont believe this

my fucking clever cut copy paste sprite

over genuine hardwork

[tulip tusk]

can somebody give more clarity on this?

[void sluice]

I think they meant that it should've explained more about what is UNDER the fur, how is the real thing

[random girder]

i liked elusive dex but safe to say i will not be participating for some time( I got grammered policed and sprite checked at the same time)

https://tenor.com/hVlOaVnaNKu.gif

[tulip tusk]

i thought this implied enough what it'd look like? idk

[void sluice]

well, if the person that gave the feedback appears, talk to them

I think they'll be glad to answer you

✨

but I loved it

[carmine falcon]

same

[limpid sphinx]

both copypaste tbh

but works

[random girder]

https://tenor.com/bovoo.gif

[trail lake]

I did pretty decent despite it being my first real attempt to make a pokemon sprite

[void sluice]

nah nah participate more

btw if you're guys are mad at some of the Professors, tell here

[random girder]

im going back to mini blitz

https://tenor.com/biYH0.gif

[carmine falcon]

everytime I am proud of sprote sprote gets beat to death in events

I was proud of the little silly

but I'll try to improve it according to the feedback!!!!

(the dex entry too)

[shrewd garnet]

when i got critique only after submitting my sprite, i knew it wasnt gonna go over well 😔

[jagged hinge]

I got a 4.2 on the sprite itself pretty good for my firts contest

[carmine falcon]

it's epic

[random girder]

it wasn't this universe

but i belive some universe out there you won

[carmine falcon]

this was the first sprite for a contest

and it did like

pretty badly

[random girder]

after all it was

[carmine falcon]

[random girder]

https://tenor.com/vWNbnW2wcRl.gif

[gusty frost]

i would probably have gone a lot higher if i didnt try to go weird with the dithering

[jagged hinge]

turns out my dex entry was kinda shitty

[random girder]

they completley overlooked midas turning stuff to gold

[void sluice]

4 for the sprite
2 for the entry, pay attention for the comma

[random girder]

but its okay

[void sluice]

mhm mgm

[blissful kindle]

Just gave the crown to Ribbon

[random girder]

tyrantrum got me high marks

[void sluice]

it was a great idea, but yeah your execution was somewhat poorly

👍

[jagged hinge]

oh you are a judge :0

[void sluice]

I am

I'm one of the hosts

[gusty frost]

😮

[carmine falcon]

[tulip tusk]

ayyy 48-54th is pretty good

[carmine falcon]

[void sluice]

https://media.tenor.com/M0bZ6V1ijGwAAAAM/batman.gif

[carmine falcon]

lemme calc my points

[void sluice]

I judge

[carmine falcon]

how do we calc it

average?

or

total points

[worthy turtle]

why is my submission not in?

[gusty frost]

anyway i imagine the winner will chose the fairy mushroom that i forgot the name

[random girder]

shinotic

[void sluice]

wdym?

[worthy turtle]

i put quilava/buizel into this elusive dex thing

and it's npt there

not*

i didnt even get judged

i know i submitted

on that one form

and yet my fusion is nowhere in the sheet

not even the submissions page

[jagged hinge]

i just realized i got the averages wrong X)

[void sluice]

🤔

[jagged hinge]

these arent connceted

[void sluice]

@cloud solstice honey

[void sluice]

yeah
first is sprite, second is dex

[jagged hinge]

oh then i got it right

[worthy turtle]

i knew i wouldnt win, but i at least wanted to be judged

what happened

[void sluice]

on that example I can tell you
4 = sprite
4 = dex

[limpid sphinx]

brazilian moment

[void sluice]

[regal palm]

Damn, I did relatively well in the dex section but didn't realize it was also gonna have sprite ratings

Whomp whomp

[jagged hinge]

i would have gicen it darker outlines

[worthy turtle]

When POKENAME heats up its floatation sac, it can float gracefully through the air, much like a Drifblim. When it spots prey, it collapses the sac and pounces from miles above.

i was really proud of it

[jagged hinge]

OHHH now i get its not decimal!

[regal palm]

Hurray for the Morelull pick

[limpid sphinx]

LOL

[gusty frost]

ok concept results when

[void sluice]

Bruh lmao

[random girder]

to that guy who said i have no complaints

I love you man( or woman)

[jagged hinge]

this is truly a moment

[gusty frost]

half of the server are smeargles

[random girder]

born to add minior to infinite fusions. Forced to watch kommo get in

[random girder]

fair enough

[hearty wagon]

MY biggest regret is not adding more highlight color to break up lumineon's dark colors, curse lumineon's horrid sprite pallette

[regal palm]

It is not horrid it's pretty

[random girder]

@sage wave

[regal palm]

Flats are not your enemy

[hearty wagon]

well they ARE pretty colors but lumineon only has like 12 of em, needs more highlights

[regal palm]

Lumineon always struck me as being very matte in texture

[shrewd garnet]

i blame the dumb pose i went with 😔 tail covers most of the legs which had their own problems anyway

[trail lake]

It looks lovely though!

[hearty wagon]

It always looks that way in game, but you'd think it'd be shiny since yknow. Feesh

[granite dawn]

wait, did the results get revealed?

[worthy turtle]

Yeah

[granite dawn]

where are they

[worthy turtle]

Ribbon won

[regal palm]

Event results, not event announcements

[hearty wagon]

#recurring-events

[worthy turtle]

We're never getting seviper and zangoose, are we?

[granite dawn]

oh it's the elusive one right?

