Yes, you. The one screaming, "Horsefucker conspiracy" and "Oh no a pony my day is ruined" and other slurs I dare not mention.
Tread lightly.
You are one. We are hundreds, thousands. Millions. You aren't just IN the minority; you ARE the minority.
I don't feel awkward or anxious watching /mlp/ play against others, and your words don't affect me. Many others, however, are coming out of their shells for the first time in their lives. This is the first time many are enjoying the beautiful world that has been created for us - and it IS beautiful. Incredibly so. DON'T ruin this for them. We /mlp/ posters may have our differences, but we will not hesitate to come to the aid of our fellow fans, especially against someone who so virulently slurs that which has brought us all together.
Don't take this the wrong way. I don't hate you. I don't fear you.
I pity you.
I'm sorry that you feel this way towards us. I'm sorry that /mlp/ is such a bane to your existence. And I'm sorry that you are missing out on such a wonderful experience. Mostly, though, I'm sorry that you feel the need to go around and publicly chastise and berate others. I'm sorry that, to ensure your own validity, you need to make others feel invalid. I'm sorry that your self-worth is so infinitesimally minuscule that you have to make others feel less-than-human, at least in your own denatured mind, just to feel whole. I am truly sorry that day-in and day-out you have to put up with your worthless, meaningless, Shakespearean tragedy of a life.
I ask you politely to cease your unnecessary cries for attention, and instead invite you to join our ranks. Close your board, open up /mlp/, and breathe in the splendour and the amazement of your first thread, and then, maybe, just maybe, you'll see what you've been so hopelessly searching for this whole time.

Congratulations on victory!

The only team I ever loved Was born with rigging in her eyes They buried /mlp/ alive One evening 1945 (+72) With just /an/ there at her side And only weeks before Mangum All came and rained on Pony's fun Now they're losing 2-0 on stream It's every Hitbox viewer's dream As Boris rigs around the sun /mlp/'s Babby time has come...

So what needs to happen for /int/ and /gd/ to advance together? Is is even possible now?
Jayden Gonzalez
The version with /p/ was better because is true
Justin Phillips
>/c/ or /int/ will make it through this group I am okay with this result.
I was hoping for /an/ and /jp/, but anything that shoves the horsefuckers into the babby is great. Sometimes you normalfags are alright.
I can't believe /jp/ is in an elite knockouts!
I'll kind of miss seeing them in comfy babbies
Brandon Stewart
Cry more pony boy.
Carson Baker
If /c/ lose by 2 and /gd/ - /int/ draw. Also if both /f/ and /int/ win but /gd/ manage to get a better GD than /c/. There could be more options, check the previous threads for the matrix.
Matthew Sullivan
When are knockout schedules going to be available?
Christopher Miller
Hey there buddy I may not like /mlp/ but you stay the fuck away from Emergence.
Tyler Morris
Is that Hiro?
Austin Martin
My hot spicy opinion, is Sou really that butt mad that he refuses to even host /mlp/ games?
I mean I know no one likes /soc/ but no one flips their shit and refuses to host their games.
I guess I'm just wondering what happened to Sou that makes him unable to even consider hosting a /mlp/ game
Ryan Martinez
8 Possible results in regards to group stage.
Because /f/ is already regulated, each team has 5 possible outcomes where they advance.
Not enough time to throw up some numbers which are probably off anyway, gg doing math at 4am so I'll let the matrix speak for itself.
Enjoy the matches. And press F to pay respects.
Mason Hughes
Is that Duke Nukem?
Matthew Price
He really isn't. He's been open about refusing to stream /mlp/ for a while. This is just him pointing it out.
I do not like /mlp/. I don't understand everyone being so thrilled at /mlp/ being relegated, when the best case scenario would have been a draw that killed a medal or two to knock them out at the Round of 16. We all have to watch at least 6 more /mlp/ matches this year.
Jacob Turner
wew lad. What did he mean by this?
Brody Brown
Just another reminder that though /mu/ finished them off, it was /jp/'s brilliant win against an unfortunate /an/ side that truly sealed this result.
Carson Cook
yes

Don't have to watch shit, really. It's not that hard to skip their matches now that they're in a no-stakes babby unless they get fetused

This cup is more staged than the Wrestling. It was clear that the popular storyline for this cup was for the best team in the cup to get relegated this season and everything was rigged in a way to allow that to happen.
First, the /mlp/ /jp/ game was played on the wrong difficulty. I know you memelords will say it doesn't matter but consider how much better they played against /an/ in the second game on the right difficulty. They stomped /an/, who were sadly terrible (more on this later) and the way /jp/ lost to /mu/ showed that /jp/ wasn't really a strong contender either. You can't say that the difficulty had no impact on the first game. If we were being fair, that match should be replayed. But I who cares about that, right?
Second, /an/ clearly threw their match against /jp/ to give them as many goals as possible to make relegating /mlp/ even easier. /an/ conceded three goals early and didn't change a thing until AFTER they scored a goal. When they went to long ball, they didn't even get a single shot off. How can you say they were not throwing this game? If /an/ were playing a more reasonable game against /jp/ and lost by a goal or two, then /mlp/ would not be in this situation. However, because it is clear that /mlp/ being relegated was the story the community wanted (Good job staying unbiased commentators), /mlp/ had to go out.
This group was fixed before it began and I feel bad for the team who did so well to be eliminated for things they could not control. I guess I should be glad that some people are happy with what happened but they should be more concerned about HOW it happened. It was so obviously rigged it isn't as satisfying when you think about it. At least they will be playing more and draw more attention to the babbies but not because they did anything wrong
That is all

>/mlp/ stops participating in cups in the name of protests >they make their own cup, all brownies go there >they live 4cc alone it's like a dream come true
Robert Williams
Probably someone new, rigging happens, should be used to it by now.
Thomas Lewis
Stop with the false flag salt.
Isaac Flores
Stop paying attention to it.
Landon Powell
*teleports behind you* nice try, /mlp/... but not this time... heh... *slits your throat with katana*
Samuel Harris
The only good thing about /f/ getting relegated is that we get to see them in Spring.
Jeremiah Morales
Just close the tab ^:)
Easton Murphy
There are other teams with more rights to bitch about rigging.
Asher White
Both were facing the same condition mate, rigging happens, nor the first or last time it'll happen, welcome to the cup. For example during Summer 13 an entire day was run with Boris running the wrong settings, it happens, deal with it.
