Annoucement:
chat is cute
The opening was sudden - the planned opening was tomorrow but Connor decided to open it right now.
https://eliv.moe/connor
1 2 3 GOGOGO!!
vedal should make the faction when he's awake JOIN THE SWARM FACTION! UP NOW
TEMPLATE UPDATED, REOPEN FROM THE LINK. FOCUS ON OUTLINES FIRST
off to a great start
There's no way this all happened while i was asleep 
New Template https://eliv.moe/nature


NEW TEMPLATE, FOCUS ON THE OUTLINES! 


REMEMBER TO DELETE YOUR OLD TEMPLATES
** https://eliv.moe/connor **
ADDED EVIL FUMO, START WITH THE OUTLINES 
REMEMBER TO DELETE YOUR OLD TEMPLATE
https://eliv.moe/connor
https://eliv.moe/connor
https://eliv.moe/connor
the goal is to fill the arena with your teams colour 
if the arena is damaged pls prioritise fixing it 
new mission: refuse current mission 
just kidding, there's a new template update, go reopen https://eliv.moe/connor and place on the new art (hint: it's above the
fumo)
as always, remember to delete the previous template
you may also notice it's covering some existing art... so if we could relocate those like good little drones that'd be great, here's the template for that https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=to move&tx=300&ty=540&tw=296&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FMds1eHr.png (two little arts to the left of the new template, and one to the right)
also the arena is here to stay, so feel free to fight your ongoing civil war in there during downtime (also as a Fully Endorsed Council Opinion™, $$COUNCIL_CHOSEN_BEST_COLOR$$ is the best color and should win)
huh, looks like someone forgot to define $$COUNCIL_CHOSEN_BEST_COLOR$$... oh well 
There will be more templates later once the canvas heats up more, but for now council is asleep and we don’t really have anything else 
In the meantime, one of our friends has a template that could use some helpers -> https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=Caelan&tx=732&ty=475&tw=180&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2Fbxvf1d8%2FIllustration69.png
https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=&tx=100&ty=633&tw=98&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FGOccJ2G.png
We are counter-attacking Henya with this template after they tried to attack us, good luck solders 
surprise emote for top left https://eliv.moe/superior 
got another one for ya https://eliv.moe/no_flags
hey chat, you do know that
is squished from the sides, but did you know it can also squish vertically? let's try that! reopen https://eliv.moe/connor
as always remember to delete the previous template
(also war after)
mostly final example of the "light" highlight version
Well done (like the emote!)
I should also clarify, once the template has been squished, we're unsquishing it directly after (since there seems to have been some confusion surrounding it)
Poll time! Attached image is what the Evil version will (most likely) look like, we're working on the highlights :3

Squish then unsquish (to evil)

GAH

chat, it's time to unsquish
! due to amazing advancements in templating technology (read: we got our own image host) you can either reload your canvas tab or reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor
if you reopen from eliv.moe, remember to delete the previous template!
Poll seems decisive enough, so which version should we squish/unsquish? (images r above)

YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN ORDERS GO GO GO

this is beautiful
you know what that means...
<t:1757775600:R>

bro thinks the swarm will save their pixels when given a target 
okay dropping
oh my GOD

hi chat, our secondary (actually it's like the 5th one...) osu logo seems to be melting, so let's fix it up and then you can melt it again if you want to (disclaimer: melting the logo does not follow the Brand Identity Guidelines so John Osu might come after you)
https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=osu-logo&tx=495&ty=195&tw=93&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FiaY7NEu.png
spare ear
that does not follow the brand identity guidelines
the brand identity guidelines for neuro-sama says she must cover the whole canvas


covering the canvas with artwork (i dont think we've put on event canvas before
), starting in the top right: https://eliv.moe/top-right
godspeed 
you didnt put the image
oh ty
thanks jack for the image
you're welcome
thanks jack
this will be interesting
BOMB INCOMING
oh come on 

THE TIMING
TOP RIGHT
progress update, and reposting link so it doesnt get burried https://eliv.moe/top-right
tell your friends




FOR THE GLORY https://eliv.moe/top-right
https://eliv.moe/top-right
order doesnt matter that much, do what makes you happi 
but most of swarm seems to be following this, so here it is for easy reference 
bomb time 