[worthy turtle]

Yes

[granite dawn]

thought it was speed spriter

[red vigil]

mine wasn't high but i expected it, i just wanna do a goofy waffle

[granite dawn]

that is indeed a goofy waffle

[shrewd garnet]

is 51 a good rank 👉 👈

[granite dawn]

Is it a good rank for you?

[worthy turtle]

It's speed spriter, not speed judger

[granite dawn]

smh, washed managers /j

[void sluice]

for me it is

you're not a 0

[regal palm]

Same bestie

[void sluice]

and you're waaaay up high

[trail lake]

I got a 48 and a 46, I'm happy with that

[carmine falcon]

how do I check my rank?

[shrewd garnet]

idk thats why im asking

[regal palm]

Given that the other dex contest ripped me I'm happy this one went better

[daring adder]

I’ll take 88th place gladly

[granite dawn]

If you're happy with the position, it's a good rank

[regal palm]

And I didn't realize it was gonna be a sprite judgement as well so some of mine were BUSTED

[random girder]

I feel like i did better in the other dex contest lol

[slender thunder]

Gardevoir meta moment

[carmine falcon]

how do I check where I placed chat

[slender thunder]

Lots of garde sprites lol

[tulip tusk]

i think it's just hard to read as slurpuff specifically, even with the food theme

[carmine falcon]

[regal palm]

Pretty dresses 🤤

[random girder]

gardevoir dress do be making judges go 💯

[carmine falcon]

I was the only rockruff

[daring adder]

They said the concept of mine was nice so I’m happy with that

[carmine falcon]

oh

results

[whole arrow]

Ribombee scored hard in this and the last non IF event too

[red vigil]

i know why he did not make high, i have made enough contest to know what judged like or not

[blissful kindle]

@acoustic saddle I think I goofed too much with the dex entry That 5,0 is so funny though

[carmine falcon]

I think I placed at 128

[jagged hinge]

someone doesnt like the word drip

[daring adder]

Glad I could represent turtonator, lost cause but NOT forgotten

[random girder]

NTM is genuinely just cruising

bro is without a care

[shrewd garnet]

tbh my brains being mean to me again and saying its bad so im asking other ppl to confirm or deny it

have you seen their speed sprite entry?

[void sluice]

it is good!!

[random girder]

https://tenor.com/euvAKaXyPG1.gif

[jagged hinge]

i did the best vikavolt head, ignoring the fast that i also did the only one

[random girder]

passimian did not have a good showing but

atleast he got to be midas

[agile quest]

Damn i just noticed someone won twice so we have carbink twice. Wonder how thats actually gonna look on the vote

[random girder]

Big stall

Big fucking stall

[agile quest]

Wdym

[random girder]

its for showdon

[agile quest]

Sorry youre going to have to be more specific im confused

[random girder]

the dude won from showdown

[granite dawn]

[agile quest]

I just had noticed in the anouncement that we have carbink twice bc someone won twice

[random girder]

idk about monotype

[agile quest]

Wow. That sucks

[random girder]

nah

its fair

[shrewd garnet]

owie

[random girder]

you gotta be clever

not fair

[jagged hinge]

i see someone writing in events reilts 👀

[random girder]

[agile quest]

I dont do any of the gameplay anyways but i mean like

[jagged hinge]

oh wait it was only a ping

[agile quest]

Idk it feels kinda strange lol

[void sluice]

I was trying to ping so more people can see it lol

[spare breach]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-ping-pong-funny-animals-cats-gif-8766860

[jagged hinge]

fair but i thought it was the speed spriter result, although is kinda unfair to expect that so fast

[void sluice]

naah it will take some time

[carmine falcon]

it's speed spriter so why no speed result

[shrewd garnet]

guess whos not gonna win 👈 👈 :3

[jagged hinge]

oh boy if you thought my execution on this one was a bit lacking i cant wait until you see my summition to the speed spriter

[cloud solstice]

it's not working

[void sluice]

me ofc

I'm gonna kill smn

today

[shrewd garnet]

🤝

[void sluice]

https://media.tenor.com/M0bZ6V1ijGwAAAAM/batman.gif

[cloud solstice]

useless ping

[carmine falcon]

had to use my 2 braincells for this

[wary canopy]

tbh i had to search for my personal ping too event results wasnt in my channel list so i did see a red icon for a notification but. not the channel i was notified in

[tulip tusk]

im really curious about certain speed spriter sprites

[tulip tusk]

current contest winner color looks so similar to the current blue color bhnjmk

[void sluice]

RWAAAAHHH

me when ping doesn't pong

[wary canopy]

were all winners here i suppose

[void sluice]

ping the guys for me then, friends

ping everyone

@worthy turtle btw I don't know what happened, maybe it was google being bad asf

I'm sorry for that

[worthy turtle]

Darn

[jade chasm]

me and the getting mid tier
maybe i should stop doing weird things nobody likes for contests because they get less feedback . but i also love doing weird things nobody likes

[gleaming sand]

Bro morellul? 💀

[hearty wagon]

Bro u dont like mushrooms?

[gleaming sand]

I don't like any of the mushroom pokemon

[jade chasm]

we got morelull at home

[thorny saddle]

justrick confirmed certified mushroom hater

[gleaming sand]

Shiinotic is especially bad

[tulip tusk]

mushrooms are silly little guys

[void sluice]

btw do you guys have something against any Professor that voted? maybe an specific one who voted low for your sprite

[jagged hinge]

funny toad for bodys and gorgeous mushroom lighting for heads

[hearty wagon]

I think shiinotic has great potential honestly, for both cute and creepy stuff

i mean shiinotic's face... has seen some things.

