Winter Ball Discussion Thread

Guys, I feel bad. I think we should take /po/ out of pity.

I think we should accept /his/. They made a move on us and asked us before anyone else. If /vp/ truly valued us then they would have asked as well. We should take the one that cares about us and doesn't take us for granted, let's go with /his/.

>>50201397
It's not out of pity anon. We asked them last year and they told us to fuck off.

>>50201444
Good points however I do think we should give /vp/ a little bit more time. Their board is in a mixture of complete hype and disappointment because of the new game coming out and the board traffic is much faster than normal, making it hard to keep a Winter Ball thread alive.

>>50201412
What is "tan?" And why don't you like balls?

>>50201397
While /po/ is a good choice, we got shot down pretty hard last year because of their Nazi mod. I doubt it would work a second time, but Teej always likes a challenge.

There was a lot of good oc when we ended up going with /vp/. /vp/- tans are super cute.

/his/ has asked us also, so that's an option. Although, I'm not familiar with their tan, so i dunno.

Nothing will be solidified until polls go up anyway.

>>50201541
One thing to note is that /x/, while we share a good deal of history with them, is out of the question. There's always a massive brawl between 3-4 boards over who gets to take them and we should stay as far away from that as possible.

>>50201602
True. /x/ is basically a cum- drenched husk anyway. I'd rather not even get involved. Also, claimed by /pol/ this year from what I understand.

>>50201640

I wouldn't say claimed, they've having a bit of a fit in /x/. Still agree that we shouldn't go near them, not with better dates around still.

so we are going with /his/ then?

>>50201640
>>50201655
I would be OK with doing what we did last year. /x/ was tired of /pol/ sockpuppeting their polls.and such so they tagged along with us and the twins as a tagalong. I felt it worked out fine and let /x/ have a little bit of their former life come back. No romantic stuff, just tagging along without a date to have some fun and get away from /pol/. If they come to us again with the same offer I say we accept.

>>50201681
Nothing is confirmed until the polls are made but they are a candidate.

If you guys are willing to accept magical realm, /trash/ is always willing to go

No means no.
No is always no.
If you hear no it means a thousand times no.
No plus no equals no.
All nos lead to no no no.

Please keep this stuff in /qa/.
It's not traditional games, and frankly, it's embarassing how awful it is.

So let's list the best possible choices pre-poll creation.

>Take /vp/ again like we have done the last two years.
>Take up /his/ on their offer
>Try our luck at /d/ now that some time has passed and they actually like us again
>Go as bros with /co/ if for some ungodly reason they don't ask /ck/

>>50201359
What about /trash/ ?
I thought we had a thing for non-humans

What about /qst/? :^)

>>50203412
Do they have a -tan already?

>>50202051
It's a traditional roleplay that 4chan has done for years. I think that's good enough.

I'm a newfag. What the fuck is Winterball?

>>50203522
Once a year board-shipping thing.
We went with /vp/ last year, /his/ asked us out this year.

We could still go for /trash/, kinda waiting for polls

>>50202051
you are correct, it is embarrassingly awful
but that doesn't stop it being either traditional or a game

>>50203600
Stop trying to make /trash/ happen.

It won't.

Giga-Puddi and then /b/ invaded and never left.

Our Waifu is dead.

>>50203644
She died, and then like 5 different dudes fucked the corpse. Now 1 guy from /pol/ is obsessed with her.

>>50203655
ah well, /b/ happens

>>50203412
I'm pretty sure we shouldn't go to the ball with our daughter, senpai

>>50203729
but who would go with /qst/ if not us?

>>50203759
I think they like /a/ but I'm not 100% positive on that.

>>50203759
/vp/?

>>50203759
I believe /qst/ is taking /cm/ because of /qst/-tan quest.

On a different note /vp/ is most likely going to ask us once their poll is done. Last I heard we were 80% of their poll.

>>50203759
Questfags can stay with /trash/

>>50201359

/vp/ is always a back-up option if we can't net anyone else.

>>50203791
/a/ will probably go with /v/, if one of them can stop being tsun for the other for ten seconds.

Didn't we go with /s/ one year?

When I get home from work I'll put together the preliminary poll for everyone to vote if no one makes one before that.
If /vp/ does indeed ask us though I feel we should accept. They were great fun the past few years and they turn 17 in a week so lots of cute birthday art.

>>50201359
I'd like to consider /vr/ out of their love of a lot of CRPGs that are D&D related. We both love our Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment,etc.

And possibly /m/ because of Battle Tech, 40k,etc.

>>50203831
Doesn't /m/ almost always go with /toy/?

