/las/ - Last Artist Standing: WTF I hate Lava now edition

>>2704986
FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The site is currently in the alpha phase of development and is being built around us as we compete so sometimes things go wrong. If you ever need any help send me a tweet @LavaFlake or shoot me an email [email protected].

What do we draw?

>Whatever you want. At this point there's no required topic so draw your heart out. Make sure you submit at least a half hour of work or you may get a low effort warning.

What's a low effort warning?

>The goal is to get people to draw every day by turning it into a competition. The low effort warning system is to prevent people from posting last minute, quick sketches when they're feeling lazy. If you receive a warning and it happens again within a month you'll be eliminated.

>This rule has been the cause of a lot of concern amongst newer artists so let me reiterate: this system is to police low effort content and has nothing to do with the quality of the work. New artists are more than welcome.

What happens if I'm eliminated?

>A new Last Artist Standing challenge starts every week. If you get eliminated then get it together and rejoin next week.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>This is a way to let new artists join in and to allow re-entry for the eliminated. Every week a new challenge is started. If you joined on week 1 and make it to week 2 then your daily submission counts for both the first and second Last Artist Standing. If you get eliminated then you're eliminated from both challenges and you'll be able to rejoin next week.

Will I have an advantage if I join later in the week?

>The winner of a Last Artist Standing will be the artist with the longest streak. If you join on day 1 and last until day 85 then you'll have a streak of 85. If there's only one person left in the challenge when you're eliminated but they joined on Day 7 then they'll need to continue on for another week. If they're eliminated before then, you win.

>>2705008

>>2705010
Remove everything about lavaflake and just put " Update at the new website: http://doom.moe "

>>2705016

>>2705019

Wait, that sounds bullshit as hell?
What stops me from splitting my submissions up like that to arbitrarily increase my submission count?

>>2705028
Nothing, absolutely nothing, that is why the "Submissions Count" leaderboard stat is completely pointless, because it's utterly trivial to abuse it.

>I was in such a bad mood yesterday. I wish I had written about it at the time because I’m struggling to remember exactly why. At the time the reasons were crystal clear but they’re already fading away. Part of it was the frustration of being mediocre, that I’ve talked about before (and I talkin the lower side of mediocre), and that’s not really an issue. It bothers me but it’s a problem with a solution that I’m working towards so I can shrug it off.

>Another thing that bothered me a little is that I have no artist I aspire to be like. There’s nothing I can look at and say “I want to be able to do exactly that.” I think saying that this bothered me a little was an understatement because yesterday I was scrolling through hundreds of images and couldn’t find anything I loved and the longer I looked the angrier I got.

>Some of the highest rate submissions are so fucking boring and I hate having to wade through them to find something interesting. I’m talking about the photocopiers who 1:1 copy a photograph or even worse the people who do a stylized photocopy with that rainbow watercolor bullshit. I’m assuming as they approach the end of the photocopier skill tree they realize there’s nothing creative about what they’re doing so they need to use other mediums like watercolor or smear paint with their fingers in an attempt to separate themselves from other artists who do the same thing, because their art doesn’t.

>>2705080
It was a thinly veiled dig at Choob.
Poor Choob. I feel bad for the guy to be honest.

>>2705087
>And yeah I know this sounds angry or bitter or whatever but I promise I’m not angry at them or what they do. I think it’s boring as shit but if they enjoy it then it doesn’t matter what I think. My issue is that they make it harder for me to find the works of people who are actually doing interesting things. I know that this is a “me” problem and a problem for people like me, people who think copying references exactly instead of using them as inspiration or for information detracts from the work. A year ago I went down that photocopier path for almost a month and I’m so fucking glad I hated it.

