Is there interest on this board for a 4chan cup team?

I honestly think /news/ should be in some kind of mascot or scenery role until we get more people.
I think we are the smallest of all the recent trial boards.
Perhaps we could have a unique special stadium and pitch made for us, or maybe /news/men could be some of the refs or shown on the sideline taking pictures or something.
Just my 2 cents.
We're too new and we don't have any board culture due to low posting rates.
>>18318
pretty much this
unless you want to make players called things like >clickbait and >not news
>>18320
/trash/ is new too, but they've got a team.
and /aco/ is making one now.
that said, I think you're right, >>18318.
you're almost /po/ slow right now, so not much board culture yet.
Still glad to hear you're interested though. We'd love to have you in the games once you pick up a bit.
>>18309
you should talk to the officials. I'm sure they could work something out like that.

What about Evening News by Chamillionarie?
>>18356
>black chased for using nigger
who's he trying to fool claiming there isn't a doublestandard?
>>18356
title alone doesn't typically work, unless it's really well known.
but its one to remember, if we can't think of anything more relevant.
>>18347

>>18320
yeah, but without the quotes, leave that for >DailyMail, or things like that
So far I got these:
Clickbait (the number 8, of course)
Not news
>Youtube
Absolutely Disgusting
Referal Link
Florida Man (or @_FloridaMan)
Sex sells
Yellowpress
>can't post pics
48 hours
but it's a weak lineup. The lack of memeing means slow board best board, though.

Mohammed Abad, just because I feel we'll hear from him some more.

Why not using a popular News site. Like CNN or The Huffington Post?
Well, good news is, our 4CC thread has lasted longer than /aco/s, despite having less of an idea what we want to do. More eager and into the spirit of things guess. Go team!
If we do this, I say we have a team of news people.
I know that Walter Cronkite is going to really shine.
>>18571
Yeah, lucky we kept it bumped, so the flood of new threads didn't push it into the archive.
>>18378
Best possible pick, right here.
>>18513
I thought about Weathergirl, but it felt like just throwing too much news reporting jargon for the sake of it, because we never EVER talk about the weather.
Talking about that, for the next big hurricane we could use a weather-tan:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_KQaKYeuhQ
>>18726
It can't be our Board-Tan, since a vast majority of us are men, but maybe our -Tan could be a team of people, which would be ironic, since we're so small.
>>18739
I meant Weather-tan, only to be used for weather happenings, like /pol/ uses ebola-tan and winter-chan
but I really like the idea of having a news team, even if only the main is our tan.
>>18744
Okay, what are the main components of the average /news/ team? Weatherman/woman, /sp/ortscaster, anchorman/woman, what else?
>>18711
>>18378
Seconded. I love that song, and I think it represents /news/ well. I found a more recent mix but it's still almost 20 years old and the group that made it is long gone now. Maybe someone else knows of a dubstep version or something.
Best I can find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DX4nsobHW8
>dying of heart attack
>dying of breast cancer
>dying of a japanese nuclear bomb
>mountains of credit card debt
>mountains of cocaine
My favorite part.
>>18752
This is good. We have a theme song, we have an idea for a -tan, one that could also double as our team, I feel like we're becoming a real board! If only people didn't want to delete us. Hopefully Hiro won't listen to them.
>>18755
Do we have a drawfag to render our -tan? I think a QT weather girl would be funny. (Plus we would have boards ask us to the winter ball)
>>18770
>I think a QT weather girl would be funny.
+ a different outfit for each season to add the to autism points
>>18675
Means we cared enough to bump it. That counts for something.
>>18811
I was being sarcastic. Still, it didn't get to page 2, so that's something.
>>18378
perfect.
I do like the idea of having one of those news intro opening title sequence jingles as our goalhorn though.
Something like these