And while i fucking love /vr/, I think he's better as an eternal bro in the same vein as /co/. Definitely a candidate to consider if /vp/ doesn't want us though.

>>50203814
/s/ is a good mix of hot and desperate. I'd at least consider it.

Take /trash/. The possum needs a dicking.

>>50203876
Fuck off. No one wants to take your meme board.

>>50202337
>not going with /k/

>>50203922
/k/ is happily married to /an/ you homewrecker. They even have a kid in /out/. Not gonna happen.

>>50200586
/his/ asked us, so I don't think we should turn them down.

>>50201397
we tried last year they auctually rejected us before we even asked them

>>50203976
This!!!

>>50203976
This anon >>50203823 is going to make a poll so we can decide who we take. Once it's made than the votes will decide.

We can't just turn down /vp/, they want to go with us from the looks of it.

>>50201444
/vp/ is a bit of a mess right now and most threads for the ball get archived within about 20 minutes because of the influx of people asking about games and leaks. We finally got a thread up now and are trying to get votes going, but we'll see how well it goes. The people who care about the winter ball just aren't able to see any info on it.

>>50203976
Could be fun.

>>50204042
According to a /vp/oreon friend of mine, apparently 83% of the votes in their poll were to /tg/ when he did his.

>>50203886
Well then, I'm proud of our child. I feel we should visit them more often.

>>50204071
He's a good kid. I've heard /d/'s kid has also taken quite the shine to him. Our little man is becoming quite the Casanova.

Fukken /trash/ is open to us we should hook up, we could be a bit dirty this ball...

>>50204149
/trash/ fuck off. No means no.

>>50204042
new generation next week, so they get a birthday.

>>50203976
I'm pretty down for /his/

>>50204042
So, a poll just went up in /his/. Votes are slow as only /his/ can be, but it at least sounds like they're thinking either /lit/ or... both us and /vp/?

>>50204257
Thats an interesting development I was not expecting. I'm not sure how /vp/ will feel about it but it definitely seems like it could be an option.

Ok, sounds like it's either /vp/ or /his/. I say /vp/, because going with /his/ would feel a little creepy, and /vp/ seems to have its heart in the right place. We should keep an eye on /qst/ though. Don't want our child to get into too much trouble. Unless that results in them deciding to stop being a blue board, and causing a return of Papa-N and Heretical Love Quest

Alright guys, poll anon here back from work. Have we reached a consensus or are we still throwing around hypotheticals? Should I make one with all the boards or just the few we are discussing?

>>50204360
poll whats being brought up.
/his/, /trash/, /vp/, and throw in a couple randos for funsies

>>50204378
>>50204360
Yeah. If /toy/ and some of the other boards don't have any plans, toss them into the mix. I wouldn't mind seeing an option with on of the sexier boards, but they'd have to suit our tastes. /d/ is currently deliberating between us and /mlp/, so that's also a possibility.

>>50204378
>>50204430
Alright I'm thinking up some security questions. I'm not too concerned with sockpuppeting but it doesn't hurt to be safe. They'll be easy enough that any fa/tg/uy should be able to solve them no problem.

>>50204430
/d/ here, /mlp/ is a blight not even we will accept.

As far as we are concerned, we and /tg/ want elves, but /mlp/ wants sugarshit ponies.

>>50203644

/x/ never got better after /b/ was done with them.

>>50201359
>/his/ has already extended an invitation to us.
Then, shouldn't we go with them? Why would we say no to /his/?

>>50203644
We moved on years ago, and she moved on before we did.

/his/ is a tranny?

>>50204338
>implying you don't want the big stinky herodotus cock

>>50204360
I haven't seen anyone seriously saying we shouldn't accept /his/'s offer.

Alright guys, I think I did this right. Haven't made a poll on here before so if you catch a fuck-up than tell me.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScViI04GQr15RMqGuh7EglmGc61Q1yCWzVI2wePL7O11ztQJQ/viewform

>>50204430
>>50204478

>/d/ is deliberating

I'm why not take both?

I would find it very amusing if /his/ /d/ and /tg/ end up becomming then nucleus of a massive date blob and following that a Roman Orgy.

>>50204687
We can't leave /vp/ out of that.

>>50204679

What kind of security question is this?

It's not much of a meme, it's just celebrity trivia.

I could understand a Matt Ward or Guygax question but this is not out there.
I've been browsing /tg/ since March 2013 and have no ide a what the answer to this security question is.

>>50204703
Ah, sorry. I thought it was something everyone could figure out. I believe you got it right anon but if you think it could be better then I'll think up a new one.

