do edits retrigger the bot or does it have to be a net new top-level comment (I see you posted one so I won't retrigger it again but for future reference)?

Edits doesn't trigger the bot again (the same way it won't ping a mentioned user on lemmy if you edit a comment they are mentioned in). The bot check for replies/mentions every 60 seconds, so you have on average 30 seconds to edit your comment (not taking into account federation complexity) before the bot parses the message and marks the comment as read.

I honestly don't know. However it appears that the bot isn't working.

Bot is online. ESPN has implemented cloudflare/captcha protection to block bot activity, the current workaround is of degraded performance and slightly more fragile than directly querying data from ESPN. Bot update still work-in-progress, it should work fine for the most part. Check the Norway - Iraq post for current format.
