>Black Canary
I like her and she's hot but maybe just the biggest case of tourney luck and 1st year low turnout advantage ever.
>Sara Bellum
Weird top 4 material. Simply not enough of a character. I can see her winning like a minor/background character tournament though.
>Nicole Watterson
More understandable than Sara but competes with her for least talked about top 4.
>Hugh Neutron
Cool oddball pick. Funny guy.
>Iroh
Good character. Universally agreeable but just never gets support.
>Fio Germi
Alright. Don't know why despite her crazy performance history she's got no support.
>Aigis
Got some support but legit forgot she was an E8 since 2020.
>Ranni
Kind of fotm. Doubtful she will do nearly as good.

Hey everyone. So I have a big announcement to make.
I am officially not going to be hosting the main tournaments this year. Yes, that means both /aco/ and /his/ tournaments. My house has been ransacked by possums and now the foundation has crumbled into itself.
If any of you have any questions, feel free to ask.

The weight of campaigning and thread interactivity has always been there. It's just that as the years have gone by, the size of the tournaments has exponentially grown, making this more noticeable and leading the dynamics within it to evolve to the point of becoming documented and throughly analyzed.
No.146667

>>146665
I don't deny it's always been at least a minor element but weight of its clearly changed. The 2nd year for both boards had nearly the largest turnout yet you didn't have all the meta dynamics and analysis. Meta has definitely grown way more as tourney history grows and with the continual recurrence of voters and characters. That's natural.
2021 in general was undeniably a major shoot up in tourney meta. It's undeniable that Recette is way more of an interdependent thread-heavy win than anyone previous (except I guess Betty lol).

Ms. /co/ in general has a problem of a decent winner with just a shit circumstance of winning.
Betty is a great winner in a vacuum. Probably the best legacy pick we could've gotten. The original waifu and female icon and shit. In a universe where the voter autism for Mr. and Ms. were switched I can see her winning in a Tom or Daffy fashion just being the agreeable vintage rep.

I'm fine with anyone from Huffsluff getting into the bracket. His shortstacks are amazing. Question is which three of Huffluff's OCs are able to get in? I mean we clearly still have to follow three per series formula.

So regarding ms. /aco/ this year: I currently DO NOT plan to run it. The mod/janny problems last year discouraged me and I'd rather not risk a mod clash about all tourneys + getting myself banned from the main site over this one. Apologies to anyone looking forward to that. May replace it with a ms. /trash/ of sorts if enough people seem to want that. Alternatively another anon could give a stab at trying the /aco/ tourney, but I advise you be very cautious if you do.
>>146594
>>146679
The line-up right now is me, samaritanon and cumanon for all four main tourneys. More hosts may help but it's pending.
And I think technically there is no or has ever been meant to be a "main host" in main tourneys. Even NSA themselves insisted on this (but y'know). Just hosts that may be more knowledgeable on certain boards so can make certain calls. Cumanon is basically the one knowledgeable about /v/ so is needed for it the way balls was last year. Tourneys have been in need of knowledgeable but also experienced /v/ anon's to run it, and we're still looking for more for the future.

The guy was just disrespecting me too many times. I gave him lots of chances but he crossed the line when he told to "Have fun getting raped up the ass by a nigger lol"
I blocked him after that as it proved to me that he had some mental illness.
The other guy kicked me out of our art group and is ignoring me now because i blocked the guy.
In hindsight our group really wad like some kind of cult and apparently i wasn't even the first one who had enough and left. While i didn't leave, i just blocked a guy and he kicked he out.

for me it was a girl I hanged out with a lot irl, she was grooming this 17 year old in cali over vrchat to become a vtuber couple, when I found out suddenly I was abusive and would stalk her irl (she only leaves the house to walk her dogs) and thus I was thrown out of our group and because they had mod perms in other chats and even twitch chats, I just started getting banned on a wider scale
but yeah that group you was in sounded awful, I hope to maybe make a group at some point if you'd want in?

There is still more support for ditching it than not, but this specific one is notably the iffiest on /co/

(which is funny since /tnt/ was originally strongly for it, but has since swung back to split as it's shown it's issues. Namely no SilentMajority makes spitevoting or smear campaigning more effective making more reactionary polls, and lower numbers means easier to rig which is a massive concern after NSA and Numnuts)

No good host alternatives to stop NSA, and the general fearmongering of rogue hosts launching coups(thanks Temp for making that worse) and the threat of jannies calling in 24 hour limits to prevent longer votes or double checking (which was also BS given what happened last year with NSA being late).

Ms /co/ would be just as big of a mess, even down to a Steven universe pick in 2019. Eve would definitely be less controversial than Wuya for 2023, that's the only good thing about it.
Mr /co/ has such a high quality roster their 8th places are just as fitting as their winners, I wouldn't see anybody questioning any of those as winners
Queen /v/ is weird but workable. Not as good as queen's excellent win roster, but Shantae, Morrigan and Taokaka are pretty respectable characters.
I gotta be honest, I think I outright prefer the King /v/ 8th places to almost all of the actual winners. Armstrong and Dante are still great, but Wario and Scout is serious competition. Even the weak link Nyarly is still enjoyable.

