20K Discord Event! -

BIZARRE BOTSTRAVAGANZA HIT 20K MEMBERS!

TWENTY. THOUSAND. MEMBERS. WHAT THE ACTUAL !?

To celebrate this absolutely unhinged milestone, we're throwing an event Nov 9th-23rd that takes away your favorite crutches and asks one very important question:

CAN YOU ACTUALLY COOK?

200x5 EVENT: PUT THE LOREBOOK DOWN.

You have 10,000 tokens, 47 lorebook entries, 18 character images, and somehow your bot still says "What are you going to do?" after every message.

Welcome to 200x5, the event where we take away your toys and see what you can do.

---

THE RULES:

- 200 TOKENS MAX for Personality, Scenario, Intro, Example Dialog, AND Bio. FIVE categories. TWO HUNDRED TOKENS EACH.

- TWO PICTURES. PFP + ONE EXTRA. Your 30-panel manhwa is NOT getting submitted.

- NO LOREBOOKS. 90% of them are used for the dumbest stuff anyways. It's mostly just hidden bloat.

- #200x5event tag on your bot.

---

THE CHALLENGE:

Make the best bot you can with 200 tokens per category. Give us a banger hook. Give us a scenario that doesn't expire after three messages.

No token landfill. No definition the length of the fucking Bible. No picture slideshow masquerading as a bot. Probably can't define the characters' favorite coffee or how they smell like vanilla and ozone. What a shame.

Just creativity, resourcefulness, and clever simple characters and scenarios that are actually fun and engaging.

Think you're HIM? Think you're HER? Think your writing can survive without a 9,000-token lorebook that destroys everyone's context window and costs them half of their proxy use for the month?

THEN PROVE IT.

---------

Full rules for the event:

#1: 200 tokens max in the following categories -

* Personality

* Scenario (extremely important to set tone and give the bot a feel and longevity past the intro)

* Intro (multiple intros okay, but 200 total token limit, so good luck splitting it.)

* Example Dialog (more useful than many people think. Take advantage of it.)

* Bio (copy/paste the bio in an intro or something to find out how many tokens it is)

#2: Two pictures allowed. The PFP and one more. I don't care where the second picture is, but be aware if you're putting it in an intro the link will use your tokens. You can also have an event banner and a link that does not count toward picture or token limits as long as the banner does not contain characters from your bot. You will be shamed if you make one of your pictures a whole ass comic strip.

#3: No lorebooks.

#4: Event tag is 200x5event. Please use that tag on your bots.

Bots will qualify for the event contest if they meet these criteria and have en event banner.

The goal of the event is to challenge yourself to make the best bot you can within limitations. You'll need to be clever with your idea and hook, careful with your tokens, and attractive with your pictures. This event is about creativity and efficiency.

No bloated defs, overdone bios, lorebook token dumps, or dozens of pictures to carry you.

There will be voting done by the loremakers on the best bots. There will be prizes most people don't care about. Top 2 even get to request a bot that a BB loremaker will create.

Most importantly, have fun and everyone is welcome to join. Whether this is your first bot or your thousandth we would love to have you participate.