>One last thing, and I know I’ll regret saying this because I’ll be guilty of it, is that I’m so tired of seeing fanart. I 100% understand why people do it and why other people like viewing it but I have the same issue with fanart that I do with photocopying. 99% of it doesn’t say anything that the original hasn’t already said. It’s just some artist’s version of another artist’s idea. They’ll put their style on it because they need to differentiate themselves from all the other fanart but the original concept is the same and it’s something I’ve already seen. That’s obviously not all fanart because there’s some out there that enhances or reinforces the existing concept/idea but that’s rare.

>I dunno, this is probably a “me” issue. I’m working so hard to get good but it’s not just because I want to make good looking things. I want to get good because it lowers the brain-canvas barrier which is super important since I want to make people feel things. I think this whole ranty post is about me not liking art where the artist doesn’t try to express an idea or make me feel something. I had trouble finding art like that yesterday and it made my bad mood worse the longer I tried.

What the fuck happened to Lava? And why the fuck is there a new sight? I kinda dropped out of LAS a few months ago, so I'm a little outta the loop. Can someone explain?

>>2705132
Lava went full potato mode so someone else made a LAS clone

>>2705132
Stopped appearing in the threads ever since he had to have medical treatment (entailing half a dozen spinal taps), he never returned nor made any updates to the website afterwards.

Doom.moe got created because people were fed up waiting for Lava and getting radio silence regarding LAS.

>>2705133
>>2705134
Ok, thanks for the reply. How new is Doom.moe? It looks like it was only started up this week?

>>2705136
It had a trial run back on the 12th of September for a few days, and recently reopened just before the start of this month for Inktober.

>>2705136
same shit different colors

>>2705141
It doesn't got the creator blogging on their diary everyday with no locks.

>>2705141
I feel like DED is a more mature platform. it fixed the issues LAS had and people just focus on getting good. I have more confidence I'll make it there.

>>2705160
>people just focus on getting good
What? Isn't DED only for inktober? That's fucking nothing.

>>2705164
no, it launched in october

>>2705160
DED's got a lotta potential, I look forward to the structured official challenges and such

>>2705164
Not only for Inktober, it just so happened that Inktober was a good time to launch it.

>>2705168
>DED's got a lotta potential

it will die away just like it, not because of a cripple host, but some other mundane reason

Hello everyone, I was old member of the las but people think I was a troll so I leave. I'm wanting to join again as I am little bit more better now but I am now seeing that there is new server for drawing every day. Should I still submit to the old server or submit to the newer server. I do not know which one is in use. Thanks for any help.

>>2705222
The old one of course. No one uses the new one.

>>2705222

> that functional, slightly broken english

R-rover?

>>2705223
So I should put my work on the las server? Thank you.
>>2705224
No. I am other guy. For hint I tell you I always make use of the pink lines.

>>2705234

well, fuckyoumang, fuck you, mang.

>>2705234
yeah stay in the LAS autist containment board

Why does Lava even bother to post on tumblr when he has own blog already?

Has any lassie actually died for real?

>>2705381
HOW THE FUCK WOULD ANYONE KNOW YOU RETARD

>>2705381

>>2705381
Yeah, you're mom.

WRITE THAT COMMENT IN LAVA'S BLOG REEEEE

>>2705457
he has to approve it before it gets seen, and he never approves comments, so we'll never know how many people posted comments on his blog

https://picarto.tv/aimai

>>2705470
I know, but at least he'll read it.

poor lava ;_;

maybe we're being too cruel

>that thumbnail
fucking hell banana that's frightening

>>2705525
he has really bad attitude honestly, very full of himself and opinionated while make pitiful progress in 15 month of doing nothing but drawing all day every day
15 month solid for 0 skill all ego

>>2705538
hes actually made fine progress.

>>2705601
I agree, that being said tho, he is a giant fucking autistic faggot.

>>2705534

It's not a good time, no.
I think I'm going to slow down a bit this session after work today.
Literally can't wait for the day when I can deliberately and competently draw something horrific.

Also this should now be in every thread.

