The 4chan Cup is one of the many terrible ideas regularly birthed on 4chan: what if we made a bunch of football teams with players dressed up as board-specific memes and had the AI play against itself while we watch and commentate?

Hang on that actually sounds kind of fun.

/tg/ entered into the 4Chan Cup on December 31, 2011 in order to participate in the 2012 4chan Winter Cup (replacing /s/). Since then, the team of legends would go on to compete against the other boards of 4chan in all the Summer and Winter Cup games, several invitational matches, and many friendly games. Despite winning all the invitational events they have been invited to, Team /tg/ has yet to win a major Cup. /tg/ is currently ranked 17th out of 48.

Because he considers it "advertising," moot has forbidden the creation of 4chan Cup threads outside /vg/ and /sp/. Like the Inquisitors they are, the mods will summarily delete this creation with a relentless fury whenever they see them. However, it's possible to use this wiki's talk page to discuss the team, free from retribution.

The team's official colors are Ultramarine Blue, Mechanicus Rust and Ceramite White for accents. The team anthem is Tankard Basher. The team's goalhorn is Da Ork Song.

What is This

It's like a wargame with fixed point-costs for all armies.

Created in Summer 2011, the 4chan Cup is an event where AI controlled teams play against each other in a football tournament for a pretend prize. The event is streamed over the Internet with live commentary. Each team gets to name their players however they want, and give them uniforms and custom faces. Tactics, formations, and positions are prepared beforehand by the team's manager. Each team is allowed two Gold players with 99 in each stat, and two Silver players with 88 in each stat, and 20 skillcards to distribute between players of fixed heights.

/tg/'s team is currently managed by Marqod !!ScG+JApFxMq following the retirement of long-time team manager The DM !!4ejBZS7hAn9 in the wake of /tg/'s slim success in the 2014 Autumn Babby Cup.

On March 1, 2015, /tg/ took their first major cup win after defeating /h/ in the 2015 Winter Cup Final.

Almost all of the members of team /tg/ have articles on 1d4chan, and those that don't should. If you don't recognize them, you should probably look around a bit.

And if you needed more fluff, Team /tg/ is sponsored by Crazy Hassan's Used Camel Emporium. Deep Rot still provides the necrocomputational power for all min-maxing and mathhemmering. The Magical Realm is Team /tg/'s home stadium (because Friend Computer is the team owner), and the team manager is Commissar Fucklaw.

Match History

There's a much more comprehensive list of old matches and other statistics on the Rigged wiki.

/tg/ is currently playing in the 2013 Summer Cup.

What /tg/ Needs

How some players look up-close

Despite never being relegated to the lower league of the Babby Cup and winning three invitationals, /tg/ has yet to win an actual major cup. Unlike boards like /mlp/, /tg/ has also never won the Best Fans award. The team's kits could be better, and team /tg/ could use your help in running tactics simulations to help give us the extra edge. More drawfaggotry is always great.

It's possible to customize player faces to a significant extent in PES, and /tg/ got five custom faces for winning an invitiational, but we could do with more if someone wants to stretch their Blender skills. If you can draw mugshots, you can contribute custom face textures.

Just showing up to the games to watch them is great, too. Set your chat color to 0033FF - Ultramarine Blue in a show of solidarity, and prepare your tankard.

The Daily Neckbeard

The Daily Neckbeard is /tg/'s home-made tabloid newspaper. Compared to its rival, /co/'s Daily Bugle, the Neckbeard provides better-researched and more informative articles in a distinctively under-presented style. The Neckbeard reports on significant, /tg/-related events. Relive the past! Get HYPE for the future! Wish there were more of them!