>>50204703
Man I only knew one for sure, the other two I got with good deduction.

>>50204725

>I believe you got it right anon but if you think it could be better then I'll think up a new one.

I haven't answered it yet. I'm up trying to search for the answer because I don't want to guess.

>>50204725
The first one is pretty out there but I could catch the other two at least.

>>50204744
>>50204748
Hmm. Well if that is the case I better change it then.

>>50204740
>>50204748
Is still hung up on the first question like
>>50204744

>>50204755
Alright I changed it but I have no idea if it will carry over into already open polls. Is the new one any better?

>>50204755
Think about it this way. One is a joke answer, one involves someone that is part of an infamous scandal therefore the last one must be true.

>>50204769
Oh, too late.

>>50204819
Would you say the new question is more appropriate?

Ok so,.the whole winter ball thing is and always has been cancer

But I think /his/ is a good fit for us, since we always tend to encroach on their shit with our threads.

/K/ is the other good choice.

>>50204840
Yeah. It's certainly more board culture specific.

/pol/ and /x/ just won a presidential election together so they're a shoe in for one another. Let them have everyone's sloppy seconds. RIP /x/

>>50204754

Now it jumps from the filter questions to the "thank you for voting" page.

>>50204870
well it was kind of impressive

i mean, they did it.

>>50201359
By the power invested in me as a forever GM, a long time wargame player, and even a larper at certain occasions, I hereby do declare my intent to vote for /his/ as a true adventurer never turns down an offer.

>>50204840

Very good :)
It is more board culture specific and the "now I can't vote" problem for me turned out to be me fat fingering the answer and browser movement buttons on my phone.

>>50204885
Thanks for catching that. It should be fixed. I fucked up on one of the answers and it moved to the wrong page.

>>50204894

I'm voting for the orgy option because it's what /his/ and /d/ would want.

Plus a proper adventuring party should have more than 2 members.

>>50204894
Also most of our interesting threads involve /history/ in some fashion

While cute in some circumstances, not in this one. Besides, /qst/ is going with either /cm/ or /d/'s kid.

>>50205114
Maybe see if /d/ wants to go with /x/? It gets /pol/ and /mlp/ out of their hair and I think they'd get along. The alternative is an already semi-awkward 4 person date group spiraling out of control because /tg/ can't disappoint anyone by saying no. We don't have to date all of the boards, we can just have them in our party at the ball.

As it looks right now I say that the group option would make the most people happy, as the names mentioned in the group options all include both /his/ and /vp/. /his/ were the ones that suggested it so we know they're on board 100%. /vp/ wants to talk to /his/ about it a bit but I'm pretty sure they will be down with it.

there were three of us, the twink /vp/ twin is good at singing, we have bard levels and the girl is good at taking direction if nothing else.

Pretty sure it was related to being a bard and dressing up in matching outfits.

Well see early in this thread we assumed that /x/ and /pol/ were a lock for eachother.

but now /pol/ is schizophrenic on /x/ and /x/ belies that /pol/ doesn't respect them, so now they are looking at joining the party.

I think we should let them in if the other members are good with it.

Well, maybe if he wasn't a dick to the person he asked out, /x/ wouldn't want to hang out with the best winter ball group ever.

So wait, for the Winter Ball it's us, /vp/, /his/, /x/, and /d/? Are we gonna go on a spooky pokemon world with historical references and ERP?

That's because of your relation to /v/, that's all

Oh, yeah I've been here longer than the winter ball and I have no idea what that should be. I would guess Wil Wheaton since he's a tool.

>>50206757
It's more like the friend route though.

We're playing pure fantasy made for people to pretend to be socially competent and we still end up just going with a group of friends instead of an actual date.

>>50208101
What about that year when we went with /d/, /s/, and /x/ and it ended up in a tentacle orgy?

>>50208180
They weren't our harem.

We were part of /d/'s harem.

>>50208180
Group of friends with benefits.

>>50207123
Herodotus will be there character.

>>50201444
I agree
Let's go with /his/
We have a lot in common and they use to be here with us.

>>50206747
/his/ is not really on board with /k/. If anything, the polls sat /tg/ and maybe /vp/ but I think /lit/ has a following as well. Problem is, /lit/ might be taken. And /pol/ is a non-issue. /his/ hates /pol/

Alright everyone the final results for the preliminary polls are in!

31% /vp/
31% /his/
13.8% Group of 2 or more
6.9% /d/
6.9% Other
3.4% /vr/
1.3% /x/.

After a VERY close battle it seems that the two forerunners, /vp/ and /his/ are tied!
However I have not been able to cast my vote due to making the poll and I am voting for /vp/ breaking the tie in their favor.

