I would like to nominate this cute, and totally not /mlp/ player, pony to be a referee for Summer. Her name is Ms. Ypred.

>>42270304
I like the way Anonymous thinks!

Last thread archived before MATRIXFAGS told me where the BENUDIES squares are

>>42270314
I meant to say BLAYOFFS fug

>>42270304
>Ypred.
I've never seen this pony before. Where did you get her?

After two days, the FAG is currently sitting at a 50% draw rate. How many times do you lads think football will win today?

LIV

FAG13 is LIV

LIV

Uggos GTFO, it's time for /btq/ to shine

It's not looking good, Dashpals.

>>42270461
50% draws, perfectly balanced.

Dashchads, I...

>/cdf/ defense

The comeback begins!

Here's how /cdf/ can still win

Aw, c'mon, Dashfags! You guys scored two whole goals! Why the long faces, huh?

Time to see if the unicorns truly are """Gifted""". Results so far have been inconclusive

>>42270590
They're gifted at being cute

Working on a logo design for Summer to submit to the logo contest. Got some variants at the moment.

Lyra scored (I forgot to make this prediction earlier).

>>42270600
Twice!

>>42270607
hmm, I think she could score a third time.

I have to say, Celestia has been doing more than usual this match. A shot on target!

HOLD ON THIS RESULT DRAWBROS

>>42270622
I blame her for this.

Thank you, Princess.

>>42270622
>>42270647
Literally the worst.

>glued again
this can't keep happening bros
Also am I misremembering that /marefair/ was supposed to be a one-time thing and retired after the last hurrah of the 4CCCL? Since irl teams aren't really supposed to be a thing in FAGs?

>>42270656
I forgot why they kept Mare Fair. They mentioned it last FAG I think.

>>42270656
>>42270661
/marefair/ stuck around because they won the last FAG.

>>42270656
>>42270661
It's because they won

>>42270656
>>42270661
I just assumed it was because they did another Mare Fair.

>>42270599
Nice work Anon
I like bottom right.

>>42270656
It was, then they won,and the joke keeps going.

>>42270666
>>42270669
I thought they rigged it for them last time because it would be their only FAG.

Snooty...

I love you Nightmare, but come on...

If /lod/ manages to come back and the game ends 2-2 and the next game is a nil slurpfest, we can have blayoffs.

>>42270707
RIP blayoffs

>Getting scored on twice by Nyx
This should sting more than the loss tee bee aitch

>parasprite

>daybreaker picks on a blind filly
Perfect villain.

Technically, /lod/ is undefeated this cup.

Does a 1-1 result mean blayoffs?

>>42270783
Yes, unless Titan is gay and uses the meme benuldies as the deciding factor.

I want /mup/ to find the music I also want blayoffs

And blayoffs are dead, right?

what are some good ref ideas. I'm blanking.

Quite the exciting day for the last group stage games. Until tomorrow Anons!

>>42271526
I don't know how well it would work in practice, but I had the idea of Tank floating around at head-level with Doctor Octopus arms attached to his flight harness he can dispense cards with.

>>42271601
I saw an aerial attempt by Apple Snack but it never connected in /filly/ vs /pnk/. What event was it and around what time in game?

>>42271526
barney, rigged somehow to ref an /mlp/ match
other than the models the board wants to see i think it should be considered what can be done with them to produce funny moments with potential for screencaps (or just to get the attention of the stream).

every ref having a gun in spring produced some funny ones but what can we do differently that is still board related? for example: Trollestia with a megaphone (will a cannon be too much?) so it seems like she's always screaming at the players. the jar as a ref might be too much but i can imagine it working somehow.

>>42271633
nvm I thought.

>>42271639
I still like the idea of IWTIRD but positioned backwards so she's always presenting her plot to anyone she's approaching. But seems current players can't be used.

i like the idea. if rainbow can't be used there are others that can take her place but then the ref probably shouldn't recycle the same pose either. maybe something flutterrape related.

This is funny in general, but having it be a god-tier villain vs a blind filly makes it even funnier.

I like it in general, but the sun spokes sticking out on the left and bottom make it look unbalanced.

Personally I really like >no hooves on the team, it's a staple meme of the board whether you like >no hooves or hate it.
I like having Sunset specifically represented but I am game for changing out the model every so often. I was going to suggest earlier maybe a compromise was instead of Meegan becoming a new player, Meegan just becomes >no hooves since she lacks hooves

Numget and Linky are not comparable. Numget works as a /mlp/con rep, a relevant fixture of the board for going on five year now. Linky is just another mare mare mare meme that could be replaced by any number of reps. I'm honestly surprised so many Anons voted to keep her

>>42273803

>>42273936
i think she has one of the best models

>>42273936
No one thinks of /mlp/con for numget, ever

Ok, any other moments or is that it?

