Like all great projects, you leave it behind for a while... 5 years might be a little too long, time to get back on the saddle and work on it.For those that were in the loop back in the day, this is a revival effort to bring /3/ back to the cup and even though /3/'s history in the 4CC isn't necessarily stellar, it's always a work in progress. Things have changed since the last time the team played an official match, Konami stopped making games and we've been reusing older games with mixed success, however there are tools to have the same model quality as the newer versions of Pro Evolution Soccer before the series ceased production by converting them to the older games. For those that don't even know what this is all about, the 4CC is an inter-board competition where /3/ used to compete from 2012-2015 with a revival that went from 2018-2021, the team has fallen inactive since then but if there's enough interest ITT the team will return to competition with me and my co-manager Wyvern at the helm. There are 4 cups per year named after each season featuring the Elite and Babby divisions, the second division is the entry point for new/reviving teams and with the Spring Babby Cup coming up, team registration has opened and the time is now to revive /3/.Let's go fire up Blender one more time and kick a ball around, hopefully we don't lose too badly. For more info see https://implyingrigged.info/wiki//3/
Gentlemen, download those new Blender addons you've been looking at, dust off your graphics tablets, put on your beautifully modelled boots, it's time for some divegrass.I'll be lending a hand with keeping things running. Let's see what /3/ can do after a good long rest.
Finally! I thought you guys were too scared to revive the team, let's go
>>1026506hopefully we'll stay for good this time
>>1026508>>1026509Hopefully we can give the team a good outing and you guys will enjoy the new tweaks, changes and additions. Appreciate your support.
>>1026510what new changes are coming this time around? The team was already pretty good last time
>>1026511We'll be taking it slow for now, gonna be introducing some new kits and at least one new player (as seen in >>1026507) as we'll be adapting to the older PES engine's way of doing things, we quite like the existing roster the team had and think it is a good starting point, it'll develop as time goes on, of course.
>>1026512sounds fine by me as the team is just coming back, good luck!
ALL RISE FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNeGlEtVd34&
>two actual managersBlessed day.
>>1026517Didn't think we'd ever get revived, let alone get two managers
Can someone summarize if this is a modeling collaboration or something? Where are the bodies/rigs we are supposed to use as a base?
>>1026520The models will be done in-house by me and my co-manager as the job of the manager is to put together the team, both tactically and aesthetically. The "aesthetics" refers to the stuff you see on the pitch such as kits and the aforemetioned player models.We will be gladly taking player requests to make the team represent the board more, if you or anyone are interested in helping out please check the wiki.https://implyingrigged.info/wiki/Blender_tutorials
>>1026521What if we volunteer models/topology, could you use that?
>>1026522Should be able to, would need to weight paint it to make it show up in game but yes.
postan to bring back the /3/, hell yeah!
are we going to be in fetus as a reviving team?
>>1026528We'd be qualifying straight to the main tournament if I recall correctly
>>1026528>>1026529That is correct, reviving teams get a bye directly to the main tournament.
>>1026530Hopefully we can return to the elites, we have unfinished business there.
>>1026524Okay, where do I send models to?
>>1026536You can either put it on catbox and share it here since we're both looking at the thread or alternatively contact information will be listed here https://implyingrigged.info/wiki/Contact
what is this? putting goofy character models into some football game?
>>1026540Pretty much, and you get to compete against other boards that are doing the same. Not to mention that the players and teams represent the board.
>>1026542when is this cup going to be held?
>>1026545The upcoming Spring Babby dates are as follows;April 24th-26thMay 1st-3rdMay 9th-10th
>>1026546thanks!
>>1026506Is this the same management team as the 2019 run or no?
>>1026558It isn't
>>1026558>>1026560Can confirm, previous manager is long gone and retired.
>>1026561what even happened to him?
>>1026570Just resigned and just disappeared back to the aesthetics realm he came from, the co-manager he had also disappeared.
