/tnt/ - Tournaments & Events

>>233744
Kind of lame OC for the OP it's just PNGs shuffled around, not art

>>233749
Fitting for this tournament tbh

>>233751
Plural works for me.

>>233749
I'm trying to avoid using repeat teams/artists for the OPs, and then I saw I hadn't used these guys yet. Apologies.

Right, I guess I should also mention the brackets are updated.
https://challonge.com/cov2026

>>233754
>>233755
Legitimately a better host than the /v/ and /co/ ones.

>>233754
...Have Salami or the Freemen been in OPs? I think it was just the Switch Techs prior to this round since their artist is very active(and apparently one of the two characters is an OC Donut steel)

>>233743
>Sally is a woman beater
HUH??

>>233758
Well, no, I don't believe they have. I wonder if that Salami drawfag is still able to work on something...

>>233759
>Tails passed the curse to Sally as last middle finger

>>233764
But you jobbed with him

>>233764
My playgirl 2026

Finale should definitely be Freemen vs. No Regrets.

>>233767
I like salami and switch techs... Women are more enjoyable to look at compared to men.

>>233768
Only Miko is actually attractive.

Switch Techs is one half OC Donut Steel grandfathered in. Not voting for them albeit the art is good.

Who should I pick of Salami Vs Regrets?

>>233769
Sally is pretty.

>>233770
Salami is at least canon in both versions of Archie. And Sally actually can be used by SEGA whenever they want.

So, let's move on from individuals. Which of the 4 possible finales is your favorite?
>Switch Techs Vs Salami
>Switch Techs Vs No Regrets
>Freeman Vs Salami
>Freeman Vs No Regrets

>>233774
I'd like the Switch Techs to face off against No Regrets, personally. But at this point, I wouldn't hate any of those four options

>>233770
>Switch Techs is one half OC Donut Steel grandfathered in.
They WHAT

>>233776
Switch is a /v/ board Console-Tan OC so yeah

>>233777
But switch is so sexy bros.

>>233774
Those are already ranked worst to best, none of them are good.

>>233776
>>233777
I believe Nixie/Switch was part of a Freedom Planet kind of deal (that game's main characters were designed beforehand and then licensed). Speaking of which, has any character from that game qualified for a tourney?

>>233780
jesus, how many shows was this bitch in?

>>233784
Just SatAm and in that christmas special for AOSTH. Surprised they didn't go the extra length of featuring her in Underground by that rate.

BINGOJITA
I NEED YOU BINGOJITA

>>233780
SatAM was originally going to be set in the same universe as The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, just years later with Sonic older.

Kind of a dark idea honestly,bit by bit Eggman had been getting less incompetent, eventually got rid of Scratch and Grounder and got better robots, one day Sonic is doing typical Adventures stuff now a teenager and just...doesn't win one day. Makes you wonder what happened before the start of the intro of SatAM when he's running to warn everyone

>>233793
it was on vita for like three years beforehand

>>233791
It's that famous Trump quote about the count but with an "S" at the end.

>>233795
thank you.

>>233795
Ohhhh, that's what I was missinh

>>233792
Presumably just based on the implication of the opening, Eggman either managed to hide his development of a massive air fleet and the robotizer machines from Sonic until he launched that mass attack and it was too late, or Sonic just got back from trying to fight Eggman in typical Adventures fashion, thawrting this latest scheme in time for Chillidogs...and he lost....

Like what were the pitch bible guys thinking with that? Oh yeah between the two shows Eggman got his act together and build some robots that actually worked and one day beat Sonic and took over the world? It's like if Second Dimension Doof was actually just First Dimension Doof 5 years in the future

I'm still curious why it took them so long to introduce Amy to the audience knowing she came the same year as those two shows.

>>233800
Sally was there in SatAM and by that point Sonic Underground was already in production and didn't have room, and the comics for quite a while after were heavily inspired by SatAM.

Sonic X was the first time a lot of kids met Amy for the first time, me included

>>233801
Same, the closest to watching classic Amy (or Rosy) was in those animations they produced for Sonic Mania.

>>233799
I think Sonic could have made history by doing that. Just casually going from a wacky cartoon show where the villain is a butt-monkey with two moronic minions to suddenly making him the most vile fucker in the planet shifting from the silly aesthetic the show had to a more serious one.

