This Challenge ended up having some...complicated drama involved.
I ended up seeing this Challenge on the 2nd day it was out and decided to participate in it anyway - (when I actually was supposed to go work on my new OC drawing), thinking that because the tag said "in a few days the results will be announced", that I literally had time to render stuff, (like how it was for "Paint" that took 4 days to close and Synthwave that took 3 days to close) and so I was taking my time, trying to stay relaxed etc while the AI did it's thing in the background.

Unbenounced to me (cuz I don't have notifications turned on), sometime between 6 pm and 10 pm, Mr man (the host), left a comment on my QTed Post. When I open the app (3 hours later) to check how much time I have left, I see the comment posted "2 hours ago" where he's telling me how the contest is about to close. My first emotion was shock and then disappointment, cuz like I was still kinda editing this particular piece while the AI was in the background generating more content for the Challenge and I know by the time everything was done, I wouldn't have made in time anyway. I replied with how disappointed I was, but then later my other feelings (like being upset) caught up to me and I ended up pointing out the guy's fault on the way he timed the Challenge to be unequal to his previous ones in the form of a question. (I don't think he liked that I did that).

Then I deleted that comment and posted all the renders anyway, explaining that it took me 7 hours to make all of them and that I still wanted to share it so everybody else could also see it too. (I didn't want to keep it to myself cuz like...I didn't want to feel like I wasted my time for nothing). But then I made a mistake leaving out some of the results cuz all the renders on my phone are all mixed up/ not in order, so I deleted that comment, reuploaded everything I meant to show in the pic slots - most of it being the same images, but now with even more extra attached. (I don't think he liked me making re-adjustments to my comment either, but it wasn't like I could "edit the comment", given that Threads doesn't have an edit button yet, so...)

After this, I don't think the host likes me anymore, cuz I noticed that I would feel this sense of bitterness and anger/ karen vibes comming off from their account on my profile. (It does feel like razor blades going across your face if you're curious to what that vibe feels like.) That and the fact that they don't like or engage with my Challenge Posts to them anymore. For me, this is rather awkward to experience cuz, like...they're still following me <.< I feel like if you as an adult have some kind of problem, you should block me and go, rather than stick around, but that's just my view.

But hey, even though I never got to join the Challenge, atleast you guys get to see the renders too. Maybe it might inspire you to incorporate some elements or colours etc into your works one day. Who knows (shrugs.)
