Winter Ball Discussion Thread

Well Veeky Forums it's that time of year again and the Winter Ball is on the horizon so it's time for us to pick a date!
I figured we are, for the most part, civilized enough that we should have a proper discussion on who to ask so the whole of the board can voice their opinions and concerns.

I am casting my vote for asking /vp/ again. We had a lot of fun the last two years and we have gotten some great OC because of it but we are open to suggestions. I k ow Veeky Forums has already extended an invitation to us.

Guys, I feel bad. I think we should take /po/ out of pity.

I think we should accept Veeky Forums. They made a move on us and asked us before anyone else. If /vp/ truly valued us then they would have asked as well. We should take the one that cares about us and doesn't take us for granted, let's go with Veeky Forums.

It's not out of pity user. We asked them last year and they told us to fuck off.

Good points however I do think we should give /vp/ a little bit more time. Their board is in a mixture of complete hype and disappointment because of the new game coming out and the board traffic is much faster than normal, making it hard to keep a Winter Ball thread alive.

What is "tan?" And why don't you like balls?

While /po/ is a good choice, we got shot down pretty hard last year because of their Nazi mod. I doubt it would work a second time, but Teej always likes a challenge.

There was a lot of good oc when we ended up going with /vp/. /vp/- tans are super cute.

Veeky Forums has asked us also, so that's an option. Although, I'm not familiar with their tan, so i dunno.

Nothing will be solidified until polls go up anyway.

One thing to note is that /x/, while we share a good deal of history with them, is out of the question. There's always a massive brawl between 3-4 boards over who gets to take them and we should stay as far away from that as possible.

True. /x/ is basically a cum- drenched husk anyway. I'd rather not even get involved. Also, claimed by /pol/ this year from what I understand.

I wouldn't say claimed, they've having a bit of a fit in /x/. Still agree that we shouldn't go near them, not with better dates around still.

so we are going with Veeky Forums then?

I would be OK with doing what we did last year. /x/ was tired of /pol/ sockpuppeting their polls.and such so they tagged along with us and the twins as a tagalong. I felt it worked out fine and let /x/ have a little bit of their former life come back. No romantic stuff, just tagging along without a date to have some fun and get away from /pol/. If they come to us again with the same offer I say we accept.

Nothing is confirmed until the polls are made but they are a candidate.

If you guys are willing to accept magical realm, /trash/ is always willing to go

No means no.
No is always no.
If you hear no it means a thousand times no.
No plus no equals no.
All nos lead to no no no.

Please keep this stuff in /qa/.
It's not traditional games, and frankly, it's embarassing how awful it is.

So let's list the best possible choices pre-poll creation.

>Take /vp/ again like we have done the last two years.
>Take up Veeky Forums on their offer
>Try our luck at /d/ now that some time has passed and they actually like us again
>Go as bros with /co/ if for some ungodly reason they don't ask Veeky Forums

What about /trash/ ?
I thought we had a thing for non-humans

What about /qst/? :^)

Do they have a -tan already?

It's a traditional roleplay that Veeky Forums has done for years. I think that's good enough.

I'm a newfag. What the fuck is Winterball?

Once a year board-shipping thing.
We went with /vp/ last year, Veeky Forums asked us out this year.

We could still go for /trash/, kinda waiting for polls

you are correct, it is embarrassingly awful
but that doesn't stop it being either traditional or a game

Stop trying to make /trash/ happen.

It won't.

what happened to /x/
I liked /x/

Giga-Puddi and then /b/ invaded and never left.

Our Waifu is dead.

She died, and then like 5 different dudes fucked the corpse. Now 1 guy from /pol/ is obsessed with her.

ah well, /b/ happens

I'm pretty sure we shouldn't go to the ball with our daughter, senpai

but who would go with /qst/ if not us?

I think they like /a/ but I'm not 100% positive on that.

shimmie.4chanhouse.org/index.php?q=/post/list/qst/1

/vp/?

I believe /qst/ is taking /cm/ because of /qst/-tan quest.

On a different note /vp/ is most likely going to ask us once their poll is done. Last I heard we were 80% of their poll.

Questfags can stay with /trash/

/vp/ is always a back-up option if we can't net anyone else.

/a/ will probably go with /v/, if one of them can stop being tsun for the other for ten seconds.

Didn't we go with /s/ one year?

When I get home from work I'll put together the preliminary poll for everyone to vote if no one makes one before that.
If /vp/ does indeed ask us though I feel we should accept. They were great fun the past few years and they turn 17 in a week so lots of cute birthday art.

I'd like to consider /vr/ out of their love of a lot of CRPGs that are D&D related. We both love our Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment,etc.

And possibly /m/ because of Battle Tech, 40k,etc.

Doesn't /m/ almost always go with /toy/?

And while i fucking love /vr/, I think he's better as an eternal bro in the same vein as /co/. Definitely a candidate to consider if /vp/ doesn't want us though.

/s/ is a good mix of hot and desperate. I'd at least consider it.

Take /trash/. The possum needs a dicking.

Fuck off. No one wants to take your meme board.

>/qst/ decided their date with a quest
it's so perfect I'm not even mad

Does /s/ even do meta shit like this? I can't imagine there are a bunch of /s/ drawfags floating around.

>not going with /k/

/k/ is happily married to /an/ you homewrecker. They even have a kid in /out/. Not gonna happen.

Veeky Forums asked us, so I don't think we should turn them down.

we tried last year they auctually rejected us before we even asked them

This!!!

