Why is it not working right now?

From my understanding it has somehow reverted to the original state that I pushed to the third party website. Said it in the bot chat but I might just need to host it from my PC. Almost all of the problems that have come up are because it's being hosted on a third party website
Actually I had a thought. I'll continue in bot chat again

Because longer deadlines means two things:
- If you've already entered twice (or thrice depending on the comp), you have to usually wait like 3 weeks until something happens
- It just makes it possible for more last-minute entries

The latter. But I see you working on it. 🙏

voting's going... interestingly. Sad the cute little Whomsicott/Cleffa didn't get very far, that was one of my favorites.
darkrai/cleffa was another favorite

the grovyle topgepi was my fave, im surprised it got only 2 votes 👀 its so teeny i love it

Same for the whimsicott and grovyle

We can expect a lot of sprites with very few votes due to weighted voting not yet being implemented and each bracket being large.

I think the broader, smaller themes lend themselves to people being really creative with little space. Practically every sprite that got entered had a chance at winning I think. 😄

I wouldn't use any of these probably ever
Stan gets banned for rule 7

I didn't mean not use as in the fusion, I meant I don't use animated sprites because they stand out just as much as autogen sprites when the vast majority of sprites are static. 😅