>>42273983
Not from me. Thanks for the clips!

>>42273936
Numget is far more a cytube/MLPA rep than a /mlp/con rep.

>>42273936
>add linky to the team

She's the glue holding the team together.

>>42273983
The Dan goal too

Anything else?

>>42273983
Thanks anon
Still sad to see her go but getting a cool final goal feels like a proper send off. Good on managers for putting them forward for that

>>42274107
Vote her back in after Summer.

>>42274109
>after Summer
yeah but then we miss out on her swimsuit model
Especially given it's Summer I'm hoping management throws her in as a Ref, I feel like that'd be appropriate

>>42274248
Put her in every ref slot with a different (canon) outfit.

>>42274048
More like linking the team together, amirite?

>>42274248
I dunno man, volunteer your body and soul to the testing mines and bring forth new glory to /eqg/

This is how Rainbow Paddle Pop Anon gets on the team with a sunset wig

Since there's no 8 hour show to say which teams are good (the teams I like) and which teams are bad (the teams I don't like) I think it's time to make a post FAG roundup
>/apl/
The standard is the standard, like always the Apple Family showed some great chemistry in the field and led a solid group stage campaign, just to lose on the first round of the knockouts. Special shoutout for Braeburn for only showing up in the games that /apl/ lost
>/btq/
A quick return to form after FAG 12's performance, this team was dangerous and the 3rd place trophy is proof of that. Special shoutout to Coco Pommel for her golden boot
>/bug/
Another shining example of the 9 point curse, a team who had the easiest group stage of the entire tournament, just to be exposed on the knockouts, no idea how a team based on a hive could be so disjointed. Special shoutout to Kevin, for being the glue holding these scattered bugs together
>/cdf/
After a great showing on the 4cc Champions League this team is back on their recent form of being a shitpost, nothing more fitting to a Rainbow Dash team, that victory against /marefair/ shows that there might be a future rivalry brewing in the horizon. Shoutout to Incidental Pegasus, she didn't do anything but she looked good doing it
>/csgu/
I had hope for this team, they played like they meant it on the first game, it wasn't a classical case of /csglue/. And then to be eliminated on the last possible moment by /marefair/, it stings but I hope it means good things on their future. Special shoutout to Lyra for carrying this team on her back
>/filly/
The best I can say for this team is that they played like actual fillies, ran around aimlessly for a while, then got tired and went home, a lukewarm campaign that almost deserved a spoon
>/g5/
Like G5 itself the hype for this team died down quickly, I'm honestly surprised it's still alive at this point, and if it keeps having these results I don't know if it should be
>/lod/
A group stage exit is nothing new, but to look good doing it is kinda surprising, hopefully a sign of things to come. Shoutout to Grogar for coming in clutch for once in his career
>/luv/
A glorious return to form in the group stages, only to be defeated on a hard game against the eventual runner up, all the mistakes from FAG 12 were corrected, and now they're hungry for a 3rd win. Special shoutout to Luna, her gluteus minimus was the key factor to turn this team back into a world beater
>/marefair/
The bullshit is real and it lives in Orlando. Never looked outright dominant or strong outside of the final, yet the second star is absolutely warranted, someone stop this team please
>/mup/
This FAG has been a Greatest Hits album, another okay group stage, another massive blowout victory, another loss in the final to see another team win two in a row. Shoutout to Feather Bangs, without him this team wouldn't have left the group stage

>>42275220
Nice, I wonder if it would ever be possible fora post commentary box in the future. I wouldn't join myself but talking about the teams and their runs is fun.

>>42275220
cont.
>/oc/
I know recolors are /oc/'s thing, but this was just a carbon copy from last FAG, they even lost to the same team in the knockouts, probably the team that came the closest from stopping /marefair/ from winning that second star
>/pl/
Like Pony Life itself, no one has any expectations for this team, it's another team that won't impress with prowess, so they will baffle with bullshit, I'm secretly waiting for the time they somehow win a FAG
>/pnk/
For once they gave the people what they wanted, the pie sisters are in, but to not rock the boat and make too many changes, they lost in painful fashion, second 4th place in a row, maybe things will fall into place and the fun will be taken to the final, or maybe they'll return to their roots of being, group stage fodder, whatever is most fun
>/tfh/
Not the greatest showing, this team looked solid up until their last game, where /mup/ stunlocked them into a corner and they couldn't do a thing to stop it. Hopefully they use that loss as fuel and they can win another FAG, and then SURELY they'll release chapter 2 of story mode
>/wdb/
Imagine going from runner up to losing to ACTUAL CHILDREN. I haven't seen a fall so huge since /u/, and even then they didn't lose the spoon match to children. There is being the Blunderbolts, and then there's this, a new low mark. If you're on the fence about making or reviving a team for the next FAG, remember this, you won't be as bad as /wdb/ were here

>>42270647

>>42275288
Alright that's good and all but where are the /faggot/ takes?