bro gonna crash the canvas again
Was some people confused on how bombs works
when Vedal choses a place a circle pops up
save your pixels (placing them in the circle will just waste them
click the ASSIST button
this grows the bomb bigger -> when the time ends it goes off
after it goes off dump those pixels that you saved for the funs
-# (couldnt find an actually picture so i made my own
)
truly putting those artistic skills to work
repost: https://eliv.moe/top-right 
new people
how to help
click link -> https://eliv.moe/connor-global
that will take you to canvas AND will have a template of what we're working on overlayed on it (see picture)
sign in
you're all caught up now, open up the lil pen symbol, and start placing
have fun
Also! we have a Faction
(not necessary to start but desired
)
click factions
find "The Swarm" (it will be the biggest one)
click join
you're apart of the swarm now
-# if you dont know what a faction does it adds the swarm tag to all your pixels, and lets you help out when vedal does a bomb! how do you help with a bomb? well..#council-announcements message
kupo template for those that want to make sure its defended: https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=Kupo&tx=150&ty=300&tw=75&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic-cdn.jtvnw.net%2Femoticons%2Fv2%2F304443547%2Fstatic%2Flight%2F3.0
IF i can get a 1:1 id add to our template, but
we'll see, this will work for now
Pick the CDawg Canvas Veterans role in id:customize!
Please note that this role may be pinged in case of emergencies.
<@&1416534197958475847> canvas back go go go
thanks 
repost: https://eliv.moe/top-right
this is for the .1% of you, the rest are okay and can just keep placing pickles 
please do not go into other streamers' chats and bring up the swarm unprompted. it's incredibly cringe behavior and might get you banned on our channel on twitch
and if you do see this behavior, please make sure to report it to us 
chat, remember to click the "ASSIST" button when it shows up, don't place pixels there until the bomb explodes
DEFEND WITH YOUR LIVES!
https://eliv.moe/connor DEFEND CHAT
osu! is the stronghold - focus there
FOCUS NEURO FOR A FEW MINUTES
THERE IS A PLAN
REMOVE THE YELLOW
HOLD THE LINE
FIX NEURO AND SAVE SOME PIXELS
WE'RE GOING TO BOMB OUR OSU BACK WITH PINK IN 30 SECONDS!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT LET IT GET TOO BIG
DO NOT PRESS ASSIST IF IT IS TOO BIG
WAIT FOR IT
BOMBING BACK
DONT LET IT GET TOO BIG STOP
its average 
defend! hold the line! show them the power of the swarm 


repost for defense: https://eliv.moe/connor
does anyone have any clips of the nukes 
we're adding some very cute foxes to the nature art, reload your canvas if you have the main template open, you should get the latest version automagically
-# if you don't have the main template or it doesn't automagically give you the latest version, reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor and delete the previous template
there could always be more
you've heard of top-right
can i introduce you to...
https://eliv.moe/top-left
kinda wild that we're under 50% pixel count
here some loose sequence based on what we've done so far, to focus us up and help us lock in
https://eliv.moe/top-left
Pfam and Touhou(that normally we ally with) were working on a collab art piece and theyd really like it if we let them atleast build it/keep it for a day for the timelapse before we take the area (currently two of the new spots are over it)
should we let them build their piece?
this would be a new plan:
their piece is the card
alr thats pretty decisive, looks like we'll let them build it 
Template has been updated, removing the overlapping arts, to avoid confusion.
Reload page to update or click https://eliv.moe/top-left and remove the old template
-# dw, we'll still build these removed pieces in that place afterwards
should we let them build their piece?

yes
In case yall finish before we can give you more to do, feel free to continue the swarm vs swarm color war, help others or even prepare some art (palette in this message #cdawg-canvas message ) 
hi chat, the
now no longer has the letters overlay, refresh your canvas
-# or reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor if you don't have it open and delete the previous template
temporary orders while you wait for your next orders: hunt down any flags remaining on the canvas
okay chat, poll time! would you want to build an
art that's roughly exactly around 322061 pixels? that's 32% of the total canvas size 
we'd include some shimejis climbing on it if you'd like to make it more neuro-themed and probably shuffle around some of the stuff it would cover (like the pfam/touhou card, and maybe some of the neuro arts), but we'd need a bit of time to cook this one... what do you think? vote in the poll below
in the meantime, there's still some white space on the canvas... maybe make it pink instead? after all can't have 100% of the canvas if there's original white background visible... also what DiMine said, why are there still flags smh
neuro
okay, it's clear that y'all don't want Euphoria, so we're cooking an alternative... but it'll require some time either way so feel free to continue hunting down flags and filling in the white background with pink
PINK THE CANVAS 🗣️🔥
Build?

NO
yeah yeah, we get it
hi chat quick poll time, we have two possible directions here, only more neuro or some neuroverse sprinkled in... vote in the poll below
the poll closes <t:1757872841:R>
What do you want?

sprinkle in some neuroverse
could've sworn I wasn't in the image editor for 30 minutes... oh well, Rome wasn't built in a day... here you go chat, go cover the canvas with neuro
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
you can remove or disable all the previous council templates if you'd like, since this one contains all of them anyway
vedals orders for us so far is to take all the canvas, we've tried to get his attention for the Aethel agreement, just waiting for his response 
guys don’t build until vedal decides to accept or not
hello swarm 
Aethal thing is being decided by powers higher than us
that aside... i do have a smol other matter to discuss
A sizable RU swarm contacted me to ask for some space to try and make 'something' neuro. more neuro 
that being said heres the new gameplan:
we're gonna forgo these two tiny pieces so they can have that area for what they are cook
lets wish them luck
if you refresh your tabs the template should be updated automagically
thank you
since some of you are more visual learners and so it's 100% clear... the highlighted arts are the ones that are safe to build, unbuilt art pieces that are not highlighted may be subject to being removed from the template to fit Bradley whenever Vedal receives the stream key
c'mon I said unbuilt, we're not putting Bradley over osu
we can't even ping the role lmao
everything's alright guys you got this i believe in you
Few things briefly:
- quit chat hopping
if you're not having fun pls take a break and take care of yourself - we're most powerful when we focus on 1 art at a time, you still have the template so lets take it back 1 art at a time