>>233770
Regrets is a really fun crossover pairing, and both characters are cool. Still, Salami isn't a bad alternative. Going to support whoever wins this in the finals.

>>233803
They would have had to have made something to explain the gap and I imagine that's why they gave it up
>Robotnik FINALLY follows through with his threats and gets rid of Scratch and Grounder and Coconuts
>Robitnik gets a little better at managing his ego
>Sonic gets just a little sloppy and cocky as he ages into a teenager instead of a clean little boyscout
>Robotnik gets some actually capable tech without Scratch and Grounder holding him back and doesn't blow all his kit in one go anymore
>One day he finally gets lucky and Sonic gets unlucky and loses. Robotnik isn't stopped and launches his armada and reves up the robotiziers and by the time Sonic rallies/recovers it's too late to stop him, he's already launched an all out attack and is turning people into robots and Sonic doesn't have a way to undo that and can't bring himself to fight his former neighbors

Now you've kind of got me into the idea. You can defiinitely see signs it was planned (Sally showing up in that special that was the last thing tied to Adventure, Tails being in SatAM despite having such a minor role and not really fitting the vibe, Sonic being an crude and edgy older teenager in SatAm while he was written like a responsible 10-12 year old in Adventures)

>>233805
Not to mention just introducing Snively out of nowhere to replace the funny duo that were Scratch and Grounder.

Fiona should sue and cancel /cov/ for allowing this behavior.

>>233744
i came up with a rushed pun name for sally and amy's team. in hindsight i should have chosen "Freedom Fighters"

>>233810
You can ask to change it? I mean we changed the skeleton team's name midway. I dunno.

>>233810
I mean Salami's honestly better then Freedom Fighters IMO. More creative spice
No offence but a lot of you guys can suck at coming up with team names, especially in the /co/ quadrant. I still remember the one year three teams with the name "A boy and his dog" made it in

>>233814
I never liked the clever name component of team tourneys. I suck at thinking of names.

>>233816
cool!

Выходят ли «Смешарики» на западе?

So why was Neo so eager to host /cov/ of all things?

>>233805
I always kind of assumed Sally was Amy but without SEGA's input at the time. Before they decided to go for the chipmunk design, Sally went through several designs similar to Sonic himself.

Mr. Freeman would fit right in in City 17.

>One has to wonder if Gman…errrr…filed some paperwork incorrectly. You know how these….breathes…….things can happen, Dr Freeman. The

>>233820
To campaign and rig for his pick probably

>8 hours of inactivity
Starting /cov/ was a mistake.

>>233825
You just barely realized that?

>>233825
I'm still waiting for art from the Amy/Sally drawfag.

>>233826
I always realized that, but I never realized that people will be this uninterested.

>>233828
There are just too many silent teams, and anyone with a campaign gets free wins because of it.

>>233828
People wanted to skip /cov/ and just save the energy for trios.
I'm not sure why there was a last minute change.

>>233830
The host just popped out of nowhere and declared that he will host /cov/. It just happens without warning and plenty of people have told him they didn't want it.

If we learn anything from last year, he's probably just one of few guys who complained about Dreams Don't Die and might've host this just to get back at their supporters.

Vote for the Free Men
Vote for Mr. Freeman

>>233832
Are Neo and Rusty one in the same?

>>233833
>Time to choose…

>>233832
Holy shit, you might be right.

/tnt/ would benefit greatly from thread IDs at this point

>>233839
>/tnt/ would benefit greatly from thread IDs at this point
Same with 4chan as a whole.

>>233840
that one's a given though

>>233832
That level of autism wouldn't surprise me.

>>233832
>he's probably just one of few guys who complained about Dreams Don't Die and might've host this just to get back at their supporters
Don't forget that he wanted to bring back the E8 of last year after saying this is the finale, so it's within the realm of possibility that he was banking on the Critics winning to get the last laugh.

>>233843
>Don't forget that he wanted to bring back the E8 of last year after saying this is the finale
Didn't he change his mind when I told him it was a retarded idea?

