Why are coomers so fucking sensitive lmao

>>61916
Obvious falseflagger. He was trying to drag Toph and Raven down too.

>>61924
What is this stuff about "waifufags" anyways? Is this not a waifufag tournament?

>>61924
This isn't really a problem on Queen, why is that?

>>61926

It's really wasn't....until now.

>>61930
Good. That means Ms. /co/ is improving.

Jobbing is my new passion btw.

>>61927

Because /v/ has been on 4chan more longer than /co/ so they know a thing or two about handling drama, plus the sight of cute girls is wholesome enough to warm all the anons around.

>more longer

>>61935
The one in which you always kneel and not your gay fantasy in that pic, Gokubro. No wonder the prince is undefeated against TARDKU

Here's are some few examples from the first afterparty (and this isn't the only thread that similar shit happens):

I admit, I kinda blown it out of proportion by accusing them of saying Johanna's victory was "stolen" so I apologize for that; what I meant by that was how they refuse to accept their loss and move on. While now I know that there's still Johanna fans who have fun back in 2021, my point still stands though.

>>61952
It's pretty apparent it's gonna be Wuya vs. Eris.

>>61957
Just saying even if Eris lost, CHAOS will prevail

>>61953
EEEEEH?!

I literally can't find the poll

>>61960
The OC anchor

>>61953
huh, where is that from?

Lmao FARTS BTFO

>FARTS bullshit gonna continue for years more
fuck

>The FARTS have lost

>fartsfags get super cocky
>they get BTFO
Love to see it

Who do I vote for now?

>>61966
No one was cocky.
Eris vs. Wuya was an obvious call.

Next year, the FARTS will be called FAS now.

>>61971
Fitting

>still putting loser's bracket as a question

>computer ran out of battery mid-thread
hail eris!

I guess as a /tnt/ anon I should be rooting for the two biggest campaign picks but honestly I don't care about either of them. Raven vs. Toph seemed like it could be a legendary finale, this is whatever. A pick whose main appeal is one joke ("heh... these tournaments sure are chaotic") and someone who had been losing Round 1 for years and suddenly inexplicably blew up in popularity (not accusing Wuya of rigging, but this is still really weird). While better than the last two years, this is gonna be just yet another boring underwhelming Ms. /co/ finale for me. Maybe one day I will get faster at drawing and will be able to draw 5 pictures per round like Erisfags or Wuyafags to make a girl I care about win.

>>61975
I actually really like Wuya and Eris and appreciate the campaign effort, but I would have vastly preffered we finally get one of the legacy girls a win and retire the FARTS meme. And "underdog" swerve win is getting predictable at this point that it's no longer a swerve.

Think I'm starting to sympathize with the Fang* asteriskfags...

>anti fangs brought up fang just to tantrum
Lmao they’ll never stop

>>61979
NSA dug up drama again with his gay security question.

>>61979
Can't blame them.

>FARTSfags are still coping

Kek

>>61983
I think wholesomeness in these tourney's are mostly fake. It's about anything to be the winner.

Eris is winning. Could call that back in Round 4.

>>61984
That’s a bummer, I genuinely enjoy cheering on other people. Ironic considering nearly all my mains are despicable villains and/or huge fucking assholes.

>>61924
>This shit again
No one buys your tribalfagging bullshit.

>>61984
I think that's a load of bullshit.

>>61983
I think it's a combination of funposting running rampant, and people that are salty about FARTS still being a thing.

>>61988

1. That happened only in the semifinals and right now, things are getting more calmer now.
2. If you're going to blame anyone for tribalfaggtory, blame the ones who are trying to divine and conquer by making imaginary enemies from people they hate.

>>61992
>Things are getting more calmer
Are we looking at the same thread right now because this is not getting calm, at all, and the previous round was very chill despite there being multiple shitters trying to cause a ruckus.

I'm very OKAY with these finalists, and it's probably been the best ms. bracket since 2018, but
>200 votes openly removes in qualifiers
>voter turnout halved
>NSA e-mail surveillance blacklist
>NSA known to be removing votes
>NSA demonstrating erratic and arbitrary behavior, even going behind other hosts backs
This year should gets asterisked.