How do we go about recommending team players
>>1026579Anyone reading this can recommend them on this thread since we're keeping an eye on it, if there's even enough new player ideas we'll consider making a roster poll to keep it fresh. We'll start small and keeping what we already have for now though, just testing the waters for the time being.
>>1026580Got it
let's go back to the cup /3/!
Huh, glad to see the thread get more than just 3 replies like last time
>>1026617that was not the last time, we came back for a bit in 2020
>>1026506why are we using an old version of PES?
>>1026643Since there is no new PES forthcoming because >eFutbol, older versions of PES are being rotated around to try and keep things a bit fresher.
>>1026644thanks konami
>>1026644do we even know what version is going to be used this tournament?
>>1026682Yes, we're on 15 for Spring
>>1026682>>1026683It's not been confirmed just yet. It's most likely going to be PES 2015 but it's not been confirmed yet, will be confirmed after friendlies.
>>1026683>>1026684what a mess
>>1026686My bad, I genuinely thought the decision had already been made to roll with 15 for Spring
We are ready to go for friendlies! Submitted the exports and you'll be seeing /3/'s comeback games this Friday and Saturday. 3rd game in line both days, roughly at 18:20 UTC.
>>1026737Is the purple haired woman cris derived
>>1026738It's Kirika from Eiken
>>1026737good luck guys!
Friendlies didn't necessarily go to plan, the most disappointing part was that we couldn't even score one. That's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes as PES was clearly not amused by our offerings but we've got options and we chose one of them for friendlies, we'll have something else for cup proper.We might play again tomorrow depending on whether or not the commissioner books us in one of the remaining slots.
>>1026782Early days I guess, couldn't have gone much worse but it's a long road ahead.
>>1026782>We might play again tomorrow depending on whether or not the commissioner books us in one of the remaining slots.>booked again vs /vm/>lose 3-1At least we got a goal this time.
>>1026787Progress, at least.
>>1026782>>1026787same old /3/ it would seem
>>1026791PES 15 knows, it remembers
>>1026688Here's what we know on the matter now that the commissioner has given the word.>PES 15 confirmed for Spring 26 at least>GGSSS medals at 99 rated golds, 88 rated silvers, 77 rated nonmedals and 74 rated goalkeepers>will be using the same ruleset and patch as used in friendlies>subs reduced from 4 to 3 to take account for the medals being changed from 4 to 5tl;dr - PES 15 confirmed this cup
>>1026879>will be using the same ruleset and patch as used in friendliesHopefully you guys will learn from friendlies because that was not great.
>>1026888It's true, things definitely did not go our way in the friendlies. Changes have been made so going forward hopefully things will turn out better and the PES gods will smile on us. Then again, 15 seemingly has a vendetta against us specifically but we'll do our best to bring home some wins.
We got approved! As a reviving team, we will be heading directly to Spring proper as a pot 4 team, draw will be at 17:00 UTC on the 19th of April.
>>1027060We're back!
>>1027060LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>1027060Please god don't give us /mlp/
Now that we're confirmed in, the dates and times for the upcoming babby cup are as follows;Group Stage Draw - April 19th, 1700 UTC (as posted above, could be interesting, could be deeply traumatic, we shall see)Opening Weekend - April 24th-26th, 1700 UTCSecond Weekend - May 1st-3rd, 1700 UTCFinal Weekend - May 9th-10th, 1700 UTCLooking forward to seeing you all there.
>>1027119>could be interesting, could be deeply traumaticcan't wait to play against /pol/ and /mlp/!
Alright folks, today is the day of the Spring Babby Cup draw, tune in at 17:00 UTC!Additionally, we'll be moving back to stadium.blend that we used back in Autumn 2018 and Winter 2019 because Polly's Wonderland (pic related) couldn't be converted too well to the older versions of PES, no shaders made it look garish and even though we tried our best to mitigate it, with the cup coming up we decided to cut our losses and revert to the old stadium.