>Ms. /co/
This really does show how Jenny left such a great foundation despite the chaos around Ms. /co/ after its inaugural year. Black Canary has her appeals, but she just doesn't have much oomph as a winner. On the whole, this line-up clearly benefits more niche picks. Not a bad hand, but I could see the stigma around here being rough. I would imagine that Peridot would still be the low point and Jucika might get off as a slightly better Recette (much as that comparison is overblown). Eve would be a wild departure that late in, especially over other mainstream picks. Still might be seen as a lesser evil of sorts for beating Wuya considering what would presumably still come out a few months later. Pauling might be seen as a lesser Grievous case, and ENA would likely be seen as a solid indie animation winner. Both would likely be seen as a nice change of pace, and it's also right to say they are the two here I could actually see having any chance at this point.

>Mr. /co/
Still a solid line-up overall, even if it's not as good as what we actually got. Johnny Bravo or Jack not taking it in 2018 would be a shock, but Kuzco is still a good winner despite being an arguably weaker pick than Kronk. Surprisingly, I actually think Mr. Incredible would be fine in hindsight despite what I assume would be a quieter campaign here. No, the real backlash would absolutely be towards Disney winning three times in a row. It would subside by this point in time, but I could imagine it being awful earlier on. The lack of many WB winners would also be a real sore spot, and something that's hard to envision why it kept up so hard. With that all said, I could see Iroh being seen as an okay winner and Xavier being quite well-received. I'm sure his great campaign would still be appreciated, but I would expect Farquaad to be the most contentious winner to date. An actually explicit villain winning would be nice and Dreamworks getting a winner would also be nice, yet even now Farquaad feels more like a fluke all considered. I imagine Jack would have to inherently be weaker in this timeline, but I imagine Farquaad would cut it incredibly close to Skeletor. I wouldn't exactly mind it myself, but it would make for a lot of curious discussion.

The clear theme here even more than the actual winners would be that basically every property to win would be extremely well-liked and in some regards push against norms of their respective genres. It's a different conclusion here, yet one that's still actually really good. Just shows how hard it would be to fuck up Mr. /co/.

>Queen of /v/
Well the funniest point I see right off the bat is that this would absolutely take on a similar stigma to what we see now in King of /v/, even if possibly not quite as bad. There's a surprising among to unpack here. For one, I imagine Roll would immediately make lolis a topic of debate just considering her current reception alone. She'd certainly not be as strong a starting winner as Samus, though it's hard to call her a bad start at the same time. After all, she's made Elite Eight three times now. If anything, it would give a better reason why Mega Man would struggle so hard in King. Aigis seems like she'd be more contentious as a second winner by nature than some other contemporaries in that E8, but I imagine she'd age fine all considered. Robot girls would be forever stigmatized though, which does explain how Curly wouldn't win in this timeline. Shantae would make Recette's campaign seem more of a fluke, although I imagine she'd have a bumpier reception. I imagine people would still think Mado should have won, although maybe not quite as often. Morrigan would clearly lead to a very clear shot at fighting game winners, which does lead into Taokaka winning right afterwards. Imagine two in a row would be contentious, although I think both would be seen as okay. Do think anons would be seriously questioning the board's taste here though.

This isn't a bad line-up, but I'd never trade it for what we actually got. Only super exciting winner here for me would be Aigis. Others range from alright to fairly good, which is far less thrilling than the actual line-up.

>King of /v/
Wario and Scout would very likely be seen as great winners. Both have gone on to return to the Elite Eight and rank higher in it, after all. Armstrong feels right, yet I could also see how he'd settle as a lower pick against opponents with more longevity overall. On the other hand, Fuhrer would be one of the most contentious winners period. I imagine it would settle down as people accept it, but it would still be a win often debated to this day. Do think the conspiracy posts would be what really saves him, giving them actual depth that might be considered a key component in winning. I'm more curious than anything how Luigi would have beaten Garland without major changes in how his run went down, although I do think taking down Christopher Robin would be a great start. Do think we'd see some development of an arc for Luigi despite Nyarly destroying both the schizos and merchants the year prior. It's easy to see how he'd beat Jack Frost because people would accept a second Mario winner over a third from SMT, though I'm not sure how Frost would actually make it that far in this scenario. Much as I respect his campaigners focusing mostly on his actual games, I do think Rayman would have absolutely needed the Laserhawk memes to win last year. I'm mostly curious how Eggman would lose here, since he'd be the big roadblock in a case where the replacement for Scout managed to beat Grimm. Okay, if it was Dante, I got more questions. I imagine Rayman might be seen as a lightweight winner and start to tear people away from platformer mascots, yet he'd likely get somewhat of a pass off his legacy. Funnily enough, this would be the tournament where I imagine we'd be the closest to where we are now.

As for how I'd see each? I'd strongly appreciate Wario and Scout. Luigi would be a good winner, though not as great as Wario. Rayman would also be solid, and he'd be remembered as a pleasant and fun pick all considered. Would be a good chance I'd prefer others in his E8 line-up to have won though. Nyarly would feel like a weird winner, but I'd certainly be fine with it in the end. Would have appreciated him a lot more because of his turn around Round 4 that year, which would carry him to win in this case. Not the best outcome, but hardly the worst.

The biggest lesson here is that Ms. /co/ is fucked, though I would say Queen had the biggest downgrade overall here.

It's been overlooked in the question proposed here, but I'd imagine each eighth place here would go as follows. Going to imagine all with directly swapped places because that's interesting.