I hope I can give my proper thoughts on the whole email verification thing once the tournament is over. I feel like there’s an elephant in the room no one has bothered to point out yet and a reason why this year’s results have been much better received within the threads than 2021 and 2022, beyond all potential rigging.

OH NO NO COMEBACK KID BROS

>>62001
But she did make a comeback.

>>61975
>>61976
I can't complain because the character I want to win Mr. /co/ this year hasn't been in an elite eight yet despite being close for a few years now.

>>62001
She did make one, she got back to the elite 8 and didn't lose by much.

Anything Iceberg worthy happen?
Only thing I can think of is Dedede.

>>62008
Aaaaaah fuck I haven’t updated the iceberg since last year. I’ll get on with it next weekend and take all the suggestions I can.

>>62009
bruh
you missed lit a whole year of /tnt/ lore

>>62010
non-canon

>>62011
Better than the EU. Look at it right now.

>>62012
/tnt/ *is* the EU.

>>62009
Rath, Omniman and Megamind were active too

> Those bottom 128 results
Damn Cleo, imagine smurfing when you are technically 191 in the qualifiers for this tournament and losing to Blu Rivers at 1021. Anyways congrats to Blu Rivers and Paprika. It's anyone's match now.

>>62013
/tnt/ is Legends

>>62009

What's the best place to see the tournament iceberg?

What did Matias Torres win?

>>62022
One million cans that he has to pick up.

>>62008
>>62009
We're at a point where we really need to stop adding irrelevant shit like "some avatarfag posted in the threads 5 times" to the iceberg. Only the most important things, like the e-mails or "I don't care what the thread thinks, I run these tournaments".

This has been one of the worst threads of the entire tourney so far.
>blatant funposting raid by a few faggots
>retards too fucking retarded to not take the bait
>more of that "neopuritan" rabbit hole, which seems very gay and I think everyone associated with it should kill themselves
>campaigning for the finalists is pretty much just talking about porn
>more NSA bitching, this time with someone pretending to smugly defend him
imagine the finale of Mr.

>>62025
Have the finale threads ever had this few posters before? It's on page 9 but there's only 81 IPs.

>>62023
Best. Prize. Ever.

>>62025
Mr. will still be good again.

>>62031
We'll see.
>inb4 /tnt/ level voter turnout

>>62034
What makes you say that?

I thought this thread was gonna be better after the last one, but it's shaping up to be pretty shitty too, even if it isn't as bad.

>>62034
I feel you are worst girl.

>>62035
Because it keeps going back to the same faulty points over and over: that there's been too much pin up art in favor of the contestants instead of more thematic drawings, that Eris doesn't have a real narrative going for her with very little references to her source material, the constant comparisson to Jack-off as if the dissenter in question had no other point of reference, etc.
Both Eris and Wuya supporters have been incredibly dedicated with their campaigns and the OC and discussion made from all the recurring jokes in the threads just go on to show their anons are paying attention to what's going on. Yeah, pin up fanart has been prevalent in both contestants' campaigns, so fucking what? It's been like this since forever, Ms. /co/ is a *WAIFU* contest where the majority of the voterbase is male. Tyr is one of the most beloved characters here for her campaigning, and two thirds of her tourney art are just pin ups. It's such a bizarre point to start bringing up now that we are in our sixth edition. Same thing for the whole "narrative" argument: tell me, what kind of oh-so-thrilling storylines did our other finalists have that these ones can't even compare? Spinel was a chaotic shirlord FOTM pick, Monarch won to make up for her show being abruptly cancelled, Betty was partly chosen due to spite... The only one with something close to having a proper storyline of her own was Fang. And again, it's not like there has been no discussion about TGAOB&M and Xiaolin Showdown. Lots of it, in fact.

The Jack-off comparisson is especially retarded in retrospect of Zorak vs Carl having a closer relation with this tournament, also another finale where both finalists had been supporting each other prior to the encounter itself and were pitted againts heavy hitters in the semis. People keep saying this is a lap victory for Eris, but taking all of this into account, I genuinely have no idea who is going to win.

>>62038
I honestly don’t think this could be entirely because someone is new to the tourney’s, I’m fairly new to these myself but I like the potential for the finale, even if the threads after the final 2 picks have been really bad, the bitching about pin up art could be because someone doesn’t know better but I also doubt it, the fact someone compared it to a /v/ finale would suggest that whoever is so upset about it isn’t a complete newbie.