>>1027669yeah good call, that does NOT look good
>>1027675It's pretty on-brand for 80s CG stank but yeah, it's not looking how we would like it and after looking at the model and its UVs any work to get it looking better for 15 is going to be pretty major.
Well, here's the draw results fellas. That means we'll be straight up for a match on Friday 24th.
>>1027682>/pol/>/u/Autumn it is.
>>1027685I don't like to put too much of a negative spin on things but yeah, this isn't exactly the draw we were hoping for and this is going to be a pretty tough group straight out of the gate with /pol/ and /u/. That being said we'll give it our best shot.
>>1027682>that groupSurely they rigged it against us, what other explanation is there?
>>1027687Sou has a mystical, chaotic energy
>>1027688god damn that mexican
We gotta believe!
Nearly there! We're just one hour away from our 4CC return for the first time in 5 years, our match is scheduled to start at 19:00 UTC but given that things are usually slower on the first day, do keep in mind we may not start until a little after that.Hopefully this video can act as a good luck charm, this was the goal that sent us through to the Winter 2019 final and our last victory on this game engine.
>>1027861GET HYPE!
>>1027863Hyp indeed, wish us luck!
>>1027861>>1027863>>1027864you will never have three stars tripfag you will play rigged games against /LGBT/ and lose, you zill be happy abo it this.
>>1027865You lost, buddy? /lgbt/ is over in Group G, we're in Group B.
>>1027869Thanks, it's a shame it ended in a draw when we pulled out a two goal lead more than once but there you go. I'm personally pleased we helped deliver an entertaining game, fingers crossed going forwards though there's a couple of tough matches coming. Make sure you post your car model here when you're done so we can all have a look.
>>1027871It was a nailbiter, that's for sure. Very entertaining.>Make sure you post your car model here when you're done so we can all have a look.Will do. Have a donut as a holdover
>>1027873It really was a nailbiter, the defending fuckups were raising my blood pressure that's for sure. Nice donuts too
>>1027871we played well, gotta keep our heads high
Fantastic game, tough result to take. For what it's worth we're thrilled the viewing public with maybe the best game in the tournament and the successful debut of Gunt, however the game itself was up and down with the attack being buttery smooth and Doomrider becoming an absolute god to always keep us within reach. The goalkeeper letting in that weird free kick didn't help either.Inexperience definitely came back to haunt us as ten men abuse dug the grave, admittedly we didn't know how to deal with it as their red card drastically changed the match and it started getting away from us, maybe parking the bus was the wrong decision but at the same time everything was going to plan until that red card. I can't promise that things will get better with the remaining schedule we have but we'll give it our best shot, our destiny is still in our hands.
>>1027876Don't be so down on yourself, we played well but there's nothing you can do when your opponent's striker played the way he played. Good luck, it has only just begun.
As an additional, since he was so well received on his first official outing, I'm pleased to say Gunt has already secured himself an emote slot on the cytube. Enjoy.
>>1027890Are there any sorts of award this guy could win?
>>1027893He could get best model or if he ends up getting involved in something silly could definitely end up in the Pulitzer
>>1027905>best modelGood opportunity for us to get something out there, looks like people took a liking to him.
Alright gang. We're about an hour and a half away (give or take accounting for Sou time) from the start of day 3 of the 2026 Spring Babby Cup. We're up second at 17:40 UTC and we've got a tough opponent today - /u/. They're an experienced team and out for blood following the breaking of their Elite Cup streak so come, show your support and let's see what we can do.
>>1027944have a good feeling about this game and I don't know why
>>1027945Well, here's hoping your intuition is good and that the PES gods look kindly upon us today
>>1027944WORL PREMIERE
>>1027890Gunt inspired me to become a 3D artist.Installing blender 5.1 now.