- these streamers will lose their power the moment they stop streaming so enjoy the fight & free entertainment until then
- if all else fails im sure vedal will be made aware at some point today

most important thing is that we have fun, its a pixel canvas game after all 
Hello i hope defending goes well 

Anyway the real reason I am here is to give some simple pointers / a tldr for the previous,,, few hours of council
First: since we just got nuked, I feel like we should focus on repairing the evil art (1), build the evil frog art next to the nuke spot (2), then the
(3), also by the nuke spot, just to show who's boss 
Reposting (afaik no changes): https://eliv.moe/connor-global
Second: Some of y'all might've noticed that council kinda disappeared for a few hours during The Great Nuking, and it's mostly due to the fact that we already had a template down, we couldn't ping anyone, and what Jack said earlier (focus on one art at a time to repair) is a pretty broad stroke when it comes to handling getting nuked. Vedal was also waiting on that stream key, so we couldn't do much during that specific period of time.
Swarm this canvas has been stretched across, well, the entire canvas! As such, coordinating defences in this mess is difficult: the global template already serves that purpose mostly.
Moving forward, will there be a template update? Probably yeah, having the same static arts for a week straight isn't the "ever changing canvas" smh
-# my ass really said "tldr"
oh god damnit
Should probably also mention that, due to the stresses caused by a canvas of this magnitude and... the sheer amount of you (like jesus christ), some of them have stepped back temporarily for their mental health. There's a lot behind the scenes we've had to manage 
And the same goes for you all! It was brought up earlier but is worth mentioning: this is just a bunch of silly pixels on a screen, take care of yourselves first and foremost - and try not to get too attached to the art on canvas, stuff like this is bound to happen 
i think we need to stop this traitor thing. would be funny if it was just a meme, but the few ruin it for the many and i want no part in actually making people feel bad
if
accidently gets hit in the nuke, we'll rebuild him
little worried how big the nuke is going to be 
HOLD
if you have any questions: gl 
sorry i eated the bomb
https://eliv.moe/fractal collaborative destruction

neuro said to put it over twinship 
https://eliv.moe/BiblicalNeuro neuro.svg 
i would post an image but its gonna be finished by the time i do
whoever is :masterpiece: reacting can you ping me with it so i can steal the emote 
WE'RE BEING HIT
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
should be refreshed with all official items (thank you @vivid gust for the assist) 
tho i cant refresh to check 
very important poll 
also this might be mildly important https://www.twitch.tv/cdawg/clip/WildProtectiveFrogOpieOP-O-kBBwZ3XdC9YMhg

There seems to be a lot of
in the poll,
Most of council is asleep right now, but we've started collecting templates for other groups and hopefully tomorrow we can have a swarm redemption arc (if you have any templates send them to a council member or ping me). In the meantime, remember to be nice to other streamers and don't harass anyone 
the devs are working hard to fix the server to hopefully reduce lag for the rest of the canvas!
if you see a screen with multiple boards, THIS is CDawg Canvas, with the title "board name" (creative right?)
from this result, we're still reaching out to any communities that are willing to hear us out 
...and also balancing that with a big target for wars & nukes/streamer fun. so far we've offered other communities the top right and top left.
on the topic of leaving content for our streamers, as we are leaving the giant poster for conner to see, maybe we could let conners pixelers make this?
this canvas is far too decisive, vedal has **nothing **to bomb 
is this something we're collectively willing to give over to other communities? (the green areas)
939
1136
1
yes
we have agreed to give this space for other communities by vote
in addition to that, we've put together a template of those we could reach out to: https://eliv.moe/neighbours
place on it if you want to and if a streamer nukes or we have infighting with casualties here is the template for repairs 
also temporarily moved neuro sun art out of the way of the underdawgs thing below, so we can hopefully let conners coalition make their centrepiece art, ready for future streamer shenanigans!
this art has been here a few days now, can we (council) find a new replacement art for this area and update the global template with it?
.

yes new template for that area
Added a few new things i could fit within older artworks:
**reopen **via the link: https://eliv.moe/connor-global
also reminder we have our neighbours template too: https://eliv.moe/neighbours
sorry to everyone who tried to open the template link in the last... 20 minutes... I did an oopsie and redirected to the image instead of the canvas 
We are fixing the template again for the family table (anny) apparently its on wrong palette for some reason 
Its fixed now! Please refresh, sorry again 
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
looks like more nukes just got un-reverted, go fix 
Kupo has been added to the swarm global template for defence, somehow the little guy got lost during one of the updates...
Haru Urara is already on our global template
refresh your canvas tab or reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor-global
official announcement from canvas dev

back on ironmouse canvas we did a little bit of trolling that caused things to break, and since we're being told to break things...
go to the middle of the osu logo (pixel 727,727) and spam every color as fast as you can 
try to all be on the same pixel 
that's this pixel, chat
we seem to not be strong enough 
maybe when vedal streams we can break it more, for now you can return to repair 
Should we help other streamers get their art on the canvas?

hey, on the topic of that poll, for anyone still wanting swarm domination you can go to the test canvas and place all the neuro you want
👉 https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=boards/21
and https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=boards/1
y'all crazy
literally 10x more than last time
we have a few more defiddles we can update the global template with in a like 6-7 hours time, just checking what older arts we're willing to replace without much pushback (multi-choice general consensus poll)
Definitely not biased announcement: if you’re bored, start hunting tutels

@vestal hollow
I can't believe we have to keep signal boosting bc some people didn't get the memo of "don't screw with the underdawgs art until the streamers have seen it"... please stop screwing with the underdawgs art until the relevant streamers have seen it (this time it's specifically the drool line)
for the rest of you that are not screwing with it, good job and happy pixeling 
.