>>18812
sorry. that's how the /aco/ one died, so that context was on my mind, not one that of /news/'s tepid flow.
>>18318
>we don't have any board culture
Thanks for no images, Hiro.
>>18739
How about
Anchorman: Main -tan, looks like a respectable man since we're turning out to be a respectable board.
Sportscaster: Maybe he looks like /sp/'s -tan.
Weathergirl: I like the idea of her having different outfits for the seasons.
Field Reporter: Needs an outfit that symbolizes that he is ready to be anywhere, since our articles can be from anywhere and about anything.
Camera man: He's only here sometimes in the morning, leaving immediately afterward, symbolizing that we are a text board, and can only post images in the OP. Maybe he's a drunkard.
Other guys can be co-hosts based on any memes we have or develop.
Man, I'm such a childish dumbass.
What do you guys think?
>>18840
I like it anon
>>18843
Thank you. It just feels like we need to get in the good graces of the other boards, because if they keep complaining, Hiro might delete us. He changed the New Years message to the Sundance one because of a suggestion in /qa/, and that might just be the beginning.
>>18840
what's a good female name equivalent for that poor sap Jim Cantore that they keep chucking into hurricanes?
>>18848
what do they even have to complain about us? we do nothing wrong. we barely exist.
Gojira, Mosura, Kingu Ghidorrah: Daikaiju Sokogeki
>>18840
it's good, but who is going to draw/design all that shit?
>>18852
Well, since none of them look to require custom blender work, you could probably just make them in-PES.
>>18852
Maybe someone in the -tan threads on /qa/?
We need an idea for a picture that could show the /news/ 4 team.
>>18850
That's their problem. "What does this board offer that you can't find in the comment section" is a common complaint. We have fun.
>>18755
Don't worry, Hiro sees no point in deleting slow boards, even made a athread about it:
>>>/qa/416437
>>18840
Add some guy semi-hanging from an helicopter always posing in the background of the group photos, and you sold it to me
>>18875
he's so cute :3
>>18878
With sunglasses?
>>18840
The placeholders could be made out of words. That could be interesting.
>>18840
>>18878
I was thinking. These people are reporters for the whole world. Sounds obvious, but the situation where we put them include the whole world. Helicopter Guy should be reporting on those 3 day long Chinese traffic jams, and Sportscaster should be hanging around a lot in Brazil lately. Just saying.
>>18956
taking the meaning of textboard to a whole new level
>>18318
Maby news for talking about all of 4cc instead of vg
Can we joke about pol by having "the good news" on our team
>>19148
We don't want to make /pol/ our enemy, or they might invade.
Any more ideas? The Heliguy could wear sunglasses, shorts, and a Hawaiian shirt.
Anyone still here?
>>19354
I have this thread in my thread watcher.
>>19355
Anything else that you think would be good for the tan? Once we're completely sure about what we want, we can get a drawfriend to make it on another board.
>>19357
I can't offer much except in my opinion I think (it's a guy, right?) he should look more like Edward R. Murrow more or Walter Cronkite sitting at a desk rather than a 40s journalist with a fedora.
>>19358
thought it was gonna be qt weather report girl :(
>>19359
oh shit I honestly hadn't been keeping up. oh well a weatherbunny is fine too.
is she going to be hispanic?
>>19360
tbf i don't really know. we still don't have a coach for the team
>>19366
but who is the tripfriend who will organize it all in PES?
>>19369
I'll just organize an idea for an image, then ask for it on /wsr/ tomorrow. Hopefully someone'll pick it up, then I'll make a thread for discussion, and to ask the mods to redo the sticky with our tan.
Anchorman: he's handsome; has good hair; wears a nice suit; gold tie clip that says /news/
Sportscaster: wears a football jersey over a suit; baseball cap; soccer ball on his mic; middle-aged; bald
Weathergirl: QT; wearing tight, winter themed dress; laid-back
Field Reporter: wears spacesuit with /news/ team 4 in place of American flags; can't see his face; huge backpack; always holding a microphone, even though it doesn't help
Camera Man: wears white buttonup& slacks; has a few stains; torn tie; holds bottle; never late, but always leaves early; rides large camera with stage lights and editing equipment; badly shaven face
Helicopter Pilot: Hawaiian shirt, cargo shorts, and sunglasses; likes posing
Co-hosts: all made in the style of ASCII images; have numbers on their chests; enough to round out our soccer team, probably 4; also like posing
How does this sound? I'll request it tomorrow, if everyone is fine with it.
>>19373
sounds great. I only hope we can find interested people who know how to run a team.