Here is what I propose. /vp/ is our official date. No matter how many people we drag along with us, /vp/ gets the final dance, late night kiss, ect. /his/ is guaranteed to come along for the ride. Whether or not we have the others come with us is up to you guys.

Ursaring - Name: Sir Bearington - Wears a top hat and monocle
Crobat - Name: Screech - First pokemon. Bred for him by Vanille

The last three tend to change between the artist/writefag but those 3 are consistent.

10+number of generations of pokemon. Since the new games are coming out soon, they will "age".

>>50209860
/vp/ twins upped their age around Gen 5 which had teenage protags instead of kids.

Basically they're going on their age as being 10+ current Gen now.

This was /vp/'s idea because they wanted to do lewd things like handholding.

the Vidya family are canon manlets anyway.

Hey, guys. Used to be a writefag for /tg/ for the last winter ball. What's the plan so far?

>>50209928
We are going with /vp/ and /his/ this year for sure, with /vp/ barely eking out the title of "date". /x/ and /d/ may join us to become a massive harem/adventuring party/huge roman orgy.

>>50209961
That's the usual. So we've got /his/ and /vp/ as double-dates, this year? No drama between any of the boards?

Also, here's some of the collected work from last year. http://pastebin.com/dQLT2KXF. Only some of it is mine.

>>50209961
>>50209972
I liked the idea of us and /his/ each taking a twin. Are /vp/ on board with that or was that purely our idea?

>>50209961
On the subject of /vp/, they were talking about asking us to the ball this year round. Unfortunately their board is moving way too fast to have a successful Winter Ball thread because of the influx of normies asking about the new games and leaks. We'll have to wait until closer to nighttime hours to get any responses.

>>50209972
Pretty much. There's been some /pol/ drama as per usual but its been a fairly quiet year so far. The biggest thing I can think of is /trash/ trying to get everyone to take them to the ball and getting rejected by nearly every board.

>>50209988
It was originally /his/ idea but /vp/ seemed ok with the idea when their thread was up, though they'd like to talk to someone from /his/ about it.

>>50204938

Fuck off randy!

>>50210009
I'm gonna need some images of /his/-tan, then. Did Vanille and Viol change at all? Also, are we still mad about last year and Tiji? I happened to like Tiji's design.

>>50210044
/his/-tan is Herodotus. just google him.

They have been talking about doing a revision of Viol and Vanille because of their birthday with Vanille filling out some more and growing taller and Viol simply getting a new hat.

Not that I'm aware of. Everyone seems to be fine with Teej's current design.

>>50210084
>Herodotus
I just got done watching that anime about the singing statues. Now I want to write their -tan as a living bust.

Any art or stories happen so far?

>>50210105
Not yet. Winter ball discussion just started yesterday. Still plenty of time anon.

>>50210084
>>50210105
/his/ has two -tans, Herodotus and a loli who spouts /pol/-influenced misinformation

>>50210157

>>50210242
Are we going with him as a romantic thing or is it a friendly outing?

>>50210242
I don't see why the loli can't go with Viol and Herodotus is there to make sure she doesn't fill his mind with bullshit.

>>50210277

>>50210413

>>50210364
Just like straight smut, but use the phrase "feminine penis" at least once and the word "boipucci" at least twice in each paragraph.

The twins have a birthday this coming week right? Does that mean they're old enough for lewds

>>50210812
You're never too young for lewd.

The /tg/-tan is easily the worst out of the lot.

He was originally a boring guy made as an afterthought by a /co/ drawfag and pressed on us (with people arguing that /tg/ should look like the generic 4chan demographic for some reason while ignoring that's hardly the case with the other boards), and now holding onto a bunch of sacred cows while trying to make him interesting has made him now into a derpy creepy guy.

I actually really liked the female /tg/-tan that was being developed last year, before the winterball thing was shut down.

>>50211172
The winter ball was not shut down. Female /tg/ was shut down because people thought it was a fetish thing.

>>50210812
The twins had lewds last year. I wrote some.

>>50211227
Which ones were you anon? I'm the guy that wrote the shitty Pokemon battle between Teej and Viol.

>>50211252
I'll link some after my Overwatch comp match.

>>50211227
It was at least removed from /tg/ and the other boards, aside from /qa/ and the random boards I think.

And, female /tg/ was never shut down, it just got one or two guys really upset. And, the art made was pretty far removed from being fetishy, especially compared to some of pedophilic stuff involving /vp/.

