[burnt bane]

god theyre such freaky creatures

also when i was looking at pictures (and now when seeing the video) it all looked so fake lol

like the color and quality made them look really fake and edited, like they were models or figures edited to be under water

[wet flax]

I liked these squid

[tall moss]

the whalefall gif doesnt even play

https://www.sciencealert.com/images/2019-10/whalefall_1024.gif

better

vampire squids are the best thing tho

love em to bits

[burnt bane]

why didnt you make one as well then 👀

[tall moss]

i wanted to be original

i made a jellyfish, a whalefall and a mistake

[burnt bane]

[tall moss]

[burnt bane]

i carried the sprite to get at least somewhere

[tall moss]

i liekd our collab more than my 2 standalone sprites tbh

[burnt bane]

[tall moss]

[burnt bane]

[thorn robin]

[burnt bane]

kiwi do be getting the double win on the big whale

[thorn robin]

blaq finally won a contest and was for money

[tall moss]

congrats @burnt bane and @ blaquaza i voted for you guys

[burnt bane]

[fallen adder]

https://tenor.com/view/bugs-bunny-looney-tunes-cash-money-counting-money-gif-17544086

[thorn robin]

everyone needs to ping blaq now

[fallen adder]

1 vote dif for 1st. Was a close one

[tall moss]

if i voted for myself i wouldve triple won

is it too late to change my vote

[dawn ivy]

what a close one

they were real nice <3

[tall moss]

fr tho that squid deserves the win, its based on a real animal AND looks like a scary deep sea monster

excellent execution technically too

[tidal leaf]

Congrats @burnt bane

[burnt bane]

damn 👀

[tidal leaf]

(You can ping blaq for me I'm not that stupid)

[fallen adder]

When kiwi gets more money than the guys in first because it's split between two

[burnt bane]

blaq and i decided to do 80/20

[fallen adder]

Who gets the 80?

[burnt bane]

gamr

[fallen adder]

https://tenor.com/view/dean-supernatural-confused-what-huh-gif-5990733

[tall moss]

i wanna do another spons comp with this money 👀

[burnt bane]

that was what the 20% was for on blaq and my end

80 for gamr, 20 for the new sponsored comp

[cedar quest]

Grats on the dub

Also no worries on another sponsored. . .

[fallen adder]

It won’t be me dealing with the next sponsored comp either way

[cedar quest]

Just...be ready, I'm finishing up some framework that I plan to submit ;)

But now that the contest is over...I can finally make comments about the sprites

[fallen adder]

“Man they were all terrible”

[cedar quest]

But no, there wasn't a single one that I didn't atleast like, I expected a couple more Lugia sprites, since that was the obvious one in my eyes, but you all went above and beyond, I especially liked the sprites that took consideration of underwater lighting to be able to see the surroundings, it was smart to include.

I still don't wanna dive specifically into each sprite, since I don

*don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings

So other than that, thank you for participating in my Deep Sea Derby, and look forward to what I got in store for the future.

[tall moss]

ty gamr for sponsoring thisss

[cedar quest]

No probs

[wind topaz]

That final poll was close

[dawn ivy]

I still see my beautiful moon and I thank you for it

[thorn robin]

sponsored contests don't change the icon

[dawn ivy]

NOT LIKE I KNOW THAT

:')

[thorn robin]

epic

[tall moss]

[thorn robin]

bet the moon tastes like cheese

[burnt bane]

@wet flax you taste like moon?

[wet flax]

no

[thorn robin]

the moon tastes like cheese and not the opposite

[burnt bane]

Oh

Dumb mistake

[thorn robin]

nah don't worry

it's a common mistake

[dawn ivy]

:(

[burnt bane]

Om nom nom

[misty acorn]

congratz! I hoped that one would win

But don't change the perfect server icon

[burnt bane]

don't think its getting changed due to it being a sponsored contest

[cedar quest]

I kinda hoped the squid would win finals just bc I gave the choice to Kiwi's already

[quartz locust]

Oh wow, that was a nice surprise! And so close too, honestly there were so many good sprites this time. 😄

Thanks for putting this on, GamR, everyone always brings their A-game to sponsored contests. 🙂

[compact saddle]

lets go, i voted the winner

[burnt bane]

Lets gooo

[compact saddle]

vote mattered moment

[burnt bane]

Decisive voter

[thorn robin]

I just realised i dindnt vote for a single sprite

In the last 3 contests

[burnt bane]

[thorn robin]

I'm happy with the winners either way

They all deserved it

[compact saddle]

[tall moss]

theres only 4 entries in the palkia comp so far

2 are mine, 2 are emis

[wet flax]

I even wanted to participate, but just being palkia makes me feel lazy

[compact saddle]

i got an idea

[wet flax]

so do it

[thorn robin]

I just got an idea too

[dawn ivy]

I've tried making more

but ffs its a pain to work with

even the nidoqueen i made just, the head feels so off from the rest with the color pallette

[rain stump]

haha imagine actually committing to making an entry

nerds

[tall moss]

the contest managers put in so much work in organizing these contests and then no one enters them

[dawn ivy]

Palkia is just real hard to work with and this shows

[rain stump]

I wouldn't know

😎

[sleek drum]

does a hivemind can count as space horror?

[dusk schooner]

That's ultimately up to the judges

[compact saddle]

its real hard to have ideas with it for me lol
im tryna think of a third entry but ???

[sleek drum]

[dusk schooner]

I'd say it depends on how you depict this hivemind

[wet flax]

I had an idea, but I don't know how to do it.

