Hello Custom Variants community, I’m back today with another update, seeing as many of you are wondering what is happening with CGA bot.
To start off, we currently have 6 NCVs and 3 WoFs registered in @CGA’s database. 3 of these 9 variants did not meet the posting requirements; however, a problem we are facing right now is that @CGA rarely ever updates posts, even when new game links have been attached. Another issue that we are unfortunately having is that it mistakenly labeled @0Pombo’s variant as automatically declined for violating the 2 variants per (7 days) rule. On August 14, it will have been more than 7 days since the new post, so please try reposting at that date to see if it works or not!
As for @1marker2maker3’s situation, he posted 2 variants a few hours before 7 days hit on the clock. Unfortunately, I was only able to relabel one of his variant’s as UR, and the other one still displays declined; although this wasn’t @CGA’s fault, it’s still somewhat inconvenient. On August 12, it will have been more than 7 days since those posts, so please try reposting at that date! I unfortunately can’t help out more than that.
Final thing in this update, @qilp is on vacation, and since he is the main programmer of @CGA, it’s gonna be a few more days until a solution is hopefully found. Testing shortages will also unfortunately be a problem, but hopefully this won’t be too big of an issue.
That being said, thank you all for your continued patience! I hope this won’t happen, but some variants may be UR for another week or two, and it’s frustrating for the CGAs as well…