>Jenny
I could buy how she ended up eighth, since Black Canary beating all seven of her fellow elites here would be easily the biggest shock. No return would be somewhat surprising though, and I'd imagine Jenny could only end up as another "silentfag pick" like we see in our actual timeline.
>Spinel
Nobody would complain about her being eighth. Peridot wouldn't have as much FOTM, but would still take up a lot of the stigma that Spinel got instead. The bigger shock would be Peridot beating Frankie and Raven, which is also basically what happened in the actual tournament.
>Mrs. Monarch
She's a good character, but I'd imagine people would be fine with her ending up here. She gets an Elite Eight spot to tie into Venture Bros being cancelled, but doesn't have the long impact that a win would mark. On a side note, if every other pick stays as similar as possible here then EVE going from a previous 3rd-4th to winning would make more sense.
>Betty Boop
She'd likely be seen falling in her spot as a very old legacy pick. Another one where I don't think there would be much debate about it.
>Fang
I can buy her losing to Brisby in this alternate timeline. I can't buy Fang ending up lower than 5th or 6th. Maybe massive spite, though even that seems unlikely. I would agree Fang should have been higher at least on the ranking, but wouldn't weigh as bad on me with the winner being a better one overall for this tournament.
>Wuya
The bigger question would be how both Totally Spies girls got voted over her. Wuya would feel like she'd fit well firmly into 6th, though could ironically see her being seen as another campaign favorite that ends up settling into eighth when the actual rankings come out. People wouldn't mind it after the NSA bullshit.

Actually not much to debate here other than Fang in 2022. I can see how these work out oddly enough.

>Johnny Bravo
I'd be shocked to see him that low considering he's such a fun character, and would likely be among the people pushing to have Johnny get a comeback in later years.
>Kronk
Love the guy, but in a case right after Kuzco this would make sense.
>Tom Cat
Having such a famous character in eighth would feel a little weird, but I'd just presume people didn't see him as that exciting. He'd be against Hugh Neutron and Eustace Baggs if WALL-E remained 5th, so I can at least see it.
>Grievous
Considering he'd be coming off Pauling winning the previous month, the debate over multimedia picks would absolutely be a factor here. Hank would likely take 5th or 6th after Iroh beats him, and JJJ was previously 4th place in the inaugural tournament.
>Zorak
I can see how he'd swap general momentum with Xavier in this scenario. The 5th-8th rankings this year seemed to go opposite to campaign attention, so I could sadly see how this one would happen.
>Skeletor
I'd mostly want to know how Dale didn't end up eighth place instead, however both Hank and SpongeBob ranked. The general consensus would likely be anons glad Skeletor got back in Elite Eight, but disappointed he felt like he was waning in attention.

Johnny Bravo being eighth just seems hard to imagine. Aside from that, I could get these rankings despite Skeletor's own pushing it.

>Samus
I'd be really shocked how she ended up behind Peach, Shantae, and Maya in her first run. If she takes the place directly of Roll, I'd at least be happy she got better regards in her following two runs. Biggest question is how she'd end up behind Marisa in 2021 coming right off Metroid Dread. Maybe an extra heavy focus on indie love that year?
>Reimu
I'd be sad to see her end up so low and surprised to see Cirno actually end up ahead. I'd also be disappointed she couldn't pull back up in 2022 or 2023.
>Recette
Against Alice, Curly, and Fio? Yeah, I wouldn't be too surprised and wouldn't complain either. I'm mostly okay with Recette winning, but in this scenario I can absolutely see the general ranking vote patterns hitting Recette despite momentum on the bracket itself.
>Midna
This would just be weird. Midna seems like a shoo-in for fifth if Morrigan was a stronger candidate in this scenario, so having her at the bottom would seem odd without some serious sight.
>Curly
I'd be incredibly disappointed to see her this low, though in practice I could see how both Bayonetta and Fio might rank higher with the cards falling different. I'd be surprised how Malon beat her, considering how this scenario would likely change the environment under which Malon was able to pull off 5th place easier.

Shaking my head at everyone but Recette's placements, which is bad. Compared to the /co/ results, it's hard to imagine how these play out. Still, Samus at least gets a redemption in this scenario and Curly has two Elite Eight runs, so it's not as bad as it could be if we do imagine the same Elite Eights minus Roll, Wario, and Scout in later years. Touhou likely falling off with less hopes to later win would suck.

>Senator Armstrong
This year's line-up was stacked, so I can oddly buy this. Armstrong vs. Eggman in 2021 would likely be kino if he also just swaps his ranking history with Wario here, and Armstrong would deserve that 5th place coming off the Eggman battle.
>Dante
How the fuck would this one even happen? All four characters in 5th-8th for the actual tournament are all great, but Dante going below all of them? He'd have lost to Scout, which would make it even weirder. One of the most baffling eighth place outcomes period. At least Dante would be open for some great matches in 2023.
>Batter
It's hard to imagine him going this low after such an insane campaign prior, but I could at least buy it with his three opponents all being heavy hitters. Armstrong would be reasonable beating him for 5th, and I could see how Leon might be hyped up as the first Resident Evil elite. Heavy would be very likely to be eighth in a scenario where Fuhrer didn't end up here, but guess the silent majority would win out here.
>Garland
Similar to the above, I could believe it considering the other three have strong legacies. Realistically, I think he'd be 6th.
>Grimm
Now Grimm would likely be 5th if anything, with the 5th-8th voting patterns being the main reason he'd be the opposite here. Really, I think it would go Grimm, Demi-fiend, Snake, and Kiryu in this situation.