"I'm so glad this fuckstick isn't running our community anymore. Nigga take your art elitism and shove it up your unfeeling cripple ass. You think what other people are doing is boring? Take a long hard look at your kindergarten-level scribbles and your chunky box anatomy. THAT is boring. You can't see benefits of 'photocopying' because you have a retarded aversion to using any sort of reference, which is why all your shit comes out looking like macaroni art. You don't get to fucking judge if a piece of art has 'meaning' or not. Art means a lot of different things to a lot of different people, and it's a shame you'd put down a whole group of people based on art that doesn't give YOU any specific feelings. But that doesn't matter because you act so fucking high and mighty all the time, nothing short of the Sistine fucking chapel would 'move' you or 'impress' you.
>I promise I'm not angry at them or what they do
You just think they're shit, they're work is shit, and everything they produce is meaningless. Top job, Lava.
>the artist doesn't try to express an idea or make me feel something
Nigga what the fuck do you know about feeling anything? You're the human equivalent of a half-empty toothpaste tube.

Literally, physically and mentally go fuck yourself Lava."

It's kind of weird. It's not just that one post people are flipping out over, but judging by the content of the rest of his blog, Lava just seems kind of bitter and resentful right now, even a little bit arrogant.

It's a bit disconcerting.

>>2706491
Lava is the same as he's always been. Newfags are just trying to start drama.

>>2706415
lets be real here, considering this is 4chan the community here actually did a good job containing themselves all this time (how many days/months has it been now?)
from get well images drawn by lassies to wishing him to come back, its a surprise that it is only now the community is fed up and fully exploding with rage.

how would you feel if someone you cared for ignored you and bitched about you like this?

he's always been very passive-aggressive like this, towards anyone that takes a different approach to him especially people that use any reference at all
always says he 'used a reference today but wont post it because it's cheating'
he was one of those beginners that thought he knew everything from the start and it stopped him ever improving or taking any advice
im sure having an inflated opinion of himself like this while still being bad at drawing has caused him a lot of inner turmoil, probably why he left the threads

I've got to say, I've harbored hatred towards Lava for a long time. It brings me immeasurable satisfaction to finally see him get smashed to pieces like this and called out for what a fucking piece of shit fucker he is. For every time I held back my opinion while you were giving out critiques and talking about how to be a great artist and how you knew the only right way with your autistic schedule : A giant fuck you!
I'm thankful for the site that you created and your idea, but as a human being you are the absolute worst.

he knew about the new site a long time ago and still didn't send even one message to us about what's going on
he lost interest in las 4 months ago when he left and is probably actually hoping that everyone will move on so he wont feel guilty about us anymore

Lava you could have avoided this if you only acknowledged our existance
This is 100% your fault for going radio silent
You can still apologize and redeem yourself

>>2706736

>instead anons had to read his blog for any news, and very very rarely hear once in a blue moon "blahblahblahblogblogblog btw I'm thinking about maybe working on LAS ;^) blahblablogblogblog"
I actually prefer this timeline where Lava goes completely silent on us and Doom.moe gets created as an alternative, at least now we have a place that's being developed and can truly make good use of the LAS format rather than Lava sitting and squandering it, while blueballing and stringing us along for several months with nothing.

>So I haven’t written about the LAS in a while so I should do that since a comment on my last post told me that people aren’t happy with my absence.

>I stepped back from the community I think 3 months ago because of the health issues I mentioned yesterday. I continued to support the site and its users through email and social media for the next month or so but I’ll admit that stopped after a while and it’s not just because I’m a piece of shit.

>A big priority was to make the site as self sustaining and as hands off as possible. It’s far from being perfect but thanks to the design decision as well as being a relatively simple site there were very few support requests. Compared to when the site launched where I was fixing a dozen issues a day it was down to maybe 1 or 2 per week.

>The reason I eventually stepped back from the email and social media support as well was because the support I was providing was… controversial. People would forget to submit or they would leave it until the last minute and miss the deadline by seconds. Not only was the community against me making fixes like this, I noticed that it was always the same 3 people who were forgetting/procrastinating and after fixing the issue for a user for the 4th time I said no more.