>>1027952Very nice, enjoy
>>1027952pirate Rhino3D instead and design sneakers for flips
WE DID IT! This is the moments we live for, we knew it was a tough group and we went up against a bloodthirsty team and walked away with the three points. I thought we were toast once they took the lead but >blender got us level on a fantastic through ball and Utah Teapot finally got his head out of his ass to score the go-ahead goal after being regrettable all cup and friendlies. I am really proud of this team and none of this would've happened without your support, this moment belongs to you all. We can't afford to rest now, we can go through to the knockouts if /tg/ beats /u/ but I doubt that'll be happening. Onwards to the game against /pol/ where we'll have to give it our all one last time!
>>1027968LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>1027968/pol/ looked dreadful in their games but they might spring a surprise. Good luck.
>>1027968/vg/ here, holy shit you guys looked legit. Winter 2019 rerun soon?
>>1027968EnjoySome OC of /u/ getting fuckedhttps://litter.catbox.moe/2i9luafetzmjbqtr.png
>>1027981to the victor goes the spoils, baby!
>>1027981Holy shit, thank you management team for making this juicy OC possible.
For those of you that haven't checked out /4ccg/, here's the matrix going into next weekend for you all. Plenty of opportunities for us to go onwards so wish us luck in our next match against /pol/ on Saturday 2nd May.
>>1027987so we just need /tg/ to kill /u/ for us to advance, i just hope we beat /pol/ so that match doesn't matter for us
>>1028002Correct, if /tg/ beat /u/, we're automatically through. If both us and /tg/ win, we're also through to the knockouts. That also extends to us drawing with /pol/ in which case if /u/ wins it'll be us and /u/ going through. The ones to be concerned about are the event of /pol/ winning and /u/ either winning or drawing. The most stressful event of all will be both /pol/ and /u/ each winning with a one or more goal lead with both matches having the same scoreline in which case we will have to play /tg/ again in a playoff to decide which of us goes through.
>>1027890>>1027985More Gunt
>>1028048Absolutely incredible, Gunt is a real ladies' man it seems
>>1028048Go get 'em, Gunt!
>>1028048he's so smooth with it
Well, here we are, the final weekend of groups. We're up for our last match today and we're playing /pol/. We're in a pretty good position but that's no reason to get complacent, of course the result of the /tg/ vs /u/ match could result in automatic promotion for us but either way, we're not going to be taking anything for granted. We'll be closing the day out at a projected 21:40 UTC so come along, wish us luck and get hyp.
>>1028164Qualification beckons, let's go and get it!
>>1028164how long has it been since the last elite cup we were in? like half a decade or so? all the more reason to be motivated for this game
>>1028170Yeah, Winter '21 was the last time we were in an Elite and we crashed out of that one quite badly, taking the wooden spoon on 1 point and -5 GD.
>>1028164>>1028173Good luck.
>>1028164I came here to congratulate you on advancing to Summer.
>>1028189Well thankyou
ELITE AND MUSCULAR /3/. Well there you have it, not only have we successfully promoted to the elites, we've topped the group. I can't quite believe I'm saying it and I can promise you I didn't expect it when I saw the group we'd been drawn into. Thanks for watching and cheering for us through the groups, this is where it gets more real going into the knockouts and later the elites but we'll do the best we can to bring success and something enjoyable to watch.
What a ride, never in my wildest dreams did I think we'd be going to the Elites in our first attempt, the 15th year anniversary tournament at that. I will admit that I beat myself up a lot over the /tg/ draw but things panned out for us, /tg/ are god's chosen autopilot again and I only really started believing that it was possible when we managed to get that 3-2 win over /u/. Additionally, thank you very much to /tg/ for clinching us qualification while we were on the couch. In a moment like this, I'd like to think about what the goals were pre-cup, I just wanted us to have a decent showing and to make people enjoy the team like we did, Gunt has become a cup sensation and we're hoping we can win the Best Model award with him but it'll be an uphill climb. Either way, this cup has already been a smashing success for what we were hoping to achieve and we hope to push on and make you guys proud on Saturday and hopefully Sunday.