And, speaking of comparisons, even the initial designs and variants for the female /tg/ were pretty impressive, because unlike the male one, they were actually designed to be cool and interesting. The male /tg/ was basically just a side character from the start, and it's largely why he's never been all that popular.

>>50211325
It's entirely up to you guys. I can post the images again, if people need the reference.

We can always have two -tans like our dates. /his/ has Herodotus and Historia, /vp/ has Vanille and Viol. We could have Teej and Tiji.

>>50211325
I personally realy like Teej but that's probably because of all the OC we've gotten from the ball these past few years.

The ball wasn't removed from /tg/ last year. In fact we volunteered to be pretty much a safe haven for /vp/ and /x/ from their nazi mod and /pol/ respectively.

>>50211385
Yeah, i really like Teej aswell. Mostly just because he's been through alot by now.

>>50211385
It was removed last year several times, all the way up to the date of the ball. The end result was just everyone moving over to /qa/.

And, male /tg/ was almost immediately outstripped with good OC from just a few short days of people talking about the female /tg/. In fact, that's probably what got one of those guys particularly upset, because if he didn't stamp down on how much he hated the /tg/-tan being female, her popularity would very likely would have overshadowed the male /tg/'s long but relatively fruitless lifespan.

He's just a really weak character, and kind of black spot for /tg/ with it being one of the better boards and having one of the worst -tans.

>>50211384
I think the whole 2 or more -tan thing has gotten to be too common. /vp/ had two tans to represent the two sides of the board and because Pokemon needs a second person to play against. Teej already has the ability to transform into a woman when flustered about rules being broken, so I don't see much of a lore reason for /tg/ to have a counterpart that he could fill the role of himself.

>>50211472
>Teej already has the ability to transform into a woman when flustered about rules being broken

That's awful.

As I recall, it was whenever people did barbaric and rule-breaking things, like putting a drink on a table without using a coaster.

>>50211459
I don't remember that at all. What I do remember is tons of quality OC revolving around Teej and the vp wins.
You sure this isn't wishful thinking? Because it sounds like wishful thinking.

>>50211555
>As I recall, it was whenever people did barbaric and rule-breaking things, like putting a drink on a table without using a coaster.

That's genuinely a terrible idea. It makes me really glad there's actually no such thing as "canon" for this thing,

>>50211578
I think we might just have very different definitions of "quality."

>>50211384
I like those names a lot.

>>50211555
from the thumbnail I thought the last one would be jojo posing

>>50211487
I think the actual/original rationale behind it was that if Teej gets mad about house rules being broken (like no coasters) he gets so focused on being mad that he doesn't maintain his form and randomly transforms into another persona or role. He's basically a role player whose appearance adapts and changes based on what's needed, like a shapeshifter bound by the character sheet. Him turning into a ca/tg/irl when mad was mostly a way to illustrate him losing his cool. Plus no one really stepped up back then to give him alternate appearances.

>>50211581
The story I like better was he asked /d/emona to fix a belt on some larp armor he was wearing and she turned it into a Belt of Gender Swap. Because the belt was broken in the first place though the magic leaked into Teej, changing his gender on rare occasions.

>>50211594
>it doesn't appeal to me so it's crap
I'm not even against the idea of a female-tan if it means more OC, but don't be That Guy, anon.

>>50211626
>>50211489
>>50211555
I think if we want to make a female-tan then we should wait until after the Winter Ball to do so. Throwing in a new character out of the blue seems like poor form to do right before e big event.
We should design Tiji after the ball (if people want to have two -tans) is over so she can attend the next year. That gives the other boards time to acclimate to her.

>>50209166
I think Golisopod here from the new game might be a fitting addition, simply from appearance alone.

Do we, as a board, have anything in terms of actually asking /his/ and /vp/ to the ball? Does anyone want to make a suggestion, or are we giving stories to them again?

>>50211770
Golisopod is fucking awesome but we'll probably have a discussion with /vp/ about finalizing the team. Vanille always breeds us a new pokemon every year as a gift so we'll have to see what they give us.

>>50211788
/his/ has already asked us and we accepted. Perhaps we could do something a bit more formal but the nitty gritty has been done on that front.

/vp/ has said that they want to ask us this year but with the influx of normies for the new games tripling their board speed it is incredibly hard for them to keep a thread up and active in daylight hours. If anything wants to happen it'll have to be a bit closer to nighttime.

But to contradict myself completely: stories are always nice anon. I'm sure no one would complain if you wrote one for asking.

>>50211830
Well, if they're asking us, I guess it'd be more contextually applicable to write us accepting.

