Happy 4th of July, /k/! Preparations for Summer continue apace, but today we celebrate this most momentous of days with a pre-season exhibition match.
>what the fuck is this?
Our favorite Mongolian Basket-Weaving Forum's homegrown AI vs AI soccer/football/divegrass league, where each board is represented by a team of its favorite memes. /k/ has had a team since the cup's founding in 2011 and has remained in continual operation since.

>status report?
With the Spring Babby concluded, we now return to business as usual. We remain in the elite bracket, facing the best of the cup this coming Summer Elite.
>when the fuck are we playing?
Home vs /britpol/ 4 JUL 1300 EST 1000 PST (2 HOURS0
Away vs /g/ 6 JUL 2000z
Summer begins 25 JUL

When last we met, the roster vote was aborted due to a general contentment with the state of the team. We are likely too close to Summer to make sweeping changes at this time, but please speak your mind on the matter, so that we can attempt to make adjustments if need be.

America, fuck yeah! must be played every time we score a goal.

It was strongly considered, but ultimately it was a little out of tone with the rest of what we're doing for the match.

Come to think of it, though, a BRRRRRT edit of AFY could be pretty fucking good. I'll have to put some thought into that.

I remember when /k/ won the first winter one and all the other boards were asshurt about it and wanted the championship rescinded because noone on /k/ gave a fuck and told them to fuck off, ah, good times.

>>63938596
It would be but it's more a 4th of july thing because /k/ is more than just the US. I just figured it would be funny on America day, especially against /britpol/. Unless you want to do Battle of New Orleans.

>>63938629
Agreed that it needs the right conditions, BRRRRT Division isn't getting cleared out, I'm just playing with the notion. For today, the bit was committed to very fast after realizing that we could have a game on the 4th, so we're keeping it a little more period-appropriate today.

And we are live!

The cup has interstitial graphics now?

Can we get player photos of the special match theme? Like the oulde wagon

>6-1 /k/
I see we take freedom very seriously. Ill have to watch the replay after work.

>>63938845
I'll be sure to collect those and get them into distribution.
>>63938924
It was supposed to be a little bit rigged, but the boys were feeling the spirit today.

Have a wonderful 4th of July, gentlemen, and I hope to see you here on Sunday for our match with /g/.

Even if it was a friendly and a "tiny" bit rigged in our favor holy shit that was fun to watch. Mad props to you guys.

>>63938989
The last time I used to actively watch these you barely had custom faces and kits
Apparently divegrass is the only part of the site that hasn't gone to shit entirely

>>63939875
We do owe /pol/'s aesthetics manager for the graphics; with the /k/ommandant gone, there's no way we could have done this on our own. I probably owe them a blatantly rigged friendly back at some point, but the important part is that America won.
>>63940026
Fortunately, PES 2016 and on have been substantially easier to make graphical mods for, and the cup's assorted graphics lads are some of the finest shitposters in the realm.

/k/ has always been a loyalist board.

>>63941992
Appreciation of the Brown Bess does not equate to excusing the Crown of being perched atop a royal cunt.

Well, we've made it most of the way. Hopefully one bump will do it for the night.

>>63947930
Maybe I should go poke the archive guy about Champions League, now that the part where everyone screams at him has died down, maybe it really did slip through the cracks. Fortunately, we do have the stream itself, though the chat log isn't available.

In other news, the beginning of the day's matches are being held up, so we're looking at being an hour behind schedule today.

That's our Sou!

Okay, after much delay, we are finally on!

That right there was the quintessential /g/ game. I apologize for any visibility issues, I forgot how dark their field is and I should have put the team on one of the winter camos. The good news is that it looks like the tactical plan is still working, failing to get a connection is one of those things that PES reserves the right to do on occasion, and I'd much rather have it happen to a friendly than in the middle of Summer.

Have a good evening, gentlemen, and we will re-convene here on either the 25th or 26th for our first game of Summer.