>>62039
Not a complete newbie, just someone participating in a /co/ tournament for the first time. I don't want to insult all of our local /v/fags who have been visiting Ms. /co/ out of interest, but I'm convinced the bitching is the result of one of them.

>>62038
>I genuinely have no idea who is going to win.
Eris is 90% winning though. These kinds of trends you feel with years of tourney impressions. The traction and tourney thematics has always been mostly on her side and more voters just know about Grim Adventures.

>>62025
Oh god how many votes will mr have this year?

btw the fake thread has a new form that's also collecting emails so I wouldn't vote if I were you

>>62038
>The Jack-off comparisson is especially retarded in retrospect of Zorak vs Carl having a closer relation with this tournament, also another finale where both finalists had been supporting each other prior to the encounter itself and were pitted againts heavy hitters in the semis.

This IS closer to Jack-Off than Zorak vs Carl, especially with how shitty the threads got. Zorak vs Carl were on much more even terms, had more thread support behind them and it wasn't as predictable. Most of the thread didn't get jaded and disillusioned from Courage and Daffy losing, but they did from AM and JC losing, just like now.

>>62058
The threads are jaded because of meta drama moreso than anything though.
Hopefully without the email stuff Mr. will be back on track at least.

>>62058
It’s strange at least in my eyes since both finalists are the two contestants with the most art made of them and had tons of thread presence and support until this round. Maybe the real cause is due to the fact the characters are too similar?
Also, this >>62059

That thread was one of the most boring one's we've had so far, I could feel the lack of spirit coming from the posters there, God how did things get this bad.

>jannies delete the real thread and keep the fake

Ah christ...

Is this how this tournament is gonna end, with a wimper instead of a bang? Fuck.

>>62066
You didn't get banned, I hope...

least drama-filled day in ms /co/

>>62067
no but I'm not gonna use it
see you in an hour or so

>>62069
Have a good hour man, you've earned it.

>>62064
it's not Ms. /co/ without a misfire

>>62072
The real Mrs /co/ thread by Balls got yeeted in favor of a fake thread that should've been deleted hours ago.

>>62072
>>62073
I guess it got converted into a real thread lol

>>62062
I think the assumption was two big OC picks would make it interesting. Here's the problem: both were already being hyped as favorites even before the tournament began. There's no wildness to this match.

Are any of the hosts up? The fake thread's gone now.

>Punished Balls

>>62080
CBT

>>62076
It doesn't help that Eris's whole campaign is CHAOS, but she's been one of the biggest powerhouses this year and the apparent winner since quarter-finals. Someone on /co/ said it well that she's become more of a generic coombait character since there's not enough drama in the bracket for her to really be the chaotic pick. Part of the reason her campaign focues more on coom and Omni-Man RP in later rounds

>>62082
They basically embraced being Jack 2.0
Idk kind of sucks.

Wuya wins

>they are announcing the results in a vocaroo again after we told them to never do it again after King

>double elimination
It’s over.

>double elimination voted yes
How in the FUCK

>Farquaad gets to live since spin-off characters are separate
YES
>Double elimination
NO

>Double elimination voted yes
For God's sake where are these yes votes coming from.

>>62088
>>62089
We can vote on it again after Mr. /co/ ends. Still, I want NSA to directly show us the results.

Finally this trash is over

>>62091
I legit don't believe this and think with how NSA was acting he may have just forced this one through.

>>62097
Yep, there's no way in hell the majority wanted this, EVERYONE was negative about it in the threads when the idea was proprosed.

I didn't want double elim because these things already take a huge amount of energy out of me, so it's relieving in a way when my picks go down and I'm allowed to relax and observe the rest of the show. Now if my character loses normal bracket the suggestion is to campaign even harder to survive.

Rigged

>>62044
This post aged like milk.

Percentages? I haven’t listened to the vocaroo.

>>62091
>>62097
>>62098
This is what's making me think NSA is rigging lol

>>62101
It was all a falseflag btw.

which one of you nerds voted for Double Elimination?

Are anons really surprised Wuya won after all the "Eris is gonna win" posts? Falseflag or not, it’s proven that if you are overbearing with your predictions, people will just go the opposite way.

Will Mr. /co/ have email collecting?