[placid briar]

Congrats

[tulip tusk]

is there violence in your heart
idk what this sentence means do you get the vibe

[placid briar]

Nice shiinotic sprite

[gleaming sand]

Honestly not that it matters too much

Since only one line is gonna make it

And if it's not golisopod, i give up bro

[void sluice]

maybe :3

[tulip tusk]

golisopod is hard to work with ngl

[tulip tusk]

also yes and I will not clarify who /j

[gleaming sand]

Y'all just want simple mons to copy paste faces on top of smh /hj

[void sluice]

[tulip tusk]

it doesn't matter how complicated the mon is, people with splice anyways

[hearty wagon]

I would LOVE Golisopod OR shiinotic personally

[gleaming sand]

Booring

[gleaming sand]

Only picks i like are Golisopod and Tsareena

[hearty wagon]

also just realized shiinotic GLOWS, awesome special effect potential

[jade chasm]

the only second vote up there that i care about is golisopod

[tulip tusk]

tbh not a shiinotic fan but also big mushroom hat
I need to make shiinotic/xatu a funky little mage

[gleaming sand]

But Goli has the priority

NGS isn't complete without him

[tulip tusk]

how do you feel about chimecho getting in game

[gleaming sand]

Terrible

[tulip tusk]

coward /j

[jade chasm]

i like your bell fusions but im just kind of guh about it

[tulip tusk]

yeah that's fair, i just think it's a funny pokemon

[hearty wagon]

OOOOH I just noticed scrafty in there, YEEEEES I want it in the game so bad

[tulip tusk]

my second pick is furfrou and that might be worse

[wary canopy]

no those are both based picks

[random girder]

2nd based first eh

[shrewd garnet]

also shiinotic has a silly face how can you say no to that face

[slender thunder]

Creepy

[tulip tusk]

the freak /pos

[random girder]

Shower cap

[jagged hinge]

this is very funny to me

[tulip tusk]

so called free thinkers when 8 points

[slender thunder]

4 lucky njmber

I guess

[random girder]

Roman senate ah answer

[wary canopy]

honestly possible the most impressive score there

[shrewd garnet]

sycamore and turo didnt seem to like my sprite :[

[placid briar]

Chimecho actually making good fusions like fr

[void sluice]

Hmmmmm

[placid briar]

I give it a 3

[hearty wagon]

chimecho's colors would be really fun tbh

[random girder]

Whoever said no complaints love that dude. Don't love the one that called my Minior cheese head

[placid briar]

Now that my fighting type quota is filled let’s get more Fairy or Ice Types

[shrewd garnet]

shiinotic moment

[placid briar]

Shiinotic or Cryogonal for their cute faces

[shrewd garnet]

and carbink and ribombee are fairies too iirc

[tulip tusk]

I see one of the professors really likes kommo-o

[jade chasm]

dark, fighting (now that kommo-o line was added) and fairy are tied for second to last in terms of how many pokemon have those types in if

[jagged hinge]

i like that they gave some sprites background colors to help with visibility

[jade chasm]

and ice is last!! just like the main games!!

[tulip tusk]

that was you?

[rich hemlock]

yippee!

Im happy with tieing for 13th

[gleaming acorn]

We need more Fairy Typed fr fr (but also Minior)

[plucky arch]

minior got second

proof the people want and love minior

[void sluice]

I'm glad!! yours was great as well!!

[plucky arch]

minior will surely be added, soon, one day,

it will happen because i believe

[rich hemlock]

The only thing that I'm sad about (but not too surprised) is that the "ears" didn't get read as flames hence why no black outlines,,,, which the bothered a lot of judges

was not able to get them to read flame enough, alas

[gleaming acorn]

If I wasnt aware of the other submissions, I would assure you that my Minior/Shuckle Concept Art would 100% guarantee this

[rich hemlock]

I'm also not at all surprised ribbon's gardevoir won, I didn't look at many entries but I felt that one would be it, congrats to them!

[dawn prairie]

Hmm i tied for being in the top 50
This and dog days i can live with, there was def a phase where i was fumbling contest submissions. fuck i gotta redo unown altaria it's so bad

[granite dawn]

I can say no

Shiinotic is a war criminal

trust me, I used one

[feral surge]

can someone tell me where is the banding that the comment is talking about because I can't find it (also which outlines are too light and which are too dark)

[gloomy meteor]

im loosing my mind

[gleaming sand]

Mista would fucking hate this

[gloomy meteor]

omg whats ho ho pride

[granite dawn]

ye

[feral surge]

a role you got if you made a sprite with ho-oh during pride/ho-oh rush

[gloomy meteor]

oh

[feral surge]

my is buried under my helper icon

[gloomy meteor]

ye i saw

these color things are cool

[ancient palm]

oh I just checked 7th place tie hell yea

[eager raven]

Hi guys?? I just woke up to me getting 3rd place?? I did not expect that whatsoever but omg ty all!

[granite dawn]

I got the role because of this, surely.

[shrewd dirge]

I have a blood vendetta against professors oak and turo for rating all of my sprites lower than the other professors did. But I would gladly forgive them if I could get my hands on the one who didn't understand the point of my hypno/Masquerain

[jagged hinge]

Wasn’t the cool thing the colour roles?

[cedar quest]

Well yeah that

But specifically what you replied to

-# :(

[plucky arch]

all my sprites, gone 😔

no more sprites within the banner

[jagged hinge]

Well a new banner is very cool but like not for the cool thing

[limpid sphinx]

gamr did their best for the banner, the coolest thing is we having some new mons being added, nothing can be cooler than this, gamr just wanted to gave something from him to our community and the banner is amazing, thanks gordo!

[tired mantle]

minior for the 2nd vote... just saying...