>I think that’s a pretty good summary of my first month away from the LAS community and I’m not at all making excuses. I don’t think I should have gone radio silent and abandoned support all together since I’m sure I’ve missed some legitimate issues. I also should have made a post saying that barring a site outage there would be no more reinstating the forgetful procrastinators. I wouldn’t call this a mistake because it was much worse than that. It wasn’t a single bad decision or a misunderstanding; it was me ignoring a project that had come to mean something to a bunch of people.

>At the time I felt no guilt or remorse because I was in a bad place at the time. It wasn’t until a month after, 2 months after stepping back from the project, that I was finally getting back to normal. The pain was subsiding and while I was waiting on the final test results so far I was in the clear. I think this was 7 weeks ago. At this point I wrote a couple times in this blog that I was probably good to return to the LAS but there was still some hesitation. I felt guilty for abandoning the email support and I think that guilt kept me away.

>2 weeks later I finished up the study plan I was on and I pretty much came out and said that there was no reason I shouldn’t be back to working on the LAS and that I was a piece of shit for avoiding it.

>This was a little more than a month ago. As stupid as it sounds but the shame and guilt of abandoning the project were keeping me from returning to it. I ended up working on the back-end to further minimize the amount of maintenance and upkeep the site needed as well as fixing a couple bugs. I think the only front-end change that came through was when I removed the Challenges announcement banner that had been up for months. At one point I had even removed the creation of new topic challenges being created so I could move forward with the site redesign. I chickened out and added them back in because if I removed them I’d have to explain what was going on.

>So that’s my side of it. I mentioned at the start of the post that someone from the LAS had commented on my previous post and they said they’re angry at me and I can understand why. I honestly didn’t think anyone read this blog but if they have then yeah I can see them being upset. I’ve been talking about being excited about other projects, working on them and planning for a future that doesn’t involve the LAS.

>>2707820
>That’s not at all how I see it but I haven’t been communicating my plans very well. My plan for the LAS, and this has been the plan since the earliest stages, is that I’m going to take it to a point where it’s “feature complete” and will require no further development from me. There’s an ongoing struggle with deciding whether the LAS should be a tool or a community and honestly that discussion is a post of its own. The current development plan is to complete the “tool” which leaves the option to expand on the community features and all the work that entails. I do have some “community” features along the same line as the community challenges but that topic deserves another post of its own.

>Anyway, the comment from yesterday also mentioned that a LAS alternative popped up and that’s cool. I don’t know what their plan is but my goal has always been to get people drawing every day and if they can do the that or do it better then I wish them the best.

>I guess now that I’ve broken the radio silence on the LAS I can’t avoid /ic/ any longer. I stopped hiding away with my traditional drawings, I started studying again and now I’m writing about the LAS. They’re going to shit all over me and I deserve it. I still need to swing back round to Forza so I guess tomorrow I swear

Lava if you are here - you don't need to come back as admin, come back as user. Everything is ok now. Good luck in life genuinely. I know you have been through bad things but you let LAS die and have a very obnoxious attitude about art. People go soft on you because you have medical problem.

Hello guys, I joined a few days ago. Cool concept and all. I'm not in the loop with whole LAS thing. As I understand LavaFlake is sick and site maintenance is sometimes poor due to this. So my question is: Is LAS LavaFlake's private project? Can others contribute fixes, features etc? If the man gets sick for a long time, there should be someone to manage the site, or at least maintain it.

>>2708333
lava stop being a retard, you aint fooling no one.

>>2708333

>>2708333
A second site was made because Lava refused help with the original site.

>>2708335
hi choob
>>2708341
hi susy

>>2708333
LAS is Lava's personal project, he doesnt let anyone else maintain it.

So another user named W created DED (Draw EveryDay) it is better maintained, open source and I think welcomes contributions
The link is doom.moe and I think all new users should go there instead. A lot of the old users from LAS started migrating there.