>>50211665
Don't strawman.
And, if you want the full explanation as to why I found the majority of the male /tg/ art from last year disappointing, I think I've offered a fair criticism that isn't simply "i don't like it so its crap."

He's an awkward character that gets increasingly awkward when put next to much more modern designs like the /vp/ twins, and his own evolution has gone from simply being a boring guy with a t-shirt into what I'm going to harshly but honestly call a try-hard spazz that somehow has become even less appealing.

>>50211701
I think you tried saying this last year in hopes of stopping female /tg/. And, I guess it sort of worked, because you've essentially iced the drawfags that were drawing her last year.

>>50211853
How do you want to see Teej portrayed as?

>>50211867
I never said anything of the sort last year. I'm not opposed to making a female-tan, I actually quite like Tiji.

If the same thing did happen last year I don't understand why the drawfags didn't pick it back up after the ball. If you felt so strongly about it then why didn't you bring the topic up after the fact?

>>50211941
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yBd5RY7GRo

>>50211876
If anything, I'd actually advocate scrapping him entirely. Too many sacred cows, and it seems like the better ideas get forgotten while the worst ones get dragged around.

It may be an unpopular option to you guys who've invested a lot into him, but all the past stuff is just an enormous obstacle to creativity, rather than a font of inspiration.

When female /tg/, with the idea of not having to have any ties with the old model, was being discussed, the idea flourished dramatically. It's like people who were stuck in a cage were suddenly let free, allowed to explore ideas that didn't have to round back to some design that frankly started out rather lame.

/tg/-tan doesn't interest the overwhelming majority of /tg/, and that's a direct result of him just not being well designed, and getting worse as the years go on and the only direction behind him seeming to be "Don't forget that he looks like a loser no matter what he's wearing."

And, as radical as scrapping him entirely might sound, what's more radical to me is that there are people here who think that the past material is somehow sacred and needs to be respected, when it's largely just used as a blockade against what may be better ideas that they don't like because they contradict their own.

>>50211941
That's ship made in heaven.

>>50212041
Agreed. /tg/-tan is probably the oldest unchanged board-tan out there.

It's time for an update.

>>50212041
That's pretty drastic. Again, it would have to be voted on. Where is the google doc anon from last year?

>>50212099
While I'm not the guy from last year I am the guy who made the poll this year. I'd be happy to make another one regarding this matter but I do think >>50211701 has a point. It wouldn't be fair to the boards we are already going to the ball with to just suddenly say "hey you know that tan you asked out? Here's a completely new one with an unfinalized design." We could have a preliminary poll right now to gauge interests and opinions but I think its a very bad idea to make any permanent and drastic changes until after the event.

>>50212166
Please make a preliminary poll, then. If nothing else, it'll see if there's any interest in revitalizing our board's image or if our board should stick to a solid concept.

>>50212166
Could work on the new tan now, but only use the current one for the ball and the leadup to it.

>>50212099
I can agree it's pretty drastic, but it's the sort of thing where I'd rather see drawfags go ahead and try to move and inspire people before the question of whether or not they should is even asked.

One of the worst things about the whole female /tg/ business is that there were people trying to stamp it down before even giving it a chance, or designating it a secondary or subordinate idea like they somehow had some kind of authority in that regard. There's nothing that kills inspiration like being told that your ideas are somehow automatically worse than the ones that came before yours.

Rather than votes, I'd much rather just say "Drawfags, go to town. Draw what /tg/ feels like to you, and don't let anyone or anyone's ideas hold you back."

Some people might want to draw Teej. But, I feel like many would leap at the opportunity to try their hand and say "THIS is what the /tg/ board-tan should look like," and I have no problem saying that whatever they try would have very good chance of being a better designed character.

>>50212174

>>50212263
agreed. this lack of focus is concerning, what with not producing a single bit of artwork for the event or pairing yet.

Having been involved in working on tans, suggestions for opposite gender tans often makes me wary because females are often suggested for fapbait material (and almost solely fapbait material) and males tend to be suggested because people can't self-insert otherwise. I dropped out of console-tans when it became clear males weren't wanted and seen as a waste for perfectly good waifu content and the few advocates for other male tans were autists who couldn't handle women in vidya.

I'm just someone who wants to see more OC in general, but doesn't mean I'm not wary of past trends creeping up again that potentially hurt or centralize OC creation.

In any case, I think the best course of action for doing anything with /tg/-tan is >>50212201

We can work on redesigning /tg/-tan while people are interested in the ball, but debut them after the ball once we get a consistent design philosophy set. This way we get the most input going, no one feels like it was left to the clean up committee, and people don't feel like it got brushed off again to kill discussion and dissent for Teej

>>50212315
The lack of "focus" is more of a lack of inspiration. "Teej" is just not an interesting or fun character to draw or write for.

