>Iron Will>Fancy Pants>Jackie Chan Tulpa>Discord>Kevin>Scorpan>Daniel Ingram>Chad Spike
>>42831446...will all lose
>>42831450...in my fanfic
>>42831452...said no one ever
>>42830842Damn i was hoping for Discord and Brandon in the finale, not now
>>42831446Chad Spike shoudn't win anything other than meme. If OG Spike didn't win already it would have been fair game, but at this point its like appoingint same character in a different meme headcanon. People already got mad over using different versions of Twilight or Applejack to beat up OG Fluttershy or OF Rarity from advancing. That's why I'm calling for disqualification of Chad Spike from main game
>>42831446While I doubt he'll take the crown in the end, Scorpan is on a roll this year, and I'm well entertained watching him reach the top 8, hopefully.It's also a good mix of actual show characters and board-relevant competitors this year. Without memes, a poll is too sterile. But if it were memes only, it'd appear a bit too "fan of the fandumb".>Discord VS Brandon the Brony PonyBrandon is quite the powerful specimen, but last time I checked, he looked up to Discord. Deep down, the Noodle is the father figure his downtrodden yet shameless soul craves. Truly, it was during an Anon room party at a con last year when I was snoozing on a sofa while Brandonkino was shown, and a sudden sense of dread and bewilderment pulled me out of my slumber:Who the fuck is THAT (voice) supposed to be??Indeed, I stood eye to (i) with the beast known as unrigged SFM Discord 3D model. He told Brandon to find himself a cute mare and have children. The way SFM Discord did the T-posing helicopter and clipped across the screen really sold the fatherly tenderness of this rare gem of Discordian wisdom. As a Discord cosplayer, I reminded my fellow Anons of this noble quest the next morning, not holding back on the raw gusto of glitchy T-posing.Worried, I prayed that Anon will find his mare before Brandon claims her, but a DeLancian voice whispered back: "Fear not!". For whatever terrible power Brandon may wield in his realm, said realm is his golden prison and containment. And how right he was, for I had just been found by my own waifu, the smug one adorned with soft feathers and an electric aura. We took a hot shower, and everypony walked the dinosaur, shit was SO cash.
>>42831446All of them job to Adolf in the end>>42831472Also thisHow is it that m6 variations get shat on for trying to cheat the system, but Spikeniggers doing the same is suddenly OK?
>>42831514It's almost like Mr. /mlp/ is an unserious meme contest and Miss /mlp/ is a seething cesspool of misery.
>>42831206He's literally (You) since you're such a newfag
>>42831509BVLLndon will be SUPERCHARGED by his poochie wife's multiverse-shattering farts, DisKEK never had a chance in this
>>42831516Not an argument. Next year someone came up with "Basedjack Spike" and this autism will never end. Its time to bar non canon versions from the main tournament
>>42831563>Next year someone came up with "Basedjack Spike" and this autism will never endAnd that's a good thing.
>>42831563>Basedjak SpikeShartychads... Next year will be ours...
>>42831472>If OG Spike didn't win already it would have been fair gameHypothetical question: if somehow Chad Spike had won FIRST, would you have any issues with regular Spike winning later?
>>42831705NTA but yes, any iteration of a character winning should count as that character as a whole taking a win and prevent other ones from participating later, even if it includes the OG version. Then blame it on faggots not showing enough support for the original when needed, instead deciding to have a quick stroke of their memeshittery itch.
IRON WILL respects his opponent for being a self-made military stallion and becoming captain of the guard.... but IRON WILL did not achieve his true fame by marrying into royalty! IRON WILL remains a minotaur of the people, of the common man, and does NOT live in a crystal palace with an alicorn wife and alicorn baby, with an alicorn sister and alicorn in-laws to give him his every heart's desire. IRON WILL remains self-made even into his family life, and represents /mlp/ as the hard working men of initiative you are.Vote IRON WILL over that pussy-whipped Shining Armor!
>>42832131Oh, IRON WILL almost forgot this post's slogan:>Just because your wife is hot, doesn't mean you got a shot!Vote IRON WILL
>>42832131He's got my vote.
I really don't fucking care for mr /mlp/ who is this even for

Aforepromised Discord draw.

>>42832183Damn that's actually pretty goodWill give him my vote this round
>>42832183Fantastic draw Anon, he has my vote this round.
>>42832183I want to believe that the petition doesn't say "best male" but actually "best mare".
>>42832183higher effort than anything we got out of miss /mlp/ this yr somehow

>>42832183Sorry, still not changing my vote from Brandon.Now take a *deep* breath.
>>42832299voting discord for total brapfag death
>>42832183Hell yeah, anon! This goes hard. If I hadn't voted for Discord already, this would have convinced me. Also, it's hard to see, but my signature is definitely on his list, and he didn't even need to bait me into signing by promising a goodie bag.
>Used to be Discord was the Rarity of these tournaments, would lose early and to embarrassing opponents like Nicolas Cage or something>Now he's getting crazy momentumHave we finally forgiven him for S9...?
Did /mlp/ turn on Discord because he basically became Fluttershy's love interest or because he was impersonating Grogar?
>>42832746Because the second half of S9 was leaked.
>>42832746I think it's way more the latter, people have had since S3 to get over the former
>>42832746Discord hate is 30% butthurt flutterfags and 70% butthurt gollyfags who make excuses for everything Cozy does while scrutinizing everything Discord does.
>>42832811No Gollyfag who thinks she got anything more than she deserved is a true Gollyfag, and I say this as someone who has busted countless times to her. To wish for redemption for the evil loli is a behaviour to be frowned upon by all true Gollyfags.
>>42832183wowie!
>>42831509Smashin' write-up Discordbro
>>42832811I'm neither of those things and hate that asshole. But I'll freely admit it's due to shit writing when he was "reformed". As a villain he was great.
>don't know security question>can't find the answer because desu is downFuck.
>>42832877I just guessed anon.
>>42832877They're really easy this round aside from maybe the circlejerk one which I could not be bothered to look up properly so Idk if it has a more specific answer.
>>42832923>the circlejerk oneYes that's the one I was stuck on. Don't know nor care about the circlejerk OCs.
>>42832923>>42832942The answer to that one is "YOUR MOM'S BED".
the only reason ppl hate discord outside of s9 finale is the fact that they can't into nuance and have completely black and white worldviews
BEJITA! GIVE ME THE ANWSERS!