I don't believe most of the positions here, though the only egregious case would be Dante. Still not as baffling as Queen's results.

You have to wonder at what point does a character or series become notable enough for its fanbase to stop being a mere "cult" or “circlejerk". I'm not a fan of the character, but it's been years since she had a resurgence in popularity and the larger userbase of /co/ and 4chan in general is familiar with what Jucika is by now.

Jucika argument got me thinking. What do you think the actual purpose of the first FOTM rule was? I don't mean "Spinel." I mean do you think it was about a concern over a kind of purity of character results, or about keeping things more fun and less predictable? Or was just seething in the moment and to soft asterisk Spinel? Answer can probably determine your overall tourney attitude.

But it's a pretty useless rule all things considered. It didn't stop Monarch from pity winning, didn't stop Fang from having a FOTM boost while her show was airing, didn't stop Muriel, Harley and Dale all getting into E8 on pity from their VAs dying, didn't stop Lois from getting a boost last year because of MAWS. It was short-sightedly tailored exclusively to the circumstances that perfectly aligned with Spinel's, which hasn't really occured since.

The rule was directly made because Spinel debuted less then two weeks before the tournament and was a legitimate FOTM. It's partly seethe but a lot of purity of results to try and prevent the same scenario, because if she debuted 2 weeks later she would have been ineligible and would have never won anything (likely qualifying for a few years before dropping out), where if she debuted a few months prior that hype would have died out and she wouldn't have won 2019.

It was also put in at a time when there was still basically a formal assumption Spinel was legitimately the winner. In truth the FOTM status isn't what gave her the win though it could've landed her in a natural E8. At most you could argue the FOTM status encouraged particularly rabid behavior from an outside group to rig her a win.
Which also makes me think, we still bring up and meme about those peruvian fuckers years after the fact. I wonder if any of those facebook normies ever gave another thought to the affair or how many even a moment crossed that it was a bad form thing to do at the time.

Spinel is enshrined anyway, you look at the winners and she'll always be there no matter what. At best this admits her appeal was one of the biggest FOTMs of all time

This. You can be a careful rigger all you want, but if there's nothing else going on and nothing to explain it anons will anger and push until something gives. And it's a cycle(Anons ask questions and get angry, character keeps winning, backlash and suspicion rises)

Spinel had organic masking in the form of the FOTM thing.

And with hindsight, NSA's rule changes were all for masking(except the Swimsuit round thing that was just laziness).

Stick with me and we'll win every tourney!
Yay, (alright) alright, go mr /co/
Go Mr /co/!

It's great that we'll soon be accepting
A winner who's based and adored
Of course I'll get votes as expected
And soon I'll take over the board
This thread is littered with their eyes
That all focus on this tourney
The point that I must emphasize is
You better get me past Round 3!!

So prepare for the tourney of the century
Be prepared for the murkiest scam
Meticulous planning
Tenacity spanning
Decades of spamming

People were suspicious from the get-go. The whole deal was that furries were being voted together at specific time intervals. I remember the vote timing being shared, and some did at least buy it. Still, there wasn't any proof of who would have rigged for furries, and to add onto that there's a high chance that there was some level of honest overlap with them in terms of voting because of similar appeal. There were other odd parts too. For example, Karen from SpongeBob was allegedly affected? NSA herself even came out and said Nicole was actually innocent all along the following year after the incident. She claims that Brisby had also been rigged to win against Alice in the first round, hence her not forgiving her. Now that was a close match against a pretty decent contender, but Brisby also had an active campaign from the get-go. I don't recall if we even got exact numbers, but even if that was the case it brings a question of what happened in later rounds. Brisby would have apparently won round 3 that year even without the alleged rigging, which makes it even wilder.

Shirley is a whole other matter. The general consensus is that she was indeed rigged, but there's several questions there. For one, she did have an active campaign going. That hardly counts out potential rigging, but it did mean some quite a few people were certainly legitimately voting for her. NSA didn't interject to keep Shirley out of finals, which while alleged to be due to fear of overreaching did lead to a whole shitstorm that could have potentially been avoided. Lastly, far as I know NSA was only acting like Shirley had continuous rigging throughout the tournaments. Why was it just round 3 then for nearly all the others?

Oh yeah, one more tidbit. It was discovered that Fang's victory screens were almost certainly done by NSA herself, which meant that she was forcing the asterisks in them for Shirley, Nicole, and Brisby. People did later edit them to remove that, but it stuck on them until the OFA shit came out. One less person to agree on the extent of her allegations, and also showed she was willing to push the accusations further through more discreet means. People upset at a host seriously using asterisks in results? Why just take off your trip and act like a humble artist following what the hosts declared!

