-There is nothing substantially different from aikaterna’s original cog so this will not be counted towards the 3 cog minimum.

We have had some lengthy discussions internally about your cog creator application and after discussion because of the way you forked other people’s cogs - not properly attributing the original cog creator in the info.json file and only making minor stylistic changes - they will not count towards the 3 cog minimum. Your other cogs in your repo are listed as hidden and appear to be incomplete/non functioning so they do not count either. While you’re fine to host your own fork of someone elses cogs we do not want them to be part of a cog creator application, they’re largely someone elses work and not yours. We would also like to see such examples if they’re in your repo be hidden unless they bring significant changes to the way the cog works or brings something useful to the community that the original cog does not. Generally we’d recommend you just make a PR to the original author for things you want changed though.

As a result of all this I will be rejecting your application until you have more cogs ready, appropriately credit the original authors of the cogs you forked and make them hidden until such time they bring something substantial that the original cog did not do, and no sooner than 1 month from today.