>>233843
I still don't get why that autist got so pissed at the Critics losing. Look, I get why Master Shake and Duke Nukem getting defeated was disappointing and anti-climax. The Critics however, everybody agrees that they are bad picks for /cov/ and having them win will cause tons of issues. Honesty, it sounds like he just really hated side tournaments in general.

>>233846
I mean this year we had 3 Sonic meme teams in the E8, a team with an OC Donut Steel in the E4, and the Xavier team which did nothing.

>Now they’re trying to revive another side tournament for next month
Ok now I know something is fucky here

>>233846
It was either
>he indeed hated side tourneys
>he mained the Critics
>he hated anything relating to Marvel or Capcom (possibly sore over Spiderman?)
>he hated "canon teams" (doesn't really make sense, AVGN and NC were already one, but who knows with this autist)
>he wanted to support the chaos pick
>all of the above

>>233850
I'm down for it either way.

>>233834
Why did Neo mindbreak him that badly? Everyone is loving /cov/ so far.

>Switch Techs only qualified in a technicality
>Has shown up more in OPs than the other 3 combined
>Now “someone” is trying to revive the loll tournament which Miko would qualify for being 14
I’m nooooticing Neo

>>233854
>EVERYone is loving /cov/
Neo…..

>>233855
>the guy accusing everyone of being samefags is using a Switch Tan pic
Indeed.

>Suddenly a ton of people all turn up at once saying how much they’d prefer the Loli tournament over Trios
Neo you aint slick. Let me guess now you’re gonna spam posts to bury this

>>233861
>Both the Salami and Switch posters immediately return after hours of silence to start posting once people notice
Mmmhmmm

Let's just accept Dreams Don't Die were the last canon winners and this was just the filler arc.

>>233860
Nice! Welcome back.

>NEO
>WAKE UP NEO
>THE MATRIX HAS YOU
>KNOCK KNOCK NEO

>>233847
The wonky E8 would support the chaosfag angle.

>>233860
Yo is that fucking blackface?

>>233869
That's Hank's bandana. I do wanna see a colored version of this art tho.

>>233850
>it's the same guy who wants to run that diet ms. /co/ coper tourney in June
>he wants to run the loli tournament of all things
Where are all these wannabe hosts coming from?

I don’t trust anyone here

>>233851
Probably a combination of first and second, with a little bit of five.
The main issue people has with side tournaments is the fact that the rules are less strict which results in picks that don't really have nothing to do with the main theme of the tournament, as well as how they usually win through campaigning rather than popularity which results in obscure ones (usually) getting easy wins.
I believe the retard is trying to do similar to what the Carlschizo did back in 2023 Mr /co/. He was trying to spread a message about the things he hated about side tournaments (literal whos, campooners, picks that don't belong, etc.), and demanded them to be changed to satisfy himself.

I enjoyed the critics. I thought they were pretty funny.

>>233877
They are not vidya or cartoon/comic characters. NC wasn't even whitelisted or grandfathered in.

>>233878
We let Switch Tan in who’s a glorified console tan OC

>>233875
>Mr. Freeman match up to these critiques including the filler/proxy complaint
Oh fuck…

>>233879
Was I defending Switch Tan being let in?

>>233881
Probably not

>>233880
He’s gonna rig out Freeman isn’t he

>Gabriele D'Anon is mocking the accusation claims
He's reading this thread

>>233885
He’s Neo and Neo is Rusty

>>233844
That's literally what happened:
>>230226
You were 100% correct BTW.

>>233886
>he popped up a minute after this was posted

>Neo is now suddenly pretending to be a different person than Gabe because he got caught
He’s panicking

>/cov/ 2025 is generally great
>generally
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooticing this allows for hating Dreams Don't Die for beating the Critics team

>>233893
2025 had great winners but it was kind of a mess thanks to certain suspects.

>>233895
>>233896
Called it lmfao

Well we already know he’s on team Switch Techs, so do you think Neo had something to do with 3 Sonic Teams getting to the E8?

Neo, my trust levels in you are plummeting right now. You’re below Ghost and Temp and currently only above NSA and Numnuts.

>>233897
Anon I literally called Dreams Don't Die great winners. It was Critics among other teams that made it a mess.