I remember Shirley rose attention from campaigners and drawfags as soon as she beat Eda first round. Following that people drew for her during her match against Jessica. I feel bad for Shirley if this was just a case of an underdog gaining a positive reception but ultimately getting tied to NSA's bullshittery, especially with the aforementioned forced asterisks. However, the thing is, Shirley is still an oddball in all of this. I know other Courage characters have made it to the tournament. Hell, FOUR of them are elite 8 members, but her role in the show isn't that relevant. I mean she has had her memorable moments whenever she stars in an episode, but besides that, she never had the same level of popularity of the likes of Katz or Freaky Fred. However, there are also other girls who have had a few episodes on their shows too.

The fur rigging accusation was so easy to buy cause the characters in question that made it far were odd and completely unexpected. Shirley is a minor side character that hadn’t ever even qualified prior. Nicole had always been silent and ignored, even when she reached semi’s. Brisby was also someone no one expected but the degree of support and her prominence as a character made her the only one maybe believable to most.

Yeah, this is the bulk of why Shirley was really jarring. To this day, she's made it further than the main three from that show. Shirley is one of my favorite side characters from the show, but it would have just felt dirty if she somehow won before the other two. Now I'd rather it be Eustace or Courage over Muriel, but at least Muriel has a ton of material behind her. Shirley is good, but not THAT good.

>>147229
I half agree on this. I do think that a lot of the affected girls had genuine reasons to support them. Tigress is a very liked character from her movies, Karen has a number of fun moments in her show and got off some of the best in later seasons, Brisby is the protagonist of one of Don Bluth's more prominent projects, Nicole is one of the best characters in her show, etc. Even Shirley is from one of the most universally loved cartoons of its era, much as she was a weird pick on her own. All of them doing good together was indeed weird, but the only real fluke getting that far on her own was Shirley.

If there's anything to note, Gadget was also apparently part of the rigging despite losing by a good margin to Fang. This would actually explain both why Fang wasn't part of the rigged votes and why the spikes didn't continue after that round. It's the most reasonable explanation I've seen for the rigging being legitimate, though I do have to still wonder why it wasn't around for everyone the previous two rounds. Maybe it was harder to notice, or just got escalated because of Fang. Of course, we never got a confirmed answer to the potential rigging. My personal belief is that either it was a Gadgetfag, it was NSA overblowing a potential issue, or it was some mix of the two.

Johanna's just a normal level-headed mom character in the show. For this reason many tourneyheads think she's boring and doesn't deserve to win. I guess many /co/ people used to wacky cartoon characters don't really understand the appeal of mundane slice-of-life things. Though she does get more love on /co/ proper (during the actual Ms. /co/ you can sometimes find her fans in the threads, and she has lots of art on the booru). But those fans aren't tourneyheads so during the off-season the only ones discussing tourneys are the ones who happen to have different preferences.

You have to understand ms. 2021 was a fuckfest of contrarianism and psyop meta faggotry. Or at least that’s the way it looked. All the “powerhouses” got booted for oddball and unexpected choices and the E8 basically consisted of under-the-radar and inoffensive picks. This lineup felt weird and disappointing to a lot of people (this wasn’t just a tourneyfag thing, the general morale was low about the tourney). Johanna kind of exemplified the situation. A completely grounded and average, thus far inconspicuous and unexpected pick that had a devoted small push that came across as wholesome and likable. Kind of like a /co/ Recette. The finale ended up being her and Betty and it basically turned into a battle over what was fitting as a winner and “saving” the tourney.

I just think she would have been more underwhelming than anything. I completely see the appeals behind the idea of her as a winner, with good source material and actual support both certainly helping her. I'm just not really enthusiastic about the prospect, and certainly not as much as quite a few other girls who could have or could still win instead. Still hardly the worst winner we could have gotten, and definitely not the weakest elite choice we've had throughout Ms. /co/.

Do think my statement was a little misread as well. I was more pointing out that there had already been a surprising sleeper finalist pick with active campaigning the year prior to draw comparisons. It's not a perfect comparison obviously, and there's the whole point that Johanna wasn't rigged. Just what I meant by bringing up Johanna here in particular.

>Would really have been Spinel 2?
Not sure how the tournament reception would have gone had she won, but this would never be a fair comparison considering all the shit around Spinel. Believe that Johanna would have gotten off better too in terms of reception, if just for being from much less controversial source material.

>>147245
Okay, I don't think simply getting threads equates to someone being a solid pick to win a tournament. It certainly does help at least, no questions on that. Still, if a character or game gets threads every few days yet gets wide praise across the board, that's going to stick out plenty as having good presence on the board. There's also the whole other matter that recurring threads don't always reflect how the board as a whole might feel about a particular character. I at least would agree Hex has been a hit since her debut, even if a lot of that is coom appeal. I'm more skeptical on someone like Leyley. She's definitely got an active fanbase on the boards, but not sure just how much that actually carries over to the board as a whole. /v/ is a very active board in particular, and I'd never expect any one anon to keep up with every single thread going on at a time.

I think Betty is a better winner. I wouldn't say it like the one anon did, but Recette was way too meta heavy and sticks out too much with her obscurity on the lineup of winners. Betty Boop does have the opposite problem. While she is iconic and fits, her win was not under the best circumstances. I'm kind of making a meta argument too, but for different reasons. Recette's underwhelming to me while Betty can be seen as underwhelming, but more understandable.