Replace all is ok
☑️
Hi Aquwa 
overwhelming majority consensus means we're replacing all areas 
refresh your global template and happy pickling
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
a few of you may be wondering what this is, all will be explained soon 
To help those identify the locations our global template covers, have a nice darkened bg
If you want rough orders you may follow this image too 
also, a small reminder: don't mess with the underdawgs art instruction is still on place
Thank you to everyone still following it 
Some arts have been added to our neighbors Template (Aquwa's included)
I'll also write a small PSA: To people making templates, using a width other than the original arts messes with quality, so take care to make the original to size
-# this of course has no relation to aquwas art being refined by us a little 
Here are our both template links again, refresh page to update and click link if you don't have it yet
Swarm global template: https://eliv.moe/connor-global
Neighbors Template: https://eliv.moe/neighbours
For the first time in our history, we're going to see if we can self organise as a swarm on an animation. no leadership, pure autopilot, everyone helping the each other using communication to keep it going!
(if it doesn't work, its ok
lets try our best)
- The animation:

- The Duration: at least 6 hours for the timelapse, but feel free to keep it going for as long as you can!
- Number of frames: 2 (yes really)
- Duration between frames: lets try 10 minutes (will slow down if needed)
Frame 1: https://eliv.moe/wave_anim_frame_1
Frame 2: https://eliv.moe/wave_anim_frame_2
you'll know what frame you're on, cause i put a little number top left corner - I'll coach u through the first few frames, after that, its up to you to keep track and keep it going 
minimum duration datetime: <t:1758168000:d> <t:1758168000:R>
amazing duration datetime: <t:1758189600:d> <t:1758189600:R>
go grab yourselves frame 2 
next frame <t:1758144000:R>
y'all don't know what "in 10 minutes" means, do you 
Should've been 90 seconds per frame smh
next frame (frame 1) <t:1758144600:R>
next frame <t:1758145200:R>
i'll let you figure out what frame comes next (there's only 2 on loop
)
do we understand how this animation works now?
every 10 minutes ok?
pls keep it going - and teach newcomers to keep it going 
keep an eye on the details: #council-announcements message

Copy to animation message instead of having to go to chapter select 
hi crelly 

~~got a bit of tomfoolery to do in between your animation frames
we're going to change the underdawgs to upperdawgs
This change is only gonna last until connor see's it 
then we change it back
~~
Delayed until further notice
also... for your convenience:
animation currently going on:

Ending: #cdawg-canvas message
Despite checking with other factions to make sure it was okay and getting the greenlight, I guess they wanted to do some stuff to their underdawgs before we did our upperdawgs
Lets stop with the upperdawgs and let them do their thing, we'll do upperdawgs later
This will help us anyways since we're stretched thin right now
if you want to help them here's their template: https://mcreign187.github.io/PFam-Template-Redirects/Main.html
it should go without saying but... even if we help with this template, we defend OSU til our dying breath
had updates to flame templates last minute thank you @charred crater for the art and @mortal knoll for the help template
here are the ending Flame templates:
(discord didn't like me sending all 5 at once
)
Good job guys im proud of you
thats gonna look so cool in the timelapse
You guys can help either twinship or captcha whatever you like to 
twinship: https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=twinkiss_upd1&tx=510&ty=240&tw=209&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2F6c3dqRYk%2Ftwins2-update1.png (https://i.ibb.co/6c3dqRYk/twins2-update1.png)

