I think the /fortune command is not running.

[simple pasture]

It is, it works only once

Ah I see what you mean, use it in chat!

[weak violet]

Me too

[lyric trench]

Same here

[simple pasture]

@lyric trench @weak violet @static granite
#💬・chat or #🎨・art-chat

[static granite]

Didn’t work in chat. I’ll try art chat

Nothing

[simple pasture]

I just tested it not 10 mins ago with the chat

[static granite]

:(

Maybe the bot got overloaded?

[lyric trench]

Where do we get the prompt after sending it? My post just keeps disappearing

[static granite]

It’s not working right now.

[weak violet]

I'll try in an hour then

[lyric trench]

Ok. Thank you

[simple pasture]

Fixed

[simple pasture]

Fixed

[simple pasture]

Fixed, use !fortune in #🤖・commands

Seems that the bot got overloaded a little bit

It's been sorted

[lyric trench]

Thank you!

[static granite]

Can you trade fortunes?

[static granite]

@simple pasture 👀

[simple pasture]

Esplain 👀

[static granite]

If you get a fortune someone else likes, and they have a fortune you like. Can you agree to trade?

Or is trading not allowed?

[simple pasture]

Oooh

Okay it's allowed BUT you have to state if it's not your fortune and who it belongs to

Yeah that works

[sonic ibex]

so... like if I trade mine with someone, do we state that rn or do we write the statement and ping that person when we submit the artwork?

[willow agate]

Hey! How many entries are allowed per individual? Like is it fine if I want to submit one traditional and another digital artwork?

[muted wind]

Where do we get prompt

[simple pasture]

Pinged with the daily prompt ping, usually pinned in the #📅・daily-prompts too!

[muted wind]

So we get prompt for the event in the daily prompt?

[past zealot]

what happen if we get the same prompt

[simple pasture]

Ah, for #🎨・events ! You do /fortune in #🤖・commands !

[muted wind]

Ohh thanks

[simple pasture]

Can you explain which one you're talking about?

[muted wind]

The new one in the news paper

If that makes sense

[simple pasture]

Here!

[muted wind]

Ok thanks

[past zealot]

me and this person both got "tropcial paradise"
Or this the !fortune and /fortune different command

[median kestrel]

Is this also traditional?

and how do i know my prompt for my fortune ?

[sonic ibex]

[zinc nimbus]

Sorry, I'm new to this and not good at english, but I don't understand the prompt and what fortune means, can someone help pls?

[simple pasture]

The prompts do repeat! That's okay!

[simple pasture]

Yes! All mediums welcome!

[simple pasture]

Do /fortune in #🤖・commands !

[simple pasture]

Do /fortune in #🤖・commands !

Let me know if you guys have any more questions!

[past zealot]

alr thx

[zinc nimbus]

Ty!

[prisma cypress]

does anyone want to trade fortunes? Mine is “create a new type of weapon” and i’m not rlly into weapon design so i’d like something else :p

[median kestrel]

The command dident work

[simple pasture]

I saw that you got it!

Let us know if you need any more help!

[sonic ibex]

@merry valley

[merry valley]

Ye

Mine kinda sucks

[sonic ibex]

:))

[merry valley]

#🤖・commands message

You can have this if you want

[prisma cypress]

what’s yours?

[fickle locust]

I got "You will create a big mushroom monster king!" potentially open for trades but unsure, i like the idea of my prompt with no idea how to execute it lol
edit: sorry didnt realize this was qna oopsie

Question idk if i should ask here or not but

Does "Monster" have to nessisarily mean bad or hostile or whatever?
(like what defines the line between fantasy creature and monster? idk where to figure this out)
(i think i figured it out from google, but ill leave this here incase anyone wants to respond)

[prisma cypress]

i can trade :: i got “create a new type of weapon”

[fickle locust]

I saw ur message about that, idk if ill be able to do a weapon ive never been able to do stuff like that, i tend to do more landscapes and animals lol

[simple pasture]

Monsters don't have to be scary, we are going with the broadest definitions with the prompts

Your mushroom king can be just a pile of small cute mushrooms

It's all up to you how you approach it

[sonic ibex]

@simple pasture

[simple pasture]

Just state it in the post!

