It's a yearly event where often, board tans or personifications of an entire board, get to interact, and it often spurs a great deal of content.

Depending on the pair match-ups, the content that might follow can be all sorts of things.

It's also a great way for boards to mesh and interact, so it's a bit of a social event as much as it's a prompt for content!

/g/ isn't a fun board, and no one cares about /g/.

>>57507150
They might be actually. A lot of threads on the Winter ball were held earlier though.

Let's hope I'm cross-linking right, or I'll feel really stupid...

I thought the winterball died like 2 years ago.

Anyways, is /c/ taken?

We will go to ball with whoever installs solus. No hand holding and we will bring our thinkpad so we can be productive. Here's a recent pic of us

>>57507303
It looks like they're taking... [s4s]? Which is weird, because I thought [s4s] was married to /int/... but whatever.

/mlp/ can fuck off, I'm guessing we'd suit /r9k/ but I dunno if they'd like us, I do love /pol/ though...
Trap /g/ with /pol/?

>>57507418
Fuck, /pol/'s with /o/ of all boards...

We're not sure what /pol/ is doing. /pol/ has been all over the damn place.
First they were asking /x/ because the will of 'kek' demanded it, then I hear rumors that they weren't... then I hear they offered /lgbt/ the chance to blow them, who don't seem thrilled by that, but somehow, are not discouraged...

Honestly... the last thing I heard from them, is that they're now taking /o/, who seems to have gotten a new cute look?

This image seems to be circulating.

What's /d/ up to these days?

>>57507385
That's not a surprise to me actually. I'd like /jp/ but I'm pretty sure they're taken.

>>57507098
oh great, the yearly whinefest about /g/ not following along with the retards

>>>/lgbt/

>>57507554
I think /tg/ asked /d/ to go with /qst/.

It seems like a shota prompt.

Everyone pussyfooting around the

FACT

that this board is forever paired with
/trash/

I don't see no dragon dildo unboxing on /lit/ thats for sure

/wsr/ is interested in us I think

>>57508075
>>/trash/
Isn't that just the 4chan archive?

About the only worthwile pairing is /cm/ since you're both raging twink fuckboys

>>57508345
>>>/trash/
Shit posts get forcibly moved there by mods

>>57507125
/g/-tan wouldn't go to the party
/g/-tan would stay at home compiling ebuilds

Is /qa/ invited?

>>57507125
> implying we are all antisocial fucklords who cannot into real world interaction and need to roleplay life.

GTFO you cringeworthy fuck.

I'm sure y'all could get /trash/ to crossplay tux.

We need a catchy celebrity couple name like /cock/ and /polo/. I propose /fa./

>>57508075
/trash/ isn't invited.

>>57507098
>>/mlp/ is currently available...

If we go with the /go/ pairing we could have fun.

[spoiler]/g/ has to ask permission from Elon Musk to take his daughter to the ball or someshit.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]/g/ and /o/ build the GNU/Car.[/spoiler]

/mlp/ should go with /qst/ or something.

My second choice is a bromance of /g/, /m/, and /r9k/.

The most daring option would be to steal /x/ with our superior tinfoil and conspiracies.

>>57514398
Pretty sure /o/ is going with /pol/, and /qst/ is with /d/.

>>57514416
So it's simple then. We go with /x/.

As a side note, we could also go with /vip/ and call the pairing "Walled Garden" or "The Cathedral and the Bazaar".

>>57514448
They're already going with /v/

We're just going to stand by the wall with /sci/ and breathe heavy while watching everyone else have fun.

No goddamnit, this is the year we stand up for ourselves. The future is decidedly cyberpunk, our time and the reality of the Sprawl and maybe Singularity are approaching rapidly. The future belongs to the /g/entooman.

We're gonna hack the Gibson and get the girl.

Is /fa/ going with anyone yet? Scrawny /fa/g/s that care too much about things nobody else cares about at all, a perfect match.

I thought they go with /cgl/ every year? The attempt was alright at least, Satan.

>>57508345
No, it's literally a trashcan. You can even post directly on it. I know because it's my other home board.

Well fuck don't you guys have any ideas?

>>57514520

We do that every year.

>>57507098
Let it snow!
Oh wait, I'm confusing memes again, aren't I?

>>57514520
Even /r9k/ has somebody this year.
It's not too late, /g/

>>57507180
Wtf? I wanna fuck /d/ now!

>>57514464
as a /vip/ resident I approve of this

>>57514520
only acceptable /g/-tier answer

also just not going and staying at home

>>57517206
I don't think you guys have a consensus yet, unfortunately.

>>57508622
That explains why it reminds me so much of /b/

You know, /g/ not being able to get it together every single winter ball is a disappointment. Bumping this one more time, pick a board:

http://poal.me/41utbz

>>57521601
Once again, fuck off with your cringy avatarfaggotry and role playing

/g/ is staying at home.

>>57521830
>avatarfaggotry
Wow, so posting art is avatarfagging? You better enlighten all of /i/ and /ic/, you fucking retard.

>>57521601
I vote option 6: Whatever board this other faggot hates.

>>57521948
avatarfagging = using a virtual avatar to try and pretend interact with other virtual avatars

like you are doing with your stupid “it would meme a lot to me if I could take you to prom?!”-tier bullshit

So no ideas yet?

>>57523860
The question has already been answered

/g/ is staying at home compiling kernels

>>57523917
A shame. You could have turned some heads by showing up.

Well... have fun then with whatever you do decide to do.