[sleek drum]

got a ideia on what to do

hope i am able to make it

[compact saddle]

why do i assume you're using weezing

[dusk schooner]

It's gonna be fun seeing what cosmic horror sprites people make

why do you do this to me Scrapi

[compact saddle]

fear me

[dusk schooner]

The real cosmic horror

[wet flax]

I had an idea for unown cosmic horror

[dusk schooner]

Hell yeah

Unown's basically a weird space thing anyway

[wet flax]

I have an idea with palkia too, but I don't know how to do it

[dawn ivy]

I'd resprite plakia completely to get rid of that horrible sprited mess

its such a though rough thing to work with

olors are weird

eh

[dusk schooner]

You usually draw your stuff anyway right?

[dawn ivy]

yes, but i take the reference from a sprite for the line colors etc.

like this

[sleek drum]

just gonna throw my fusion here

not a hivemind

Spiritomp / Kyogre

[dawn ivy]

that coud be amazing

[dusk schooner]

Indeed, spiritomb makes for good fusions

[compact saddle]

guys give me a cosmic horror idea for my sprite

[dusk schooner]

You've already made a sprite you sweat

[compact saddle]

[dusk schooner]

Yeah Scrapi make that as a sprite and give yourself 10/10

[compact saddle]

good idea

[dusk schooner]

I wanna make Nyarlathotep, and I have a fusion idea in mind for it

[wet flax]

Wailord

[compact saddle]

this is moby cock

[wet flax]

Why is there so much space whale art?

[dusk schooner]

Because Space Whales are a common Sci-Fi trope

[wet flax]

but why space whales?

[dusk schooner]

Because it's like regular whales... BUT IN SPACE!

The idea being that it's a parallel to stories of whale mosnters in the ocean, but instead done in space, because both sea and space usually involve ships and captains

[wet flax]

so can i make a deep sea horror?

[dusk schooner]

Well you joke, but quite a few alien designs can take cues from the ocean. I mean look at all of Lovecraft's lovely octopus creatures

[tall moss]

@burnt bane submit vaporeon/garchomp to the space horror comp

[silver merlin]

ban

[dusk schooner]

Submit golbat/tentacruel too

[burnt bane]

Vampire squid? Never heard of that

This is a cosmic tentacle alien

[sleek drum]

best idea for this theme

[dusk schooner]

Funny since he actually worked for a cthulhu alien for a couple of episodes

[tall moss]

i made an entry already

[silver merlin]

im making a entry for part 3 too

it'll be very spooky

[tall moss]

we need more palkia entries tho

[silver merlin]

im working on mine

[tall moss]

[dusk schooner]

Epic katten sprite moment

[compact saddle]

ill make my last one tomorrow

[silver merlin]

bitch go to sleep

[compact saddle]

shut up

[silver merlin]

[wet flax]

I have an idea, but I don't know how to do it

[tall moss]

draw some pixels

[silver merlin]

how to sprite 101

[wet flax]

Palkia/Unown - Space (punctuation)

[silver merlin]

make the reverse

naked palkia

[wet flax]

no

[tall moss]

you do do like

[ ]

put the shoulder pads/pearls on the brackets

[wet flax]

[tall moss]

and a galaxy floating in the middle

[silver merlin]

i don't think i have time to make my entries

[dusk schooner]

20 day extension time

[silver merlin]

nah man too little

maybe a century

[tall moss]

youd have more time if you didnt have a terrible collab partner making you redo your work

[silver merlin]

guess the fusion everyone

[dusk schooner]

Absol/palkia due to colour scheme

[silver merlin]

[dusk schooner]

Palkia airpods

[wet flax]

brackets

[silver merlin]

spacepods

[dusk schooner]

[silver merlin]

woah they spilled grape juice

[dawn ivy]

[rain stump]

is this grape juice stasis?

[vast blaze]

They did surgery on a grape

Now we here

[umbral stone]

canon

[rain stump]

cannon

[umbral stone]

canonically true

[thick atlas]

no f* ideas...

[burnt bane]

I have an idea

Make a palkia fusion

[normal dock]

xD

[thick atlas]

thats not an idea

[burnt bane]

[thick atlas]

but great that you use your 2nd account so somebody laughs about your joke

[burnt bane]

W..what?

[normal dock]

I am my own person lmao

[thick atlas]

stan, i help you all the time...

[burnt bane]

Im seriously all out of ideas tho..

And motivation

You could do like a uh

Palkia Dusknoir

With a black hole mouth

[thick atlas]

dont just drop random stuff

[compact saddle]

lmfao

xoto, you can steal from my poll

[burnt bane]

Lurker scrapi

[compact saddle]

i mean
palkia dusknoir was tied as most voted
but i chose the other one cause one vote i was more biased towards, cause of who voted

[burnt bane]

Wack

[compact saddle]

dont at me, my two favorite people voted that

[thick atlas]

how do you know?

[compact saddle]

i keep track

[thick atlas]

lurker scrapi

[thick atlas]

great... now i got something like an idea...

[wet flax]

2 palkia/smeargle

[silver merlin]

oops, hold on 👀

[wet flax]

Katten cheating

[silver merlin]

[sleek drum]

@tall moss 🔫

you're giving me flashback from miltank / deoxys with the cloyster

[silver merlin]

Should be fixed now

[severe dust]

wait what was it

[silver merlin]

uhh

[wet flax]

amazing sprites

[silver merlin]

it loads for me

[sleek drum]

it's better you not know

[severe dust]

i wanna know lmao

[compact saddle]

[burnt bane]

Wtf

That's some shitty luck

[compact saddle]

[silver merlin]

Pollmaster is down atm, so contest results may come a bit later than usual

[compact saddle]

:pollmaster_pet:

[thorn robin]

i need ideas for a space monster

[compact saddle]

collab with me, i have nice ideas

[fallow bough]

Scrapi has terrible ideas. Scra always turns mine down.