[eager wyvern]

i want maractus on it

if a line with only 1 pokemon gets added, can two more 1 pokemon lines get added to balance it out

like Maractus/Carbink/Pachirisu

[ancient palm]

TRUE!

[silent jasper]

Blegh I gotta stop makin my sprites too big

[gleaming acorn]

I mean "cool" was literally a hint
We got cool, hot, and shocking and bam: Zapmolcuno

[limpid sphinx]

or one line of three 😛

or... a certainly group of 9 monkeys...

the more the merrer right

[eager wyvern]

they should add enough mons to reach 500

[icy jasper]

But at least the 500k banner looks cool having 2 triple fusions on it

[eager wyvern]

it is the 500k special right

[gleaming sand]

Oh my god I didn't even think about that

We're missing 27 mons

[sly shuttle]

6, 9… never enough monkeys
We should get 36 monkeys!!

[placid briar]

lol, i know you said that the banner is foreshadowing

but like if they actually add 27 starters to fill up the dex to 500

which, now doesn't work out since the winners vote will push that to 502 or something

[plucky arch]

thatd be the 3 sets left

[placid briar]

how convient that would be

[plucky arch]

i can see that

from an engine standpoint, unsure

but last time frog literally made it so Bruxish would be mon 469

i can see it being a thing of like

"oh we'll figure the order out"

maybe hoping itd be a 2 line and a 1 line and itd fit all nice

if the next batch in announced without dex numbers, id put money on it, otherwise im not sure

[placid briar]

the "engine" limitation is fixed already, they have room for literally the rest of the pokemon, gens 8-9 (if we had the data) and then some. Its more of Frogman's "Time" that he can spend coding them in

like his estimated release time to have Kommo-o line in is November

and thats only 3 pokemon

[plucky arch]

which yea, but he didnt know he wouldve added em until like today

if the frog wanted special fun for the starters, very well couldve already been working a bit

im just here to keep the tin foil hat in play

its fun to theorize

[cedar quest]

It's fun to watch theories :)

[plucky arch]

WAIT

GAMR IS 3 SIDES

3 TIMES 3 3TIMES IS 27

THATS HOW MANY STARTERS THERE ARE

https://tenor.com/view/charlie-day-gif-18564553

AND 3 POINTS, WITH 4 FINGERS, AND ONE BLACK DOT,
7 POINTS AND 1 BLACK ONE
THATS MINIOR BABY

But yeah fr kommo-o would already be ready if I released an update today. It became pretty obvious that it was going to win so I got a head start

[tired jay]

Makes sense that past a certain point it would be obvious what would win

[vast jay]

It wouldn't have any custom sprites tho so it would be pretty boring xd

[limpid sphinx]

kommontest

[cedar quest]

Eventually

Not too long now

But like

not at this current second either, gotta let the mons gain some natural identity first

[limpid sphinx]

gonna hold my ideas then XD

[cedar quest]

Hm...I don't like that

[limpid sphinx]

(actually 0 ideas to it

[cedar quest]

I know what to do

[limpid sphinx]

a good idea could be a contest with all the new mons?

probably less boring than the classic contest alike right

idk

after 2nd vote :p

[plucky arch]

3 more fighting mons, but at what cost

(cost being 3 more dragon mons)

[placid briar]

jangmo-o isn't fighting type

[ashen sapphire]

2 fighting, 3 dragon

[plucky arch]

worse

[placid briar]

and then this is where Scrafty wins Winners poll

[plucky arch]

if scrafty wins i leave the server forever

[placid briar]

shame, thats means you cant vote for the mon you want next year

or if they do an earlier poll

[cedar quest]

That's if new mons are added next year

Although then again

Frog said they weren't gonna do it this year

[plucky arch]

scrafty gets added and immediately frog retires

[cedar quest]

And here we are

[thorny saddle]

How quickly can we get to 1mil

[plucky arch]

1 mil is when all the starters get added

[placid briar]

i thnink 750K milestone would work too

[icy jasper]

are entries, like a concept from the past few weeks, allowed before the contests even begin?

[plucky arch]

i gotta rate all the mons added

which i mean,,, i think, it means Carbink is like for sure tho right

if everyone chooses a mon, and then they all vote

why wouldnt they vote for the mon they chose

carbink twice

[placid briar]

originally you cannot vote for your own mon

so if i submit Vespiquen

I cannot vote vespiquen

[plucky arch]

oh okay i see

[placid briar]

Carbink's exception is that one of their 2 votes can go to Carbink

[plucky arch]

[vapid girder]

Was this ever elaborated anywhere? I didn't hear about it myself

[blissful kindle]

@cedar quest LET COLLABS ENTER CONTESTS

[vapid girder]

I would have thought it would be the same setup as the public vote, but with exclusively the winners' mons. And then anaconja just gets 2 votes.

[placid briar]

thats what i assumed to, but based on what Ana said

everyone winner gets 1 vote. and to make it so that carbink just auto wins, the winners cannot vote for their own

hey have to choose a mon that they did nto submit

[vapid girder]

That seems like a really easy way to get multiple-way ties, but I guess we'll see how it shakes out

[whole arrow]

Can I make something very clear?

Prep time really only makes contests easier for weaker spriters

If we want people with weaker abilities or less time to get higher ratings in contests we should give more time

[placid briar]

i mean based on whats been happening for previous contests, i make sprites and dont post them till i see a contest that fits the critera so...