>>50212352
>In any case, I think the best course of action for doing anything with /tg/-tan is >>50212201

And I vehemently disagree. It's just trying to put ice on the idea again, and that's just unfair and even somewhat despicable.

Alright. Here's a preliminary poll for the whole -tan situation. This is by no means the be all end all poll. This is only to garner interests and opinions on the matter.

But I like current /tg/-tan. He comes off as representative of the board without being cringeily overdesigned like some of these tans >>50211489>>50211555. And before you argue that some of them have pretty simple designs too, why even change at that point?. He feels, well... Traditional. It fits him a lot better than turning him into some bimbo with memes plastered all over her.

Speaking of which, why a girl? /tg/ comes off as /totallygay/ more of a "manly" board, anyway.

>>50212447
Oh, fuck you.

>without being cringeily overdesigned

Where are you looking? Do you have eyes?
Teej started off as just boring, and when people tried to address that, they did it in the worst way, but holding onto everything that made him dull and then just slapping on costumes in hopes of it being a sufficient replacement for a personality.

And, fuck your gay shit as well.

>>50212447
You might be everything wrong about Teej, compiled into a single person.

>>50212494
He's 100% right though.

>>50212488
>Teej started off as just boring
You realize we're talking about a board-tan here, not a some steel donut to parade as a paragon of depth. Simplicity is a necessary feature of the character since it allows for variation.

people are bringing up reasonable points, and giving their opinions in rational ways, dont get defensive, or no one will take you seriously, please.
also, you are free to draw whatever you like, this is a collaborative enterprise.

>>50212488
>fuck your gay shit

For someone advocating changing a tan because other people on the board are too afraid of new things, you sure are a faggot about opinions.

>>50212447
I'm going to argue otherwise.

Out of those girl designs, none of them are overdesigned, especially compared to many of the iterations of /tg/-tan where people were just slapping things like commissar hats and power arms onto him.

Most of those designs are actually rather refreshing, rather than "cringey". While the catgirls might be a bit to on the nose, each design is rather simple and looks like someone with a history and personality, which is a credit to the original artist. Many of the references to traditional games are actually quite subtle, like the hoody designs.

They definitely make me excited to see what other drawfags could think up, given the opportunity.

>>50212557
If the guy is going to try to press his fetish shit, I get the right to tell him to fuck off.

>>50212514
We're talking character designs, and there's never any reason to try and justify boring being good or even permissible. Let another board have the background NPCs.

And, this isn't a new idea. People have already tried to ditch the old designs pretty hard, in hopes of trying to make something interesting, but the old remnants just keep cluttering up anything new and making it suffer for it.

The /tg/ board-tan really needs a clean break.

>>50212609
you did also try this last yeah,
and again, i disagree.
i feel if you could draw, you would have produced but since you dont, after the vote comes back, i ask you to respect it.

>>50212503
100% wrong, actually.
Don't want a meme-bimbo? Then don't worry, because that's unlikely to happen. And, if it does, that's just the natural forces of people's interests at work, and there's really no reason to try and selfishly stop it.

I can actually agree that I'd prefer to avoid the idea of a bimbo with memes on her, but I don't have the arrogance to assume that I should stop people from trying that if that's what they want to try. These old ideas of "legacy" and "consistency" are not helping anyone, nor is having "idea guys" shout down people trying new things.

Let people have fun with this, and stop trying to be so controlling just to preserve a character that's mediocre at best.

Poll results so far.

>Do you feel that /tg/'s -tan Teej could use an update, redesign, or is fine the way he is?

46.7% No he's perfectly fine the way he is.
40% An update wouldn't hurt but we shouldn't change him too much
13.3% Scrap the whole thing and start over. Teej is a bad represtation of /tg/

>Do you feel that we should have two tans, one boy and one girl?

81.3% No. Two tans is being overused and we only need the one.
12.5% I like the idea of having both.
6.3% We should only have the girl-tan.

So far the preliminary poll is leaning towards keeping Teej the same, though the update option is not very far off.

>>50212609
>Let another board have the background NPCs.
They already do. /tg/-tan is one of the most popular board-tan characters. In large part because of long pedigree, I would imagine.

>>50212646
I feel like if I tried to draw something, I'd be met by hostility.

That is NOT a good environment for this sort of thing. Do you understand that? That your proposed vote is just another method to make new ideas feel unwelcome?

>>50212609
I think you were saying this last year, if I remember correctly. If anons feel the need to draw a new version of /tg/ tan they will draw it and if other anons like it then we can go with it. Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with /tg/ tan.