>>233900
My bad, I misread your post

>>233895
>this allows for hating Dreams Don't Die for beating the Critics
When did I say or imply this anon
I think they're both good, but in a slightly better world Critics would swap placements with Hispanic Swordsmen in the finale

Why has every single new host since Stats been either a bpd schizo, an idiot, or a narcissistic rigger?

>>233898
Consider how Shadow and Eggman were hot topics for entire years on /tnt/.

>>233893
2024 wasn't really that bad, unless you think that picks like Geralt and Ammy that got wasted with lackluster partners somehow caused problems.
Also, both Grox and Baldi actually showed up this year.

>Neo is samefagging people to agree with him on the other tournament
/tnt/ and it’s consequences have been a disaster for tournament kind

>>233899
>Numnuts
Calling it now, he might has well been Nuts. The way he posts and the way he suddenly pops out of nowhere to host this is giving me similar vibes.

>>233905
2024 only became bad because most of the campaigner teams like the Plunderers once again cried bloody murder after losing in round 3 to more popular characters.

>>233906
/tnt/ kind of brings it upon itself at times for being dumb enough to follow along with questionable decisions or not putting enough pressure to stop questionable decisions.

>Neo for some reason felt having /cov/ a week earlier was too soon; had it run through May instead
>Gabriele wants to have loli bowl in May
>Both were already aware Coayy wanted to have trios in May
>Three tourneys in one month would effectively split the energy
Since this is noticing hour.

>>233907
Huh.

Neo can’t be Temp because Temp hated side tournaments and wanted /tnt/ gone, he’d be fully against this.
Neo probably isn’t NSA either, NSA was mostly in it for /v/ and just used /co/ as a stepping stone and place to push her waifus. There’s no Zim or Wuya or Blackhat or Spiced here.
But Numnuts….Numnuts was in it purely for the attention, he’s switched identities twice before, once successfully from Tourney to Numnuts and another failed attempt caught in time. Numnuts loves deflection, he’s emotionally unstable, and most importantly he’s straight up admitted to rigging before. Neo may well be him.

>>233905
>both Grox and Baldi actually showed up this year.
You mean in Co-op 2026?

Something about this entire conversation feels disingenuous.
Neo's been alright thus far. I highly doubt it's Rusty smurfing who I believe is actually the funposter

>>233905
I didn't see either of them in the qualifiers form that's for sure

>>233913
>Neo's been alright thus far
Nigga…

Ok so the Numnuts theory is looking more and more credible.

>>233912
Yes, they were even active.

>>233911
>Neo cant be Temp
Temp…..

>>233916
Neo is not Numnuts he was vetted

>>233919
…When?

This has been a fun year can we stop hating on the new host?

>>233921
Now type this with the trip on

>>233918
Anyone else notice every time Temp accusations have come up in this tournament it’s only been when Neo is being accused of something else or the teams he may or may not be rigging for are getting shit talked. It’s kinda deflecty like “forget about that stuff what about boogeyman Temp it’s probably just him.”

I’m just noticing…..

>>233916
I love the damage control going on after he played his hand this badly.

>>233924
Temp….

Ok now I’m certain this is Numnuts/Tourney. NeoNuts take your damn meds

I wonder if we can get with the wikifags and discuss where to keep this canon if it really is this much of a farce.

Cant we go back to just having fun and posting cute girls?

>>233929
Half the remaining contestants are men…

>>233929
>Guys drop the subject please
>only female teams left are the Switch team that’s been featured in the OP more than the rest combined and only was let in on a technicality, and the Sonic team which was one of the 3 that made it into the E8 and two of them literally got identical vote totals last round
Noticing

How many of these side tournaments are just Numnuts in a fake coat jacking himself off and rigging the results?!?

>Claimed to be “just some random /tv/ anon” and played dumb when he started
>now seems to be heavily invested in /co/ stuff and knows a ton of tourney lore and wants MOAR SIDE TOURNAMENT
Hmmmmmmm
>>233932
More than youd think

>>233932
Since Neo was heading the /tv/ attempts, he has his fingers on main tournaments too.

>>233935
The ones that were started out of nowhere with no approval just because in a very Numnuts like fashion?

>>233934
It’s like I told him straight out; I didn't trust him during his attempts at /tv/ tourneys and the sudden involvement in /cov/ made me trust him less.

