ANNOUNCEMENT

During the Friendship Tests 4 stream, we mentioned that we applied to do a cup panel at BABS this year, but that we weren't accepted. Well, after the stream at 11:11 PM Sunday (checked), out of fucking nowhere, the panel was confirmed. /clop/ presents: I Just Don't Know What Went Wrong: /mlp/ and the 4ch*n C*p

We (probably) will be in the Solar Hall, Friday, 6:45-7:45. ScarfAnon will host a conversation with current manager Darkbow alongside retired managers Test Pony, NBD, ShadowTester, and myself. We'll also be doing a live reading of the as-yet unfinished mini documentary, "/mlp/: The Legend of Evermeme," a Q&A, and a round of trivia questions with prizes including /mlp/ team pins, an autographed /mlp/ scarf, and an autographed Safest Hooves jersey.

If you've ever wanted to scream at somebody for running counter instead of possession or to share your thoughts on laangbaal, this is your chance. We hope to see you there!

Calm down boyo, and apply cream for that butthurt. She didn't take up the whole season, just the S6 premiere, one episode, and the finale. It's funny because the other episodes don't even acknowledge she is there, like the guys night episode. You "poochiehaters" usually get a break from glimmer, and besides, you have season 7 to look forward to. She might just be sent away... Or she's going to stick around... Or she's going to become an alicorn. But really anon, you know you can leave the ride like the other fags that decided to hit the brakes early. you also cannot say that "everyone" or "most people" dislike her, as that is not true. Seen the polls on EQD lately? A vast majority want more of her. Even if all of /mlp/ voted against glimmer, it would be an insignificant percentage that cannot even come close to trumping all the yes-fags, so you guys are fucked, and glimmy is here to stay. Get over it.

The fact that someone thought this was a good idea almost makes me want to cringe. We might as well just let EqD advertise the streams again, because it's the same crowd. If you wanted to circlejerk so badly, you should've just made a streamed skype call or something. I don't know on what level of hyopcrisy do you have to be, as someone who's so autistic about keeping this shit in /mlp/ and whinging about muh board culture and muh generals all the time and then literally going to outsiders to advertise it. Delete this thread, make one on r/mlp instead and hang yourself with your scarf.

Bringing 4chan outside of 4chan has never done any good, unless you really like spaghetti. And I find it really funny that someone who can spend an hour on stream crying about nu4chan then goes, contributes to it becoming worse and feels like he has something to be proud of.

If you want to ask, ask. Stop treating a bunch of autists playing divegrass like they're some hard to reach celebrities. They're not, and if they act like ones, then it's time to tell them to fuck off.
See, that's what I don't get. This event isn't catered to /mlp/ and except for the lucky few that go to Babs anyway, they won't be there. Instead you'll have EqD, reddit, faggots from horse news, casuals who only know about 4cc from r/4chan and that one /mlp/ vs /pol/ match that has hundreds of thousands of views. You're not doing it for /mlp/, because you clearly don't have them in mind. Instead you're just circlejerking by reading the history of your team to mostly a bunch of clueless bronies.

there's always a difference between asking things on an imageboard, in a livechat and in irl discussion. They're not hard to reach from my experience, it's just that they're so many anecdotes to be told about these past years that I feel it'd be more entertaining to discuss it live (most of the time, general questions triggers anecdotes irl, not on an image board sadly)
They've also admittedly brought a lot of art and entertainment (with all the labor that it's required) so I think it's worth a glance even for the most clueless people.
It's just another side of the "fandom" anyway

Agreed, but a Q&A on a panel in front of people and a Q&A on a twitch stream would work the same if what you want is anecdotes triggered from questions. And hey, everyone could tune in for that.
In the end, both of it is just attention whoring, only the stream would at least be aimed at the right people instead of shilling to the outsiders.

There was no shit show. The commissioner held a public town hall and a bunch of people participated to share their opinions in a civil way. I have nothing against weebs streaming JRPGs, I just don't think it belongs on the main channel because the main channel ought (in my subjective and meaningless opinion) to be used for 4chan-related and Cup-related content and random people streaming random games has nothing to do with either. A reasonable person could absolutely disagree with me, but surely even then they could at least understand that point of view. It's also worth mentioning that it's not something I'd ever consider worth a crusade. I went to the town hall because Lear asked people to.
>And then theres the fact that they act like we shouldn't host the Friendship test on the Main channel (if we were on twitch) to not bother people with pony, when it fact, we SHOULD because its our right as pes invitational,
This kind of makes me think you are false flagging to make /mlp/ look retarded, because nobody has a *right* to anything re: the main cup channel. Nor is the FT an invitational, since nobody is invited. We choose not to pursue airing it on the main channel because it doesn't have a broad appeal to the larger cup audience. It's an /mlp/-specific event filled with horse teams. We could surely pull in more viewers using the main channel, but that has never been a motivating factor (keep this in mind with respect to the attention whoring accusations).

