/tnt/ - Tournaments & Events

Well, everything has finally come to an end. The last Heroes/Villains tournament for this year is over, so let me voice some of my thoughts on these tournaments and their future.

First of all, I want to once again thank everyone who has participated in these tournaments. It really was a special feeling to see my autistic idea for these get traction and result in four full-blown side tourneys where people were having fun. I loved being able to provide an opportunity for different anons' mains and campaigns to shine, especially for those who have trouble even qualifying in the main tournaments. Even with all of my fuck-ups like all the delays and constant small mistakes in the forms, these tournaments still turned out to be a good time for the anons attending them. It's kind of crazy to think how much has already happened this year and we haven't even technically entered the main tourney season yet. I hope this is a sign of things to come for the flourishing future of tournaments.

Now, as some of you noticed, there seems to be a growing divide between the main tournament culture and the /tnt/ culture, at least on /co/. Part of me feels a bit guilty for possibly contributing to this, so I want to make it clear that I was never really trying to make any kind of statement regarding tournament culture. I simply wanted to have tournaments for heroes and villains. And in the end, no matter what, I think it was all worth it.

Now, what is next? As you've seen in the results, the majority wants the Heroes and Villains tournaments to continue. I'm glad you enjoyed them so much and I would love for these to happen again... But not necessarily the way they were held this year. Having four of these in the span of a few months every year would eventually grow stale and turn this into bland mini-versions of the main tournaments. Not to mention that having so many in rapid succession is tiring for both me and the tourney audience, as we've seen by decreased activity in this one. Plus it would be nice to leave more space for other potential side tourneys. So while I want to hold another edition of these in the future, I'm going to think about some ways to diversify the format. Some anons in the feedback form made some interesting suggestions:

>While I voted for them to be a one-time thing, I think they should come back but not every year or have only a single pair per year (Heroes one year, Villains another). It means not having four tourneys in a row, which is exhausting to some and also leaves space for something like /cov/.
>I think, though the tournaments are fun and great, that there needs to be some kind of measure to prevent burnout. Maybe having a single tournament per board instead of having two. With different themes each time, maybe?

So far I'm leaning towards the single tournament per board idea, but I'll be considering both among the other ideas. As always, I'm open to suggestions on how these could be modified to be more feasible in the future.

Anyway, I don't like planning for a whole year ahead. Pretty much anything can happen in that time. For the time being, I think I've had my fair share of hosting. I might come back to help for /cov/, but aside from that, I think this is it for me this year. We'll see how things play out in the future. In that time, take care and have fun in the main tourneys.

I wonder if this has to do with Tag Team 2022's results or if /v/ is slowly but surely becoming the dominant "waifu board" of these tournaments.

>>59571
*week

the Heroes and Villains of /co/ elite 8 get into a fight
which team wins

>>59561
That's fair. I didn't do it after finals this time because of the four movies I streamed for this, so it would've lasted until the early morning for me, but I'll keep that in mind for Mr. /co/ and /cov/ since I want to try it for those two as well. I thought about doing a smaller stream for the two finalists tonight but I imagine people are tired right now and wouldn't be interested.

>>59573
Villains Elite because Farquaad and Yzma would cheat by bringing in Thelonious and Kronk respectively.

>>59565

I remember someone made an idea involving mixing both /co/ and /v/ for each two tournaments.

It's sounds like a good idea, but I think it'll create some imbalance between the two which would result in intense backlash from anons of these boards.

I don't know myself, but I guess would shouldn't worry much by this point.

>>59500
>Spoilers
for what purpose? These were fine as an experiment & test of Samaritanon's hosting abilities and nothing more. These were fun sure and I like the idea of a "minor" /co/ and /v/ tourney for their mainline counterparts (like how NASCAR's Talladega is the big event but there are several smaller races held throughout the year) but I don't think these in particular should be recurring.

>>59586
that's a different guy

>Matias Torres
>Hank Hill
>Doctor Doom
These are your Heroes and Villains.

>>59564
You'd still call it intentional if they were against each other in round 3 or 4.

>>59594
>the first and last winners of these were the 2nd seed
Funny coincidence

>>59594
and three of them are DTVA!

>>59599
Torres and who else?

>>59600
Hank Hell and Dr D I guess since Disney own them

>a DTVA character wins villains of /v/
>a /v/ character wins villains of /co/
Now we're even.

>>59602
If only Thanos was here.

>>59603
What, Bane from Arkham? I mean, it would probably be fun, but at this point you can just wait for Tag-Team and nominate them together properly.

>>59605
No, FBI Agent from Alien Hominid.

>>59607
Jack?

>>59608
Which one?

It is okay to talk about the /cov/ tournament, even though it's only two months away?

I'm actually looking more forward to that than the main tournaments.

>>59610
Sure, go ahead.

>>59565
I have a suggestion on how to have only two tourneys instead of four. There are two ways this could be done:

First way is to have what I call Good /v/s Evil for /v/, and /co/od vs. Evil for /co/. How this works is that the top 64 heroes and top 64 villains each get their own poll. An additional true final round is added so the winning hero and winning villain duke it out.