>>42275407
Well, they're faggots. What else is to be said about them?

>>42275407
The faggots did it, they won the most embarrassing game I've seen since that time /co/ won against the final boss. As a reward they'll receive a full plate of tendies, and the Wonderbolts training facility will be renamed in their honor
While I'm here let's discuss the team itself. Coming high after a glorious 3rd star campaign, I didn't know what to expect from the roster polls, I had a hard time picking players for the sack watch because I've grown to like everyone, yet, I want to avoid stagnation and turn this team into another team that hasn't added a new player since Gracen was the commissioner, so I'm a bit disappointed that for the first time in the team history, there will be no new players, and personally I was never fond of Snowpitys, just like Mare Stare she's a lukewarm player that just stood there expecting to have a spot on the team just for the popularity. Numget didn't do that, neither did Linky or Mare Fair, all these players showed passion, love for the game, a desire to be there and represent this board to the best of their ability. I she proves me wrong next cup, but I don't see that as a good sign

>>42275459
I hope*

>>42275220
>>42275288
Wow, I had hopes to see takes on the teams this season, and now here they are. Thanks anon.

next time it will be /apl/'s turn to shine again I can feel it

>>42275459
>I'm a bit disappointed that for the first time in the team history, there will be no new players
Me too, I'm genuinely surprised Paddle Pop didn't make it, that thread was high comedy and the meme had enough staying power that I'm still seeing him pop up in threads to this day. Guess too many just didn't get the joke.

>>42275499
I'm still pissed this legend didn't get voted on

>>42275503
make it a new ball

>>42275508
>>42275503
Yeah, the bag would work very good as a ball.

>>42275459
>Minuette/Snowpity had no passion
What do you expect with the position they were put in to play? A goal? Is Linky any better? Besides, Snowpity is WAY more relevant compared to numget as well, and I don't mean for Rainbowshine or sunbeam.
Just because you like A or B better doesn't make others any less worth.

>>42275499
Paddle Pop felt like the Rainbomination of old. Barely worth for one season, but otherwise not at all relevant unless used one of the edits to have pony.

>>42275671
>>42275499
Paddle pop just needs a few more threads to grow, just one thread isn't quite enough but he's got potential. Rainbomination is the perfect analogy because that was just two or three threads.

For the next roster poll, I'd like to see some ancient players like Seaty Belt or King Zebra make a comeback

>>42275671
>What do you expect with the position they were put in to play? A goal?
It's not what position I've expected them to play, is how they played in said position, Snowpitys didn't do her job as a CMF, she barely showed up and was one of the reasons /mlp/ stayed on the babby in the cups she was on
>Is Linky any better?
Slinky Linky has a perfect record in the cup, she is one of the most consistent fullbacks this team ever had, and was an important piece of /mlp/'s defense
>Besides, Snowpity is WAY more relevant compared to numget as well, and I don't mean for Rainbowshine or sunbeam.
Exactly, the fame went to her head, she thought she was on the same level as Hi Anon! or Twilight and she wouldn't be replaced, while delivering performances comparable to players like ^:) or Faggot Deer

>>42275288
Defence is always an undersung element of any team, but I'd like to give a mention to /bug/'s backfield for preventing our knockout loss from being more embarrassing than it was. /pnk/ were putting on some incredible pressure, and it showed in the dots - all but one steal by /bug/ happened on our side of the pitch. Some of those Praestes saves were spectacular. Notes (or polite suggestions) to our Queen: our defence is fine, but you need to work out a way to move the ball into enemy territory. No notes on Kevin. He's our special boy.

Can we have some feedback on the ref polls?

bumpa

>>42276147
>Seaty Belt
spoonfeed me on this one, it's one of those that were simply before my time like CONTROVERSIAL

>>42277504
Seaty Belt was just a Sweetie Belle meme because it sounds similar, like Squeeky Belle.

CONTROVERSIAL was from, I think the Howard Stern radio show where they did a piece of bronies, how they wanted to fuck the cartoon horses and it started with the words CONTROVERSIAL, VERY DISTURBED. A mod decided to fuck with /mlp/ and made it the background audio for the board for a while, so everytime you opened a new thread, refreshed, or went back to the catalog it was CONTROVERSIAL, VERY DISTURBED

>>42277504
The first /mlp/ roster was created in the span of 2 hours, so it had some interesting players like Seaty Belt, Nathan and King Zebra

up

>>42276346
/bug/ bounced back after a really rough FAG 12, they appear to be finding their footing for now, things look bright for the bugs

>>42275499
Dubs demands Rainbow Paddle Pop Anon handing out reds like candy (don't touch his popsicle tho)

I read through the Paddle Pop Anon thread, but I don't get why it's funny.