[silver merlin]

collab with me, i have a very spooky monster in mind

[compact saddle]

[weary pagoda]

If you wanted to enter you could have asked me to judge instead

[silver merlin]

[weary pagoda]

That was worth a ban

[burnt bane]

Baseballs?

[thick atlas]

do you get the other two? me neither

[thorn robin]

oh mighty judges can you give this sprite a max score

i think it needs a bit more dithering

[silver merlin]

hmm lets see

needs a bit of half pixels ngl

[thorn robin]

i see

[burnt bane]

Scrapi always uses the wheeze emote, katten presumably due to being a sprite or something?

[thorn robin]

could also use a bit more black outline no?

[silver merlin]

2D Plane is uh

[weary pagoda]

I would suggest to make it an actual sprite with 96x96 scale, 1x1 pixel, shading, then post it to spritework and listen to others' feedback
But since I'm not a judge my opinion is wrong

[burnt bane]

Right or that yeh

Still unsure about baseball?

[silver merlin]

Kiwi is a huge baseball fan

[weary pagoda]

🥝
▪️🏌️

[thorn robin]

that's golf

[weary pagoda]

We were out of bats

[compact saddle]

covid is no more

[fallow bough]

covid novid

[thorn robin]

ladies and gentleman we did it, covid is no more

[weary pagoda]

"Who lives in Gotham City?"
M a n

[silver merlin]

vid is the new 19

[compact saddle]

i positive tested for bovid

[thorn robin]

now for real, i might actually sprite this thing it's not a bad design at all

[compact saddle]

that's for the judges to decide

[burnt bane]

👀

[thorn robin]

just keep in mind that when i judged i gave you a max score

[compact saddle]

low standards

[thorn robin]

good sprites 🔫

[burnt bane]

Shouldve been higher punko🔫

[compact saddle]

lmfao

[tall moss]

ill give my entry the max score

[compact saddle]

ill give mine 0

[tall moss]

katten gets 1000/10

[silver merlin]

ill give mine a "boo/10"

[weary pagoda]

I'll give an objective judgement to mine
||Wow this sprite has no half pixels, 10000/10||

(In the parallel universe where I Katten didn't refuse to be a judge)

[thorn robin]

eternal despider

i was just looking for spider poses

[tall moss]

context for yall btw

[fallow bough]

That's the wrong context.

[tall moss]

when else have i ever mentioned baseball?

[silver merlin]

just now

[misty acorn]

I kind of have to make some sort of Clefable for the contest now, don't I?

[burnt bane]

Nah

[fallow bough]

Your chair has baseballs on its legs.

[tall moss]

theyre chair balls 👀 not baseballs

[wicked onyx]

every time you sit down you crush your chair's balls

poor chair

[thick atlas]

i googled chair balls. dont google chair balls

[wicked onyx]

oh no

[fallow bough]

I thought you just got random baseballs.

[thick atlas]

arent tennis balls more common for this?

[compact saddle]

i lack of the balls

[thick atlas]

*lick

[burnt bane]

👀

[burnt bane]

I see nothing wrong with chair balls when I google it

Idk what you got but uh

[thick atlas]

are there pokemon that look like they have a helmet on? like ledian?

[wicked onyx]

lmfao subject change

[wicked onyx]

arent results based on search patterns

[thick atlas]

i got some balls stuck in a chair

[wicked onyx]

LMAO

[burnt bane]

Yep thats getting saved

https://tenor.com/view/caught-in-4k-caught-in4k-chungus-gif-19840038

Pawniard/bisharp

[wicked onyx]

shelmet

huehue

[thick atlas]

Anybody in for a collab?

[brazen pawn]

After tommorow i have time

[silver merlin]

[compact saddle]

xillo op

[silver merlin]

ban the xillo meta

[normal dock]

xD

[feral maple]

there is a problem with the contest-polls

I can't vote, numbers count like an emoji

[burnt bane]

bot down, remove the reactions and wait till its up again 👍

[silver merlin]

@crude cedar get your stuff together

[dusk schooner]

Mute Pollmaster

[compact saddle]

yo btw
if any of you people's entries are based on actual things, send me pics and maybe tell a bit about it's lore if something is incorporated into the sprite

[pastel fog]

dang, I only now realised that I got the 3rd place in the sponsored contest lol

[silver merlin]

Grats

[pastel fog]

should I contact GamR or they will contact me someday?

[silver merlin]

contact bta

[pastel fog]

okie

[silver merlin]

he has the moni

[compact saddle]

good luck to epic finalists

[silver merlin]

yes good luck

[weary pagoda]

Let's vote for A4
Surely the best entry

[tall moss]

i like B3 personally

[silver merlin]

i just thought i messed up the polls :kattenmentalbreakdown:

[weary pagoda]

Hehe sorry

[silver merlin]

[fallow bough]

He spent it on a FFXIV subscription.

[cedar quest]

[lucid shuttle]

Hmm, now my quesion is, what would be a good cosmic horror Dugtrio fusion?

I was thinking maybe Giratina where it's like a portal or something but I dunno

[thick atlas]

im here if someone wants to do a collab for the contest...