I can't really answer this, because you haven't given any specific examples. We had Boris commentate on FT3 and many of the primary organizers and contributors to the cup are friendly with /mlp/ staff, so I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that "the people that matter" hate us.

>>29844660
Hi /4ccg/.

See prior reply. I feel comfy belongs on a separate channel, except under specific circumstances, because it isn't related to either 4chan or the Cup, and the main channel should be about the 4CC primarily and 4chan stuff and cup-related stuff secondarily. That's why it was created. I agree with f4r's position 100%, so I defer to him since he articulated that argument the best. Again, it's not an opinion that I consider important, so I only shared it when asked during a town hall hosted specifically for sharing opinions about it.

We aren't forcing the panel to be live streamed on the main channel, so I think you're grasping at straws to suggest a connection. Talking about the cup during a cup-related event is exactly the sort of thing I support and the opposite of what most of the comfy consists of. I could see teams like /tg/, /cgl/ (rip), /co/, /a/, and other teams hosting similar panels if they were so motivated. It could be a lot of fun.

We're not intruding on anybody. It can only bother you if you go out of your way to concern yourself with it. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts, though.
>>
>>29845550
>>29845594

The one argument I clearly remember (although I don't have the logs)that cause this post is that people used the channel for attention. You (or BGP, assuming you're PMB) kept saying that people would use the channel to get attention, and as you say, calling them weeb.

And for me, THIS right here is using 4chan for attention. This is all the /mlp/ managers literally hosting a panel at a convention. And since you're going to use it EXPLAIN the cup, you're not doing it to reach us, you're trying to reach the normies, the non 4channers, aka: the people we DON'T want around, that the rest of the spectators accuse us.

Remember how we collectively yelled at Seth to remove his article? Remember how we hate HN now for how they took it over their heads? You're doing the exact, same, thing.
>>
>>29845623
>that the rest of the spectators accuse us of bringing to the cup* holy fuck I'm tired.

The point is: This is bringing way too much attention to the cup to a crowd that don't need it. And the fact that you think there's nothing wrong if it show how out of touch you are with this board's fanbase.
>>
>>29845623
Yes, a meetup is fine, in fact, you're already doing a meetup right now, but theres something extra about doing a panel that was absolutely not needed. You could've easily talked about the cup in the usual /4chan/ room, and I don't see why we need to advertise the cup more.

>The one argument I clearly remember (although I don't have the logs)that cause this post is that people used the channel for attention. You (or BGP, assuming you're PMB) kept saying that people would use the channel to get attention, and as you say, calling them weeb.
I can't really argue with your memory, but I do have a full transcript of my contributions because I wrote them in advance and copy/pasted them as they became relevant. Lear posted the questions that would be asked a week or so prior to the town hall, so being an autist I came prepared. My argument was based in propriety of use, as summarized above. That said, I think it would be naive to suggest nobody would ever use something like open access to hosting on the main channel to seek attention, when people have gotten involved in the cup for exactly that reason. I could name some, but the specific examples aren't important to this discussion and you should be able to think of some yourself. If I were asked, I would say /merit/ should discourage that type of behavior rather than enable it, and I feel 24/7/365 hosting of comfy enables that behavior. It's the least important point in a portfolio of unimportant points. I emphasize, again, that this isn't something I'm stuck on.
>And for me, THIS right here is using 4chan for attention. This is all the /mlp/ managers literally hosting a panel at a convention.
By this logic, the entire cup is for attention, since it's cup people hosting a tournament on the internet with 4chan in the name. The panel is intended for fans, but much like the cup itself, we can't control who attends.

Offering my 2 cents here, since I'm being mentioned despite not being involved in any of this (I wouldn't be caught dead at a MLP convention).

My stance on comfy is that streaming on the main channel should be left to streamers competent at entertaining people. Several people of the comfy cabal who recently started streaming comfy were absolutely terrible at it. On top of that, comfy became scheduled, so it felt like the occasional fun time with Boris, Sou, or Germanbro turned into a nonstop parade of mouth breathers squatting the channel with bad content while the same ten or so people (most of which were comfy streamers as well) circlejerked in chat, unrelated to what was going on. I personally don't care about what people stream, as long as they do it well and make it entertaining.

The Friendship Tests aren't really an invitational. They're the managers testing their ideas against each other, which turned into an organized stream event because /mlp/ was interested in watching this process. No other boards streams their tests on the main channel, and I'm not sure why we should.