>>42279357
That's the secret: it's not

>>42279357
The team will slowly become filled with more and more "you had to be there" memes until Boris finally goes insane and bans us

>>42279357
>I find the Anon self-insert OC creepy so I created a less creepy OC
>creates pic rel
how is that premise not a comedy gold mine

>>42280028
Aren't all the teams filled with board-specific "you had to be there" memes? Why is it an issue when it's /mlp/

>>42280079
I see.

>>42280227
I meant in the snowpity way

Who would like a rainbow paddlepop?

>>42280285
Where did you find those?!

these takes are almost not shitty, thanks anon can't stop won't stop the /marefair/ threepeat
Now I'm ready for FAG 14 with 32 teams to take up three full weekends of the main 4cc cytube channel.

>>42282854
How many FAG/FT teams has there been across all cups?

>>42282854
Please BEE the change and revive some teams or make some new ones. Here are some suggestions
>Everycreature - /ec/
says on the can
>Royals - /ryl/
I think we can get a full roster of assorted Queens, Kings, Princesses, Princes, and Lords
>Ziggers - /zig/
Ayy zigga
>Milfs - /milf/
Mommies need love
>Snowponies - /snow/
There's enough of them we can get a roster
>Plones - /plone/
Sure some faggot can come up with an actual roster
>G1 - /g1/
It's only fair if /g5/ is a team that G1 get a team too, especially with all the Scootertrix shitposts MEGAN
>/mlp/con and/or marecon team
If the shitty irl con gets a team these two should too

>>42282911
>g1
no

>>42282911
>more con teams
no

/bug/ needs to bring Twilog back. She's an expert tard wrangler and can help them get their synergy back.
>>42282911
>/milf/
You have my support. GILFs still count, right?

>>42282946
/milf/ was almost a team for FAG6. There was a testers vote between three different teams and /mup/ won the vote.

>>42282985
Actually I was incorrect, the vote was between five teams and /ponylife/ won the vote.

>>42282940
At least they're actually board related unlike the normieshit that is Mare Fair

>>42282900
16 teams active in FAG 13 plus /eqg/ /gay/ /pow/ /sdb/ /sun/ = 21

>>42282911
24 team format let's go

>>42282911
Instead of convention teams just go with /mascot/
Also /milf/ has my approval

i like linker

>>42282917
>g1
yes

>>42284338
Nah majority of anons doesn't like it.
Check the poll to see how many votes meegan got.

>>42284440
I like G1, just not enough to vote for a rep for the team. It doesn't have much presence on the board.

>>42284440
i'd vote for a /g1/ fag team but something tells me it would just be /scootertrix/

>>42284440
this

>>42284472
Nah, Gold Captain SHOO BE DOO

>>42284472
I fail to see the problem with this.

>>42284472
I dont like G1, something about it just feels very forced so I wont vote for a G1 team

>>42285307
>something about it just feels very forced
What does this even mean?

>>42282911
I'd love to see a snowpony team but it seems a bit late for that. Maybe a team full of alternate races? Snowponies, batponies, kirin, etc

>>42285323
it got 500% more popular on this board as soon as scootertrix started making g1 videos
anything that gets popular that quickly will have some anons thinking it's a shill campaign
although i am pretty sure that those videos have brought a good amount of tourists here

>>42285333
There's a cytube shilling g1 on the board 24/7.
You know who you are.

>>42285366
Wrong post?

>>42285369
Yeah I meant to reply to the one below yours sorry.

>>42285333
I like this idea more than just a snowpony team. Could be fun, but is there enough alternates for a 23 pone squad?

>>42285423
>Frosty Flakes, Cold Shoulder, Winter Wonder, Pine Ponder, Lichen, Cirrus Wisp, Arctic Ink, Autumn Blaze, Cinder Glow, Rain Shine, Fern Flare, Echo, Flutterbat, Lucky Roll, Bella Morel
Off the top of my head. There's probably more than enough snowponies and background kirin to fill out the rest. Maybe add a mothpony or two for good measure

>>42285756
I was thinking more one alternate rep per player. Which I think would be more difficult, but there's quite a lot of different pone species.

>>42285916
at that point you could just make /badumsquish/ since half of the reps will be his creations

>>42285916
Sounds like a pretty tall order, but maybe some ja0822ck creations could fill in some space. Would be a pain in the ass to model though

>>42285352
Each of his G1 abridged videos has over 100K views. The top two are over 1M views. The man basically raised G1 from the dead. I wouldn't know a single thing about G1 were it not for his videos.
