    Hello, I know you are probably very busy but I wanted to know how often custom avatars get updated. Am not sure if my application has been looked at cuz someone else filled it out as I don't have a badge but wanted to know how long it might take. I'm ready to wait but just wanted to know how long.
    Thanks!

    Hi Marty, I'm the guy that opened the August 30th pull request. I send you a DM recently on this subject. I don't want to rush you because you are probably very busy, but would it be possible to give me an estimated time where my pull request could potentially get looked at?

    Hey, you mentioned that in October Tier changes Araquanid moved from OU to NU. But in the image, it shows Araquanid moved from OU to UU. Which one is correct?

    Hi, Araquanid moved to OU from NU in January so as it drops out of OU it moves back to NU. I just didn't look too far when checking for recent big tier jumps; I caught the Braviary one and missed Araquanid.

    Hey I have a video explaining the April Tier Shifts coming up this week. I was wondering if it is ok for me to promote the video on the Tier Shift thread?

    Hi, in general advertising personal content in threads isn't allowed, but there will be a section for that kind of thing in a revamped subforum appearing soon, likely within a week.
    Hi, I was wondering if there was a place to discuss or talk about the usage-stats repository on GitHub? I'd love to contribute! I'm interested in outputting the data in a JSON format as well to make it easier to parse for other applications.

    Hi, yes actually there's a #usagestats-dev channel in the Smogon Dev Discord: spo.ink/dev

    hi, recently I've been working on 3DS-style battle renders for the gen IX Pokemon. since you seem to be the main person uploading new sprites to Showdown, I thought I should ask if there are any project specifications to be aware of (how should I determine output resolution? camera angle? etc.), and what the review/submission process as a whole might entail. thanks!

    Froslass is UUBL in DPP but only has Snow Cloak, which was recently banned from OU. Does that mean Froslass is officially Uber?
    Marty
    Marty
    Technically UU can unban Froslass whenever it wants because Snow Cloak is only banned in OU, so no.

    Didn’t think of that. DPP UU is devoid of viable Snow Cloak users, but metagames change all the time and with that comes new strategies. Past generations will always be played, so we as a community should keep an eye out for future metagame shifts.

    Hey Marty. I sent you a DM about usage stats and some analytics that I'm doing with them. Is that a good place to reach you? If not, where is the best place to chat? Thanks!
    Marty

    Hi, sorry I seem to have missed it entirely; I'll reach out on Discord.

    hey marty i just got to say thank you for always being timely in preparing the monthly usage stats, your work is much appreciated

    Heyy Marty, i got a question about the Metagame section in the usage stat index. It states the usages of Team archetypes. Now i first wonder how „the algorithm„ decides what team is for example a semistall or hyperoffense Team and also if when its a rainstall team does it count it for Stall and Rain as well? Thanks for the insight in advance keep up the great work.