The second way is to have Heroes and Villains from all of entertainment allowed in their respective tournaments. Heroes from all over /a/, /co/, /tv/ and /v/, and Villains from all over as well.

Either way would not only make them much more vocal, but would also decrease burnout ten-fold.

>>59615
Not really sure about the first three, but for Claudia, I'd go with her and Adeleine.

Just realized that I haven't seen the wrestling commentators for the past couple rounds. Wonder if they're still grieving over Bray Wyatt.

>>59615
>Claudia and Adeleine (Artstanding)
>Mina and Tigger (The Wonderful Thing About Pokemon)
>Stacey and Nikki (Keep, Change, Flipnote)
The BSC stuff you've been doing is great, keep it up!

>>59618
It's been a busy past few days at /pw/.

>>59626
but remember, not you guys.

>>59617

Thanks for the choice; though to be quite honest, I was partially thinking of choosing Adeleine over the others since she would be perfect for her. For the other two, I'm going to use Mina for Co-op and Nikki for Queen.

>>59621

>Artstanding

Nice team name, though I already came up with one myself: Young Fine Artists.

The three characters are supposed to be meant for Claudia, not for the others. However, you did gave me an idea for Tigger's /v/ partner; Incineroar from Pokemon and I'll be using that team name.

>The BSC stuff you've been doing is great, keep it up!

Thanks, maybe hopefully at least one of them get to enter the tournament some day.

Amphibia girls? Lost naturally and it's always satisying to remind them that.

POST YOUR MS. /ACO/ AND /CO/ MAINS!

>>59634
>/aco/

>/co/

>>59592
I hope to see you around for /cov/, I'm planning on nominating Dick and Waluigi again as the Dastardly Duo.

>>59635
In that case I'll be nominating a pail of water.

Just a reminder /aco/ allows /a/ characters now. You can post more than just /v/ and /co/ characters now.

>>59640
>a pail of water
Sounds more like Ms. /d/.

>>59641
Bejitabros we're finally gonna win a tournament

>>59643
Before TARDku does of course

>>59641
I can easily see them dominating the thing unless there are limits in place.

Rank them all:
>Co-op
>King of /an/imals
>Ms. /aco/ 2022
>Heroes of /v/
>Villains of /v/
>Heroes of /co/
>Villains of /co/

>>59645
As the guy who nominated her i am proud she got past round one and glad she got some fun times in the tournament.

>co-op

>Hero/v/es
Pretty tight
Didnt participate in /aco/

>>59649
>Heroes of /v/
Winner was predictable but Phoenix deserved it to break his E8 curse and he's a good representation for /tnt/.
>Villains of /v/
>Villains of /co/
My only complain is that Doom became soon predictable thanks to his presence, high seed and the opportunity to finally see a comic book character win, which is never gonna happen for the main tournaments. The closest to that is Jameson.
>Co-op.
>Ms. /aco/
It's funny in the sense the winner is practically banned, my complain here is that it should have had more attention to it somehow.
>Heroes of /co/
Similar complain to Villains, it was apparent way before we reached the elite 8 that Hank was going to win. He's a good winner but the tournament became predictable soon after.
>King of /an/imals
I can think of many animals that could be excellent winners (I nominated Goat and was confident he was going to do well) but how in bloody hell crows had that much advantage above anyone else is beyond me.

>>59649
>Heroes of /v/
>Villains of /v/
>Co-op

>Heroes of /co/

Didn't participate in /aco/.

Well then...

>>59649

>Villains of /co/
>Heroes of /co/
>King of /an/imals

>Tag Team 2022

>>59667
You mean the Doom thread? Kek

Now that we have our /co/ villains, post your favorite Elite Eight member for each:
Tag-Team: Xavier and ENA
Co-op: Layton and Luke
/an/lympics: Shark
/v/ Heroes: Little Mac
/v/ Villains: Kefka
/co/ Heroes: Optimus Prime
/co/ Villains: Lord Farquaad

>>59639
LOL it’s true

>>59670
Tag-Team: Goofy and Max
Co-op: John and Garcia
/an/lympics: Pongo
/v/ Heroes: Ayin
/v/ Villains: Kefka
/co/ Heroes: Superman
/co/ Villains: Yzma

Of both Heroes and Villains of /co/, who had your favorite campaigns?

>>59670
Better question:
Who were your favorite snubs in each? Hard mode: Not your own picks

>>59687
As if my picks ever get snubbed

>>59685
For Heroes, Shou, Hugh, and Daredevil. For Villains, Farquaad, Hades, and CIA.
>>59687
Not really sure for Heroes. I guess Hugh but Shou was a good opponent to lose to. As for Villains, I wish Cobra Commander could've qualified and that Hades was in Elite Eight over Ruber.

>>59694
NSA probably will, but he will change it in the form anyway.

>>59687
All my characters.