Regarding the panel at BABS con, the way I understood it it was organized for /mlp/ posters who go there. I have no idea why people think 'normies' would be interested in the panel, or why it would bring Equestria Daily and non-/mlp/ fags to the cup. If PMB thinks he can do something fun for the board at a pony event together with a couple of other (ex-)managers he occasionally meets up with, then he has my support.
>>
>>29845623
>And since you're going to use it EXPLAIN the cup, you're not doing it to reach us, you're trying to reach the normies, the non 4channers, aka: the people we DON'T want around, that the rest of the spectators accuse us.
This is a false assumption you are making. I had a friend proofread the doc script and we argued pretty intensely over it because he criticized the fact that it made no effort whatsoever to explain what the cup was. It assumed an audience already familiar with the ins and outs and general history of the cup, which he felt was a problem because "casual fans will be in the audience and they won't have the knowledge you are assuming they will have." I specifically didn't want to host an introductory panel for the uninitiated (and we are initiated, aren't we, Bruce?), so it's catered to people who are actually already fans and follow the cup. That approach may alienate randoms, but I don't share my friend's concern over that.

Please do not be so hasty in your assumptions.
>Remember how we collectively yelled at Seth to remove his article? Remember how we hate HN now for how they took it over their heads? You're doing the exact, same, thing.
EqD has a much, much wider audience than our convention room will have seats. Unlike EqD, our panel is specifically aimed at cup fans, not MLP fans generally speaking. I do not feel you're making an appuls to appuls comparison, but I'm glad you raised the concern so it could be addressed.
>>
>>29845669
>By this logic, the entire cup is for attention, since it's cup people hosting a tournament on the internet with 4chan in the name.

This argument is so retarded I'm actually having trouble arguing against it.

Most people that are involved in the cup know it should be kept only to 4chan. Attempts to spread it to other sources have been met with disdain (The KYM and Tv Tropes articles, the Breitbart story, the EqD article). We have to use an external service to stream the games, but otherwise most team fans and managers only try to get people from their board involve. You don't see the /a/ managers for example going to Gaia to make threads there.

>The panel is intended for fans, but much like the cup itself, we can't control who attends.
You can very easily control who attends the cup, by not spreading it beyond the site making shit like this panel.
>>
>>29845679
>No other boards streams their tests on the main channel, and I'm not sure why we should.
Technically /vg/ does.
>>29845691
This makes more sense, but it clearly wasn't what transpired in the OP, the whole "/clop/ present you /mlp/ the panel!" and the whole "documentary" thing REALLY screams attention whoring.

I do think, as someone said before, that a meetup was enough, and in the end, this all seems like a glorified meetup (and I'm very tired), so I'll back off of this, but please don't make that a regular thing and don't sperg out.

>Implying babscon2018 will be a thing.
>>
>>29845691
Why even make a panel, then? If you just wanted to hang out, you could've just said where we can find you in the Babscon thread, or even make an extra one for all your snowflake needs. Instead of telling only the people interested, you're advertising the /mlp/ event to a broad audience. The last thing I want is some faggot taking a liking to the cup and coming here to shit up the threads. Like it's not enough that the scarf is now being worn by people who have no fucking idea what it's about.
>>
>>29845715
>You can very easily control who attends the cup, by not spreading it beyond the site making shit like this panel.
This is true, can't you just reserve the room WITHOUT making it a panel? the moment you have something on that Babscon leaflet you ARE going to bring attention to it, 100% people will be curious, and its normal to, and you can't distinguish them.

>>29845669
>By this logic, the entire cup is for attention
That is your counter argument? Of course there's some attention required to make the cup itself, and organize everything, but this has nothing to do with the production or quality of the cup whatsoever, this is still extra attention whoring that wasn't needed at all.
>>
Literally what is the point? Worst it can do is cause an influx of bronies, newfags, and normies. Best it does is create an awkward gathering of autists talking about internet memes in person, which is cringy and autistic. Anonymity is part of the fun in the cup and 4chan, meetups are cancer.

????????
>>
>>29846132
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10-KQjwY_Ro
>>
>>29846155
A meet-and-greet is at least less attention whoring, since it's basically just saying to /mlp/ "hey guys, come hang out with us", and not "Dear attendants of Babscon, come see our presentation on this 4chan event you have probably heard of on HN or reddit and win cool prizes while you're there!"
A meet-and-greet minimizes collateral damage. If you want to make a presentation about the /mlp/ team for /mlp/ fans, then make it for /mlp/ fans, not for Babscon. Keep 4chan on 4chan, don't advertise your circlejerk to outsiders.