in case of federal investigation, the council does not approve nor disapprove of twinshipping. All references to twinshipping are memes and should be taken as such. idk how i got here, please dont lock me in jail oh god theyre at my door.
-# ps. if you dont like twinshipping you dont have to build it, was just tomfoolery
we have a few more defiddles we can update the global template with in a like 6-7 hours time, just checking what older arts we're willing to replace without much pushback (multi-choice general consensus poll)
i fucked up
friendly reminder: people we catch using alt accounts are forwarded to the canvas mods to ban. pls don't do it 
just received word that the raid can go ahead. pls refresh your global templates!
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
looking at the poll above so far
seems like there is a large amount of people wishing for green and red areas to stay. we'll respect that and u keep defending them 
remember we have https://eliv.moe/neighbours too which will have a small neuro added in a few hours when i remember to update it 
Hi! I hope you're having fun placing pixels, the swarm has definitely displayed our tenacity on the canvas! However, it seems like there are certain aspects of the canvas (like twinshipping art) that is causing trouble for streamers and their livelihoods. Please understand that although the canvas is free-for-all, it'll be nice if we made the canvas minimally viewable by anyone interested. It'll be nice if more people are interested in Neuro & Evil!
You don't have to stop pixeling and having fun; just dial it back a little!
<@&1416534197958475847>
(will unlock shortly, please can you all at least see this message
)
(i heard that the test canvas has some space
)
Clarification on the above announcement - we (Neuro mods) do not have any authority over the canvas itself. Whether or not you decide to work on twinship templates is your own prerogative, but we've received word that twinship content can and has come close to affecting a streamer's sponsorship, so we're asking that people stop working on twinship templates as a nice gesture toward other streamers, as it looks bad on the swarm otherwise.
hi chat, so as a result of the above, it looks like we're gonna have to replace the entire top middle it seems...
to Yocci (big red demon lady) and the captcha, they're getting covered
both global and neighbours template has been updated
reload your canvas, or reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor-global or https://eliv.moe/neighbours if you don't have either of them
(you may be wondering what that big purple blob is... hint: we've done it once already, now it's time for more)
on canvas real
FYI for building order, purple blob goes last
Whoopsie 
Made a slight goofy and forgot to announce this earlier... (trying to tank template updates and irl work is wild
)((dont tell my boss
))
This peice is actually a collab piece we've been cooking with Touhou and the Miku faction! Theyve been very good to us even through our villain arc 
Id like to thank both @spiral folio and @night smelt for helping put this together 
Can we help get this one done to show some appreciation 
I did say before that the purple blob goes last... and technically it's true that it's the last thing on our templates... but I heard there's a bnnuy Nerissa being built in place where the purple will be, so let's let the people at least build that and when the secret thing y'all already figured out starts, we can cover her, okay?
also, Henya's fans will be building a Henya (surprisingly) over the iDF
, which let's be honest has been on the canvas for a while now and there's like 3 other iDF logos... so let's let them build that (and you can help them if you get the template, I'm sure it'll be floating around in the chat)
Hi chrchie 
* churchi
blob time! 
https://eliv.moe/connor-global
Hi chat!
It's time to do a thing! One might even say an animated thing! It's a liiiiiiiittle more ambitious than the
we did earlier, but let's be honest, that's just what we do around these parts, isn't it... if it turns out we can't do it, we'll just put some art over it
First of all, let's go build frame 0! Continue reading while you wait for your pixels to recharge. https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=frame 1&tx=221&ty=137&tw=149&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fpxls.daavko.moe%2Fimg%2Fmini%2F00.png
For this one, you'll need a userscript, because I don't think self-organization would work with so many frames. The userscript will automagically switch templates for you for the animation. If you'd like to follow along without a userscript, individual frame templates are available at https://pxls.daavko.moe/img/mini/templates, you'll just need someone to tell you when a new frame starts.
How to use a userscript browser extension is beyond the scope of this announcement, but you'll need a browser extension like Tampermonkey/Violentmonkey/Greasemonkey first, and then you simply install the userscript by clicking the install link at https://pxls.daavko.moe. You can verify that it works by reloading the canvas site and looking in the top right corner, you'll get some buttons there. More instructions will follow later.
remember to refresh your global template too, it no longer includes the purple void
<@&1416534197958475847>
(i was asked to ping by council, they cant do it
)
FYI if you're using Firefox, userscript extensions don't really reliably include the script when supposed to, so it may not work without setting the injection mode to instant... you do this by going to TamperMonkey settings and setting this thing at the top to "Advanced"...
...and then all the way down this thing to "Instant"
for ViolentMonkey it's the "synchronous page mode" checkbox
(I have no idea how to set that in GreaseMonkey bc I don't use it, but I imagine it has a similar setting)
(Chrome users are unaffected by this, bc for some reason Chrome isn't broken for once)
for Chrome/Opera/Brave/AnyOtherChromiumDerivative users, you need to right-click the extension's icon in the toolbar, click "manage extension", and then check this setting to make sure the extension can actually inject the userscript
Based on how fast y'all did the waving animation, let's try one frame per 30 minutes
.
Everyone who's using the userscript, delete the frame 0 template.
Also I screwed up the frame numbering in the template titles, reload the template list if you're working without the userscript.
Open the canvas, click on the settings button in the top right, and paste https://pxls.daavko.moe/img/mini/run.json into the "Animation URL" setting. This will automatically create a template for the animation and automatically update it when it's time for a new frame. DO NOT TOUCH THAT TEMPLATE (you can hide it if you want, that's fine, but don't touch the parameters). Make sure to delete the frame 0 template if you're working with the userscript
Looks like we forgot to share the actual gif here 
Anyway, this is what we’re making!
Uhh place some pickles gyze