>>19376
I just really like that a dead textboard will have a fully interesting -tan while an older porn board still can't decide on which generic anime, er, CARTOON, girl to have.
Also, I came up with most of it, and am proud that people think that it's a decent idea.
>>19373
nice, make a newspaper-like ad for the request if you can
>>19378
How so?
Also, after one more reply, I will consider this to have succeeded.
Good night, /news/men! I hope to hear of your opinions in the morning.
>>19373
What about races?
>>19373
I like this, but at risk of adding too much, I wanted a Technology Editor.
Also, we STILL need more members for the team, even if we use all of these >>18416
I propose adding the team members, and make them play in the field according to their job. Camera man in the back, field reporter and helicopter guy where the action is, anchorman is the man player (is it the 10?), the co-hosts are support. I know shit about football, you get the idea.
Weathergirl is number 36° because she's hot as fuck. Are we going to make custom desgins?
>>19390
trying not to go for stereotypes feels forced, so I'd go directly for a black Sportscaster, an asian tech guy, why not a hawaian Helicopter Pilot surfing the winds, a chubby and unshaved Camera Man
Weathergirl just has to be a spic desu >>18726
>>19403
I was thinking Mex Weathergirl, black Heliguy, white everything else.
>>>/wsr/42610
>>19414
Could someone here reply to this thread, to show that more than one person is interested? I've noticed that threads with higher post counts and higher amounts of people requesting it are more likely to have the request fulfilled.
Does anyone here have enough freetime to be manager?
>>19541
Well, this is current news, so threads auto-sage after 48 hours. We shouldn't make a new thread, since this one already breaks the rules by not being about news, but we can make a new one if our -tan is drawn, since we can cite that as news.
I wish a drawfriend would do our request.
>>19555
>>19541
I say we don't make another thread, even if we get the -tan, because:
>I think anyone intersted is already here
>Glaciar-pace board, so only casuals don't see this thread
>If we make threads every time one reaches page 3, we'll have five threads at one point
>The whole affair is just trademark 4chan autism, not news. But this is cool autism, so it gets to live in a heavy-moderated board. Becoming too loud is just asking for deletion, or at least hate.
>If it doesn't take off, well, be it so. I don't see point in forcing it
The next thread should be when the cup starts, if ever, or if we have a whole team drawn, not just any excuse to circumvent the bump limit.
And I insist that notoriety is meaningless in such a slow board
>>19806
agreed, we could always post in the /vg/ threads about 4cc generally if need be.
>>19808
I already did. I asked if we were welcome. Some guys apparently dislike us, but others said it was fine. Can anyone be manager, or will we just get a merc?
>>18726
>because we never EVER talk about the weather.
what about the Comfy Jonas threads?
the weather makes the /news/ when it has a big enough impact
Also, is there any reason we can't just swipe a few news personalities??
Chris Hanson?
Dan Rather?
shit, I'm actually disappointed there hasn't been a Ron Burgundy meme on here yet
Maybe Will Ferrell will have a break down and spend a weekend in jail, that would certainly help
>>18840
I LOVE THIS
generic characters for the golds and silvers, and fill in the rest of the XI with uniques
Question, is anyone on this board proficient with PES?????
It feels strange being in a board so small that my shitty opinions and contributions will influence the image and culture of the board for years to come.
Just 21 IP's deciding the fate of the board
>>19885
I came up with 80% of the -tan. It's insane. If you have any more ideas, I'm welcome to hear them, since I really can't believe that people liked my ideas.
Can "Pandemic" be added to the team?
When is this thing?
Will we be making a new thread when this one dies? If so, will we add the description for the -tan from the /wsr/ thread?
We need a team to this, who be?
If there is a team, ">Florida" needs to be one of the players.
Newfag here... Im new to 4chan, just started using it about a couple of months ago. /news/ is were i started and were i spent most of my time on. I want to be part of this but i still dont get what the 4cc is all about. Would one of you kind men refer me to an explanation of how this all works? Like i said, i want to be part of this.

every board has an electronic football team generated and managed by a chantard
there are regular tournaments held through out the year
it's got it's own history complete with scandal and memefaggotry
look up Dragongate
Thread is last on board, new thread maybe?