>>233924
I mean it's a known fact that both Temp and Nuts really loathe each other for some reason.

Numnuts fucking loathes fatfags and is a known Loli enjoyer so the pattern fits. Maybe the posting in the first round really ticked him off.

>>233938
Wait a second, is Numnuts the one who initially accused Cheesecake of being Temp?

>>233939
Freeman Anon(s) doesn’t fit the Augie pattern at all

>This is probably a false flag against them to benefit Switch who NeoNuts is seemingly rigging for

>>233942
There really are no winners, figuratively and literally, in this situation.

>>233940
So there is a curse? That’s interesting

>>233942
Dude, the Switch team beat one of Augie's teams all the way back in round 1. There's even a guy roleplaying in foreign languages like that German Star team from the first round.

I feel bad for the Freeman campaigner in any case.

>>233941
All I’m gonna say is a couple years ago someone kept drawing Temp as a bimbo slut and the artstyle was suspiciously similar to the little gremlin man OC Numnuts always uses when he trauma dumps or begs for foregivness . Just saying

>>233941
Fatfags and lolifags have truly been the bane of tournaments.

I can't imagine how much of a dumpster fire finals will be when this is our semifinals.

Numnuts just confess already. Is this like a weird revenge thing because you’re mad you didn’t get to finish Tag Team 2021 and cant LARP as Chris anymore so you need to finish a tournament to get one over on us?

>>233952
our resident funpost fanatic is trying everything he can to derail us

>>233954
>if you criticize our host you must be the resident shit poster trying to derail the tournament everyone clearly loves!
Numnuts just stop. You fucked up the moment you used a second alt to revive the loli tournament.

>>233955
jesus christ man

>>233956
Jesus Christ indeed numnuts.

If it's not numnuts then I can't imagine anyone else who would be defending /cov/ this hard and accuse everyone of being the funposter.
This isn't even the first time it's happened.

>>233958
I thought it was temp who was always accusing everyone of funposting?

>>233959
Well it can't be Temp since he hates Numnuts.
Could be Irishfag since he did the exact same thing back when the /tv/ tournaments started.

>>233953
If this is about TT2021 that would explain his obsession with Temp since he took over after Numnuts got exposed as Tourney. I mean he did expose Domino when he had the opportunity it’s in character for Numnuts
>>233959
>GUYS ITS TEMP I SWEAR
Numnuts……

>>233960
Was is the irishfag who really hated Shaggy's team or was that the texan fag?

>>233962
Which made up c@@b first?

>>233963
I honestly don't know

Haven't really been paying attention but what's the point of speculating when you can just go to the admin here and ask "hey is this tripfag actually X or Y under a different name?"

>>233965
People tried doing that once and it backfired horribly.

>>233966
We have done it several times and it was even instrumental during the NSA kerfuffle. Like, if you really want to know, stop dicking around.

All of this could have been avoided by just telling the faggot you didn't want this tournament btw.

I mean, I have changed names at one point...I went by TripfagAnon late last year.
https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/152042665/#152052013

>Gabe and Neo are having a "conversation" about the loli tournament and possibly moving it another month
Someone is reading this thread and is hiding it very badly.

>>233968
>All of this could have been avoided by just telling the faggot you didn't want this tournament btw.
We tried. He didn't listen and people speaking up against it were accused of being the resident funposter.

>>233969
I don't personally think you are suspicious but this whole thing was a very dumb move.

>>233969
>the very same troll tag team people were talking about
Now let's talk about the other trip you used Rusty.

I may be noticing too hard and connecting threads that don’t exist, but I just want to blurt this out.
>There’s a “””meme””” of every side tournament getting derailed and spammed once Ruber gets knocked out, except funnily enough this one.
>The posts that lead to people suspecting Frankie/Cheesecake was Temp were done during Mr. /co/, a Ruberfag shows up in the same thread causing trouble, and then Frankiefag later insists those posts werent them. Numnuts has a weird obsession with Temp
>Numnuts likes Ruber, and was involved in an alliance with Ruber
>There have been multiple Ruberfags over the years, and the only tournament to not get spammed to hell when he was taken out was this one run by Neo.
>All the other evidence above me getting buried by the suspiciously fast moving thread like Numnuts history of changing his name and pretending to be a new anon or him drawing weird art of female temp or his massive ego and psych issues and obsessive behavior in general.