This user is going to make a poll so we can decide who we take. Once it's made than the votes will decide.

We can't just turn down /vp/, they want to go with us from the looks of it.

/vp/ is a bit of a mess right now and most threads for the ball get archived within about 20 minutes because of the influx of people asking about games and leaks. We finally got a thread up now and are trying to get votes going, but we'll see how well it goes. The people who care about the winter ball just aren't able to see any info on it.

Could be fun.

According to a /vp/oreon friend of mine, apparently 83% of the votes in their poll were to Veeky Forums when he did his.

Well then, I'm proud of our child. I feel we should visit them more often.

He's a good kid. I've heard /d/'s kid has also taken quite the shine to him. Our little man is becoming quite the Casanova.

Fukken /trash/ is open to us we should hook up, we could be a bit dirty this ball...

/trash/ fuck off. No means no.

See

/vp/ is just gonna end up attacking /trash/ thinking its an Ultra Beast

Jesus christ user.
You have a problem.
Seek help.

new generation next week, so they get a birthday.

I'm pretty down for Veeky Forums

So, a poll just went up in Veeky Forums. Votes are slow as only Veeky Forums can be, but it at least sounds like they're thinking either Veeky Forums or... both us and /vp/?

Thats an interesting development I was not expecting. I'm not sure how /vp/ will feel about it but it definitely seems like it could be an option.

Ok, sounds like it's either /vp/ or Veeky Forums. I say /vp/, because going with Veeky Forums would feel a little creepy, and /vp/ seems to have its heart in the right place. We should keep an eye on /qst/ though. Don't want our child to get into too much trouble. Unless that results in them deciding to stop being a blue board, and causing a return of Papa-N and Heretical Love Quest

Alright guys, poll user here back from work. Have we reached a consensus or are we still throwing around hypotheticals? Should I make one with all the boards or just the few we are discussing?

poll whats being brought up.
Veeky Forums, /trash/, /vp/, and throw in a couple randos for funsies

Yeah. If /toy/ and some of the other boards don't have any plans, toss them into the mix. I wouldn't mind seeing an option with on of the sexier boards, but they'd have to suit our tastes. /d/ is currently deliberating between us and /mlp/, so that's also a possibility.

Alright I'm thinking up some security questions. I'm not too concerned with sockpuppeting but it doesn't hurt to be safe. They'll be easy enough that any fa/tg/uy should be able to solve them no problem.

/d/ here, /mlp/ is a blight not even we will accept.

As far as we are concerned, we and Veeky Forums want elves, but /mlp/ wants sugarshit ponies.

/x/ never got better after /b/ was done with them.

>Veeky Forums has already extended an invitation to us.
Then, shouldn't we go with them? Why would we say no to Veeky Forums?

We moved on years ago, and she moved on before we did.

>their
Veeky Forums is a tranny?

>implying you don't want the big stinky herodotus cock

I haven't seen anyone seriously saying we shouldn't accept Veeky Forums's offer.

Alright guys, I think I did this right. Haven't made a poll on here before so if you catch a fuck-up than tell me.

docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScViI04GQr15RMqGuh7EglmGc61Q1yCWzVI2wePL7O11ztQJQ/viewform

>/d/ is deliberating

I'm why not take both?

I would find it very amusing if Veeky Forums /d/ and Veeky Forums end up becomming then nucleus of a massive date blob and following that a Roman Orgy.

We can't leave /vp/ out of that.

What kind of security question is this?

It's not much of a meme, it's just celebrity trivia.

I could understand a Matt Ward or Guygax question but this is not out there.
I've been browsing Veeky Forums since March 2013 and have no ide a what the answer to this security question is.

Ah, sorry. I thought it was something everyone could figure out. I believe you got it right user but if you think it could be better then I'll think up a new one.

Man I only knew one for sure, the other two I got with good deduction.

>I believe you got it right user but if you think it could be better then I'll think up a new one.

I haven't answered it yet. I'm up trying to search for the answer because I don't want to guess.

The first one is pretty out there but I could catch the other two at least.

Hmm. Well if that is the case I better change it then.

Is still hung up on the first question like

Alright I changed it but I have no idea if it will carry over into already open polls. Is the new one any better?

Think about it this way. One is a joke answer, one involves someone that is part of an infamous scandal therefore the last one must be true.

Oh, too late.

Would you say the new question is more appropriate?

Ok so,.the whole winter ball thing is and always has been cancer

But I think Veeky Forums is a good fit for us, since we always tend to encroach on their shit with our threads.

/K/ is the other good choice.

Yeah. It's certainly more board culture specific.

/pol/ and /x/ just won a presidential election together so they're a shoe in for one another. Let them have everyone's sloppy seconds. RIP /x/

Now it jumps from the filter questions to the "thank you for voting" page.

well it was kind of impressive

i mean, they did it.

By the power invested in me as a forever GM, a long time wargame player, and even a larper at certain occasions, I hereby do declare my intent to vote for Veeky Forums as a true adventurer never turns down an offer.

Very good :)
It is more board culture specific and the "now I can't vote" problem for me turned out to be me fat fingering the answer and browser movement buttons on my phone.

Thanks for catching that. It should be fixed. I fucked up on one of the answers and it moved to the wrong page.

I'm voting for the orgy option because it's what Veeky Forums and /d/ would want.

Plus a proper adventuring party should have more than 2 members.

Also most of our interesting threads involve /history/ in some fashion