[burnt bane]

do it someone, we got 3 entries so far

[silver merlin]

everyone that doesnt enter the contest gets a ban

[burnt bane]

LETS GOOO

[compact saddle]

is banned

[silver merlin]

gets unbanned

[tall moss]

theres been a lot fewer entries since collabs started being a regular thing

[quartz locust]

Although the calibre of entry has also improved. 😄

[thorn robin]

and ideas have been lacking too

[fallow bough]

This means little to me if we only get like, four entries.

I want people to enjoy them, not feel too pressured by the high quality to enter.

[quartz locust]

I think in that case, limiting collabs could be a good thing, with the occasional Double Trouble. They always felt special when we had contests specifically for them. 🙂

[fallow bough]

Y'all are the ones who said you wanted them regularly. 😂

[quartz locust]

Now it's just "please work with me because I'm bad and need a good artist to help make sure something of quality is being submitted", at least in my case. 😂

[quartz locust]

They're fun. 😅

It's a tricky situation because it's either more entries and lower skill ceiling or less entries and a higher skill ceiling. 🙂

[tall moss]

at least with double troubles the scrapis ans the kiwis could submit a million entries each

[thorn robin]

yes

[compact saddle]

what

[thorn robin]

that's why it was so fun

[quartz locust]

You had a piece of all of us. 😂

[compact saddle]

[tall moss]

now 2 people make 3 entries together instead of 6 total

[thorn robin]

||kiwi and scrapi are spriting sluts||

[compact saddle]

can every contest have kiwi and i specifically be able to make 20 entries

[dusk schooner]

Yes that'll fix participation

[tall moss]

bring back sprite duels so me and scrapi can duke it out, his 20 sprites vs my 20 sprites

[compact saddle]

time limit: 2 minutes

[quartz locust]

https://tenor.com/view/go-go-dog-gif-10099200

[dusk schooner]

Having less collabs shouldn't affect quality too much right? You guys still make good sprites when you do them yourselves anyway

[dawn ivy]

I have trouble with abstract contest options, hence why im not working this

[dusk schooner]

The contest theme is broad and it's up to the judges to decide what a "cosmic horror" is, so I guess you've got alot of freedom on what to actually make

[dawn ivy]

im not fond of that personally, I like doing these contests and works because then i know what to work with, now i dont really

[thorn robin]

i have no ideas for this theme

[dawn ivy]

Even giving some guidelines pokemons for the idea would be fine

not a forced use but (think of; ) thing

[thorn robin]

if only it was birds or amphibians again

[quartz locust]

Giratina's probably a good one to go for. 🙂

A cosmic being that's pretty horrific. 😅

[dusk schooner]

Deoxys is a good one too

[quartz locust]

Deoxys is a great choice. 😄

[dawn ivy]

i really am not fond of deoxys, it being head or body x(

[quartz locust]

Deoxys / Tentacruel with purple gems for its red jelly things, I'm up for the collab. 😉

[thorn robin]

i had a spooder i was working on but i'm not sure if the design works as a cosmic horror

[thorn robin]

great i'll start the scketch

[dawn ivy]

Have funs :>

just not really my type of contest theme for this time

tho i did work with a nightmare palkia

when i thought i wouldnt :')

[dusk schooner]

Well that's fair enough, why bother joining a contest that you're not gonna have fun with eh?

[dawn ivy]

indeed ^^

[dusk schooner]

I'm curious to what this fusion is now tho

[candid karma]

im never gonna enter a contest because
1: dont have time
2: gets kicked out first round, cries internaly

[dusk schooner]

It shouldn't matter if you win or lose. As long as you have fun making the actual sprite. Losing first round doesn't mean you're bad or anything

[tall moss]

thats one of my mermaids https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/543958354377179176/846609480620048414/380.73.png

[candid karma]

@silver merlin thank you for making katten flaten

[candid karma]

oh jesus

[silver merlin]

i didnt even make it

[candid karma]

wtf how

[silver merlin]

@fallow bough Would you like to explain it to him?

[dusk schooner]

Flatten lore

[candid karma]

flatten matten

[quartz locust]

This is basically what I'm suggesting, but in a world where it's not a mermaid. 😂

[silver merlin]

[candid karma]

somebody make katten ballin

[silver merlin]

grats @dusk schooner @compact saddle

[compact saddle]

yo

[dusk schooner]

Thanks

[compact saddle]

finally all this time of trolling came together for something

[tall moss]

eyyy congrats guys

[silver merlin]

kiwi nice sprite you made for second place too

[tall moss]

thanks, i worked super hard on the lines especially

[dusk schooner]

Thank you. And congrats on your placement too. You guys did great

[compact saddle]

gratz to 2nd and 3rd placements

yo @dusk schooner im sorry you couldnt get 1st place man, at least you got 3rd

[silver merlin]

yo @silver merlin you kinda suck, didnt even get in the finals smh

[dusk schooner]

The space texture you guys did on that Reshiram is awesome

[compact saddle]

katten, i recommend you separate the pings/fusion on the 3rd placement text

it looks like they did a collab for the two sprites

[dusk schooner]

I'm sure most get the general idea that they're separate

[burnt bane]

That do be an epic win

[compact saddle]

when stan feedback clutch

[burnt bane]

not the one I was rooting for in the finale tho

[thick atlas]

congratz

[dusk schooner]

Thanks guys

[quartz locust]

Absolutely amazing sprite took the win, all the others were brilliant too. 🙂

[dusk schooner]

There were alot of fun entries

[compact saddle]

@dawn ivy really surprised your milotic didnt make it far

[brazen pawn]

I didnt XD

[dusk schooner]

Me and Scarecrow made a doubly wide sprite yes

[brazen pawn]

D: bully xillo

[compact saddle]

xillo banned, did 3 collabs

this is the second time xillo exceeds the collab count in contests

[dusk schooner]

There wouldn't be rules if there weren't ways to ignore them, obviously

[compact saddle]

blaq's gonna get one of his 3 banned gifs

[dusk schooner]

I laugh in the face of tenor ban gifs

[silver merlin]

[severe dust]

xillen bannen

[thick atlas]

im still here if someone wants to do a collab for the contest. i think i wont do a solo one

[wind topaz]

@fallow bough what’s the policy on sponsored collab entries?