Have you guys ever thought that the people that do the most whining about the silent majority during the main touneys are NOT the /tnt/ tourneyheads? Instead it's just regular anons who don't think about tournaments too often and aren't used to what usually happens. So when they decide to main a relatively unpopular pick and it loses to a silent popular character, they start posting about how much they hate the silent majority and how much of an issue it is. It happens every year and it will happen this year again. Every year someone discovers the silent majority for the first time.
Ths is also why seeded brackets will probably never come back.

Also the Emperor of /his/ guy was organized and had a clear and concise idea of how he wanted the tournament to go and how it would be organized. It was spontaneous but it still worked
The lack of that is why the one guy who tried a /tv/ tournament failed and why the guy trying the impromptu /a/ tournament will also fail, there's not really any planning or organization beyond than "i want a tournament". But the fact that the thread still hasn't been deleted is a good sign, because if it stays that way it means there's a chance a proper /a/ tournament could happen one day without the jannies screwing it up

If he's both a furbro and a weeb maybe he can answer why Beerus has such a disproportionally high amount of foot-fetish art. Not even by one or two artists, it's a weirdly consistent thing.

I think it's a matter of reading meta, which I think I've gotten fairly good at. Like Grimm was not a speculated favorite but knowing his /v/core status and seeing him cruise and build momentum and gain a "darkhorse" energy by R4 got me predicting a Grimm/Eggman finale.

This is a cop-out answer, but it depends entirely on the tournament. Round 4 would likely be the average, but Round 3 or semi-finals can fit better depending on how momentum is going. Then there's the occasional nailbiter where it is actually hard to call, although I'd say these aren't the majority.

It depends on the tourney. Mr. /co/ is the hardest one overall even during the final match, probably because most characters which make it far carry very balanced levels of hype and appeal. I think Ms. /co/ is easier to predict than people give credit for - I was certain Eris vs Wuya would be the finale by R4 and pretty much the only one who thought the former was going to win instead of Eris. Most female /co/ winners were actually easy calls except for Betty, but 2021 was a wack year in general.
Queen of /v/ goes right after Mr. /co in how hard it can be to predict. Its male counterpart on the other hand might be the easiest one out of the four main tourneys

Considering how many of the most famous movies ever originated from books (Lord of the Rings, Dracula, Gone With Wind), just allow every character who has ever appeared on film. This would also guarantee some /tv/ staples (Drive, American Psycho).

of course adaptations should be in but it should be made clear that you're supporting the adaptation's character, so for example in the /tv/ tournament if you nominate and support Stannis from GoT, you're supporting the character that D&D butchered, not the based GRRM ASOIAF version

They did have tournaments before. From what I can remember it was a mess, at least from this one post that I read I don't really use that board myself. Amelia Watson was the winner in the first tournament but some autist didn't think that tournament was fair or something so he made another one himself and the grand winner of that tournament is... Amelia Watson. Still not as bad as Queen of /a/ though.

Too much awkwardness involved in retroactively removing winners. By the time it happens everything has run its course and people accept it. And also what happens to the line-up of those years then?

After a character won, their victory is set in stone. Most people are too passive and burnt-out to bother trying to revoke it. After the winner has been declared, the highest point of tension has passed and the afterparty is just tension relief. Most people don't want a rollercoaster like the 2017 Oscars. This is also why the crown steal idea was retarded.

I can only see two scenarios where thread majority would be down to dethrone the winner.

And it's worth noting this is an in-the-moment thing, especially as line-ups can still all be changed with no effect on the future yet. Spinel was an example of this but a year later and especially now revoking it is feels werid and brings up too many technical troubles.

/tv/ should be a cakewalk with even a moderately competent host, the jannies there are very low key. even moreso then /v/. Between that and generals being allowed there it should be a cakewalk, we wouldn't even have to worry about policing off-season or side tournaments or anything.

Only problem I can foresee is whether or not animated properties should be allowed. Simpsons and Family Guy and Looney Tunes get discussed there just as much as on /co/ if not more, none of it's technically against the rules there.
It's not like characters being able to qualify for multiple tournaments is unheard of even excluding grandfather clause cases.
>There are characters associated with /mlp/ allowed in those tournaments, other Hasbro properties with fandom links like Littlest Pet Shop or Dan Vs, plus other notable pony properties like The Last Unicorn, they can run in Mr. and Ms. /co/
>Characters with both major anime and major /co/ properties might be able to run in both like the RWBY cast or the Powerpuff Girls, we'll see.
>All the tournaments tend to be pretty lax about literature adaptions, /co/ with Alice or The Iron Giant and /v/ with The Witcher cast.

Saimoe was on 2chan, so you can ignore that, and the second SaiGar ended just as the Elite Eight was starting (and only 6 of the 8 were actually figured out. The wiki doesn't even mention the other 4 guys who had competed for the two remaining spots). /a/tard\s run last month was a complete disaster and rigged to hell and didn't finish on /a/ so we can ignore that too.

Guts won SaiGar 2007, that one was fully on 4chan, and seemingly was way cleaner than the failed 2008 one(second year being a rigging fest seems to be a trend). So he's the only guy I'd have no problem retiring and making a Judge per-emptively to join with whoever wins the first year. Put him on the panel with the board tans, make a special rule he can't join and will be considered co-equal with the year 1 winner of the new thing, both OGs and both become judges.

You could just completely ignore it like how /cov/ ignored Temp's Power Hour, but side tournaments are way more flexible.

