Playing The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog without having any context for who the characters are is such an emotional rollercoaster. 90% of my Sonic knowledge came from cultural osmosis and an anime I watched as a child, and now I'm being introduced to these characters at a birthday party and they're all insane. The lizard is a ninja who can read my mind, the cat is a princess from another dimension, and the bat just tried to rob me.
TLDR: the ArtFight staff received a heavy hit in terms of a lot of staff quitting in rapid succession last year, which included someone in a very high-up and important position, who has not been replaced for this year. This has led them to be even more understaffed and overworked than normal for 2023’s ArtFight. This is why early bird signups have yet to be released, 3 days until the fight begins, and why it took multiple days just to get Discord roles out. Moderators are not receiving communication from admins, and there is only one coder working on the site’s development all by herself.
Furthermore, ArtFight has had a lot of issues and incidents in the past; a LOT of which could be explained by disorganization within the staff, such as someone not receiving their $300 donation reward, staff not communicating with each other, not reading reports, and lack of communication.
Basically, ArtFight staff is disorganized, not good with with communication (with each other and non-staff), understaffed, and overworked. They are a small team doing this in their free time for no pay, so bear that in mind, but the cracks are starting to show with 2023’s ArtFight, as there is mod talk of postponing the game before it has even begun, among other things.