[fallen adder]

what mean

[fallow bough]

Depends on if the sponsored contest allows it or not.

[tall moss]

hm i somehow i dont think thatll be relevant to the next sponsored comp 🤔

[fallow bough]

:eternalkiwi:

[dawn ivy]

so the pokemon from the list can be fused with any other pokemon right? and it doesnt matter if theyre head or body?

[tall moss]

both have to be smol

[fallow bough]

Both Pokémon must be from the list.

[dawn ivy]

thanks, wasnt certain :>

[dusk schooner]

Onix my favourite smol lad

[tall moss]

onix is your only kaiju option

[fallow bough]

:onix_pet:

[dusk schooner]

Rhyhorn kinda too

[tall moss]

first place: rhyhorn/onix
second place: onix/ryhorn
third place: rhyhorn/wailmer

[fallow bough]

You didn't even give Scyther the time of day.

[dusk schooner]

Well he is like 5 feet tall, with none of that rhyhorn bulk

[wet flax]

I can't use unown

[wind topaz]

This is a testament to how bad of a Pokémon Onix is

[dusk schooner]

That moment when probably every other pokemon on this list has a higher attack stat than Onix

[tall moss]

make gamefreak give it an evo before the 2 weeks of the comp is up

[wet flax]

[dusk schooner]

Sigilyph

[fallow bough]

I wonder if Frogman dreads the idea of Pokémon getting new evolutions, because he'd have to add them to IF to be consistent.

[dusk schooner]

Gen 4 was the one to add alot of evos to older pokemon too. What if the remakes follow-suit and end up adding like 20 pokemon into the game

[fallow bough]

Doubt it. There was a lot of backlash about the new evolutions in Gen IV. It's why we haven't really seen any since.

[tall moss]

maybe if they didnt make half of them ugly af

[dusk schooner]

Oh i'm aware it's unlikely. But a man can dream

[fallow bough]

You can't just judge all of those evolutions off of Magmortar's ugly face.

[tall moss]

rhyperior exists too

[dawn ivy]

i just dont like tangrowth, the rest is quite okay

[fallow bough]

Rhyperior's having a good time.

[tall moss]

and mamoswine

[fallow bough]

Mamoswine is cute.

[dawn ivy]

Thiperior was my disaster pokemon

I love the idea of rhyhorn and rhydon

[dusk schooner]

Mamoswine is cool. Rhyperior sucks though

[fallow bough]

I respect Rhyperior for having such a good time despite being so orange. I'm not gonna beat him down any more than he probably already does to himself. If he can smile through it and live how he wants, then I can support that.

[dusk schooner]

But I don't care about Rhyperior's feelings so I have no qualms about bullying him for his appearance

[fallow bough]

I respect that too.

[dusk schooner]

Finally, a mod that encourages harassment

[dawn ivy]

[thorn robin]

new sponsored contest

[fallow bough]

No entries yet.

[thorn robin]

little cup

might be fun actually

[normal dock]

Lol

[naive summit]

9 max entries?

wild

[weary pagoda]

There's Lileep, good enough for me

[fallow bough]

What can I say? Kiwi's insane.

I had to talk her down from 20 entries per person.

[naive summit]

good lord

[fallow bough]

I said "no Kiwi, you will scare the mortals".

[tall moss]

i almost did 12

[thorn robin]

how many pixels taller can the sprite be than the actual mon

[fallow bough]

She just roared at me from her home in the abyss.

[thorn robin]

[thorn robin]

cause poses and stuff

[tall moss]

if you make a tangela/vaporeon-sized entry i will only judge you silently

[fallow bough]

Just don't make Swinub a full 288x288 monster.

[thorn robin]

k

[dusk schooner]

Do it for me

[thorn robin]

now i wanna do a swinub monster

[quartz locust]

A few years ago I tried editing its colours to be more consistent with Rhydon's. 😅

Also, if kaiju sprites aren't allowed, can stuff that might adhere to that be disqualified? 😮

[fallow bough]

Here, have this as a base.

[weary pagoda]

What do you mean by Kaiju? Does that mean you cannot purposely make a super duper big sprite just to make it look cooler?

[dusk schooner]

this doesn't change the fact that Rhyperior looks like he has a thinning hairline - impressive since the entire line is hairless

[tall moss]

ye the main body of the sprite should be the same size as the normal sprites of that mon, appendages can still take up more space ofc

[misty acorn]

I was gonna post a funny meme, but since I cant open gimp or paint, I'll just explain it

Take the "Kiwis Little Cup" picture, remove all the mons and add this picture. Comedy has been archieved

[weary pagoda]

Okok, fair.

[fallow bough]

Kiwi actually picked this contest because she exclusively drinks out of small china mugs.