Save him for when Aryanne finallly wins Miss /mlp/
Fancy Pants was a based gentleman in Sweet and Elite. It pisses me off that he was characterized as a rich prick the later seasons.
Kevin Nation, how we feelin?
I can't decide!

>>42833577>Only one of them can banish your nightmare-mode Pinkie tulpa thoughAnon, our absent mod banished all ponies, including Pinkie tulpa, to /mlp/
>>42833963And then he banished himself from existence, which is something Jackie Chan tupper cannot (and will not) doI think it's pretty obvious that moot is stronger here
Each match-up has at least one potential Mr /mlp/ollo who'd pair nicely with Pinkie Pie, all thanks to TOTAL CHAOS, I mean, RANDOMIZATION:>Ingram vs Jackie Chan TulpaWith Jackie Chan, we've found the only tulpa capable of defeating that hellish Pinkie tulpa. Although he's a timeless meme, this pageant might be his single best shot at the title. A fun pick! Alas, he's up against the song writer behind many of Ponka's tunes, the musical genius "who never misses". Either contestant would look hilariously bad as trophy, but worthy they are both. >Shining Armor vs DiscordThe Lord of Chaos just so happens to consider Laughter his favorite EoH, and laughter will follow in this fun guy's wake. His own laughter, at least. I'm totally not biased by stressing his original appearance in S2 here, and reminding everyone of pink cotton candy clouds and The Return of Harmony being more of a S1 epilogue than a S2 episode. (It's the last episode to use the S1 animation style and intro, too.) It's also peculiar that Discord's leitmotif was actually Pinkamena's during her Party of One. Shining Armor is a fine soldier and family man. He feels like a surfdude, for better or worse, and would probably be down for some O&O once a month. Not all too much in common with Pinkie, but he's definitely popular by his own nepobaby merits. I'm being courteous and stop here. >Kevin vs SoarinMyyyy piiiiiiie! When Rainbow "Danger" Dash isn't around to save Soarin's apple pies, the Pink One will bake him the best damn pies he's ever had, with AJ's assistance in case of original Apple Family apple pies. Then again, Kevin is a chill drone who's just happy to be there, and Pinkie's parties cultivate more of that very love and merriment he seeks. Both characters are sweet little cinnamon rolls in FiM, but that won't stop the clop. Solid characters, solid picks. >Hitler vs Fancy PantsOh my, the cultish Führer of the Nazi party versus the cultivated host of fancy dinner parties! Hitler is definitely memetic, but he lacks that special, specific connection to MLP and/or /mlp/ (or Pinkie Pie) I'd like to see in a winner. I'm generally a fan of keeping /pol/ out of hobby spaces, too.Fancy Pants, on the other hand, has been part of FiM from early on, and always a pleasure outside of an OOC portrayal. Fancy Pants could be especially sublime by Rarity's side in a future pageant, but I genuinely appreciate that stallion whose heart isn't corrupted by wealth. Where are his pants? Well, their absence has become the fabric for myriad of legends and yarns. Adolf, you dreamt big but you were doomed to fail. Now look what has become of our country...
>>42833846I'd really rather not not.
>>42834219Pinkie canonically lusts after Shining. Let the cute homewrecker have her moment. Cadance is into it anyway.
>>42834246Shining already lost his chance to be paired with his true love.
>Opponent's name is Fancy Pants>Doesn't actually wear pants at allMake one think...
>>42834246>look it up>it's something mentioned in an EQG booklet once and might not even apply to pony PinkieGuess I learnt something new.
>>42834274Pony and human ponka swap around often.
Best male character.Best reformed villain.Best couple.
I can't help but notice all three of the remaining stallions are all very blue/white in their manes and coats, or at least in Soarin's theme his coat is a much lighter shade of blueIs blue the manliest pony color confirmed?
>three stallions>three humans>a draconequus >a changelingnot a bad spread for the finals
Desu is still down. I think we're going to see a spike in rejected responses for this round. Including mine
>>42834408First question is basically a freebie if you don't know that GTFOSecond should be somewhat common knowledge at least if you frequent the boardThird is admittedly bit niche i only learned this last year
>>42834283more like the faggiest because only stallionfags care about mr. /mlp/ everyone else is just in for the memes
>>42834408Chin up Anon, just give it your best guess. I made two wrong guesses last round and my vote was still counted. I was sure I was going to get filtered, too.
>>42834428All questions have been super easy tho, lurking for a year already gets you in all the memest. 2022 newfag
>>42832746I think people slowly realize that S9 isn't a good example to judge characters when everyone was out of character in Haberverse. So people mostly now remember him as the edgy cool dude who is hanging out with a much younger girl. It is the main appeal of Nick and Judy and why people who ship them also shipped Fluttercord
>>42834439DESU Discord has some questionable episodes even outside of S9.Even if it weren't for that I'd still hate S5's "What About Discord" with burning passion, it's just him being an asshole for 22 minutes
>>42833378Who do we have here? Twilight's twinky brother? Well that's going to be entertaining.
>>42834416My problem is I'm a paranoid idiot so I'm second guessing myself because surely the first one can't be that obvious, can it? Even worse for the third one because is it really just a "do you know the character" check or is it a thread meme I don't know?
>>42834442>it's just him being an asshole for 22 minutesIsn't that every Discord episode?
>>42833378Is Rare just Rarity? Or just some meme character?And With Pony Thread Sim we still consider Homer the original creator or is naming his replacements a fair game?
>>42834453I'm not sure if it refer to Rarity nickname or that meme comic where she's a faulty stuffed animal that can't talk properly and call you daring or some shit
>>42834455It's different, usually Discord isn't an outright asshole but more so just having zero frame of reference for how social interactions work because he's an embodiment of chaos and is only recently learning how you act around people. "Keep New Friends but Keep Discord" he's scared of losing Fluttershy as a friend and is just reacting poorly, Dungeons and Discords he's has a problem with perceptions in thinking Spike/Big Mac want to hang out with HIM and not the other way around, and both usually at least have Discord realizing the errors of his ways by the end.What About Discord there is just really no reason for him to act like this other than just being outright mean to Twilight just cause. You can argue he also acts the same way in Three's a Crowd but at least then you can argue he was only just '''reformed''' and hadn't committed yet like he would after the S4 finale.
I feel like they were initially going to introduce Scorpan and Tirek together and have Scorpan turn to the good side like in the old special, but Discord ended up being popular enough that they gave him the redemption arc when Tirek appears and Scorpan would have felt redundant. It's too bad they couldn't fit him into the story anywhere, and that Grogar ended up being nothing.
>>42834458bootleg pony
>>42834503thanks, i fixed it from "darling" to "dining", it feels like its too tricky as its was a specific meme for rarafags only, by this point we may as well add G5 security questions
>>42834416Really? I agree that the first question is a freebie, but I found the second question the hardest. It must be because I never engage with that sort of thing. I've never had any interest at all in Pony Thread Simulator. The third is definitely a board thing. The screencap gets reposted regularly enough that you should know it if you've been around for a while.
>>428344081. Damaged goods2. 15.ai3. Honeybunny
>>42834552Everyone suggest this guy your favourite songs from the based green musician.I'll start with PTS- Made For Me. That should be a good introduction.
>>42833527He was never really characterized as a prick.
>>42834442>Even if it weren't for that I'd still hate S5's "What About Discord" with burning passion, it's just him being an asshole for 22 minutesIt's Discord subtly gaslighting Twilight for... well, not 22 minutes because he gets his just desserts at the end, but the majority of it. It's one of the more underappreciated episodes of the show since Discord is at some of his most impressively manipulative there as he manages to cause discord without technically doing anything illegal.
>>42834752the finest mental gymnastics in the world can't make that episode sound goodDiscord a shit
>>42834771I don't know, I always thought it was interesting and kinda psychological. I never really got the hate for it. I like how it puts the viewer in Twilight's shoes too, since neither her nor the viewer saw the weekend Discord spent with her friends and are left guessing whether Twilight might be right and if Discord really did put everyone under a spell until the last minutes. That's clever, I think.
>>42834771>it's bad writing when the reformed villain does evil stuff But when Glimmer does it you coom buckets huh
>>42834787>I like how it puts the viewer in Twilight's shoes tooThat's the entire problem. It's 20 minutes of inside jokes the viewer isn't in on. It's boring, it's awkward, it's dumb. One of the absolute worst.
>>42834870>media should only ever make you feels good and all media that makes you feel any emotion other than good ones is bad
>>42834794no thats shit too
where is it
Why the fuck is the timer going so late??It was three hours earlier not long ago.
>>42834794Hear me out: Glimglam is a mare, and she's hot. Discord is not!
>>42835508>discord isn’t hotBoth I and Fluttershy disagree.
>>42835506It happens every year, Mr. /mlp/ just keeps starting later and later with each round
>>42835506Unfortunate timing with Thanksgiving plans necessitated an hour being put on yesterday, but in general the time between a round ending and the next round starting have been greater this year due to Total Randomization.Usually in a tournament I can get started on the next form ahead of time, as many match-ups are pretty much decided early on and I can get an head start on the next form filling in the names and images ahead of time so when the round ends, there aren't as many to updates or changes before starting the next round. With Total Randomization however, we cannot know the match-ups at all until after the round has already ended and we shuffle things up. In this case I can only start on the next form after the previous round has ended (for both the main bracket and the Mini-Brackets) which leads to a much longer delay to the next round doing all of it at once. Alternatively I could set the timer to be less than 24 hours later so it ends earlier, but I prefer to have a full 24 hours for anons to vote.However, being we're down to our last few dozen matches there should not be much more delays to the timer for the remaining two rounds. Only one hour remains until the Quarterfinals come to a close!Quarterfinals Poll: https://forms.gle/TLaqFmtDbFbFVWfy8Time until Quarterfinals complete: https://countingdownto.com/countdown-pages/CFr7rbiu
>>42835506[rigging in process]>>42834787I have mixed feelings about the episode because I really would have loved to watch my dear Discord bond with the M6 ON-screen, but instead it focuses heavily on the outsider's perception of silly inside jokes. The cringiness doesn't bother me per se because I enjoy cringe like a fine wine, but it overshadows the finesse with which he expertly manipulates his friends and tormented Twilight for a few days. Discord scientifically BTFO'ing Twilight on basis of the observer effect is *chef's kiss*, and it's a pity he was dumbed down as the show went on. Underneath an awkward episode with wonky facial expressions, there is an intriguing and mature Discord who pushes all the right buttons for a psychologist and Discordfag like me. He's an asshole but I love him.