I swear I am trying to stop eating glue and sniffing paint thinner, but it just feels so good.
My problem isn't really what is more or less attentionwhorey since both of those things are, my problem is that this is catering to the wrong crowd.
How are you gonna make the panel about the team, anyway, just reading off of the wikipage? Reminiscing old goals and chokes? You have five managers there and you're just gonna be like "Oh remember that game we won in 2014?" I was assuming it would still be filled with personal anecdotes to, you know, make it interesting and/or funny.

>>29846271
There's still plenty of people who only have a vague sense about the cup without really caring about it because the news get around, and those are people who do not go on 4chan. Yes, people who have no idea what the 4cc is probably won't go to see the panel, but there are still plenty who do know without actually being from /mlp/, which you can actually even tell in the cup threads. You're bringing those people in, and they're not wanted. If it was just something organized here, by /mlp/ for /mlp/ so to say, it would still be attentionwhorey, but at least it could not hurt the board in any way.

I still remember a time when The Wanderer and Rarifag got shitted on for doing the same circlejerking shit with the /mlp/ league (mind you all, with several other cup managers involved), and now it's all okay with shilling circlejerkers through a brony convention.

>>
>>29846466
Wanderer was an idiot, but he did nothing wrong by proposing the /mlp/ league just as long as he had actual people willing to work on it that wasn't just himself. The real problem was the Fallout general coordinating with Rarifag to deliberately disrupt cup threads so that they would get banned off /mlp/ just because /foe/ couldn't compete in VGL.

Not the origianl guy but theres this like that sortof fits:
>mrt 05 18:27:37 <BGP> turning the 4CC into a personality parade is not going to do wonders for the tolerance 4chan mods have for the cup

Replace 4chan mods by "the rest of the 4cc community" and the cup with /mlp/., and this fits this situation pretty well.

Of course, the reaction people instantly have is "But it's just 4ccg who cares right" which is pretty much the response that line got.
Point is, as much as they're allowed to have that panel, it's still an extra mile that wasn't needed that they got out of privilege of their relationship with the con staffing, and the criticism of attention whoring on both this thread and the /vg/ thread is deserved.
>>
>>29847741
What makes you think they have a relationship with the con staff? Proofs?

And I disagree that it fits the situation. BGP was talking specifically about the cup getting banned on 4chan by using 4chan to drive users to unrelated content on a different website, which if you aren't aware is exactly why "advertising" streams like the cup got banned from 4chan in the first place. His argument was "if you use 4chan as the launching pad for something that doesn't have to do with 4chan (comfy), then you run the risk of the ban hammer just like happened in the past under the same circumstances." You can't just swap out words and pretend to make the same point. "The rest of the 4cc community" is in no position to ban the cup from 4chan and banning /mlp/ from the cup because some ex-managers are doing a live cup event would be a serious ass pull.

There's absolutely some relationship with Horse News staff (which is in cahoots with the /mlp/ management) and Babscon, 4chan had access to a VIP room the previous year with alcohol.
>banning /mlp/ from the cup because some ex-managers are doing a live cup event would be a serious ass pull.
It's not, but it's not aiding our cause at all, do you think they asked Lear about his opinion on this? Do you think he'll like it, really?

On one side they act like we should be the same, I remember for example how they were against rival goalhorn because they didn't want to provoque animosity, and on the other side they make shit like this which is clearly another mark on the autistic ladder for us and cause us to be the center of the discussion yet again. I get some mixed signals from this.

Asking "did they ask Lear" is like asking "how does Lear feel about the roster?" The commissioner makes sure the cup runs smoothly. He doesn't override how teams are managed, provided they are managed within the rules. There is no rule against panels.

Bent isn't a BABSCon organizer, so I'm not sure why you think he matters in this context. And I wish I had connections, but I don't. I applied for the panel back in October and my follow up emails to the con were ignored for months, in fact. The con is in a few days and we only got our panel approved in the end after (I assume) somebody cancelled. We definitely didn't receive preferential treatment and none of us had an inside track. I don't know where this meme came from, but it's worth nipping in the bud.

You should ask /4ccg/ about it, there's loads of shit he said that barely ever reaches this place. Obviously a lot of it is exaggerated, but he does say some dumb stuff.

Did Tony get that from the contact he allegedly once had with Konami? Or is this from someone entirely different?

You had a variety of threads to post in, you decided to come into this one and have a "you're wrong sweetie ;)" attitude, yet you question why we hate you.
If you don't like the 4CC or conventions then please go away.

>>29851893
The asterisk that >>29851787 added onto the "Two Stars" is trying to imply that at least one of the stars wasn't justly earned. This is fake news, Lear cleared all situations and stated that both our stars are legitimate like /fit/ and unlike /sp/.