I think Numnuts has been maining Ruber for a while since he can’t do Chris and so picked a different ex plunderer. I think Numnuts while supporting Ruber falseflagged Frankiefag to paint them as Temp either due to hating fatfags or due to his weird Temp obsession from TT2021. And I think this whole meme about tournaments falling apart when Ruber loses is because Numnuts is throwing a shit fit and sabotaging them because his pet pick lost and if he can’t win nobody can which is something he has a track record of doing. It only didn’t happen this time because he’s finally running the show again and needs to finish and have this canonized because of his ego. I could be reading way too far into just another mediocre side tournament, but I can’t help but notice…

What WAS an "ordinary /tv/ anon" doing on a /co/ tournament attempt anyways?

>>233978
>look I posted le Pierce Brosnan meme, that totally means I'm not Numnuts!
You dig yourself deeper with every post.

>>233976
Holy shit Temp shut the fuck up. I know for a fact you and NeoAnon are not the same person just by reading your posts, but this just pure derangement syndrome over Numnuts. Also everyone knows that Frankiefag = Cheesecakefag = (you)

I haven't participated meaningfully in this /cov/ whatsoever I'm just reading the threads

>>233977
And he said he didn’t know a lot about tournaments and yet now…mayhe he figured we’d forget that part of his backstory.

>>233978
Numnuts….
>>233981
Numnuts….
>>233980
He’s getting sloppy and panicking

>>233983
I didn't know a lot about RUNNING tournaments, anon.

>>233985
Noooooticing

>>233984
>He’s getting sloppy and panicking
extremely ironic post

>>233980
If you pay any attention, Numnuts only shows up every once in a while to complain about getting banned on the main site, or sperg out about how he totally is a born again Christian.

>>233978
>It probably was…
We told you multiple times to drop it when you opened your mouth and yet you pressed on; you don't get to be this self deprecating when this is on you not listening.
Even in the event you aren't a thread personality in disguise, you've proven to be a retard incapable of running tourneys and not with of any trust.

>>233978
>>233976
Why am I starting to suspect the reason that fat fetish question was added was so you could prune some of the voters that picked the wrong answer?

>>233988
So true numnuts with a different posting style

>>233989
>Born Again Christian
So he’s reborn…..Neo means new….

>>233985
And yet you put yourself in charge of niche side tourneys…

#noticing a bunch of iPhone ellipses being used here

>>233995
>guys ICuck is behind all this! Ignore how this tourney is going up in flames
I grow bored of this.

>>233996
>I grow bored of this.
we all hope you do

>>233997
So true numnuts. It would help to stop being a passive aggressive bitch.

>>233998
Anon, literally anyone who posts from phone is accused of being icuck. I've been accused of being icuck and I use my PC to post.

>After the /tv/ attempt happens some anons start asking if Tag Team should go back to mains(If Numnuts cant rule it no one can)
>A brand new trip fag who is also “just a random /tv/ anon” shows up to adopt a troll attempt (the exact same MO as Neo) to poison the well
>Tournament is a complete dumpster fire that would surely poison the well forever
>Except the mods never actually step in
>Rusty panics and suddenly changes his mind and deletes everything
Numnuts did the troll tag as Rusty purely to cause more chaos and destruction and fuck it up more, but backed out when the mods weren’t banning everything in response. The MO was exactly like Neos, show up claiming to be from /tv/ and adopt a troll tournament

>>234001
>he continues to deflect when people have had problems with the host for a while now
notice how it went from temp to the hillbilly. i wonder what thread personality he'll skip to next when people continue asking questions.

see

we know it's you hillbilly. don't make us get black hand again after you tried killing the last two tournaments.

>>234002
>phone apostrophes
I know who this is. Get Black Hand to expose and ban him and the tournament will go back to normal.

>>234004
Domino/Ghost I'd reckon. They have some beef too

>>234010
We are this close to getting Black Hand.

>>234011
Why didn't Black Hand do anything about the fat fetish art spammer?

>>234012
Welp…at least we know what he jerks off to now.
