The project was started by a group of friends on Sunday, July 23rd at 04:10 GMT.

The idea of adding Sommie on the top space grew on the team after a bit of defense and recoloring, with the condition to not touch the frog build. Ilu-Icey created the pixel template that would be used for that purpose at 21:00 GMT, and Sommie was completed at 22:53 GMT as a collaboration between the original friend group and the Alcryst Nation Discord server. | The idea of adding Sommie on the top space grew on the team after a bit of defense and recoloring, with the condition to not touch the frog build.

Finally, on Tuesday, July 25th at 05:00 GMT, three Amongi were added to the right of Sommie. They are meant to represent, from top to bottom, Citrinne (Alcryst's cousin and one of his two retainers), Lapis (Alcryst's other retainer) and Diamant (Alcryst's older brother and the Crown Prince of Brodia). A small red-and-blue heart, meant to represent Alear, was added in the blank space to the bottom left of Sommie at 11:00 GMT. | Finally, on Tuesday, July 25th at 05:00 GMT, three Amongi were added to the right of Sommie.

Most of the time, however, flags were the target. Either they were extended as a way to cover other parts of the art, or some communities attempted to attack and cover them.

A tacit alliance was also formed with the people behind the frog artwork above Sommie, allowing a stronger line of defense between it and Dogecoin. This allowed Sommie to keep the tip of his ears even when the frog art got extended one pixel down, while there have been some minor conflicts about that part. This however could not save the frog from a bot attack shortly before the grayscale event. | A tacit alliance was also formed with the people behind the frog artwork above Sommie, allowing a stronger line of defense between it and Dogecoin.
