Tell us the theme for the wild card if not reset the clock because I can’t work on a game if I don’t know the theme

I’m aware of that, but @TheGreenArtist hasn’t said anything and today’s the starting day.
This is one last call for @TheGreenArtist, if there’s no answer by 2023-05-11T22:00:00Z, then I will call up one of the reserves. Either way, UAT2 will have the theme announced today, but I want to make sure that everyone’s on board before I officially start the tourney.
If it’s too late for post approval by 2023-05-11T22:00:00Z, then check the [website](http://www.jaysgamezone8.wixsite.com/uat2) for the theme.

@Sonicblaston, you’ve been randomly selected from the **applicant reserves** to participate in UAT2. In case you don’t know why you’ve been picked, read the hidden details at the bottom of this reply.
Are you available to join, note that UAT2 **does** start today. If not, that’s alright.
If they accept, I will quickly reply the theme or have it on the header of the [website](http://www.jaysgamezone8.wixsite.com/uat2). You don’t have to begin until the theme is announced.

If a participant forfeits from the UAT, one of the reserved contestants will be **randomly selected** to take the forfeiter’s place. This is a **simple, feasible** solution to dropouts, which would before require mass restructuring of the bracket.

May I ask what these numbers mean?
My ideas:
Cmps = Competitions
Elm = Eliminations
Extn = Extensions
M = Magenta confrence
A = Azul confrence

No sorry for the misunderstanding, “Wild Card” is the name of the first round on the Unique-A-Thon.

Please excuse the timer on the website contestants.