Underneath an awkward episode with wonky facial expressions, there is an intriguing and mature Discord who pushes all the right buttons for a psychologist and Discordfag like me. He's an asshole but I love him.I can agree with that. If you're interested, there was a fanfiction written where Discord and Twilight reflect on the events of the episode, which adds some interesting aspects to Discord's motivations, particularly him feeling that Twilight might be preventing him from forming closer bonds with her friends. It's pretty well-written and introspective.https://www.fimfiction.net/story/301602/what-about-twilight

>>42835754Adolf Hitler's led his voters to an outstanding march, but alas the Fourth Reich is a dream that'll have to wait as a certain dapper unicorn blocks his advance.

>>42835704>What About TwilightAll this time in the fandom, I've been mostly avoiding fanfiction. But I do make exceptions, and I thank you for the link, for it was a satisfying read at 15k words. Really feels like "my" Discord. Him being a bit frustrating to deal with is essential to the character, and it's probably why my love for him is so enduring, too. He's slippery, conflicted, a walking contradiction. Paradoxical in how he combines playfulness and pride, unique wisdom and obliviousness. He's simultaneously intelligent and dumb, and naturally entertaining in either mode. I love him because I love him, not because I want to be coddled and loved. Therefore, any frustration this love has brought me is less of a turn-off and more of a confirmation that I am dealing with the vivacious Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony in the flesh, Discord. The Mr /mlp/ollo pageant always has me torn, for as much as I want Discord's amazing qualities to be acknowledged and cast in solid gold, there's joy and excitement in the chase. Every time he concedes, he gets to haunt another tournament, gatekeeping those undeserving, and allowing me to shitpost in discordian spirit - with that little bit of self-sabotage and appreciation for all contestants strewn into my arguments for Discord. Whether that makes it less manipulative, or more, I have not been able to discern, but at least it is >fun. And I will keep voting for Discord, just to see what hilarity might ensue, and accepting all consequences.
I can't decide whether Discord or Brandon is the most powerfull. Someone help