[whole arrow]

if the rule is "No entries from before the contest announcement" then people who are very talented are given the advantage

[plucky arch]

i wouldnt say that, yes theyll get higher rating, but very skilled spriters also get that same prep time

[whole arrow]

skilled spriters dont need it

[plucky arch]

but they get it

so they can use it

[whole arrow]

and it does almost nothing for them i promise

my sprites rarely get tuned much after i finish

[placid briar]

so the extra bit of times is still something /j

[whole arrow]

I finish them in 4-6 hours and spend MAYBE 1 hour on feedback

im trying to say that "no entries from before the announcement is a way of gatekeeping less skilled artists

and if you want higher engagement then dont make that rule

I dont have 25 contest entries ready to go or something and i dont think other contest winners do that either

just a thought im sharing

I agree with Gordos decision to allow sprites from before the announcement into the contest

[dense jackal]

Big fan of the announcement. I vaguely remember kicking up a fuss about stifling hype through the "no entries from before announcement" rule last time we did releases.
Glad to see it's different this time

I support the rule for general contests though 😛
It's just releases where it's daft

[plucky arch]

but its either just a Longer time to work on it, because most contests are announced and then the deadline begins, so otherwise it would just be a longer deadline
or any sprite from beforehand are allowed, which is still just another benefit for skilled spriters, as they Have all these very skillful sprites done and can enter them and things

i think the rule for releases is good, iirc we did it last time with the triple dragons since it was so late

but i just dont see the point of how it benefits lesser skilled spriters but not more skilled ones

[plucky arch]

i prolly should know this i think i ran it lmao

[whole arrow]

I dont need a week to make these

[frigid ruin]

holy f

[blissful kindle]

But you do need feedback though

[whole arrow]

for the people who could never make these not allowing them use a lucky predmade asset they have is just a hindrance

[cedar quest]

Convince me

[whole arrow]

If you happen to be one of the weirdos with a premade Kommo-o sprite good for you

[blissful kindle]

Because of concept art

[cyan gull]

skilled spriters are superman, we are batman

[limpid sphinx]

better: make real a collab contest again

[plucky arch]

and if a skilled spriter has a premade kommo-o

[heady escarp]

what is the sprite on the server Icon?

[cedar quest]

Oh not this again, not this weird spot of "Does using concept art count as collabs?"

[whole arrow]

Kommo-onnnnnnn bro

[limpid sphinx]

#contest-gallery

[blissful kindle]

I'm not asking the question, I know it does, so I want it allowed

[frigid ruin]

it takes me months to get a sprite done bc Im a perfectionist with not much practice on sprites and also a full time job ;_;

[limpid sphinx]

it doesnt

[whole arrow]

then you dont get to participate sorry

[plucky arch]

i understand where youre coming from i just simply disagree tbh, i think it affects both skilled and less skilled spriters equally

[whole arrow]

only 7 days

[cedar quest]

It begins again.

[plucky arch]

fast and slow spriters is different and is not proportional to skill level just speed

[cyan gull]

dw, I'll just create a more divisive topic for my next hosted contest

I'm thinking of restricting everything

[whole arrow]

im sure theres a graph that very accurately describes the speed to skill ratio

[void sluice]

My next event will be just one rule

[cedar quest]

My next April Fools has you beat and you know it

[whole arrow]

contest winners work fast, thats a fact

[void sluice]

only 1 spriter can join

[whole arrow]

Soreile constantly drops their entries on day one

[dense jackal]

I really, incredibly, highly doubt it

[frigid ruin]

h o w

[plucky arch]

true, because thats how the system is set up, but ngl, i dont see the winners changing much with more time given

[limpid sphinx]

oh yeah give skilled spriters to have more time yet to work on their stuff lmao

[cyan gull]

I know

[whole arrow]

No the placements might not change but their desire to enter in the first place might

[cyan gull]

but I have ways of angering people

[plucky arch]

you dont know what you dont know is very true, someone with little experience will not be DaVinci with an extra week

[mortal void]

With practice comes skill and/or speed, they’re related but aren’t directly tied slow and skilled is a thing, as is fast and..well, just faster and faster I guess

[cyan gull]

like for example, concept art + spriting, but the concept art is raffled out

secret spriter drama 2

[limpid sphinx]

exactly

ppl when they realize that skills = experience:

[cedar quest]

In truth, it's just a test of sorts

[limpid sphinx]

ppl when they realize that competitive stuff gonna always have ppl with more experience on the top:

[plucky arch]

i consider myself a very poor spriter ill be real, i did it almost every day for 6 months, i got a little better but the winners make me look like ive got crayons on the walls

[cedar quest]

Both to see community reaction this, seeing if it's something as a rule I can implement if it's well-received

But also just

[cyan gull]

and that's why I always win

[cedar quest]

I don't want people to not post their stuff because of the rule

[plucky arch]

an extra week or so would not, in my opinion, change my abilities

[frigid ruin]

yeah i have 0 motivation to enter contests at this point because it's super difficult to find something i feel like I have enough time to sprite to the level i want it to be, and a week timeline with my job usually means a week for everyone else and i get less than 12 hours

[cyan gull]

I had enough experience to learn that rigging them is easier

[cedar quest]

Because imo that just...feels bad??

[dusk zodiac]

Spoiler!! Rayquaza mega evolves.

[whole arrow]

ban this guy

IMMEDIATELY

/j

[cedar quest]

And this is why I'm putting you in charge eventually

[dusk zodiac]

Some people can't bear the weight of my trolling

Your pfp looks like avocado

[plucky arch]

i think longer entry times occasionally would be great for people like you who are busy

[dusk zodiac]

What the fuck is that effect on your profile

Plant

[tulip tusk]

what is going on in chat

[plucky arch]

but winners can also be busy and things, and would also give them a chance to enter as well

[dusk zodiac]

Ive been trolling then there is this avocado guy

[jade chasm]

kid took wideclouds ban joke seriously idk

[whole arrow]

I was just arguing that Gordos decision to let the next contest allow premade sprites in

[plucky arch]

i just dont think it disproportionally boosts the chances or anything of amateur spriters

[whole arrow]

was a good one

[dusk zodiac]

And stardew valley oc

[whole arrow]

they did

???