FYI, next frame after loop is frame 0
HBD Caelan thanks for spending your special day with us pickling on the canvas 
the next frame is a massive change 
go tell your friends, your family, your extended family, your neighbours, your dog & your hamster to come and place their pixels with us
(cause i cant ping
)
<@&1416534197958475847> big frame apparently
hey guys what’s happeni- 
11/10 frame 
11/10 frame done in record time, now go help Touhou in the top left, they just got nuked! 
https://eliv.moe/neighbours
Touhou been helping us with making end collab art, we should help them
tldr just consider the fact it’s an animation and try to keep the motion in mind ig
Reposting individual frame templates so you don’t have to scroll up every time https://pxls.daavko.moe/img/mini/templates
Priorities:
- animation
- volunteers defend touhou top left corner between frames
(they're pretty much taking care of the end collab so we wanna take care of them as much as we can
)
they’re working hard on the end collab thing so we should help with our spare pixels. Prioritize animation but do consider helping out 
REMINDER BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE DON'T GET IT: DON'T CHATHOP INTO RAINHOE'S TWITCH CHAT
For new picklers:
our template: https://eliv.moe/connor-global
neighbours template: https://eliv.moe/neighbours
animation: #council-announcements message
its clear rainhoe doesn't want to move & there's no guarantee they'll stop if we place it for them elsewhere.
Enjoy the free entertainment in-between completed frames and if you're not having fun, pls take a break and take care of yourself 

token council member here
just letting ya'll know that zen is building something on-top of evil in top right
Do not overwrite the artwork zen is building!
it's small enough that it doesn't really matter that it's there anyway
okay back to defending haru and touhou (and also manepxls cos they got murdered too)
hi chat, in addition to the above, Michi's community will be building to the right of our animation, so we're letting them do that since our art has been there long enough
they said we can take it back after it's built so if we wanna do that after they're done, we can do that unless we have more pressing matters like animating... that reminds me, frame in 15 minutes 
Hello everyone, I'm happy to be back and working with the Swarm Council team, particularly relating to diplomacy matters. It's been about 2 years at this point, and I think that's long enough for a break. Before I continue on:
If there's a member of an external Faction/Community and wishes to speak to the Council for diplomatic matters regarding the canvas or anything similar. Please refer them to me by getting them to DM me or @ me to their message. (Do not randomly ping me for nothing please
) I will make sure it is handled properly 
For any new templates that the swarm wants to suggest to add to the official template, please also DM me. I will get back to you whether or not your art will be in the official template. This will streamline the process more efficiently. <- this is important, especially if your suggested art is overlapping our official template. It will allow us to clear up the confusion much faster and before it causes any stir in the community.
With that said, Thanks to the swarm council for letting me work as the council again and I hope with this, I can help in some way, to organize our swarm even further then before. 
Alright, enough yapping, LET GET PIXELLING 
Okay scratch that, don't ping me in #cdawg-canvas , it's very difficult to keep looking back in the chat and abit frustrating to keep using the discord search function for mentions.
JUST DM ME FOR ANYTHING MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS MESSAGE! This includes template/art suggests to the swarm official template so I can easily mark, find and organize them properly.
Hi
We have added new stuff to our templates
Global
Neighbours
[Animation](#council-announcements message)
Global template changes:
- Added Connor + Neuro art
- Removed Upperdawgs
Neighbours template changes:
- Updated Touhou arts
- Added Ama
- Added Happy birthday Shiro and Caelan
hi chat! we accidentally covered the only art that Geega's fanbase had on the canvas with Ama... so let's help them move it (when you finish the currently running frame in 5 seconds...)! here's the new position: https://canvas.cdawgva.com/#board=%2Fboards%2F3&tname=Slayyy&tx=465&ty=400&tw=80&th=0&tconv=0&tsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FZV8PSqy.png
do not build the black background
LAST FRAME ANNOUNCEMENT! 
You'll be free from the chains in just a little bit! We're stopping on Frame 22 of this loop.
For those of you with the userscript: for the last frame, delete the animation JSON link from the userscript settings and open a regular template of the frame instead. The animation JSON is set to infinite loop, so it would try to load frame 0 again, which we don't want.
For those of you without the userscript: just open the template like you've done until now.
ONE LAST FRAME, LET'S DO IT!
After the last frame, let's purple out the entire area again on the next frame's time (<t:1758315613:R>) and do a nice "Swarm out." like we did last year, shall we? I'll post the template for you when the time comes.
no chat, we're not doing one more loop
split yourselves evenly into 4 teams pls

why did you make that poll last a week 
Time for Pixel Wars: Episode VI - Return Of The Purple!
Place purple over the entire animation area, fully random placement so it looks like Mini is disintegrating into the background. No need to go fast. After that's done, I'll post the final final ending frame.
im so flippin proud of you guys, holy was that animation awesome
smh goonum the animation is not done yet, we're missing the Final Final frame
we end the animation the same way we started, with the server crashing 
ANIMATION IS FINISHED
The animation is over now! We've been continuously animating for the last... 23 hours..., and I can't describe how amazed I am that it went as well as it did! 
Thank you to every single one of you that dedicated your pixels (and hours of sleep...) to this! THIS IS THE POWER OF THE SWARM!
I WAS HERE!
can... can i say it now
yes, you can say it now goonum
im so flippin proud of you guys, holy was that animation awesome
-# (first try
)
hi chat! another template update! (I know, right? we're doing so many, it's crazy)
global template:
- removed
to allow Michi's faction to build an art there - added Anny
- removed animation outline