Sorry, forgot about that

[forest sun]

What counts as “animal” like obviously normal animals but in the realm of anime the line isn’t as clear
For Example: cat girls, people that can transform into animals (or vise versa), monsters such as slimes, dragons, mythical creatures, etc.
I assume for monsters if it resembles a animal it counter such as a Fenrir resembles a Wolf

I mean is a werewolf an animal?

[simple pasture]

Yes

Anything with animal features can count, think about prompts as having full creative freedom

[karmic marten]

Ver I don’t get the prompt

[karmic marten]

OHH I GETVIT NOW

I gottta do that commands thing

[simple pasture]

[urban hill]

sorry if somebody asked this already or if its a stupid one but where do we post our entries? 😭

[karmic marten]

In #🔵・submissions

Silly goose

[urban hill]

this made me laugh so hard you dont even know

[rustic tartan]

/fortune

[prisma cypress]

silly goose

you have to go to #🤖・commands

[karmic marten]

Not you stealing my words 😨😞

[prisma cypress]

fine, goofy goose

[median kestrel]

What was my fortune i forgor

[forest sun]

I used the Search function to search when you used the command in Commands and jumped to message

[vivid idol]

wait where do you see past winners i cant seem to find it😭

[simple pasture]

#📰・newspaper and they will be in #📸・featured soon!

[rustic tartan]

Sorrrryyy

[median kestrel]

thx

[karmic marten]

Your welcome

[karmic marten]

Btw how are winners decided for events like this

[forest sun]

So obviously first place is decided and gets a price but what of the other placements? Are they made aware of their placement?
Because as much as I want to ask for help (or if it’s even allowed) since it’s a event and competition I am going to try to get by on my own abilities for this one and would like to know where I placed to see where I’m at and how far I am from being able to take first (assuming I don’t that is)

[charred shore]

Excuse me, I saw the event was rewarding the best “drawing” however I was wondering if there is any potential for 3d art to receive the award?

[zinc nimbus]

I submitted my drawing in submissions but I can't see it anymore in the chat, should I send it again?

[simple pasture]

Make sure to add the text which prompt you made!

[simple pasture]

Of course, all mediums are welcome!

[zinc nimbus]

Tyy

[terse nova]

1. can we use !fortune again if we dont like our prompt? If so, how many times?
2. for the discord nitro subscriptions, is it nitro boost or nitro basic?

[forest sun]

1. it’s only once but you can trade with someone as long as you say who you traded with when you post
2. idk the answer to that one so you’ll have to wait

[junior garden]

The command isn’t working for me, I haven’t used it before, and did it in the commands thread. Is it down?

[simple pasture]

If you are taking Nitro, then it's a 5 month subscription to Nitro (the one that comes with boosts)!

[simple pasture]

The bot was down at the time, try using !fortune in #🤖・commands now!

[simple pasture]

Correct, thank you!

[hot granite]

What's the number limit for submissions?

[simple pasture]

1

[hot granite]

Can I repost after deleting my past post ?

[simple pasture]

Yes of course

[hot granite]

Thanks I was not setisfy

Have a good day 👍

[simple pasture]

You too!

[forest sun]

Btw my question never got answered.
Do we get told where we ranked or is it just the top place that knows their placement?
(This is my first art comp so idk these things)

[hot granite]

You can See in the 📰 newspaper channel how they do it. I think it's the first rank

[forest sun]

Oh yeah I see it now
Dang I was hoping to see my placement so I could my progress
Oh well
Thank you

[hot granite]

U can still progress if u ask for more advice

[forest sun]

Oh I meant see my progress like where I’m at in terms of
But you do make a good point I don’t need to know where I’m at to further my skills
After the event is over I may post again in #978708583090892830 to seek ways to improve it

[hot granite]

👍

[past zealot]

somebody might already asked this but can we use !fortune again if we dont like or struggle with our prompt

[simple pasture]

You can trade, but you can't ask again

[past zealot]

alr

[vivid idol]

is it ok if my dinosaur kinda looks like a dragon😭 💀

[vivid idol]

🥸

ill take that as a yes

[simple pasture]

Yes

[charred shore]

Are animated videos accepted?

[simple pasture]

As long as you create what's on your !fortune, yes!