I'd treat it sort of like a Ancient Olympics to Modern Olympics thing. 1500 years may have passed between them (17 years may as well as 1500 in internet time, 2007 was as different meme and taste wise from now as 393 AD was from 1896 AD), but there's a lot of tradition and reference that should stick. We wouldn't have Ms. /co/ without them.

I'm not sure if I'd agree with barring them from competing as winners(though Gus has the best case for that) but at the very least Gus and the two Saimoe winners should be on the judges panel pre-emptively like old greek gods looking down, even if we don't treat their current selves as winners.

I was giving it some thought before posting it here, I love these tournaments and I'd want them to continue until they can't which is why putting one of the major tournaments on hold or retire it forever would make sure tournaments never lose their alure and to allow space for other boards to host their own

That was maybe the worst possible choice for a polling site
Extremely inconvenient for legitimate users since they have to fill out constant captchas for every single matchup as well as having to open like 8 different tabs to vote, meanwhile it's extremely easy for riggers to manipulate since they can just spam vote the one character they want to win without any other verification. It really can't be understated how retarded every single decision was for organizing the failed /a/ tournament, it should go down as a textbook example of what NOT to do when starting a tournament

If nothing else was good about that disaster, then atleast there were some /a/nons receptive to the tournament idea. I think they just hate /tnt/ on the basis of being an offboard website (which is fair). The second biggest hurdle aside from earning Banny Janny's ire is tardwrangling shitstirrers that make new threads whenever they want. I noticed that in addition to the elrics guy making new threads before they archived, there were other copycat hosts trying to flood the catalog. I wasn't there when it happened but I saw some of those in the desuarchives. That said, not all that confident in getting tournaments on /a/ off the ground, especially if the same dudes try it again without a plan and in the middle of the regulated tourney seasons.

I would call something "core" if it has major numbers of engagement (only really possible on big boards) and has a crossover with meta and the general tourney autists crowd. /mlp/ of course lacks all this and basically just exists in a niche bubble. Only the four on /co/ and /v/ really do that. I think real (not botched experimental) /a/ and /tv/ tourneys are possible and would easily constitute "core" tourneys if they happened though.

I'm indifferent to it, as long as they don't endanger the mains I'm fine with whatever they want to do. I'm not going to participate just because they are tournaments but each their own.
The thing is that there isn't going to be another /co/ or /v/ culture with tournaments on other boards. People bring up /a/ and /tv/ as destined majors but they have showed relative disinterest everytime it's brought up or even attempted, and that isn't going to change if off-boarders try to colonize them with it. It's not like it's 2019 where they might get inspired, tournaments are well known on the boards but they still in 6 years haven't been inspired to try, and even if they happen it'll never be to that level you're expecting of a major

for me a core tournament needs to meet the following criteria
>needs to be hosted on 4chan, so no /tnt/ tournaments
>needs to be a yearly event with at least two runs, no one-offs
>needs a mutually exclusive topic, /co/ and /v/ don't overlap but /aco/ overlaps with /co/ so it's out
>can't be on /mlp/ because nobody cares about /mlp/
so i would be willing to consider the /an/lympics a core tournament. sure there's barely any connection with the /co/ and /v/ crowds, but i don't think /co/ and /v/ should mingle either.

Personally I'm fine with just having /co/ and /v/. It's hard enough keeping up with one board, and a board needs a certain temperament to handle these "special" events.

Every single /dbs/GOD is a Dragon Ball fan, and since Dragon Ball is one of the most popular anime franchises out there you can find Dragon Ball fans in every single corner of 4chan, and both /co/ and /v/ have ingrained /dbs/ presences (/co/ because of the Death Battle threads, /v/ because of all the Dragon Ball video games) it would've been more surprising if we took longer to find out about the /v/ and /co/ tourneys.

Shego and Kim both flopping in one year is something.
Also Chel ended the 2018 E8 squad. In 2020 3 returned, her, Starfire, and Kim (hence SCK has it's name). In 2022 Starfire and Kim both lost so just Chel. And now this year Chel failed it (albeit Kim came back). Tyr'anhee has been in every even year since 2020, but she flopped in 2018 to Jasmine, so she doesn't count either (albeit I'm guessing this is why she's sometimes included in SCKT).

There isn't a real odd numbered squad, everyone from 2019 flopped in 2021. FARTS got spited too hard for that. In fact looking at it Queen's streak is the longest right now going since 2020. Second strongest is Eris's who is the only 2021 E8 to return in 2023, and ENA who is the only 2022 E8 to return in 2024.

Maybe if you grind them down into the barest of premises like you are doing right now they can be said to be similar, but even that is wrong because for one, Caine doesn't actually force anyone to join his adventures and two, AM's humans are not trapped in a digital world.

To be fair, it's not exactly well-defined how exactly AM manipulates reality around the humans. I've seen versions about nanomachines, advanced genetical engineering, and yes, a virtual reality the humans are trapped in.

But I agree that Caine shouldn't be framed as being just like AM, obviously IHNMAIMS is a much more bleak setting both aesthetically and conceptually.

I think it’s more appropriate to talk about here but it was always strange to me that characters such as Geralt and Xavier were always ostracized for repeatedly making E8s in a row, but those same anons raising those complaints seldom mention Erika for being guilty of the same thing (Co-op 2023, Villains, and /cov/), and is arguably a worse case than them in that regard because she made finals twice.