>>1028193>>1028195so proud of you guys oh my god
>>1028193>>1028195Way to go guys, let's push on and try to win it. After all, we beat /pol/ and /u/, what can't we do?
/3/LITE AND MUSCULAR
>>1027981>>1028048/u/ need /u/r panties ripped off and /3/ BIG GUNT DICKS in ALL /3/ holes at the same time!!! Way up /u/r pussy and way up /u/r ass as far as they will go but even farther. And the thickest cock goes down /u/r throat so it makes /u/ gag and convulse as those big gunt cocks pound away it feels like from the start. Such good shit!
>>1028199The weak must fear the strong.
With the group stages drawing to a close, we're going into the round of 16 next, no more draws, someone will win, extra time and benuldies :DDDDDD are now on. If you didn't catch the draw this evening, the hat has decreed that we will be playing /g/ next. This is shaping up to be an interesting match, /g/ are looking pretty solid so it might be a bit of a nailbiter. All I can promise is that we'll give it our all so come along on Saturday and show your support, it'll be very much appreciated.
>>1028238>potential QF opponents are /vg/>potential SF opponents are /lgbt/>potential final opponents are /v/why are we playing an elite cup in babby
>>1028239You raise a good point, we've managed to slip into a wacky timeline. I choose to look at it optimistically as a bit of good practice for Summer.
>>1028238Let's keep things rolling, I think after escaping a group like that we can beat anyone.
>>1028240if you want to be the best you have to beat the best, just didn't expect it to be in a babby
>>1028244True enough
>>1027893Gunt has his own show.
>>1028260had*
Writing this as a reminder for myself, if /3/ wins against /g/ Ill draw Satania getting FUCKED
>>1028328Fingers crossed!
>>1028328What happens if it ends up the other way around? Nothing?
>>1028332I don't know
The day has come, /3/ are about to play in their first knockout game in 6 years. We'll be playing in Summer (for the first time in 14 years!) no matter what happens today but we want to see how far we can push it, /g/ will be a tough team to play against as they're one of the favorites but we've come prepared. This is also the first time we face them in 12 years and things looked a little different back then, needless to say the teams now look leaps and bounds better than they did back then.Tune in at 17:40 UTC for /3/ vs /g/, the second match of the day, where we'll be hoping to make it to the final day for a fourth time and face off against either /vg/ or /vp/ there. There are no easy games for us this cup so let's go and give it our best shot.
>>1028414Good luck gentlemen, you've made us proud so far.
>>1028414LET'S GO i believe in the titl/3/
Alright lads, first match is done, we're up next. Let's do this.
LETS GOOOOOOOO
>>1028421nice job with the music export fucking DWEEB
>>1028423
Hey /3/, /vp/fag here rooting for you guys to avenge us
>>1028426that was a tough loss, oof
WE'RE THROUGH! Well there it is, we're going through to the final day of the 2026 Spring Babby Cup with a 4-1 win over /g/. The lads put out a great performance today with WIP scoring two and solidifying our lead at 81' and NO >YOUR< PROGRAM SUCKS sealing it away at 90+4'. Unfortunately he did also pick up a yellow card so that's something we'll be keeping an eye on.Tomorrow we'll be up against /vg/ who are looking extremely competent so this promises to be another tough match for us but we're looking forward to the challenge. Once again, thanks for all your support, come along tomorrow and cheer us on for one more match day!
>>1028433You guys are miracle workers, just need THREE more wins for /3/ to win it all.
>>1028433>33check 'em

>>1028438any thoughts of wip-chan getting in on the action or do we have to go all the way?
>>1028441Maybe
>>1028438Good shit anon, plenty of material to work with on /vg/.
>>1028443Fumika is the choice
>>1028444XD
>>1028445what's so fuuny huh?