[dusk schooner]

If you want to make a big sprite, Onix is there

[weary pagoda]

Onix is always here for you

[wet flax]

there's still how to make kaijus

[fallow bough]

:onix_pet:

[dusk schooner]

But were we ever here for him?

[fallow bough]

:cheese_ban:

[thorn robin]

no kaiju sprite here

[weary pagoda]

We all ask where is Onix, but no one asks how is Onix 😔

[tall moss]

kattens jirachi here is a good example of what to avoid in terms of kaijuness, vs, what you should be aiming for size-wise

[fallow bough]

🔫

[tall moss]

theres been some fantastic lorge jirachis made recently too https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/543958354377179176/862351081606742036/362.381.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/543958354377179176/865619244414664724/381.201.png

but for this contest were looking for leetle smols

[weary pagoda]

Thanks a lot
But, yeah

[dusk schooner]

I wonder if the yellow on that 2nd one counts as "appendages" or if that's the body

[tall moss]

its an unown

so who knows

[dusk schooner]

It's unowable

[tall moss]

[weary pagoda]

I don't now anything about Unown, but u do

[quartz locust]

Thinking of doing Mime Jr / Wailmer where the fins are part of its hat, so the whole upper half is hat. 😄

[silver merlin]

ill go back to not existing

[fallow bough]

Katten Farewellen

[tall moss]

noooo katten

come back

[silver merlin]

okay

exist

[tall moss]

now make 9 entries

[quartz locust]

How many can we make? 😮

[fallow bough]

Why do I even type things?

[quartz locust]

Oh we are actually allowed 9. 😮

Cool. 😄

[silver merlin]

i honestly do kind of want to

[fallow bough]

I should just make it a mystery where you have to ask me a maximum of 20 yes or no questions and enter based on that.

[silver merlin]

can you submit entries to the contest?

is this a contest?

[tall moss]

do i have to enter a sprite?

[dusk schooner]

Can we use electronic devices to make our stuff?

[tall moss]

is it about pokemon?

[thorn robin]

can we exist during the contest?

[silver merlin]

h?

[dusk schooner]

Do you like the color blue?

[silver merlin]

pfft coming from the red devil

[thorn robin]

ironic?

[dusk schooner]

I'm not red, I'm slightly pink

[thorn robin]

it's more of a magenta actually

[silver merlin]

i'd just call it a color tbh

[tall moss]

carmine

[thorn robin]

yes

[dusk schooner]

Best red, I have a paint tube of that

[thorn robin]

Bordeaux is pretty cool too

actually is pretty hot

[dusk schooner]

Actually it's considered a cool red

[thorn robin]

so it's warm

[dusk schooner]

No, warm reds lean more towards the orange side of red typically. Paint fax

[silver merlin]

[tall moss]

[silver merlin]

[misty acorn]

[thorn robin]

right now i have a 100% chance to win the sponsored contest

[normal dock]

Damn xD

[tall moss]

entries are closed guys

punko wins

[thorn robin]

i want to thank kiwi for this awesome contest

[normal dock]

Punko is to op xD

[fallow bough]

@thorn robin what are you gonna do with your $135?

[thorn robin]

not sure

[tall moss]

run a sponsored comp

[thorn robin]

maybe i'll invest in my future

or run a sponsored comp

or spend it all in food

[silver merlin]

@thorn robin 😤

[fallow bough]

[wet flax]

or spend it all on me, then i spend it on other things

[silver merlin]

[tall moss]

🍦

finshed his ice cream

[silver merlin]

good job @fallen adder

[tall moss]

there could be 21 025 unique entries to the spons comp

[silver merlin]

@ every-

[tall moss]

wed only need 2337 people to enter

if they all do 9 entries

we could do it

@everyone

[silver merlin]

i could also just make 2337 alts, and make 9 sprites from them all

[tall moss]

do it

[fallow bough]

I could do this.

[tall moss]

you could also not

[fallow bough]

I could be Blaquaza but more.

[silver merlin]

me too 🙋

[compact saddle]

yeah no

[pastel fog]

too bad I already made this and can't send this to the contest

this is my best bebe sprite

[tall moss]

make him some friends

[pastel fog]

I will

[rain stump]

make him again

I wanna make a goo bebe now

[tall moss]

9 solosises

go

[pastel fog]

guys stop t-posing it's not funny

[quartz locust]

I'd have absolutely entered a Shinx sprite. 😅

[pastel fog]

I'm claiming wailmer/lickitung

[rain stump]

do the bébés have to be fusions between things on the list only?

why did I get accented e’s

[tall moss]

you can enter a shinx sprite 👀

[quartz locust]

I mean one I'd already made. 😛

[quartz locust]

Flabébé. 🙂

[rain stump]

ok

bebe time

[wet flax]

1 punko's sprite and 6 cheepoof's sprite, I think punko wins

[normal dock]

xD yes

[wet flax]

"no entries"

[fallow bough]

What I said isn't incorrect, you've quoted me in such a way as to make it seem as though it is.

:cheese_ban:

I will make an emote for every regular user if you're not careful.

