Just wanted to share this to everyone

From Pretendo's Discord server:

Hey all,

At this time, we have temporarily shut down our account servers while we perform emergency maintenance. We do not have any more details at the moment, and we are doing this purely as a safety precaution.

We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience; we are working to get our services online again as soon as possible.

P.S I want to post this for people wondering why they can't go online and so people won't keep wondering why they can't enter friend codes.

Edit: I realized I should have put the word "Temporary" in the title as I unintentionally scared some people into thinking that Pretendo got shut down. 😅

Edit 2: I also should have made it clear that I don't work with Pretendo Network I just wanted to spread the word out to people who don't have discord.

Just a bit of a quick question how do you all feel about the news of Pokemon Bank? Upset? Sad? Both? Do you think that Nintendo and Gamefreak could have come up with something else other than just closing Bank making it impossible to complete pokedexes for older games or etc?

Edit: IMO I don't think Bank should close as it discourages you to play older games also the fact that they also didn't announce an alternative method to bridge connections to old games is surprising to me as Pokemon has always been about connectivity and closing Bank just ruins that.

I wanted to share this here to get the word out and will share this to other communities as well.

P.S Saw and heard about this petition and wanted to share it with other people who still care about it.

fan-made ROM hack (modified version of Sonic Advance 1 on the game boy advance) developed by Rhythm Raccoon.

This mod removes the original game's cheap bottomless pits, unfair enemy placements, and forced booster pads, replacing them with custom grind rails, better physics, and way more Special Springs.

Warning: The patch only works on the US (North America) version of the original Sonic Advance ROM; using a European or Japanese version will corrupt the file. (Sorry for people in other regions.)

You can find the official patch download link pinned in the original project thread on the [Sonic Retro Forums]

PS: I tried to make my own QR code to post here but didn't know how to get the screen brightness right on the game so hopefully someone else has better luck.