Rigai /j means joking

[dense jackal]

You've actually been arguing a different point 😛

[whole arrow]

i do not care about mega raquaza spoilers

[plucky arch]

true

i also agree it is a good idea

[dusk zodiac]

Do i have to type /j so you all understand im joking

[plucky arch]

the contest was announced just now

"there will be a contest, it will be about the Kommo-o line"

[tulip tusk]

what was even the joke I can't find any clarifying messages

[dusk zodiac]

.

[whole arrow]

what joke

what guy

no idea what youre all talking about

[cedar quest]

wait I just realized

U mean I'm avacabo? D:

[dusk zodiac]

epic style

[plucky arch]

[whole arrow]

[tulip tusk]

i wasn't going to be an ass but this line is so unbearably cheesy that i have to say something man

[cyan gull]

nah, I treat my opinion like litter

[jade chasm]

i dont have many sprites that arent submitted and probably wont follow the contest criteria

[cyan gull]

someone else can pick it up, I don't care about trash

[dusk zodiac]

Lmao

[jade chasm]

for what

[dusk zodiac]

Cheesed to meet you

[plucky arch]

cant believe pory's just littering in #event-general

[limpid sphinx]

[dusk zodiac]

How can i make a poll

[cedar quest]

The best part of this is

[void sluice]

[cedar quest]

It wasn't Pory

[dusk zodiac]

Banjo :)(

[cedar quest]

[dusk zodiac]

I always call kommo-o banjo

[cedar quest]

Figure out it's identity of like

[tulip tusk]

[cedar quest]

What to do with it

[dusk zodiac]

Cause it sounds like banjo

[void sluice]

I didn't had much time 😔

[plucky arch]

its definitely all these Scales

[limpid sphinx]

[dusk zodiac]

Omg miku

[cedar quest]

Trust me, after is the move Pory

[dusk zodiac]

Whats

What was that

[cyan gull]

that's what the voters say

[dusk zodiac]

There is some matrix shit on your profile

What is that even

[cyan gull]

but like, the majority is voting that, so I gotta rig this vote too

[plucky arch]

boutta get nostalgic, i miss Family Fuse, thats when i peaked

[cyan gull]

it's a scam called Discord Nitro

[dusk zodiac]

Yea but it wasnt a thing before

The animation

[plucky arch]

not the entries i dont remember what i did but it wasnt good
but hosting wise it was fun

i loved seeing the entries

[dusk zodiac]

Avocado lad has plant animation

[cyan gull]

I peaked in high school

we're not the same

[limpid sphinx]

New Double Trouble when gordo

[cedar quest]

Junkyard wasn't ur peak?? D:

[whole arrow]

Yallve made upwards progress in your lives?

[cyan gull]

Tee giving me a dumpster fire to try my Watchog skills on

[dusk zodiac]

How do i make a poll

[cedar quest]

That was also me

I just caused that because I could, and it fixed the problem

[cyan gull]

yeah, but you stuck around to watch the circus tent burn

[cedar quest]

It fixed the problem

So therefore

No regrets

[dusk zodiac]

Yayy

[plucky arch]

OH RIGHT Misdreavus/Mismagius
actually i didnt mind that one

thats one of my better sprites

[cyan gull]

I don't regret it either, I got to get people to calm down with malevolent rambling

[plucky arch]

i dont remember junkyard lemme jog my memory

[cyan gull]

then some shit would rile them up again

until the grimace shake patrol showed up and relieved me

[dusk zodiac]

I remember a poll on yt about zapdos or gzapdos and +30k votes later the poll was 50/50

[cyan gull]

accurate retelling:

[dusk zodiac]

Zapdos fans are chill af

[cedar quest]

I think u left like

Right after

And then I caused a riot

[cyan gull]

https://tenor.com/view/rayleigh-one-piece-crying-gif-7583256620608062087

then you left

then Gordo relayed in 4k everything

[plucky arch]

i do remember that yeah

[cyan gull]

then the great circus fire took place

[plucky arch]

its cause AI came for our jobs

[cyan gull]

🍵

[plucky arch]

kiwi made auto contests and i quit smhsmh, let myself be a martyr

(thats not actually the reason)

[cyan gull]

auto contests?

[plucky arch]

the pokemon of the week thing

[cyan gull]

@cedar quest write that shit down, autobots contest in 2026

[cyan gull]

oh

[plucky arch]

it was like RIGHT after junkyard jumble

[cyan gull]

meh, that's a fun side thing imo

but continue

I want deets

[plucky arch]

Junkyard wasnt my peak but its up there

i loved getting Trubbish justice

[sly shuttle]

Me thinks that’s too many polls

[tulip tusk]

junkyard was such a cursed event

[cyan gull]

you walked so I could run

👑

[plucky arch]

Junkyard was a dumpster fire

[dusk zodiac]

Are you a mod

[tulip tusk]

is this a double reference or is it just a pun

[cyan gull]

you made me take care of the dumpster fire

[cyan gull]

that's too many polls

[plucky arch]

i left, came back, and the entire event manager role had kinda been disbanded

[cyan gull]

[dusk zodiac]

GENUINE QUESTION

Idk i might get muted

[sly shuttle]

Purple is mod

[dusk zodiac]

Fug

[plucky arch]

uhh yes

my IF peak,, gosh

[cyan gull]

that's right, I possess the power of "idk, I'm right"

[plucky arch]

i did get 4th once, that was fun

[cyan gull]

that shit still frustrates me, since I have to jump 20 hoops for some of the shit

[tulip tusk]

i need to resprite my entry since it had a ton of technical issues

[cyan gull]

I can't even change the server PFP

[plucky arch]

oh so event manager is still the same then

[cyan gull]

and this is all a tie-in to how the piss managers get all the pros

[plucky arch]

i fought SO HARD for that orange name and it died with me

[cyan gull]

this is rigged!

