So what the fuck are we gonna do for tournaments if 4chan is down? Do Queen and King of /v/ here?

The tourneys happen in the last few months of the year, gookmoot may be an incompetent retard but he wouldn't let it dead that long

Honestly I'd simply quit the tourneys if the original site ain't coming back. I ain't voting in a ms. 8chan or something.

If 4chan is truly shit and finished, then so too shall the tournaments. You can't just move them to an altchan because the culture and history in which the tournaments were made in would not be present. If 8chan decided that they want to make their own /co/, /v/, or even /a/ tournament, then they're free to do it. However, you can't pretend that they are in any shape or form real continuations of the tournaments made in 4chan.

If the site isn't back up by the end of the year, then we simply don't have any of them for 2025. We could have some random side tourney here, sure, but not the main ones.

I know everyone is on their adderall withdraw period but it's far too early to doompost about this. They said a month for it to return and it's been one week. They have to basically redo the entire website and all securities attached and that isn't a fix they do immediately. The site is also far too valuable and low effort for them not to have it return.
Even if their estimate is wrong and we grant them 3 months to do shit it'll come back far before even Ms is scheduled to begin.
My interest isn't if the site returns for tournaments to resume (it will), but what the effect on what happens in the tournaments will be.

My gut feeling tells me the site will be back up by the end of the Summer.
>what the effect on what happens in the tournaments will be
Some have predicted that there will be lower voter turnouts because of the amount of people who will have moved on by then. However, it's possible we'll actually see an increase in newfags, and thus possible voters. 4chan going down is the most attention it's received in a while. It coming back will certainly catch people's attention as well. The extent of how much this would translate into voter count may depend on when the site comes back.

And yet that legacy wasn't enough to actually get to them to qualify. Almost as if you need to actually be liked than coast on legacy from years ago.

It already qualified in the very first iteration. And like most things from the first iteration, it never happened again.

And that's without taking into account if they implement new retarded rules which will make the interactions in the thread all the more stupid, or also how people will throw the towel about the tournaments and just barely have just a bunch voting in the poll.

if you go to 4chan it says "see you soon" so the site will be back up way before Ms./co/ starts

The Shadow flash games from last King of /v/ are archived at least on the gallery so they can probably be reuploaded somewhere

Doesn't it help save space though? The problem being that not every site supports it, not the format itself.