>>1028444Unity-chan is probably the most appropriate of all but who am I to argue with trips
>>1028447unity-chan would be perfect because of the unity goalkeeper kit
>>1028447>>1028450Do you have a pic of unity chan?
>>1028451I think there's some on the booru too
>>1028451her summer 18 run was the most iconic one + she's in the /vg/ kit
Here we are friends, the final day of the 2026 Spring Babby Cup beckons, one more day at the altar of PES.We're opening up the day with a match against /vg/, an experienced opponent looking to be the first team ever to retain their Babby Cup Winner title. Let's see if we can put a stop to that. Thankyou for all the support on our run so far, come along once more and cheer for /3/ and let's see what we can do!
>>1028470Glory awaits, let's go avenge Spring 2012.
>>1028470at this stage whatever happens, happensyou and AR have done amazingly so far, let's just have fun for one more day
>>1028470THREE more wins is all we need

>>1028480see you in the final or honestly i'd rather not, you guys look scary
Well, that was exciting wasn't it? Onwards, to the semi-finals after our victory over /vg/ in a real nailbiter that came down to extra time with the game winner being scored right at the death.Thank you all for the congratulations, we're playing /vst/ next, pick your favourite 3d strategy game, the age of 2d is over.

Gunt fucks Rouge, with size differencethoughts?
>>1028502who's rouge?
>>1028502I think he means the bat from Sonic.
>>1028504Rouge the bat, she's on /vmg/
>>1028505>>1028506could've taken any of the huge titty elves, they look hot
>>1028507Who is that? I don't know her
>>1028507Yeah, Gunt deserves 2 big titty elves.
>>1028508whoever "Elven Milk" and "Cuck Chair Enthusiast" from the /vmg/ roster are
>>1028510To be honest I'm only familiar with Rouge and the "Die for me" Alice girl
>>1028510Elven Milk is Cerestia from Last Origin. Dunno who the choccy elf is
I only looked into what was going on with you guys after I realized my team got knocked out by a team I thought was ded and fossilized.I just want to say that even though you guys are two goals behind right now, you've already come so amazingly far, and I still believe you can do it and make a storybook ending for your big comeback. The energy and enthusiasm I see in this thread is exactly what we need to keep this great 4chan tradition alive. Thank you guys for this great run and GOOD LUCK. I BELEIVE IN YOU!
>>1028514NEVER GIVE UP
I WANT THAT MONKEY KILLED
Sack the monkey, put Gunt in his position.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
even if you didnt win the cup, this was an amazing outing by /3/. good job, keep it up, ill be rooting for ya in summer unless youre up against /myteam/ :^)
/m/ here, sincere commiserations /3/. You all did great on your first cup back. Your matches were fun to watch, your team looks great and you've undoubtedly earned the title of team of the tournament, at least in my book. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you all come Summer. Minor side note, Gunt is probably the best new player I've ever seen a team add. He's already transcended into a 4cc meme player.
I'm actually heartbroken
>>1028523You guys won the people's hearts with gunt, so don't be too sadcongrats on making it this far, whilst also being a fun team to watcht. horsefucker
Hey /3/, /vmg/bro here, sorry it had to end up like this, but you guys did incredible for your first time back and were very fun to watch, hope we could potentially have a rematch in Summer!
Well that was a good run, keep your chin up /3/, you were very fun to follow around.
That's the cup decided, we'll have to settle for second place for a third time I'm afraid. If this is a bit rambling, sorry in advance.I'll start by saying a huge thank you to all of you that have shared your support and enthusiasm for the revival of /3/, it's been a long time coming and I'm blown away by just how positive the reception has been. We set out to bring some extra fun to the cup and I think we've done a pretty good job.I still can't quite believe what a cup run we've had and I think overall the team has played really well, unfortunately there have been some blunders and pretty blinding player fuckups when it really mattered - Suzanne I'm looking at you, you stupid monkey. It'd be a lie to say my heart didn't sink while watching the initial draw getting grouped up with /u/ and /pol/ but we pushed through and carried on all the way to the battle for the Babby win. I would never have believed it if someone said to me that we'd make it all the way to the final day on our very first cup post-revival.I hope we've done you guys proud and I'm thrilled that we'll be playing in Summer so please, tune in, we will be back.I'll be looking at doing some form of polling post-cup so keep an eye out for that.Thanks again for all your support, it means a lot.