And at last the Semifinals have come to their conclusion! A total of 111 votes were cast this round, not including 8 which were needing to be removed due to failing verification, and at last we have our finalists for Mr. /mlp/ 2025.First, however, we acknowledge the winners of 8th through 5th places in 2025. This year your penultimate four placements are...
>>42839212It was a very tight race for 5th place, but at an accumulated 298 points our royal prince and captain of the guard SHINING ARMOR will take 5th this year! Very close behind him at 290 is the high-flyin', pie-loving Soarin' over the Wonderbolts in 6th, and in 7th with 285 points is your last defense against tulpas gone AWOL, the Jackie Chan Tulpa. Bringing up the rear with 223 is Adolf Hitler as this year's 8th, a still fine and respectable placement in this contest for the Fuhrer. Now, our winner of the first match and your first finalist this year. Either candidate would be entering the Finals for the first time on this vote, and this was the larger over the two wins at 64%. Your first finalist for 2025 shall be...
>>42839220lol Hitler got cucked
>>42839220Kevin seems like a pretty laid back changeling drone, but the master of mayhem came calling for a bit more bedlam to be introduced to this year's finals. Making his Finals debut will be none other than DISCORD at 71 to 40!And now, his opponent. The closer of the two matches at 56.8%, Discord's opponent vying for the Mr. /mlp/ollo crown this year shall be...
...Kevin!
>>42839226Not surprising
Kevin nation...
>>42839226Fancy Pants is the portrait of high society and dignity, but let's hope he's as gracious in defeat as he is in all other aspects because in this bout it is renowned music man DANIEL INGRAM who will be honored with a return to the Finals at 63 to 48!Please await the Finals poll which should be open shortly!Semifinals Results: https://forms.gle/rcuLRfPTZQVEUVat7
I really don’t know who it’ll be this year. Daniel and Discord are both strong contenders.
The time has finally come. We are down to but only two, and just one will walk away from this contest with their head held high as Mr. /mlp/ 2025!>From the top bracket, he's one of the earliest and most renowned villains in Friendship is Magic. An all-powerful chimerical being of entropy, antithesis to the harmony that defines Equestria, who for millennia proved a most cunning, manipulative, and devious foe for Princesses and Element-bearers alike. Yet despite his cataclysmic mischief, this reality-warping draconequus still lacked for something he would slowly come to realize he truly desired most of all. Voiced by the impeccable talents of John de Lancie, it's the Lord of Chaos and Spirit of Disharmony, DISCORD!>From the bottom bracket, once again making his return to the Finals, the lyrical genius behind the unforgettable melodies that is the Friendship is Magic's long list of outstanding musical numbers. For over a full decade across hundreds of episodes, spinoffs, movies, specials, and shorts, he's captivated the many hearts of the fandom for his vast collection of insanely catchy, inspirational, and moving songs. He's the main composer, songwriter, and lyricist of the show, acknowledged and awarded several times over for his legendary repertoire, it's none other than DANIEL LUKE INGRAM!Who deserves to be this year's victor and prince of the board? Decide below! And do not forget to vote on who you think deserves the Bronze Medal as well for Kevin and Fancy Pants have one last chance to claim the 3rd place spot. And at last, the winners of this year's six Mini-Brackets shall be decided along with the final set of votes for this year's Royal Round Robin.

Daniel Ingram vs. Fancy Pants ( 56.8 - 43.2 )5 vs 3 removed, would have widened gap>Best MemeThe Burdened vs. The First One ( 56.1 - 43.9 )6 vs 2 removed, would have widened gapJackie Chan Tulpa vs. Chad Spike ( 52.8 - 47.2 )4 vs 4 removed, no change>Most Cuddleable(You) vs. Prince Artemis ( 51.9 - 48.1 )4 vs 3 removed, would have widened gapButterscotch vs. Button Mash ( 54.9 - 45.1 )2 vs 5 removed, narrows gap but not enough>Best VillainDr. Eggman vs. Lord Tirek ( 53.8 - 46.2 )3 vs 4 removed, narrows gap but not enough(You) vs. King Sombra ( 52.4 - 47.6 )1 vs 5 removed, narrows gap but not enough>Best FatherIgneous Rock Pie vs. Cheese Sandwich ( 59.4 - 40.6 )3 vs 4 removed, narrows gap but not enoughShining Armor vs. Mr. Cake ( 53.3 - 46.7 )6 vs 1 removed, would have widened gap>Most PowerfulBrandon the Brony Pony vs. Discord ( 51.9 - 48.1 )2 vs 5 removed, narrows gap but not enoughJackie Chan Tulpa vs. Chad Spike ( 61 - 39 )3 vs 4 removed, narrows gap but not enough>Best ColtPistachio vs. Sunburst ( 53.8 - 46.2 )3 vs 4 removed, narrows gap but not enoughPipsqueak vs. Featherweight ( 61.5 - 38.5 )5 vs 2 removed, would have widened gap>The biggest win of the round, including the Mini-Brackets, goes to Discord with his 64% win over Kevin, 71 to 40>The biggest win in the Mini-Brackets was Pipsqueak's win in Best Colt, coming out 61.5% over Featherweight 64 to 40>The narrower win goes to Daniel Ingram's 56.8% win over Fancy Pants, 63 to 48>The narrowest win in the round overall is a tie for (You) in Most Cuddleable and Brandon the Brony Pony in Most Powerful, both coming out ahead of Prince Artemis and Discord respectively at only 51.9% and 4 votes ahead.>In both our Semifinal matches the higher Seed bested the lower Seed, Seed 1 Daniel Ingram and Seed 22 Discord coming out over Seed 15 Fancy Pants and Seed 35 Kevin.>This marks Discord first entry into the Finals of Mr. /mlp/, his previous best being 8th in 2024. Discord is only the second character from the actual show to make it this far in Mr. /mlp/, the only previous one being Spike who also faced off against Daniel Ingram in the Finals of Mr. /mlp/ 2023>This marks Daniel Ingram's third time entering the Finals, the most of any contestant in either Miss /mlp/ or Mr. /mlp/ to make it this far. This also marks only the fifth time a Seed 1 has made it as far as the Finals, and two of those other times was also Daniel Ingram who was Seed 1 both his previous runs. The other two instances are M.A. Larson in 2020 and Derpy in 2021.>At Seed 22, Discord is the lowest Seed of Daniel Ingram's Final opponents; 15 was (coincidentally) Seed 15 and Spike was Seed 11
Seeds this, seeds that, I believe in sowing the seeds of Discord, if anything. >>42839490The wage cage claims me today (and tomorrow), so I can't promise a drawing.With Ingram in the finals, we could post songs from the series and by fans to drum up that hype:https://youtube.com/watch?v=qufiNrMJbDshttps://youtube.com/watch?v=svyod3xhs0w>captcha: HJ W0NWho is HJ? Hitler Jugend?
>>42839594>HJ>Huge Jerkdiscord confirmed
>>42839533>This marks Daniel Ingram's third time entering the FinalsCome on /mlp/, just give it to him already
>>42839670Nah
>>42839670Sorry anon, we've long since entered the dark times where even Ingram gets shat on despite being the only consistently good thing throughout the show and his songs even make barbieshit somewhat tolerable, at least in audio-only mode
>>42839670It would be funnier if he keeps getting to the finals but never wins like Bradley Cooper.
>>42839670I think he's got this. No one really likes Discord.
>>42839670>>42839533This is what it comes down to for me. Making it to the Finals only to lose three times would be humiliating and Ingram certainly deserves better. Discord I'm sure can make it back to the Finals another year, he and his fans have shown they got the gumption
>>42839260Reminder that Art of the Dress is just a cover and he didn't make it by his own. I say Discord deserve a win for being a Chad
>>42839670Now that Discord lost "most powerfull" he is only able to win the main thing. I will vote for KING of CHAOS, not some mere human bard
>>42840300AotD isn't even in Ingrams top 20 songs.
>>42840300I doubt they could have gotten away with their relationship if they were both humanoids since Discord appears so much older, even if it's not explicitly a romance.
>>42840330It was the main reason why they never made him a character in Equestria Girls and just settled with a plushie cameo. There would be no way to turn him into a teen as De Lancie doesn't have that range and making him a teased love interest of Fluttershy while he's an older man would make soccer moms nuke the show like they tried with Derpy
>>42840339which is ironic as now entire internet want Judy and Nick together even if there's a 10 year old age gap between them
>>42840344Well that's a little different since Judy is an adult in her 20s whereas the human versions of the ponies are in high school, even if they're supposed to be older as ponies.
>>42840339Or they could not be retarded and put Discord into EqG without having him interact with Fluttershy, it's not like she's the only character in existence he can talk to.
>>42840388Equestria Girls was released AFTER keep calm and flutter on which started entire Discoshy mania. There would be no way to ignore it.
>>42840399There were plenty of episodes where they ignored it and Discord had little to no interaction with Fluttershy.>Three's A Crowd>What About Discord>Dungeons and Discords>Celestial Advice>A Matter of Principals>The Big Mac Question
Note how Ingram doesn't even really need a campaign. He's THAT powerful.

