Comics and Random Art Battles /crab/ Gaiden is the off season thread between the /crab3/ and the /crab4/ tournament this year.

What is /crab/?

Comics and Random Art Battles is an annual multi-board OC tournament with a strong emphasis on collab and storytelling.

What do we do here?

We chill and prepare for the fourth tournament (/Crab/4) in the spring/summer of 2025 with art, stories and mini events.

Wanna join? Introduce your character and pass the PIT challenge.
Some crabs that participated in /crab/3 still do stuff with their characters despite the tournament being over too.

You can check all the crab stuff here, /crab/ Pastebin Archive: https://pastebin.com/WtsPZYXq

We have a shitcord server too, mostly for organization.
To join you have to submit your character for crab4 and its introduction in any artistic format passing the pit challenge. Link: EkqvpyFm

If you don't want to join a (((discord))) server and would rather want to participate in the thread, simply post your entry itt and be present when the official tournament thread is active.

Welcome to the /CRAB/ (Comics & Random Art Battle) Gaiden for the forthcoming fourth tournament. “CR4B”, if you will.

>WHAT IS CRAB?
An annual art tournament where (you) enter your Original Character, join a team of other characters, and strive to win it all at #1. The grand prize for your team: One collective wish from the Gamemaster.

>HOW DOES IT WORK?
There are three rounds, the first two of which are unique setting. Traditionally, the third round is a duel between you and another contestant in the bucket. Each round, you will be matched up with another artist of comparable skill level. A prompt will be give to you and your partner in that setting. Draw a comic, make an animation, do game dev, create something visual with a narrative and hope it beats your contestant through the votes before the round’s deadline. Whoever gets the highest votes, wins the round!

>CAN I JOIN?
I don’t know? Can you?

You will need permission to enter once you defeat our guardian cryptid: Florida Man. FM keeps the riffraff out of The Bucket, our tournament’s location. Draw something narrative with your OC beating FM to enter(a comic is best).

4chan users enter through here: https://discorHuh, I put that link somewhere. Hm, you’re smart enough figure it out. d.gg/PYpYBkRFWB

>WHO ARE YOU?
I’m M4tron, your commentator on the 4chan side of the game. To keep my backstory short, I used to be a super-assassin back when I was younger, but, this is my job now. My Newgrounds counterpart, Debbie, is here: https://www dot newgrShe’s great for a cop. ounds dot com/bbs/topic/1544315

We commentators make sure the spectators and (filthy) casual observers get a proper idea of whats going in the threads so that they don’t get lost.

The Gamemaster oversees the entire game. From his space-station lair, the Crab Star, his word is law.


>WHY A BUCKET?
Ever hear of the term: “Crabs in a bucket?” How people who try to get better but get pulled down by their peers? It’s kind of like that in the spheres of the art realm like /ic/. CRAB continues that same spirit.