[charred shore]

Thank you!

[sick pine]

What we'll have to do for submission of art

[simple pasture]

You use !fortune in #🤖・commands and get a prompt to draw, and when you draw it you post it in #🔵・submissions like how other people did

[sick pine]

It's like

Digital Not fine art

@simple pasture

[simple pasture]

Digital art is fine, you just have to do a prompt

Let me help you

I just saw that you got it, let me know if you need any more help!

[sick pine]

Like should I submit my drawing?

Which I have made

[simple pasture]

Does it follow your prompt?

[sick pine]

Na

[simple pasture]

It will be removed if it doesn't! All art needs to follow the prompt

[wraith sage]

Is this supposed to be purely my creation, or am I allowed to used references?

[simple pasture]

As long as it's not a 1:1 copy you are good

[versed tapir]

go to the #🤖・commands and type !fortune.

@simple pasture if we don't get a topic we like, can we try again or exchange for something else?

[simple pasture]

You can trade with others!

[versed tapir]

ok thank you

[pulsar tide]

I can't write anything in submission bcz I am new but I got my prompt and draw and sended it in submission.Is that count?

[forest sun]

You could sceenshot your prompt and submit the work with the screenshot

[novel frost]

would anyone like to trade prompts with me? i got the prompt “you will create a city landscape”

[marsh adder]

I got that to, I'm more of a creature or body horror guy if enyone wants to trade

[short gale]

So, the rules say Drawn art, does that mean only paper and pencil/digital? Or can I paint it with my water colors?

[short gale]

@simple pasture ^

[simple pasture]

All mediums are welcome for the events

[short gale]

Perfect thank you!

[weak violet]

Hi where is a # with live workshops? Like streams

[simple pasture]

#🎨・workshops and below it is the workshop stage where they are hosted

[past warren]

Hi, once the artwork is done, could you upload it on various social platforms before the event is over? Or is it against the rules

[simple pasture]

The event is judged by Directors for this round so you can upload it anywhere you want!

[past warren]

Yipe ^ ^

[vivid idol]

How do you get a print

Prompt

It says somthing like you must use the print from your fortune and how do I get that

Nvm

[forest sun]

I see you figured it out but don’t like your prompt
You can trade your fortune with another willing participant tho

Hey Ver would it be too much to ask if I could get some sort of break down or score when my art is judged
After seeing some of these other submissions I’d be surprised if mine won (although being as I’m still relatively new I didn’t expect to lol) but I would like to see what I need to improve on and what kind of level I’m on rn
If you can’t/ don’t want to that’s fine and understandable as you have a lot to go through already I’ll just have to catch the next workshop in time

[simple pasture]

I will give you a breakdown on what we look for and how we vote once we cast the votes

[forest sun]

Ok thank you

[outer gazelle]

is the subsmission still open?

[weak violet]

Thanks !

[simple pasture]

Yes for two more hours

[vivid idol]

When will the winner be announced r is it random

[torpid estuary]

When will they announce the winner?

[vivid idol]

Real😭😭

[forest sun]

Well they have to go through all the submissions and judge first so once they have time to do that

It takes time and I’m sure they’ve got other things to do too

[vivid idol]

I understand lol

[torpid estuary]

Oh okkk

[simple pasture]

Very likely today will be the announcement, just finishing up some other updates to go with the newspaper

[simple pasture]

Criteria we judge on are:

• how well your art reflects the prompt you are given;
• general understanding of art in the medium you are working in (proportions, rendering, line of action, color theory);
• stylization and how filled in the artwork feels;
• how creative you are with the execution of the prompt while still managing to keep it prompt related.

[humble zealot]

Sorry, but do you know when the results will be posted?

[humble zealot]

Sorry I’ve still not gotten an answer 😅

[vivid idol]

😭

[quiet salmon]

So True, It has been 3 weeks bro🥹🥹

[vivid idol]

got me cryn

[humble zealot]

😭

[vivid idol]

@simple pasture do you know when the announcment will be madeee??

not to be rude lol just wondering

[simple pasture]

Very likely tomorrow, I have been delayed with organization of the event so catching up on that, also it took a bit to cast the votes as there has been some amazing artwork this event