Is she gonna suck him off? Am I gonna have to get in the cuck chair again?
>>42840746I like how both finalists feel like a good fit for Pinkie no matter who winsPonk is the most musical of the Mane 6, sings impromptu more often than anyone and Ingram is the guy writing many of her songsDiscord would obviously match pinkie in terms of chaotic antics and doing things for fun, and Laughter is his favorite element

This year it is none other than Seed 66, SOARIN'! In every one of his matches, Soarin' faced a higher placed Seed between Seed 36 Mr. Cake, Seed 25 PageantAnon, Seed 24 Flim, and Seed 14 Chad Spike. For his accomplishments in beating the odds, we acknowledge Soarin'!Next, the winner of this year's Royal Round Robin. After fifteen match-ups, here are this year's results for who stands at the peak of our past princes...
I can never remember what these percentages mean

After a successful victory last year, absolute madman M.A. Larson holds on to the throne as Mr. /mlp/ of Mr. /mlp/'s, following up on his sweep from last year with a follow-up performance of five wins and zero losses! Next, we have the winner of our six Mini-Bracket categories! The final winners of each of our subcategories are...
>>42842245>the 2021 winner ages the worstAs usual, this seems to be the constant across all tournaments on all boards.
THE TENSION
THE RIGGING
THE DICKING
>>42842245>Best MemeIt was a tough call, but it seems the looming threat of schizophrenia officially weighs less than the collective sins of the fandom. THE BURDENED carries that weight to victory as he takes the win for Best Meme over Jackie Chan Tulpa at a mere 50.9%, the closest of the Mini-Brackets results.>Most CuddleableI'm sure (You) think (You) are all warm and snugly, anons, but when it came down to it there's one buttery stallion everyone would rather cuddle up to. Fluttershy's genderbent alter-ego BUTTERSCOTCH takes the reward for Most Cuddleable this year at 62.5% of the vote.>Best VillainAlas, Eggman will be remembered on /mlp/ but not as Best Villain, as the bad doctor's plans are thwarted by... (YOU)! Yes, I hope you're happy with yourselves, look in the mirror you rogues and see this year's Best Villains as (You) take the Best Villain mini-bracket over Dr. Eggman at 54.4%>Best FatherShining Armor proves he can handle a lot when it comes to dealing with his powerful alicorn daughter, but this old-fashioned rock farmer's shown he can handle raising FOUR lovely Pie Sisters. The proud papa of this year's Miss /mlp/ IGNEOUS ROCK PIE takes the reward for Best Father at 54%>Most PowerfulHe don't want no trabble, but Jackie Chan Tulpa had some in the finals of both his Mini-Brackets, as even fully equipped with a ladder and baby he couldn't deal with the man, the myth, the autistic legend... all kneel as BRANDON THE BRONY PONY overpowers the competition and is 2025's MOST POWERFUL with 56.1%!>Best ColtBoth our young lads are favorites of mares voiced by Tabitha St. Germain, but the cute innocent teeny tiny spotted colt from Trottingham has won the hearts of voters over the aspiring fashionista. PIPSQUEAK is this year's Best Colt with 59.8% of the vote!Now, we have the winner of our Bronze Medal match. In the Bronze Medal match, the outcome was the wider of our two main matches this round decided at 55.7%. The winner of Mr. /mlp/ 2025's bronze match is...
>>42842245>6. 15: 0Yikes
>>42842259>(You) cannot be the most cuddleable but can be the best villainRealistic
>>42842259It's official: this laid back little bug has been given the Fancy Pants seal of approval and is henceforth welcome in high society! Yes, KEVIN wins this year's 3rd place match, earning him his highest spot in Mr. /mlp/ to date over his previous 4th Place record in 2023! And a loud round of applause for his opponent as well, as 4th place is certainly no mean feat and is Fancy Pant's best performance to date as well. And now, we come to our conclusion. The results of the Finals between Discord and Daniel Ingram. This was the closest of the two main matches this round, decided by a mere 5 votes and only 52.2% total margin. Your Mr. /mlp/ 2025 is none other than...
>>42842245>6. 15: 0>5. Spike: 1 (15)Not a single win and even Spike beat him out, yeesh.