[dusk zodiac]

Can i make a poll

[plucky arch]

Scolipede contest, Beldum/Whirlipede

[cyan gull]

yep, because the role became a staff helper role

[whole arrow]

https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/302153478556352513 i feel like this is the channel you were looking for today

[cyan gull]

except there's no staff to help

[plucky arch]

i think my peak was last mergemay tho, that was fun, it ended up making me stop my daily challenge, but it was fun

[dusk zodiac]

WAIT AM I NOT IN GENERAL

DANG IT

[plucky arch]

i lied, im wrong

[cyan gull]

this is the cooler #general

[whole arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/skull-issues-gif-13031152103567454559

[plucky arch]

LC

[jade chasm]

[plucky arch]

Little Cup was my peak

Little Cup makes me so upset tho, not cause it died

[dusk zodiac]

This gif will always live in my heart

[plucky arch]

but i made over 50 entries, first person to do so (a race with hero)
and the FIRST ONE i made ended up winning and moving on

[cyan gull]

I swear I'll take your poll privileges

[plucky arch]

and it wasnt my best one 😔 Mareep/Onix is still my favourite sprite ive made and it was LC

[potent sorrel]

Look
I saw the joke opportunity

And I had to

[cyan gull]

as did I

yo Tee when are you making an event

[plucky arch]

Little Cup was a lot of fun to sprite for tho

[plucky arch]

Junkyard, Family Fuse

already done

[cyan gull]

damn, are you retired?

👶👉 👴

[plucky arch]

oh yea, for like, a while

[whole arrow]

Pollygon

[cyan gull]

ik lmao, I remember the nick

[plucky arch]

i did also have Jurgejune

[cyan gull]

Merjaugust

[plucky arch]

last year's june, that was fun, almost nobody did it but it was still nice

[whole arrow]

grabbed a 2nd screenshot

[cyan gull]

I'll sprite the thumbs down

[potent sorrel]

But we can't see it anymore

[whole arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/batista-thumbs-down-wwe-smack-down-wrestling-gif-10594395

[potent sorrel]

YouTube didn't want people to get upset

[plucky arch]

Voltorb Completion was my, whatever the opposite of peak is, that was my lowest point

i still see Red and White and shutter

[whole arrow]

hey i got a possibly controversial question to ask

[potent sorrel]

Poland traumatized you?

[cyan gull]

me with Ditto

[whole arrow]

what if there was a contest of Champions contest once a year

[cyan gull]

and I'm not done

[plucky arch]

yes

how many dittos

[whole arrow]

anyone who won an event or contest with a sprite gets to participate in a sort of "King of the Server" style thing

[cyan gull]

I'm 150 deep

[whole arrow]

[plucky arch]

im so sorry

[cyan gull]

and not done with the damn booger

[plucky arch]

i only did 100

103 iirc

smth like that

i couldnt take any more balls

[potent sorrel]

That sounds cool on paper
But then people would get upset when they lose even more then before

[limpid sphinx]

please neve search
"in: #sprite-gallery by: datorre voltorb"

DaTorre was there in the trenches with me

[cyan gull]

don't be introducing powercreep into the contests lmao

[limpid sphinx]

lmao

[cyan gull]

I made one for my spritedex

[whole arrow]

people have been getting quite complainy about "youve already won so many contests"

[limpid sphinx]

mael cheated on us going to team chinchou smh smh

[cyan gull]

holy shit I want that far away from me, it was fun but not repeatable

[cyan gull]

you can't fault contest champions for winning though

[whole arrow]

anyway just a thought, i think a contest of champions would cause some of the most gorgeous sprites of all time

[plucky arch]

i remember talking about it a lil when i was a CM, i think it wouldve worked during Contests (we did decide against it cause of lower spriters not being allowed, and gatekeepy)
but with all the different events, i dont think itd be a good idea

[dense jackal]

I've literally never seen this
||But my chat channel was taken away. Rip spriter lounge||

[cyan gull]

dw, I'll make the 64x64 minimum challenge

[plucky arch]

some events are The Contests were its a big event and some are a lot smaller

[cyan gull]

it'll be awesome

[whole arrow]

someone said this to Datorre yesterday

[plucky arch]

THE LOUNGE IS DEAD???