[wet flax]

you don't need

I already have mine

🧀

but can also use a trash emoji

[fallen adder]

It's ok. I'll make a sprite and save the contest

[tall moss]

time to get my 73 alts to make entries

[fallen adder]

Then vote for yourself 🧠

[fallen adder]

Can't say this theme hasn't successfully got my juices going

[tall moss]

bta juices

[fallen adder]

[sleek drum]

i love this contest with all those small and cute pokemon's and onix

[tall moss]

im excited to see how different the entries are

[wet flax]

baby emojis

[wicked onyx]

i would say id make an entry this time but id be lying to everyone including myself

hhh

[tall moss]

you say that every time too

[wicked onyx]

i know

cause it happens every time

i never learn

[tall moss]

how about you say nothing and let your actions speak for you 👀

[wicked onyx]

especially ironic cause i didnt learn this time either

[tall moss]

👀

[wicked onyx]

i have such a stupid idea

its dumb enought that i might have the motivation to finish it

[patent lance]

fuck it

i will make a sprite

for the contest

[compact saddle]

doubt it

100 bucks

you wont make a sprite

[patent lance]

sprite done

[compact saddle]

💰

[patent lance]

👐

[silver merlin]

💸

[weary pagoda]

I actually had 2 sprites to make
Maybe a third one later

[burnt bane]

-third stage contest that started 5 days ago: 5 entries
-sponsored contest that got announced not even a day ago: 10 entries

[compact saddle]

whats entry max again lmao

[burnt bane]

9

[compact saddle]

hmm

might give it a go

[dawn ivy]

Cant you just ban him/her?

[silver merlin]

cant

[thorn robin]

@moderator

[dawn ivy]

message the mods about her for spamming every damn channel

[thorn robin]

doesn't spam in the gallery cause can't

[dawn ivy]

all other channels in problems have it now as well

[silver merlin]

im just gonna purge all the messages

[thorn robin]

pretty sure that "user" is just a bot from some streamer

or something like that

[quartz locust]

To be fair, a big part of that is also small fusions being quicker to make, generally. 🙂

[fluid harbor]

Its a youtuber doing a speedrun of getting banned

[quartz locust]

What a weirdo. 😂

[thorn robin]

guess he won

[silver merlin]

good job curro2017 🙏

[thorn robin]

it's churro i think

[dawn ivy]

curry

[thorn robin]

curry is so good

[compact saddle]

stephen curry

[thorn robin]

never tried that

[quartz locust]

Tim Curry's brother. 😂

[compact saddle]

mans is the reason i like basketball

[dusk schooner]

I didn't know Tim Curry played Basketball. He really is a talented individual

[compact saddle]

[patent lance]

[tall moss]

[weary pagoda]

Yes

Then make two alts so there are even more entries

[wind topaz]

@tall moss Um, you can only have 3 entries to the sponsored ocntest, right?

[burnt bane]

|29th July - 12th August| |Entries: 9| |Can Collaborate: NO|

🧑‍🦯

[wind topaz]

I can never find the thing I'm looking for when I read the messages

Always I somehow miss the only bit of info that I'm searching for

[thick atlas]

i was looking for a pokemon related to astronauts

[burnt bane]

3 people ive never seen entered 👀

cant find any of them with the discord search function either 👀

their sprites are...interesting

[thick atlas]

smurf accs

[thorn robin]

kiwi's trying to win her own contest

the concepts are interesting tho

[burnt bane]

if these are kiwi sprites then mmm, i wonder what happened to her

[thorn robin]

~~she made beginners mistakes so she couldn't be detected ~~

[tall moss]

2 of the unknowns arent even users on here 👀

[burnt bane]

wait how the fuck did they even find it?

[tall moss]

haram and neomau dont seem to exist

[thorn robin]

they can be friends with catdesu

and they thought it would be fun if they all entered

[burnt bane]

i cant find that catdesu either

[thorn robin]

then i guess they're ghosts

or hackers

or ghost hackers

[tall moss]

@civic ledge do you know haram and neomau? 🤔 id suggest you three check out the pins in #spriting-discussion and post your work there for some helpful feedback 😄

[burnt bane]

kiwi hacker herself

also kiwi, give me an idea for the contest i could potentially do?

[thorn robin]

bebe

[burnt bane]

||you want me to do a bebe??||

[tall moss]

uhhh

larvesta gligar

[burnt bane]

👀

[thorn robin]

very interesting

[tall moss]

rhyhorn golett

[burnt bane]

im gonna try this one

[thorn robin]

rhyhorn/grimer

[tall moss]

make it

[burnt bane]

looks more aron-y?

[thorn robin]

i need to finish lickytung/gligar first

[burnt bane]

so i wont forget 😎

[tall moss]

i wonder how many entries there will be total

[thorn robin]

so far i have 2 😎

but i plan to do one everyday so i guess i'll do the 9 entries

[tall moss]

[burnt bane]

shit ton of entries is gonna make the voting so damn long, oh boi 😂

[thorn robin]

but the judging will be fast

specially when kiwi does it

[tall moss]

sweats bc i havent jidged the cosmic horror entries yet

[thorn robin]

she does it so quick and so detailed it's incredible

[burnt bane]

we still need to wait on the normal voting phases tho punko

[thorn robin]

i know

[tall moss]

i keep wanting to make entries for my own contest

[burnt bane]

do it, then give them to me to enter with

[thorn robin]

[tall moss]

i enter 9 chinchous

[pastel fog]

hmm I'm curious

will judges write an overview on each of 32985438 bebe sprites?

[quartz locust]

It's not a judged contest, it's a poll one. 😛

[thorn robin]

There's also judging for smaller prizes

[quartz locust]

Why do I always miss small details when I'm looking for them? 😂

[civic ledge]

oh thanks they aren't from the ser =ver i just show the contest and they submit

[compact saddle]

help me i want ideas for the sponsored contest

[misty acorn]

Nincada heads have potential for epicness

[fallow bough]

I haven't outlined how the voting will work yet, but don't worry, it won't.