>>42842269https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaUG7gSHgdMThere are countless qualities that go into making My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic into such a memorable show. Its writing, setting, characters, but one aspect that stands out in particular is its music. Catchy songs and musical numbers were a frequent and beloved element of every season, and at the helm of the crew's music department was a man who defined the soundtrack of the show. In total, his contributions number over 80 songs composed and written for nine seasons of Friendship is Magic alongside two specials, the Equestria Girls films and its music videos, and even a fully orchestrated feature-length Movie. His melodies range from light-hearted bops to moving arias, with every emotional heart-string sure to be tugged. He's been acknowledged for his stunning performance with nominations and awards including the Leo and Daytime Emmies, but now it is time for him to receive one more accolade to his remarkable career: this day turned out to be perfect and it's his best night ever, it's your Mr. /mlp/ 2025 is none other than the maestro himself, DANIEL LUKE INGRAM!!!A loud cheer for Daniel Ingram on this year's victory! And of course, a loud round of applause for his chaotic, unpredictable opponent DISCORD on taking the Silver Medal home as well: the embodiment of chaos and all things topsy turvy performed more than admirably this year, proving a close match even for the maestro he faced and 2nd place is his best performance in the history of Mr. /mlp/. And as Daniel Ingram himself is living proof, runner-ups in Mr. /mlp/ tend to go the distance sooner or later...As always: thank you all for participating in Mr. /mlp/ and making this contest what it is. One last cheer for Mr. /mlp/ 2025, DANIEL INGRAM!
>>42842286Ingrambros we did it

>>42842298Yeah really my only regret is that Ponk and Discord winning in the same year would've been absolutely peak, otherwise this is a fuckin' rad win. Dude made the Smile Song anyways so it's like, it still works great.

>But Discord's gonna come back in two years and dominate with no Ingram to stop him anymoreIt's literally anyone's game now that Ingram's outHe was by far the heaviest hitter left I think, with him gone I genuinely couldn't tell you who has best shot left. Discord actually impressed this year his fans came to fucking play
>>42842307CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER HOW HARD I'M JAMMIN' TO THE SMILE SONG RIGHT NOW BESTIE SORRY
>>42842305>>42842289Even deeper than the Smile Song: the first song Daniel Ingram ever demo'd for FIM was the "Giggle at the Ghosties" song, Pinkie's first song AND the first song of FiM (outside of the intro)Ingram's work on MLP literally started with Ponk
fucking goat

The two closest were coincidentally both of Daniel Ingram's earlier Finals, Spike only won by 4 votes and 15 by 3 votes.

The poll will run for either a few days or until the thread hits bump limit, whichever should happen first, so open the form below to vote one last time comparing Ingram to the rest of the board royalty between his six fellow princes and his matching princess.Post-Pageant Questionaire Poll: https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9

>>42842265>>42842270Ingram should have won it that year over 15. /mlp/ has shit opinions
>>42842406I have no issues with 'You had to be there' winners, but 15 certainly is one. AI was new and huge at the time and 15 was at the forefront of it.
>>42842391Discord learned to be a better man.
>>42842390Ha! Get fucked, Discord!
>>42842418...after he had to watch Daniel BVLLgram run a victory train on Fluttershy
another year of mr /mlp/ not being a pony
>>42842390Eggbros... is he really bound to never win anywhere?
>>42842528It's funny that way
>>42842286
>>42842286Deserved and overdue for BASED INGRAM
>>42842259>Pipsqueak we all know why he won best colt
>>42842669giwtwm
boring result
>>42842286Discordbros....they rigged it like they rigged it for Fluttershy in Miss/mlp
>There, there, Discord.. >You’ll get another chance in 2027..>Maybe we’ll both win that year, wouldn’t that be fun?>That’s right.. *mwah* >Who’s my big, brave draconequus?>Yep, it’s you! *giggles*>You know.. you’re MY Mr. /mlp/ every year..
>>42842711This site will be nuked before 2027 mr MLP or peagant anon dies of AIDS
>>42842711
Ah, well, maybe next year- oh, right.
Ingram didn't even need a campaign, kek.
My favorite did not win this year, but he's put on a good show and got his best result yet. Daniel Ingram was Seed #1 for a good reason: His music has made FiM what it is, at the end of the day. So if 4chan doesn't die before Fall 2027, I'll be back to champion the complicated, chaotic kook who once fooled the public into believing Draconequi were actual, obscure mythological beasts because he's just that good. >>42842290I had actually flipped a Discord-styled coin before going to bed in order to divine the results, and the coin vehemently told me that my Noodle would fucking job at the last minute. What a silly Noodle.
BRAVO INGRAM
Discordkeks, our response?
Discordlords, our treatise?
I love Discord, but I also love Ingram for the amount of joy and whimsy he's brought to the show and the the fandom. Those moments of getting excited when Winter Wrap Up comes on is all because of Ingram. I would have been happy with either result, but I'm glad it was Ingram.
>>42842810>>42842804My response is that Ingram was a good opponent and if we had to lose to anyone, I’m glad it was him and not some fotm meme. Discord will have his time, as will Fluttershy.
>>42842804What could they possibly say besides Yabba Dabba Doo?
>>42842269KEVIN NATION, WE DID IT
>>42842898>Discord makes /dbs/ tourists seetheHe deserves to win 2027 for that alone
>>42842898/dbs/ memes get worse and more ESL every year.
>>42842760Ingram had made it to Finals twice already and people were eager to see him win, I think that's even stronger than a campaign>>42842769Rough luck on your fav not winning but I've said above I am really impressed with how Discord's voters pushed for him this year, 2nd place is still really good especially considering how he used to do. Will have my vote next time he gets to participate
Daniel if he pone.
>>42842312>with him gone I genuinely couldn't tell you who has best shot leftIt's Anonymous
>>42843430>brownnot colorful enoughhe should be Winter Wrap Up colored
>>42843430would
I understand why Ingram doesn't need a campaign to win, but not seeing anyone show up to party, either... that's a bit rough.
>>42844031Mr. /mlp/ doesn't really draw a big crowd in general, and I think everyone is just content with Ingram winning. It's well deserved but also really predictable
>>42842390>6. 15: 0OOF
>literally made to combat pinkie pie.exehow the fuk did he lose to brandon
Who would win, this guy or Brandon?
>>42842769I admire your love for Discord and I wish I had that kind of love for my waifu
It's appropriate that he won for 2025 since this is the year he turned 50. It's crazy that he was about as old as I am now when the show premiered.
>>42844374>tfw also the same age as Ingram now when he first started on the show>tfw I haven't accomplished a fraction of what he didI didn't come in expecting to hurt bros