>>1028528Good effortAs a request for summer, remix Colin's bear but with Gunt
Thank you all for the support in the threads and on the stream! It's a huge shame that we couldn't bring the title home despite the incredible run we had and the teams we had to face to get there. This hurts a lot but we have to look back to how we got here. When we revived the team, you guys showed such hunger and enthusiasm that made us give that extra 10% in every game, we couldn't have gone this far without your passion and support for the team. Not to mention that Gunt became a superstar right on day one, we took our little dude and made him adored by the whole audience, that's one of the great things about this cup and we've added another positive contribution.If you had offered me this before the cup, I'd have happily accepted it. This cup was a lot of fun and a lot of great memories were made, even though we didn't bring the cup home and joined the 3-cup-loser club we still had a fantastic time and that's what it's all about. We'll be back in Summer and try our luck there, we were learning as we went and inexperience ultimately got us when we had our backs against the wall. Thank you all for the support that got us back into the cup and thank you for being here with us during this cup run, I hope we gave you some pleasant memories and that you had fun.
I just wanted to say as a spectator of old, I'm really glad you brought back a cup classic, and in such great form.You should sic Sayaka (Yumi) on Suzanne, or at least figure out what's their fuckin problem, and also the world comes together for love of Gunt. I'm proud of you guys and I wish you all the best of luck in Summer!
>>1028528>>1028533you two are heroes, sure we've been to an elite final before but this felt different, the magic is back

Good afternoon all, the games might be over until Summer but Spring isn't quite done yet. The voting for the Auties is currently ongoing so, click the link below to have your say and let's see if we can pick up a few awards for the team.https://forms.gle/KinXBuHS1HJtX8ay8
>>1028573voted for /3/ for most awards but for best model i voted for memebike because i fear that we might become hated for driving the gunt meme into the ground
>>1028596Thanks for casting your votes, it should go without saying that I want voting to be as fair and unbiased (as possible anyway) and to that end I also voted for Memebike, as much as I like Gunt and the reception he got, his model doesn't compare to the complexity and creativity of the Memebike models that we saw, that's truly a worthy winner.>i fear that we might become hated for driving the gunt meme into the groundSpeaking entirely personally this is also something I'm keenly aware of and I really don't want him to overstay his welcome and become super stale after a single cup run. Ideally his time on the pitch would be more evenly shared with Ratboy Genius - he doesn't need to play every game. Therein lies the conflict with the will of PES and the conditions lottery.
>>1028596This is certainly a valid concern, as a reviving team we wanted to showcase Gunt since we felt that he would be a good representative for the board and we were right because he then went on to become a hit, we're glad that the cup loved him as much as we do but I personally don't want to overdo it either. Gunt played so many games because we wanted to please the fans, we figured since that it was a Babby cup then why not. Additionally, PES really forced our hand as he was usable in every game except the one vs /u/, we'll be looking to give some of the other guys more love in Summer since the Elites are taken more seriously and we also don't want to become annoying or even disliked for having one joke and just one joke.
>>1028597>>1028604you guys are certainly in an unenviable position having to make chat happy while also not trying to become repetitive
>>1028638We'll just try our best to do what's right, Gunt will get at least a game if conditions permit it but it's not like we'll use him at every chance we get like in Spring.
>>1028596>>1028597>>1028604This is understandable I vote for him to be subbed in when in need
>>1028656seconding this, he'd be fine on the first game or at least one group stage gamelove the little dude but let's not become a one-meme team