[burnt bane]

Promising😂

[fallow bough]

It won't be long, not it won't work. 😂

[burnt bane]

OOOH

Whahahah😂

Right that makes more sense, although you saying "don't worry, it won't work" wouldn't surprise me either

[thick atlas]

only an hour left...

[rain stump]

unhour left @contest manager

I’m not gonna do anything anyway lol

[thick atlas]

seems like retro likes last minute speed spriting

[fallen adder]

Shading when you shift the colours is difficult 😭

[patent lance]

[quartz locust]

Are people who aren't on the server allowed to participate? 😮

[patent lance]

you'd have to ask a contest manager

@fallen adder

[fallen adder]

Is there someone not on the server participating?

[quartz locust]

Two people. 😅

[patent lance]

if theres a cash money prize it would work out i think, but in terms of giving roles to someone that isnt here is a bit difficult

[fallen adder]

who, in which comp?

[quartz locust]

@fallen adder

[patent lance]

yeah i just saw

its on kiwis contest

They did indeed post sprites

[misty acorn]

I think they joined afterwards tho. At least one person?

[thick atlas]

back in the days some from reddit participated too

[patent lance]

i cant even tell what herams fusion is

[quartz locust]

And the rules were changed to forbid that, which is why they're hosted here now.

[patent lance]

I say they shouldnt be here to be honest

Ironic that a contest with cash money gets infiltrated by people

[fallen adder]

I mean. we have no way of contacting them if they aren't on the server

[patent lance]

exactly

[fallen adder]

actually

Sent a friend request to both

[quartz locust]

I think they should be allowed to join only if they're part of the server. 😅

[patent lance]

^

if they dont accept, or join the server

OUT WITH THEM

[fallen adder]

[civic ledge]

oh okay

i just send them the contest

okay i gonna get them on the server if the are wake at this hour

[fallen adder]

@quartz locust why didn't you send me this message instead of kiwis

[fallen adder]

👌

[quartz locust]

Because it included the names of the people. 😂

[fallen adder]

But you didn't give me the full story 👀

😔

[quartz locust]

Scrolling up would have achieved the same effect.

[fallen adder]

It wasn't a continuation tho. people said other stuff

😔

[quartz locust]

Is Dual Champion the role you get when you win with a collab? 😮

[fallen adder]

yes

[quartz locust]

I've given it to myself. 😂

[fallen adder]

Why?

[dusk schooner]

Because blaq and stan won the last sponsored comp

[fallen adder]

No one gave it before 👀 ?

[thick atlas]

id be a dual champ too...

[fallen adder]

Duel champion is only given after we started using the role. Otherwise you have regular champion

when you collab win?

[thick atlas]

aerodactyl contest with kiwi

[fallen adder]

Ye, that's like a month before

[fallow bough]

I've ungiven it to you because I don't give out roles for sponsored contests.

[quartz locust]

https://tenor.com/view/bunnies-what-confused-meh-gif-13712192

[fallow bough]

Or I would, but I can't for some reason.

[fallow bough]

What part of what I said confused you? You got a monetary prize.

[quartz locust]

But I also won the contest with Stan. 😂

Oh, I forgot this was the final round so it's a judged one, good luck everyone. 😄

[fallow bough]

But it was... Sponsored?

[quartz locust]

It's still a win.

[fallow bough]

I don't give out roles for sponsored contests.

[quartz locust]

You should. 😅

I always thought that you did. 😂

[burnt bane]

Lies

[wind topaz]

@weary pagoda What is the other half of your Jirachi fusion?

[patent lance]

spiritomb

[weary pagoda]

I'm scared of the fact I've got this question twice

[patent lance]

shh next time ignore it

[wet flax]

What is the other half of your Jirachi fusion?

[patent lance]

Whats the other half of your spiritomb fusion

[weary pagoda]

What I will say is : It's a fusion

[fallow bough]

It's never come up before because it's always people who have already won that win them. But I don't consider the system to be the same, so I don't want to weight things like that in the same way. Cash prize for one, Discord role for the other.

[wind topaz]

Well, you can edit it more to look like Spiritomb before you submit to the gallery if you wait until after the contest

[weary pagoda]

Yeah, this is what I plan to do
If the fusion is not clear, it's not good

[patent lance]

it wasnt clear :(

[weary pagoda]

Shush it's perfect

[quartz locust]

Don't take the literal one win I had away from me. 😦

[patent lance]

i thought it was a fakemon when i saw it first

[weary pagoda]

I don't know if I should laugh or cry

[patent lance]

both :)

[weary pagoda]

Let's go with both

[wet flax]

I haven't even seen it yet

[quartz locust]

LOL

[weary pagoda]

^

[burnt bane]

I feel this pain

Why do we need to be such a bitch about champion roles

likes besides the fact no one would even notice blaq has it due to some ugly purple color being there instead

[quartz locust]

Oh brother, my brother. 😢

[burnt bane]

[weary pagoda]

Yes, I wonder if we really need to specify how we won our contests

[burnt bane]

How did you win again skeln?

[weary pagoda]

I've got the most votes

[quartz locust]

So did we. 😮

[weary pagoda]

The only part I like with creating multiple champion roles is that Kiwi now has four of them

[tall moss]

😎

[tall moss]

this contest has such strong sprites the lowest scores i gave were 7s

[fallen adder]

7. the cursed number

[weary pagoda]

What do you mean, it is a magical number

[compact saddle]

no clue what was my lowest