>>42844725Ingram and Ponk are a match made in heaven
>>42844529Not many people will achieve the same that Ingram has. A generational talent.
>>42844090BRAPndon was charged with Poochie's flatulence, which is known to dissolve even incorporeal beings, subconscious ones included.
Are there any good non-meme male characters from fan made stuff? All of the most high-quality fan material that comes to mind focuses on the main cast.
>>42844952None that I'd think would make it that far in the tourney due to obscurity but I'm sure they're out there. Frankly I would think Calamity/Murky would do better but I think FOE has stigma to itDr. Whooves is a show stallion but is the male equivalent to Derpy in terms of getting the most love in fan related stuff, I always think he's gonna win one of these years but he frequently loses out to guys I personally think he should be able to beat
>>42842328Aw really? That's awesome! Yeah, that's perfect then.
>>42844952He's basically a self-insert and I guess it depends on if you consider him a meme or not but Red from Banned from Equestria (Daily) is a cool fuckin dude
>>42845046Dr Whooves is never gonna win because Dr Who isn't popular anymore, especially on 4chan. It's one of those properties that used to be cool to like on here but now are shameful to like on here due to the growing culture war division.
>>42845251Crazy how a lot of those cultural juggernauts like Dr. Who didn't survive like MLP did. I remember that shit being all over Tumblr.
>>42845557The quality really dipped after the 3rd/4th season, but then so did MLP so who knows?
>>42845562>>42845557>>42845251Dr. Who was never good. He starts with a time machine and a magic pen that fixes all his problems. The show became popular because British television didn't offer good options for sci fi so the practical effects were appreciated. Also women are attracted to Dr. Who, I wouldn't know why.
Missed a chance to post yesterday but I made an Elite 8 image to go for Ingram this year, congrats!
>>42845562The quality didn't just dip for the last seasons of Who. They absolutely murdered it with woke. And note that I don't mean the typical>they put a black guy in itwoke. I mean they took every single aspect and made it as lame and literally gay as possible. It was so bad even normalfags stopped watching and now it's dead.
>>42845701Nice
So Scorpan can still get nominated next year, right? /ourguy/ deserves a win.
>>42845701fitting quote
>>42845997Scorpan got Top 10 this year, that's pretty damn good
What are the odds for hasjew to hire Ingram for G^?
Reminder that the Post-Pageant Questionnaire poll is still open if you want to provide any feedback on Mr. /mlp/ollo 2025, as well as vote on our Exhibition matches featuring our newest prince Daniel Ingram going up against his predecessors and this year's Miss, Pinkie. I intend to close the poll around mid-day tomorrow so any last calls, vote now:Post-Pageant Questionaire Poll: https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9https://forms.gle/BzJ1Z4HQDV23zRGC9
>>42846409Judging Hasbro's track record of making terrible mistakes, not a chance. Besides, Ingram is already working on other projects.
>>42846002Thanks, I thought it sounded really nice. I wasn't aware of any particular well known Daniel Ingram quotes but found a 2017 interview (I'm guessing for the movie) where they asked if there's any philosophies he lives by, and that sounded really good for the image.There was another quote of his I liked though but thought it was too long to work into the image I figure I could share:>If you want to be a composer, don’t just study music. You need to know about everything… poetry, art, architecture, theatre, film, history. A composer can’t exist in a vacuum. Travel often. Read constantly. Embrace everything with curiosity. >*If you live fully and fill yourself with more influences than you can possibly understand, then you’ll be equipped to start writing meaningful music.*
>>42847163This man was vastly overqualified for making music for horse cartoon
>>42847163>A composer can’t exist in a vacuum. Travel often. Read constantly. Embrace everything with curiosity. A credo not just for composers, but artists in general. You did a great job on >>42845701. >>42845997I'd love to see Scorpan have another good run next year.
>>42847163That quote sounds like he's a natural, so inspiration is more important than studying music.I wish I could express things through music like that.
>>42845701Great job.
bump
>>42846857>Ingram is already working on other projects.I hope he's eating wellWhat's ingram up to these days?
>>42848913He's the main composer for a game called Billie Bust Up, some furry rhythm platformer. He still continues to work on little kid shows making music.
>>42849069Oh really? I haven't played it but I've heard of it and it has full songs that you play along with.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax2nJkyhACs
>>42849137It's not out yet btw, but they've posted some of the songs and stages. I'll check it out when it releases.https://store.steampowered.com/app/1400830/Billie_Bust_Up/
The Post-Pageant Questionnaire will remain open to allow for any more feedback, but at this point I haven't gotten any new responses in quite a while so I think now is a good time to reveal the results as they are.>Total RandomizationAt 42.6% disapproval and 25.5% mixed, ultimately it seems Total Randomization was more miss than hit with voters. Supporters enjoyed the chaos and unpredictability of random match-ups but the downsides were that the lack of a clear line of where competitors would go would make it hard to build up hype for the next match-up when there's no way of knowing who they'll go against next. There is also the pointed issue of the delay between rounds due to the forms only able to be started on after the randomizations were completed at the end of each round, and some disagreement on how effective the Total Randomization would be at preventing meta-gaming of the match-ups. We gave it a try to see how it would do, but it is looking like Total Randomization may not see use again after 2025. >Choice of the other three formatsBy a solid 52.3% majority against the other two, the Loser's Bracket / Double Elimination format has won out in being the next most interested format to try, fitting as it also came second in the initial poll in Qualifier of the original four to choose from. While it is obviously too late to try it for Mr., if anons are interested I can still present it as an option in the Preliminary poll ahead of Miss /mlp/ next year to see if they'd be interested in trying it out then, otherwise we can make sure Mr. of next year will be another chance to try it.>Mini-Bracket CooldownBy a 60.4% margin, anons prefer not to introduce any sort of cool-down for Mini-Brackets if they should be used. There were comments about Mini-Brackets becoming a bit too samey with the same Mini-Brackets seeming to used consistently year to year with little variety, but others pointed out that the pool of Mini-Brackets is somewhat small in general so if some were to be excluded due to being used in the previous year, there may be a shortage. There are disagreements but at the very least it's shown a majority would prefer, even if some are being used year to year, they still want the option to vote on them.
>>42849155>Hiding the results of the RRRBy a 65.6% approval and only 22.% mixed, it seems the choice to hide the results of the Royal Round Robin rounds until the very end was a well received choice. There are some comments about wanting to comment on them earlier throughout the tourney, but others note it seems to accomplish it's original goal of preventing gaming matches and making the finale more of a surprise not knowing who's in the lead.>Resolving TiesBy a solid 76.1%, the approved method of resolving ties continues to be allowing both contestants to progress. Many comment they enjoy the chaos of three-way rounds and would prefer to keep it this way going forward. In the preliminary this same question was met with, ironically, a tie in and of itself as to allow both to progress or settle the tie via discarded votes but it seems to have swung in this direction.>Continue Mr. /mlp/ next yearBy a decent 54.5% majority anons would prefer to keep voting on Mr. /mlp/ next year. I do not think it is a stretch to say Mr. is the least popular of our two tourneys, and over the years suggestions occasionally come up for trying something new in its place, even if just for a year. The most popular suggestion of these by far in the comments are a Couples or Tag-Team tourney wherein two characters are treated as a single competitor and it's a tournament of pairs, which seems to have a decent amount of interest. I will ask this question again next year in the Preliminary to see in advance if people would like to try a different tourney in Mr.'s place just for a change of pace, or if anons are interested perhaps a lighter year in general wherein Miss/Mr. both take a break to allow for a big Couples/Tag-Team tournament.
>>42849159And now, the results of our exhibition matches pitting this year's winner Daniel Ingram against his fellow board royalty...>Mr. /mlp/ 2019 vs 2025It looks like Dan is going to be taking up a whole new vendetta against music, as Daniel Ingram leaves our very first Mr. /mlp/ in the dust with 70.3% of the vote! Dan has a solid track record in these exit polls, and thus far only show staff Larson and Ingram have been able to best him.>Mr. /mlp/ 2020 vs 2025Speaking of! In a pitched match between our two staff-members, in a close match between beloved writer and composer, local mad lad Larson's wings are clipped and Daniel takes the win at 56.8%! Larson thus far has been undefeated in the exit polls until now, Ingram being the one to break his record.>Mr. /mlp/ 2021 vs 202515's work on pony AI voice synthesis helped inspire an entire genre of pony music in and of itself, but there's just no competing with the OG maestro as Ingram wins on a staggering 83.8% margin on this 2021 Finals rematch.>Mr. /mlp/ 2022 vs 2025Nothing may bring old King Haggard any sort of joy now save his precious unicorns, but perhaps he'd change his tune if he saw them dancing to some of Ingram's. Ingram takes the win over The Last Unicorn's antagonist with 67.6% of the vote.>Mr. /mlp/ 2023 vs 2025In yet another rematch from a year where Ingram nearly took the crown against a show character, this year's prince comes back with a vengeance against Twilight's number one assistant and takes the win over Spike the Dragon at a 73% margin>Mr. /mlp/ 2024 vs 2025Finally, in a match up against the controversial star player of the 4cc, this time it's >rape getting it from behind as Daniel Ingram scores his final goal in this gauntlet and takes >rape at 70.3%. This gives Daniel Ingram a clean sweep against ALL his predecessors in Mr. /mlp/, a feat only replicated once by Derpy in 2024 as the Miss /mlp/ of that year. But can he continue his streak against his female counterpart...?>Miss /mlp/ 2025 vs Mr. /mlp/ 2025This was by far the closest match of them all, decided by only one single vote, but in the end by a 51.4% margin it seems the singiest, dittiest, smile-loving PINKIE PIE will put an end to her composer's win streak. For the record however, to date NO Mr. /mlp/ has ever beat their Miss /mlp/ counterpart in these Post-Pageant contests, but at only 1 vote Ingram came far closer than any other before him.
>>42849163That 1 vote for Pinkie?ME