What people complained about is that characters in teams that reached the E8 weren't barred the following year, just the teams themselves (which is dumb and it should have been the characters since the start). I think those two got the flak of it due to reaching the Elite not only twice in a row in their respective duo tournament, but also /cov/.
There's many characters that have a constant presence in /tnt/ tourneys, having the same ones all the time does get a bit boring.

And apparently having really specific, autistic vendettas against characters for purely meta reasons and not their source material besides the usual Mr. Incredible/Luigi, like Simon and Richter getting flack by presumably one anon for being carried by a thematic match with Dracula back in Co-op last year for example. Where were those complaints when we also had a Persona 2 match with Philemon vs. Nyarly that same round? A King of the Hill match in Tag Team 2023? TWO Luigi vs. Waluigi (and Mario vs. Wario in the first one) matches in a row? Same goes for the anon who keeps whining about how having Dr. Wily in your team was a free ride to E8 despite it being obvious that Doof was the one doing the heavy lifting in /cov/ and jobbing with Eggman twice in Co-op's round 4. Nothing more than hating characters because of stupid tournament shit that has little to do with them as characters.

Its not specified but its shown in game not to be anything with digitalization, to quote wikipedia

Which is also why AM is so GLaD on the route where Nimdok goes back to doing his nazi tech experiments, AM can't make new tech like that, which would likely not be the case if it was a digital simulation.
Not to mention that there are paths in the game that allow the player to leave the complex, only to see the nuclear disaster that is the outside.

Since we're kind of on this topic, I gotta say /cov/ embodied the worst of /tnt/ and is the kind of thing this board gets stereotyped for. Perfectly reasonable, conventional line-up and results and the threads went to shit over "boring" picks and campaign specific favorites losing. And the mutineers were a legit bad team, an unconnected meta joke. Something maybe fine for a few rounds as a reference for here specifically (I doubt it'd ever qualify with main site voters) but it shouldn't have made finals, but both Silver and Erika are gilded favorites here and everyone was in on the psychologist detective joke.

We're on PLUS FOUR CHAN. People can draw a cartoon cat dick here for campaign material and they don't even have to offsite link it, they can use the NSFW function to post it directly.

NTA but there’s reason to assume that the majority of the Simon flak in Co-op 2023 was from a particular campaigner specifically using him as a scapegoat for “undeserving E8s” when he wasn’t the only “silent” character that tournament coasting through E8 against a thematic match with a more vocal opponent, making it come off as more of a personal vendetta against a character for tourney reasons instead of their own merits/source material.

I guess if you want to pretend so. But yes, Aerd always is the center of the conversation when it comes to why Recette is a "bad" queen, and it has always been. https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/140006244/#q140007601

Absolutely not. You can point out a /co/ anon sperging a year ago but the sentiment as to why she's actually not good as a winner in itself have always mostly to do with being underwhelming and too meta boosted. You can see that through archives just as much. There were claims of that before the aerd thing even popped up on /co/.

granted i'm not a /v/ user but i have not once, not ONCE, heard any mention of recette or the game she's from outside of tournament discussion. even black souls i have heard mentioned elsewhere.
supposedly it's /v/ culture, but it'd be like if dr. domino won mr. /co/. the few people who get the joke would appreciate it. everyone else would wonder who the fuck this guy even is and why he won instead of literally anyone else.

No, this perspective is something you only ever really see on /tnt/ and the occasional /co/ stealth thread, it's not a reflection of what the majority of people closest to the topic (/v/tards) actually think. Your specific issue with the character might be different but it's not what made Recette controversial in the first place.

I've seen /v/ users here who mentioned having never ever heard of Fang or Wuya or Zorak (or even fucking Tom somehow) nor their shows before they were mentioned as tournament winners, they could make the same argument about why what they see as a literally who from a series they never heard won instead of Spongebob or Superman or Wonder Woman
I'd say lurk moar (i see recettear threads about once a week or so, there's even one on the catalog right now) but as you said you're not a /v/ user which I appreciate you're honest about, for some reason there's a lot of posts on /co/ from people talking out of their ass about the 2021 /v/ tournaments when they weren't even there for them or don't even use /v/, I guess because they just hear those tournaments winners had big campaigns that helped them win and campaign discourse is relevant to /co/ too so they feel the need to fit in and be part of the broader meta discussion even when they know almost nothing about what they're talking about other than what they hear second-hand. I'm not saying everyone who spergs about Recette/Batter is a /co/ only user but like the other guy said it's somewhat telling when you only see these very specific arguments coming from /co/ and /tnt/ and not from /v/

I’ve always thought it’s been a bit of an open secret that /co/ crossboarded heavily with /v/ (mostly in 2023) and brought all the meta discussion.The explosion of retrospective analysis and strategic talk is attributable to that. And honestly “tourney culture” and meta is almost entirely a /co/ creation I think and mainly a thing that came out of the years of ms. /co/ autism. /v/‘s only real original meta is alliance autism.

My biggest worry about a new board tournament like /tv/ or /a/ this late into the years is that it'll mostly be existing tournament users from /v/ and /co/ molding it into their culture rather than it being something actually being built up by their community. I can believe /a/ but how many people pushing for a /tv/ tournament use it?