WHO KILLED THE LOUNGE

[cyan gull]

has been

[whole arrow]

it was too slow/extra

[plucky arch]

i was there when she was founded 😔

[whole arrow]

wasnt serving much of a purpose

[cyan gull]

uhh, it was me trying to kill a different chat

[plucky arch]

the lounge was the best spot to talk, it had The Vibes

[tulip tusk]

today proved we need that lounge

[cyan gull]

it came to topic, and it died p much on the spot

[plucky arch]

the server is completely different now and i hate everyone here, but ahhh, back in the good old days

[blissful kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/krol-gif-19996608

[cyan gull]

it was actually pretty dead for the lounge

it became a never-closing forum

[dense jackal]

It was nice to have a room you could keep up with without having to be reading messages 24/7

[rough frost]

that's a dehydrating rack right there that lagomorph done spilt. Farmer's eye on me 👩‍🌾

[tulip tusk]

a convo topic died as I was making art for it and couldn't post it, this opinion was formed merely out of selfish feelings

I am really tired why did i type this out

[cyan gull]

I agree, but it really wasn't being all that used

[blissful kindle]

Beat them then That's what I'm trying to do, I wasn't too far off in Dog Days

[cyan gull]

because most of its users dropped by once in a blue moon to say something, get 2 replies, and back to the deathly wails of silence

[blissful kindle]

I didn't understand a word you said my friend

[whole arrow]

I beg Sadfrog to compete in every contest because he fires me up when i lose to him

i do not relate to wanting to win at the cost of a lack of stiff competition

[plucky arch]

god ive kinda been here,, a while, ouch

[dense jackal]

But 👏 that's 👏 the 👏 point 👏
||I'm over it, I just want to enjoy some salt ^^ ||

[plucky arch]

i left the server so the date doesnt count, but i joined early November 2022

I joined and left quite a bit until I became a spriter

[blissful kindle]

Yeah that feels cheaper, not all contest champions have an equal role, it says thesame thing, but it couldn't be more wrong

[plucky arch]

i joined in order to sprite a mon pretty much

Pyukumuku/Tentacool

first pixel art id ever done

[blissful kindle]

(contests from more than 2 years ago are worse overall)

[hollow grove]

What are u drying, like beans?!?!?!

[cyan gull]

Avian

[blissful kindle]

Top 15 from elusive clears those

[whole arrow]

heres some

[blissful kindle]

Not on the server anymore I'm afraid

[plucky arch]

ive also like literally only done IF pixel art, i have 0 interest in Pixel Art as an art form i just really liked fusions

its just IF mons and my pfp

[cyan gull]

[cedar quest]

oh absolutely

[plucky arch]

(which is mostly stolen)

[rough frost]

aye beans, peas, fruits, herbs, the whole lot

[blissful kindle]

Oooh, but then is it bad that the bnnuy is toppling it?

[cyan gull]

Stardew Valley sends its regards

[blissful kindle]

purge the contest champion role

[plucky arch]

real

[cedar quest]

you think modern day this gets a 3rd? yeah no

[whole arrow]

I still want Dark Blue name tho nothing matters more

[tulip tusk]

just make a flashy sprite in a community voted event /hj

[rough frost]

acceptable losses factored into the price of doing business, yessir

[blissful kindle]

That's a 3/5 in today's standards lol

tops

[plucky arch]

there are also all events in one, some with like 10 entries

[cyan gull]

I want to make a few different contests to garner different talents for things to be used in IF and its adjacent facilities

[hollow grove]

Slay, we love a self sufficient queen 👸

[tulip tusk]

we need more outfit contests so we can actually get outfits in game /hj

[cyan gull]

I'd like to run a few different contests, some I need to get through green man

[plucky arch]

ill be so honest

[whole arrow]

but im a mean feedbacker so im not allowed to win voted on contests 💀

[plucky arch]

i do miss the manager days

but i am So glad i quit

it does not seem fun rn

[limpid sphinx]

what

[cyan gull]

I respect the grind, and I can understand the sentiment lol

[cyan gull]

it's not fun juggling events, but I do enjoy making prompts and formulating the events

[whole arrow]

thats my unprovable excuse for losing vote contests

[plucky arch]

it was just me and gamr going "should we do a junkyard contest?" "sounds fun"
and the kiwi's there for some reason

[blissful kindle]

I don't look who did what sprite when voting

[hollow grove]

Pory ur killing it, i think it would be super fun to see how u work behind the scenes!

[tulip tusk]

public voting also doesn't show names for sprites

[blissful kindle]

Sometimes I know, I can guess the artist or I've seen it in spritework, but I try to ignore it

[cyan gull]

that my secret cap, I don't

[whole arrow]

i imagine saying ur name with an australian accent because of all the superscript added to your letters

so in my head im like jarjar

[hollow grove]

So much creativity in the newer events! It would be wonderful to be an event manager rn haha!

[plucky arch]

yeah staff votes dont say who did what unless you actively go look

[cyan gull]

I don't need luck, I need copious amounts of free time

[plucky arch]

servers moment

im surprised im even still here

[cyan gull]

I'll be honest, the only reason I've stuck around long is because I'd like to give the regulars a nice place to stay

[plucky arch]

(ill prolly leave again once the vote stuff passes, not the server but just kinda fade away popping in rarely)

[limpid sphinx]

yeah frieren now its your turn

😛

[cyan gull]

I enjoy the people in the server, so returning the favor is only fair

that's not to say that this doesn't sap my life force

[plucky arch]

tbf everyone i know is gone and almost everyone who knows me is gone, time for the next generation

[limpid sphinx]

minior dont gonna join you know that

[plucky arch]

[cyan gull]

I got to see the transition in real time, it was... odd

[cedar quest]

I've seen multiple gens of spriters come and go

[plucky arch]

boomer gamr

[cyan gull]

especially since a lot of the old members sorta pushed themselves off, and the newer peeps kinda filled in

[cedar quest]

Yeag 😔

[plucky arch]

[cedar quest]

I've been around for I'd say like

[plucky arch]

i wonder if Blaq is still around

prolly not

[cyan gull]

yeah, just much less active

[cedar quest]

[plucky arch]

Blaq was p much the first person i really talked to here i think, with Togekiss stuff

[cyan gull]

[cyan gull]

Xillo is always in #spriter-general

[plucky arch]