>>50212674
Not on /tg/ though. And, compared to the population (/tg/ is actually one of the more populated boards), relatively he's incredibly unpopular.

>>50212701
>13% vote to scrap
>incredibly unpopular

go hang yourself.

>>50212688
There is something wrong about hostility towards new ideas though. The way that people here reacted to the female /tg/'s popularity was genuinely atrocious to witness.

I dont know what to tell you, people will draw what they want and most people prefer the classic.
i can't explain why there are other opinions than yours if you dont already know that, anon.

>>50212718
Do you have the numbers? I doubt you have a considerable sample size.

Also, relatively unpopular in the sense that he's basically forgotten until the winterball crew starts making these threads, and even then he gets almost no content made compared to similarly populated boards.

>>50212730
>female /tg/'s popularity
Que?

>>50212701
You clearly don't go to other boards much.

>>50212730
The way I remember it people were pretty chill and not outraged barring one guy. They liked the female Teej designs but we ultimately decided to stay with Teej.

>>50212765
There has been 18 votes so far. 2 less than we had gotten from an entire day yesterday of polling for a date.

Wiping Teej clean has dropped to 11.8%.

>>50212738
You shouldn't try to speak for more people than yourself.

"Most", as far as you care, seems to be a handful of people, with the overwhelming majority of /tg/ not caring at all about this thing, as evident by the thousands of people browsing /tg/ each minute ignoring this.

And, I'm willing to argue that it might be because it's very hard to care about this even if you do care about /tg/ itself.

>>50212765
>Forgotten until the Winter ball
That goes for most board-tans, anon.

Anyway, why do these yearly redesign pushes never manage to live through the Winter Ball season? Is it just the same handful of people that keep coming back and demanding it? Seriously, if you want it so badly, just repropose the motion a week after the event is over, or try out what >>50212352 offered. No sense in making things so confusing while we seem to be asking out four different boards.

>>50212802
I was speaking for the people that took the poll, that yes, mostly care. thats why you take polls,.

>And, I'm willing to argue that it might be because it's very hard to care about this even if you do care about /tg/ itself.

You're really reaching, and i see theres no convincing you. I sincerely hope you can let it go and enjoy yourself

>>50212765
Because board-tans are not supposed to be a year round thing.

They are for 1-3 months a year for winter ball to encourage interaction between boards and then go into hibernation to give the drawfags and writefags a rest so they don't burn out/leave.

Almost no boards have board-tan threads outside of the 2-4 month window around the winter ball.

>>50212792
>They liked the female Teej designs but we ultimately decided to stay with Teej.

Who is "we"? Who makes these "ultimate decisions"? You really need to stop acting like there's a sinister cabal behind this whole thing.

Female /tg/ was discussed fervently, up until the threads were moved to /qa/. There was never any final decision made, and in fact it's actually somewhat disconcerting to hear you pretend that anyone decided anything, as if anything like that even could be decided.

This whole business of "this is canon, don't mess with it" is ridiculous, and the continued hostility towards new ideas is unhealthy. The fact that people are still trying to stamp down discussion of a female /tg/ is ridiculous, ridiculous to the point where I feel I need to remind everyone that its insane to make demands like "we should focus on X" or "don't discuss Y", like they somehow feel threatened that people who actually produce content will prefer other people's ideas over those they've tried to establish.

>>50212859
>Who is "we"?
please fuck off.

>>50212852
They don't have board-tan threads, but other board-tans do enjoy some measure of popularity. The ones that don't are ones like /tg/, which just have failed designs that didn't catch or spark any interest, or belong to less populated boards.

>>50212859
>Who is we
The people who were on the board at the time and voted in the poll. There's no sinister cabal or secret organization. Just regular people who liked the idea of the winter ball. If more people agreed on changing Teej than we would have changed it but it didn't get enough support to garner change and hence we didn't change it.

>stamp down discussion
I don't see anyone trying to shoot down the topic of changing Teej. I see people discussing the matter and saying their opinions.

>>50212859
Look, the ideas that people like survive and are spread
Those that they don't fail and die, perhaps reposted once in a blue moon.

There's no cabal keeping female /tg/ down, there's just not enough people who give a shit about her to make her stick unlike the /tg/ with history (who never goes fa/tg/uy mode anymore because, again, no one cares about that bit)

>>50212876
You are retarded.

You claim they are popular but dont have threads, that sounds exactly like /tg/.

You are the same retard from a year or two ago that spammed your opinion of the current version being a "failed design" because people rejected your donut steel designs.