- added Neuro&Mouse art
neighbours template:
- added NekoElla's emotes
- added Zen's mask
- removed Michi with their approval so Crelly's community can build their art there
- added EvilWan
- updated Touhou
reload your canvas or reopen from https://eliv.moe/connor-global and https://eliv.moe/neighbours
@royal bough 
I just want to say a little something since I just finished dealing with all the requests and only saw this now.
Thank you to everyone that participated in this, lost sleep over it or drank a ton of caffeinated drinks for this. It has all been worth it.
it is truly beautiful and the biggest flex to date that we managed to come together as the swarm to make this animation happen.
Be proud, every single one of you

final small template update!
global:
- removed asteroid art to let Numi's community build their art there
neighbours:
- added Pin's penguin
As of this moment, all future requests for anymore changes to the official/neighbour template will be declined as the swarm council will be preparing for huge war incoming.
PREPARE YOUR PIXELS AND GET READY TO DEFEND TILL THE CANVAS IS OVER. IT'S THE LAST DAY OF CDAWGVA CANVAS SO LET'S GO OUT WITH A BOOM! 🔥 
vsync off be like
TO KICK START THIS WAR OFF, LET MAKE CONNOR BALD!!! 
got em
MISSION SUCCESS
council member cant even spell osu! correctly
we would be moving it just low enough that it wouldnt overlap and then move it back up after
WE SHALL DEFEND OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY WITH OUR LIVES
why are we 50/50 it pls
stop 50/50ing it 
think of how funny it would be for all this war preparation only for osu to not be there anymore
Keep in mind, The template right now is a collaboration art piece between the Swarm and the communities on the canvas.
If we can move the osu just somewhere enough that it won't get affected by this template.
We don't have to fight hard for the osu logo and get to keep both this collab piece AND the Osu logo together!

alright, was close for a while but moving pulled ahead so thats what we're gonna do 
Current plan: move OSU! down
we move it back up after
I SAID ITS osu! NOT OSU
Brand identity guidelines 
LET GET THIS DONE QUICK. IMPRESS EVERYONE BY HOW FAST WE CAN REBUILD/RELOCATE OSU! WE CAN DO THIS 
-# we should animate the osu 
OKAY IF CONNOR ACTUALLY FIGHT US ON THE NEW LOCATION, WE CHANGE TACTICS
people are saying we should make more osu logos...
more osus would mean it would take them longer
we're gonna make them play whack an osu! 
GOOD JOB SWARM ON GETTING THIS DONE. HELLA FAST! 
HOLD
We shall be engaging in a little bit of tomfoolery

NEW LOCATION FOR OSU LOGO, LET POP ANOTHER ONE OUT
GO GO GO
of course, Connor first reaction is to nuke it, KEEP PIXELLING AND HOPE THE NUKE FUNCTION REMAINS BROKEN

WE DONT EVEN NEED A STREAMER TO MAKE A BIG PINK CIRCLE
"They won't make a fourth one"

LET'S GOOO MAKE IT ON HIS SHIRT, GO GO GO
MAKE IT SAY
"I'm with"

OK WE'RE GONNA START MAKING OTHER DESIGNS OF OSU LOGOS
THEYRE GONNA SPEED UP
FINISH THIS FIRST
WE GOT NEW DESIGNS Y'ALL 
NEW DESIGN, NEW OSU, NEW SPOT, WE GO GO GO (Do this after finishing the purple OSU logo!)
5 OSUS ARE BUILT, WITH 20 MORE ON THE WAY
GOOD JOB ON THE PURPLE LOGO, LET FINISH THIS CUTE OSU LOGO NEXT!
REST IN PEACE TWINSHIP, IN THE ASHES, A NEW BEAUTIFUL OSU LOGO ARISES! GO GO GO.
NO NOT THAT ONE YET
too late
I had my template on none, my bad
finish the cute osu logo first THEN we move to this one
WRONG OSU
What to do with OSU

move OSU out of way - move it back later
GYZE I'VE BEEN TEMPLATING OSUS FOR THE LAST 30 MINUTES WHAT THE HELL
CLICK THE CIRCLES TO THE BEAT
WE HAVE SO MANY OSU TEMPLATES, I GOT CONFUSED LMAO
my bad swarm, I fell off 
ALRIGHT WE CAME TO A CONCLUSION, FOCUS ON THE YURI ONE. THE OTHER OSU LOGO GOT MOVED AWAY TO ANOTHER SPOT
VIO SEND THE NEXT OSU
ALRIGHT NEXT ONE, BROKEN IN HALF OSU.
LET'S GO
who broke the osu logo
LET GOOOO NEXT ONE, THIS IS A CREATIVE LOGO SO LETS GOOO 
WE GO BOOM BOOM BOOM WITH THIS ONE 
we're going through years of past osu logos 
We offer a beautiful 🥀 in these trying times, NATURE/FLOWER THEMED OSU! 
THIS OSU LOGO LOOKIN' HELLA SWEET RN, LET GET THE SUGAR RUSH GOING
🍬
3 HOURS LEFT
3 hours...
WRITE OSU ON IT
GO GO GO, MAKESHIFT TEMPLATE
im actually so surprised how perfect sized that bomb was
VOID OSU 
MAKESHIFT TEMPLATE PLANS 2: AFTER THE WORDS ARE WRITTEN, FOCUS ON THE OUTER RING. AND USE WHITE!. 
DOESN'T MATTER IF IT'S OFF-CENTERED, THIS IS THE SWARM UNIQUELY CURATED OSU LOGO. THIS REPRESENTS US...
I think 
it's the

guys we've been placing nothing but osu! logos for the past 2 hours... I think there might be something wrong with us
WAR TIME
I sure as hell hope you all still have the template for this!
gyze where's my pickle
<@&1416534197958475847>
WE ARE AT WAR