>no turnout

>>62105
I didn't.
I JUST WANT TO SEE THE GRAPHS. WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY.

>>62107
Nope.

I didn’t see a single fucking soul say they liked the losers bracket what the fuck

>NSA ran away again
KWAB

WHERE IS THE TURNOUT MANSLEY

>>62105
I absolutely did not, how the HELL Did it pass?

>>62105
I believed it when /v/ voted for it because nobody but one guy bothered to elaborate and discuss what the whole idea entailed to begin, but this here just reeks of bullshit.

>>62092
You'll have to wait until tomorrow. Even in the email communications I had with him about getting the vote sheets to graph them for him he said I'd have to wait for monday because he's busy.
And because he's got to like, remove the emails from it and such.

Reminder NSA never posted the turnout of the King of /v/ semifinals. We only have the Psyanon vocaroo as proof.

What a mess

NSA is a total fucking dickcheese for thanos snapping nominations when we JUST made a bot SPECIFICALLY for NOMINATIONS

>he just combined "yes" and "let hosts choose" (evidently meaning just himself) and called it "yes"
LMAO

The original ms /co/ host came back

>>62122
I am so sick of this motherfuckers bullshit.

>>62118
Jack got rigged confirmed

>>62122
He did something similar in the /v/ tournaments last year with the 3 non-vidya rule.

>>62120
all in shit tier

>>62125
No, I really doubt that, but the way he made a post saying something along the lines of "wow this result is very awe-inspiring" while referring to Jack stomping AM was very bizarre, especially because he never comments on matches before they are over.

>another winner's getting overshadowed with meta drama

Option 1 and Blu are the real Ms. /co/ 2023

>Wuya's win immediately drowned out by the outrage over the double-elimination bracket

NSA*, I kneel.....

>>62135
Literally who?

He split the fucking votes on purpose, didn't be? If Maybe wasn't there then it still would have been iffy on the chance that the fourth option was still just going to get compiled into Yes.

>>62132

>>62120
1. Fang (yeah sorry I loved her and her campaign too much)
2. Monarch
3. Jenny (I wasn't there for the first Ms. /co/ so her cleanliness doesn't really hold weight to me, and I also wasn't a big MLAATR kid, but I recognize that she's pretty iconic in general)
4. Betty. She's like the epitome of "I guess that makes sense" but her win is kind of tainted by the fact she coasted by while everyone was too busy panicking over Johanna, Hilda & Muriel. She's also just not really exciting, and I think as the years go on she'll become one of the more forgotten winners.
5. Wuya. Call me a fag but she does absolutely nothing for me. I think I stopped watching Xiaolin Showdown before she got her body back and I liked Jack more.
6. Spinel, not because I hate her, SU or think she won only because of rigging, but because her win has permanently fucked up this tournament.

>>62135
Just like Tom's and the gay wedding

>>62138
the threads chaotic rn but I'll post what he said to me before he started driving home
"if most voted yes with stipulations. The answer is yes"
so maybe yes and let the hosts all got added together

>>62141
It’s such a shame because I really like Wuya as a winner. Wtf NSA.

I was gonna put this tourney barely 21 and 22 but this little stunt at the end might put it between them.

>>62142
So he abused statistical science, obfuscated the purpose of each answer without clarification in the question itself, and was a faggot

The question did say "hosts" did it not? Was there communication that the contents of the last answer meant to screw you and everyone else?

>>62141
The part that saddens me the most is that would mean if we remove the votes of NSA's manipulated poll, Wuya isn't even the winner anymore and it's all thanks to NSA forcing his shitty loser brackets down anyone's throats because he fucking felt like it. Fucking christ man.

>>62145
>So he abused statistical science, obfuscated the purpose of each answer without clarification in the question itself, and was a faggot"
Did exactly this last king of /v/ too

Boy the thread is really roasting NSA right now.

It’s funny in hindsight how much chaos the double elimination poll is bringing upon the current thread, yet when /v/ put it as a suggestion last year and it got voted in, most anons were just "ah okay, lol". Was it just obliviousness?

>>62123
I'd rather have him at this point, even after the Spinel shitshow

>>62150
>Was it just obliviousness?
seems like it

>less than 400 votes for a Ms /co/ finale

Oh god Mr will be even worse won’t it

>>62153
It doesn’t have the Emil thing fortunately

>>62153
No, because it doesn’t even have the email thing.

