Okay, hear me out: What if we had a /vp/ character tournament? And instead of Mr. and Ms, there could be one for Pokemon and one for the human characters? And instead of eight, Pokemon have an Elite Six and humans have an Elite Four?

The real question is, would the jannies allow it? I mean I'm down for this idea and it caught my attention but we have seen exactly what happened with /aco/ recently. What would be the point at doing it in /trash/?

So I'd like to have a thread focused specifically for the foundational questions about the tournaments.
The biggest question I want to bring up is:
>What does the tournament actually represent? Is it a popularity contest? Is it about OC? character love? a war of wills and tactics? just plain fun? If multiple things to what extent is each?
Also by extension:
>What does it actually mean to be a board tournament winner? What makes a character "worthy" to be a winner? popularity? OC? campaign? actual quality of character?
>Should we limit more popular characters/series's/franchises? to what extent?

I have the same question but for a different reason. Usually my picks do really well in these side tournaments, and I don't really get why. Are they more popular than I initially thought, is it just the campaigns people like, or is it a mix of both?

Due to deletions on the main site Ms. /aco/ nominations (and possibly the whole tourney) will continue here. Previous nominations will carry over and the reply requirement is now 7.

Since this is technically not an adult board please NSFW any NSFW pics.

With Doomfags (aka Doomers or Doomposters) fully taking over and derailing Ms /co/ 2023, we need to discuss these spammers who are damaging tournaments and how to limit their damage.

>Who are they
Essentially, Doomers try to derail all discussion of tournaments with meta "sky is falling" mentality. They are not sincere in their intention or what they say, but want to cause as much chaos as possible for "fun" and/or try to get interest in tournaments to decline rapidly. They will make a talking point whatever side they think will cause more controversy while not beliving what they say.

Common signs of doomers include:

I don't think a lot of things would have changed. If anything it's a blessing in disguise Mr. /co/ wasn't the test subject for NSA's retarded last minute decisions.

I doubt that kind of change would do much to shift to dynamic between the tournaments. If NSA applied email verification because Ms. /co/ qualifiers had cheating, it would have still happened if the event were to take place in October instead of September. Mr. /co/ ending with the double elimination drama sounds fucking hilarious though.

Unless that means he's now an illegitimate host that we ignore the threads of, that's not a gotcha at all.
>he's the one making all these fuck ups, not the campaigners or their picks
Unfortunately that's usually the case with rigged picks too. One guy ruins it for everyone.

Welcome all to the Murder Games! The purpose of this tournament is to give any of your nominee a second chance to get a win. For each character added to this tournament, the game randomly gives them perks and items that will come in handy, although other times can backfire horribly. The game is simple, everything is a simulation where all the characters fight each other to death. The rules are simple:
>The winner is excluded, only 127 characters will participate
>The transition between posting rounds will be around 7-8 minutes so anons present can discuss anything about the previous slide
>Peace slides are posted faster
>The Elite can participate
>The last character standing alive is the winner

Yeah, I can't do all of them but right now I have to do villains quickly as of tomorrow night or the day /aco/ nominations start. I need to take a break from these. Thanks for playing and sticking around, I will see you all again for Mr. /co/ where as your host the only rule is the one who rigs the most wins.