>>42847402>overqualifiedYou're not overqualified for jack shit in the world of art. People are allowed to put in the most effort into their art. It doesn't matter how ridiculous or simple the subject seems; you can never be too passionate, too time-investing, or too talented to do what you love. I hate this zoomerism.
>>42849583>saying people are overqualified is a zoomerismdon't you have clouds to yell at?

>>42851062just ask rainbow dash for more clouds
How the fuck did Spike won? He doesn't even get threads and is considered a pathethic joke of a character. Chad Spike would make more sense to win instead, let alone Discord the actual canon Chad
>>42851253IMO it was the novelty of a show character actually making it to the finals. Put that in perspective, with Miss it's a given most of the strongest characters are going to be girls from the actual show but in Mr it's the exact opposite, showrunners or fans or even characters from entirely different cartoons have better shots. And of all the male characters to make it, it being Spike felt extra appropriate as the most significant male character since S1, especially because Twilight also won Miss that year so it was like a perfect pairing. IMO it was deserved but it just sucks it had to be Ingram getting screwed over, glad he finally got his win this year.
>>42851253>is considered a pathethic joke of a characterSpike is a faggotbut he is OUR faggot
>>42851253He's the closest thing to a male protagonist in G4, so he was bound to win.
It's a shame that G5 ended up being so mediocre. I liked that they had a male as one of the main characters.
>>42851298legendary bag fumble from hasbro
>try changes in unpopular contest that less than half of people care enough to votebad idea
>>42852245>People vote on total randomness for Miss without experiencing first hand in the smaller contest>the outrage seen here is multiplied several times over when people realize it sucksworse idea
>>42852722>the outrage is no hype (?) and comes from a minority that doesn't actually represent anyone that participates in miss /mlp/>people that voted for total randomization will not be able to experience it because they didn't care about an unpopular contest>we will never truly know if total randomization works to stop/hinder the strategic voting and rigging or at least make it easier to call out and we are stuck again with a system that we know is corruped and a complete failure and easy to exploitretarded idea
When we do these kind of votes to change shit and there's more than one choice, can we please do ranked voting? I, and I'm sure most other people, would've rather had any of the other three systems as a second choice than total randomization.
>strategic voters seething at an actually good voting systemThis is how you know total randomization worked. Stay mad.
>>42851298Hitch and Sprout both made it to Elite 8 the year G5 came out and the year after but haven't made it anywhere near as close since then
>>42851298you would, fag
>>42852880Which ranked vote method do you have in mind?
>>42853754Not that anon, but I'm guessing what he means is that instead of choosing a single option you would rank each choice as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th preference, and weighted accordingly.That way you're more likely to get something everyone is reasonably happy with
>>42853841Yup, exactly what I was thinking. I would've preferred instant-runoff, but I don't think it's doable since we'd have to know who voted for the eliminated candidates in order to divvy up points to their second and third choices.