>>59685
Dr doom had a pretty good one overall by absolutely roasting each and everyone one of his foes because in the end he was right. His match against voltor was a highlight. Farquadd’s campaign was basically a feature length version of the campaign he had back in mr /co/ 2022 but it was without a doubt my favorite matches involving him were Against Lex and back to doom, I’m convinced that mugen OC is what ultimately won his match(and last minute too). I had fun with both and I cannot wait to see what mr and ms /co/lympus have in store this year

Ok, the after party thread is done.

Miss /co/ hype is officially on

>>59649
>Heroes of /v/
>Villains of /v/
>Co-Op
>Heroes of /co/
>Villains of /co/
>/an/lympics (would be higher if T-Rex won)
>Tag-Team
>wasn't there for /aco/

Can we talk about our rankings in a little more detail? I'm actually surprised at how many people voted for Heroes of /v/ for 1st place. I though I was the only one who saw it that way. I think it did have the most charm to it out of Heroes and Villains tourneys, as it was the most sporadic and natural-feeling one, and still a relatively new format so everyone was trying to figure it out and just see what they could do and how far their mains could go. Villains of /v/ is a close second, I might switch them at some point. It wasn't as sporadic and was closer to main tournaments, but a ton of fun nonetheless and the most overall activity.

Co-Op was great and paved the way for the rest, but I honestly think the team format for both it and Tag-Team is a bit of a crutch and a lot of times it's just one of the two carrying the team.

The /co/ tournaments aren't nearly as close as /v/ ones, here I can clearly say Heroes was better and more active even if I enjoy the Villains winner more. Heroes was consistently fun with a bunch of diverse campaigns and all the jokes about the sleeping characters. Villains had its moments but was dragging its feet a lot of the time due to lower activity. I wonder how the /co/ and /v/ tourneys would go if their order was flipped like originally planned.

The /an/ tourney was a cool concept, comfy in its own right and I hope we do it again, but the crow winning will never not be baffling to me.

Tag-Team is self-explanatory.

It looks like no one is making the elite 8 pic? Looks like it's up to me then. I will begin working on it once I'm back from work. Expect it tomorrow.

>>59750
I think everyone is just waiting for Zorak to announce the murder games too

>>59750

I hear someone was going to make a pic that is basically the Heroes/Villains of /v/, but with /co/ characters.

>>59754
I think it was the same person, i.e. the Judy anon. Though he may be busy preparing for Ms.

>>59718
The /an/ brackets should be really shit if a fucking crow won it.

>>59757
At least it wasn't some shitty non-existent animal that won it.

>>59713
I agree with you on Heroes of /v/. I thought it was the most fun and had the best Elite Eight. Villains of /v/ was also good and definitely had the better matches, with stuff like Louie vs. King Boo vs. Bernkastel, Erika vs. Canbine, and the KKK Three-Way, but I didn't find it as enjoyable as Heroes.

Co-op was really good, but I hope if there's a next time that there's less teams where one character is doing all the work. I also think the winners are just whatever and that 2nd-6th place would've made for better winners.

Heroes and Villains of /co/ are about equal for me. I like the results and Elite Eight for Villains a lot more, but thread-wise Heroes was better. Villains being the fourth tournament in a three-month period and so close to Ms. /co/ was its downfall, as I imagine with more active threads that it would've been better than Heroes.

/an/lympics was fun and comfy, and I hope there's another one. Wasn't there for Tag-Team or /aco/ so I won't give my thoughts on them.

>>59713
see >>59652
I consider Heroes and Villains of /v/ pretty much equal, but I prefer a lot of the characters I nominated for Heroes more than Villains. However, if these have to come back, it shouldn't be every year.
Co-op comes very close second as I still enjoyed the other two a bit more; I liked the break, it was fun to do stuff before it truly starting. I'm looking forward to the next one.
This tourney was a calm but very cozy way to finish the quartet of tournaments. I didn't get to do much, having only three characters qualify and all lost Round 1, but I still did some things afterwards. Mostly musicposting, but I like doing that, I did more of that here which may be why I prefer this one.
Ms. /aco/ catch-up thingy tourney's winner being the Banned Queen is funny, 10/10 would get banned again.
Heroes of /co/ was fine, but I didn't enjoy it as much, probably due to not having done much. The qualifying was certainly rougher for the /co/ tourneys, characters required many more votes to enter; this is another reason why I think the /v/ ones were much better.
/an/ is self-explanatory, plants should've won.

I will support him in the same way I supported Yzma with my dick

>>59774
Bejitabro btw.

I liked them and I wouldn't mind seeing them come back for the main tournaments. I don't have a specific favorite that you did.

>>59776
They’re great

>Oogie killed The Monarch
Well, doesn't look like the butterfly will do well in Mr. /co/.
Don't worry about it, these posts still crack me up. Will you continue them during the main tournaments?

>>59897

But aren't those when the main tournament starts?

Where the elite 8 pic? Still working on it

>>59901
Who cares about that? The Murder Games is where it's at.

>>59926
I hope Zorak adds the Murder winners to the Hunger Games too.

>>59924
It will be finished tomorrow. Just added the final details.