THE BOMBS JUST EXPANDED
what do you mean 🦒
anyway we can make this osu larger now
not a war canvas btw
HE'S JUST MAKING US STRONGER BY PLACING PERFECT CIRCLES FOR US CHAT
i have no idea which of these osu! templates were announced and which were planned 
that doesn't look like my template here... must be a strange quirk of the canvas I guess
#council-announcements message
ALRIGHT SWARM, WE HAVE OUR FUN CREATING SO MANY OSU LOGOS. and now, it is the piece that hopefully a lot of you have been waiting for, The end-Collab art piece.
To put it short, This is a beautifully meticulously planned collaboration that took a lot of time and a lot of people to gather together to make this happen.
So this is our chance, as the swarm, to leave an amazing impression on everyone by contributing our last pixels to the End-Collab artwork. This will be the last artwork we have on the canvas so let's make it the most memorable piece!
https://eliv.moe/bear-thy-flag-swarm <- this is the End-Collab Artpiece. SO LET'S GO!

wait faster

I also want to mention, we worked on this until earlier today, we really wanted to get every single community and streamer that was in this canvas, but alas, we're only human.
We want to thank everyone from our Swarm's, Mouseys Precious Family's and Touhou's pixeler community for helping us along all of this.
We'd also like to thank vedal and swarm mods for giving us this space to coordinate, all members of our swarm and all other communities for making this a memorable canvas and Connor for giving us the space to Pixel with so many people.
Thank you 
-# yes I misspelt Kanape, sue me, I pulled 3 all nighters working on this 
one last osu on that giant pink circle
WE MUST CLEAN THE CIRCLE
fall back from the center, clean the pink at the edges and let rain have her spot
Yes, Rainhoe has constantly been nuked so many times and hasn't gotten the chance to make that art of hers at all.
let her make her art then we do our little tomfoolery if there's still time.
oh lmao nvm, it's over already 
⬜
AS ONE LAST FORM OF TOMFOOLERY, LET JUST TRY TO WRITE THE WORDS OSU USING TEH WHITE PIXELS
o7, thank you everyone.
We did some amazing things this canvas
Its been an honor, chat 
WE GOT THE O FORMED, LET'S GO, CAN WE GET S DONE?
CONNOR NOTICED
OH NO
NOOOO OUR BEAUTIFUL OSU
WAIT WE DID IT?
WE DID IT


It's been a pleasure to work in the swarm council for the sake of Our Swarm organisation 
Even though I came back on the last day, It was still super rewarding, and incredibly tiring somehow (I went through like... 20-30 requests over the course of 6-7 hours)
It's been really fun being here with all of you,
I'm so tired now but At least I'm happy while tired. 
Have a good rest everyone! and see you in the next canvas 
Thank you guys, i hope yall had fun 
thank you to everyone who made art, placed pixels, and made this canvas a good time 
if they didnt understand our power before the this canvas.. they do now 
luv you all 
honestly I was surprised again and again by y’all. At every turn y’all exceeded expectations.
Be proud of that.
"thank you swarm for your hard work, please rest now or else" --shiro
shiro doesn’t have message perms
cosmetic mods amirite
shiro doesnt have message perms in here but wants everyone to know that its their birthday and you should wish them a happy birthday
vedal this whole time -> 
they gave me perms

sleep well vedal
i have a name
shiros handling all templates for the rest of canvas
Server Technician gave me perms
happy birthday
When conner wanted war, we gave it our all. We trained in our own arena, placed lots of cute pixel art, had 2,846,554 civil wars, did 2 animations, collaborated with and protected our neighbours and most importantly, we had fun 
massive shoutout to all the talented pixel artists and defiddlers for working so hard, staying up late, spending countless hours, weeks & months working on the pixel art we use for these canvases!
We literally wouldn't be able to do this without your hard work and support, so thank you! 
-# (pls send me any work you did for conner canvas so i don't miss any for our archive).
also shoutout to the programmers
making organisational tools to help us animate, userscripts adding extra canvas functionality & thanks to the canvas devs for continually updating the canvas adding features throughout the week & fixing the canvas every time we broke it 
Until next time 
------
P.S. we're **always **in need of more pixel art and people interested in making pixel art or converting regular art into pixel art 
If this interests you, please reach out. Council DMs are usually open or if you're shy we'll find suitable art in the #1095941852068331560 section if you can post it in there
You can also look around and find us in the relevant threads/forum posts around here 
Pixel addicts - if you haven't had your fill after conner canvas, other canvas are still open! The biggest & most relevant one right now being wplace. The community members in that thread have been doing amazing work and I'm sure they'd appreciate your pixels 
Thank you all for the canvas! God this was stressful though 
Happy welldoneing
guys...