>>62150
When it was proposed for /v/, it wouldn't have replaced nominations.

>>62157
The double elimination system itself is a concern as well

>They didn't even show results, just said 2xLims were the popular vote via a vocaroo
There's no way NSA isn't just covering up the truth.

>>62158
That too, plus it wasn't even tested for /v/, just voted on, so we don't know how it would work in practice. I hope this double elimination shit doesn't apply to Mr. /co/ this year.

>that one anon redrew Fang's panel in the winner's collage
That was nice of them

Wait a minute, if Nightshift tried that double elimination bs, effectively killing the nominations, and put Mr. /co/ nominations in the finals thread, does that mean this lying, underhanded, sneaky two-timing weasel rat bastard tried to run Mr. /co/ with potential nominees getting gutted? Holy shit fuck this loser

>>62149
He deserves all of it.

it seems like in addition to forcing through the double brackets thing by adding options that aren't "no" and just counting them all as "yes "with stipulations"", he's decided to eliminate nominations without telling anyone, and put in some "who will you nominate in Mr. /co/" question WITHOUT actually telling people anywhere it's the only chance to nominate a character for Mr. /co/.

It's just insanity. He's crashing the tourneys with no survivors because he's a powertripping asshole. I can only hope he'll see reason and will bring the nominations threads back. Having to create a burner email is one thing, but getting rid of nominations is fucking insane. He's so shit at communicating it's incredible

>>62164
Thankfully according to balls and penis(that sound really awkward)anons, this is getting rejected by the time mr /co/ starts

NSA keeps trying to add bells and whistles to these tournaments and I think that's. Somewhat admirable. That he wants to try to make them better. But at the same time: please shut up.

Well, that was underwhelming.

>>62168
People are saying Raven vs Toph would've been more fun but I definitely think that's a the grass is greener scenario and there's a timeline where we got that and are bored out of our minds there too.

>>62169
It's possible, but their popularity and tournament history might've led to more engagement. I'm also talking about the afterparty and the threads in general.

>>62162
I don't even like Fang's win but the panel does look better

>>62169
Raven vs. Toph would have been completely dead threads and the afterparty would have an attitude of "at least we finally got it out of the way" with maybe two or three people actually celebrating

>>62174
Toph had plenty of vocal support and OC. She would've almost certainly stomped btw.

>>62175
Probably, Raven took ages to get some vocal supporters.

Alright I need context. What's with removing nominations? How the hell we will be able to get the characters to qualify now? Or am I missing something?

>>62175
>>62174
This only proves Toph vs Eris wouldve been the best case scenario

I jost woke up.
What did i miss, how did NSA fuck up the finals?

>>62179
It's nice that Fang doesn't have a supremely biased profile in that image now.

>>62177
NSA is a lying manipulative asshat who decided that removing nominations or moving them offsite, and changing things to a double bracket elimination system would be a great idea. He proposed this idea in a random thread at 3 AM, ( https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/139303848#p139307308 ), had lots of anons enthusiastically tell him they all hated the idea, decided this was support, and put it to the vote sneakily in the Ms. /co/ final round form, without telling anyone this was also being voted on. He also manipulated the vote by putting in the options "yes" "no" "maybe" and "let the hosts decide", and then proceeded to count everything except "no" as a "yes (with stipulations", and had Psyanon (old radio vocaroos) declare the "result", again without explaining it. The other hosts called him out in the threads for this, they disagreed and weren't asked so the "let the hostS decide" shouldn't be yes at all at this point and "maybe" also isn't yes. "No" got way more votes than "yes". So he lied and tried to manipulate the vote to make it look like people want the double brackets.

He also put the question "Who will you nominate in Mr. /co/" in the Ms. /co/ final round voting form, without any explanation for why this question was there or any mention about old style of nominations being axed. people are now suspecting that was the only chance to nominate characters for Mr. even though it wasn't explained clearly anywhere at all, because NSA's gonna NSA and communicating with people is not something he gives a shit about, he prefers to piss everyone off and force unwanted participation-harming changes without telling people what's going on

>coughs

When is Mr. /co/?

>>62184
October 6th at 7pm est

>>62185
Thank you.
