Less than 10 minutes before either goes live and we possibly find out about the fate of GL:tAS.

I'm hyped

>>47866703
Here's hoping for the good end

>>47872464

Captcha:needless btkings

Wait, are we suppose to be DDOSing smgo?

>>47872638
Sounds good, but what's a btking?

If so many people tried to get onto the site to vote that we brought the site down, does that mean we automatically win new seasons?

Because it should

>>47872703

Seriously. Voting with bandwidth.

>>47872663
No, we're just overexcited fans. Can't say I didn't expect this

>>47872666
KING SNYDER

>>47872754
All the bandwidth is mine!

Alright cool off guys give them a chance to get it back up

DAMN IT SMGO

YOU HAD ONE JOB

Well, it's sort of up.

>>47872844
I fucking love tumblr for starting this

I can't find GLTAS on here! This isn't going well... This site seems very bullshit IMHO

>we have made those shows private until a decision is reached

>>47872897
There's going to be a meeting on April 11 with CN to discuss bringing the shows back, then they'll be putting the vote back or whatever.

In the meantime, throw Motorcity a bone.

>>47872933
So we did it?

Aw, I was so excited about voting for GLTAS. Oh well, now we just have to wait.

>you can always send an email directly to crashtheserver@smgo.tv to show support.

I like these guys.

>>47872962
Thought the meeting was with WB, not CW.

Otherwise, yeah.

>>47873021
Looks like it. They only needed like 2500 votes anyway.
It's only part of the process though, now we have to wait to see how the meeting goes.

>>47873073
Oh shut up.

>>47873073
Aw don't be a stick in the mud

>>47873073

Not everything on tumblr is stupid people on imaginary social justice crusades.

>>47873106
How many did it get?

>>47873073
eh, it occasionally produces something worthwhile.

>>47873073
The only bad part about tumblr is the social justice assholes who have latched on to it. It's not the worst thing in the world.

>>47873143
I think it got to 1100 with people flooding the servers to throw money at it and YJ

>>47866845
Holy fuck my sides

>>47873153

Are the women supposed to be Fire and Ice? Because if so then that's really good

jesus, what the fuck happened to you /co/? fuck, you used to have to change tumblr filenames in order not to be ridiculed mercilessly; and now we're reduced to this...

>>47873403
And every part of 4chan is pictures of dead babies and "lel legion" too, right?

If a bunch of people call you a dumbass there's a good chance you're a dumbass.

>>47873573
How dare we abandon our meretricious crusade!

>>47873573
>Changing filenames because you're so autistic you're scared other even more autistic people will get angry at you
This is the most autistic post I've seen all day.

>all these Gurren Lagann homages

Heh, I keep imagining the ad bumper music from the show playing.

>>47873573
We couldn't stop the changing tide. They kept flowing in here.

>>47873573
How new are you?

>>47873573
It's content for something we like? Why the hell should we care where it comes from?

>>47873590
Anon, /co/ isn't my main board, neither is /b/ or /v/ (in before inevitable accusations). I actually think /co/ has gone to shit and don't respect the general consensus here at all.

This actually worked out really well in my favor. I was just posting a general opinion but I ended up getting a cap which I can post anytime the quality of modern /co/ comes up on the plethora of boards I post on.

>>47873645
Actually i'm not this guy, but holy shit 8 replies in 110 second update quit giving me so many caps.

>>47873573
Because I ship 4Chumblr

>>47873748
Your obsessions with caps feels a little autistic

Alright guys stop replying to the whiny pussy and just post more art

Fucking Christ you guys are babies, it's cool fanart, quit making a scene for no reason.

>>47873748
If it isn't your main board, why do you care if /co/ has gone to shit? And why do you need caps to prove that it has gone to shit? This behavior smells autistic.

>>47873770
>>It's only crack from that poor, dirty nigger over there? Why should I get it from that clean, gentlemanly nigger over there?


The problem with the analogy is that you are acting like the content itself is bad though. Which isn't the case.

>>47873748

>implying there's any board on 4chan that hasn't gone to shit

Well now that I think of it I got some good recipes off /ck/ i need to try

>>47873748
>hurr durr you're giving me more stuff to cap

You seriously can't be this autistic.

>>47873769
Hohoho
Those were the days

No seriously guys stop

>>47873851
Crack is good shit. Unless it's cut with some cheap shit and burnt around the edges.

>>47873805

Aye, aye, cap'n!

>>47873842
>>47873804
>And why do you need caps to prove that it has gone to shit?

Visual evidence is always nice. I've only posted on /co/ for 3 years but I've actually seen people argue that /co/ still hates tumblr when its brought up and thats just not true (hence the visual evidence). No one ever really makes the argument that liking tumblr is okay, thats something that is generally never considered true.

It doesn't matter if it's 4chan, Tumblr, deviantArt, or the bathroom wall at a Stuckey's. A fan is a fan is a fan is a fan. We're all people in the end, and Stuart Snyder is still CEO of Cartoon Network.

>>47873928
It's all circumstantial.
If I make a thread whining about tumblr, I will have people joining me.
But when someone tries to deface nice fanart because it came from tumblr, I'll call them retarded.

>>47873915
>not "Aya, aya, cap'n!"

Ya blew it.

It's okay. Here's more art.

Okay, looks like the site's stable now. GLTAS and YJ already have enough votes, so please vote for Motorcity if you can

>>47873928
You are. Absolutely. The most sad, autismal person to ever post on this board. Being this mad at tumblr makes you sadder than any tumblrite. I hope you stop wasting your time on this.

>>47873387
Oh god, it's totally Fire and Ice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G517qah4VvE

>>47874301
I'm not even sure what your trying to prove right now That's probably the most retarded analogy I have ever seen.

>>47874229
All I know is it comes up often enough and I can easily greentext

>/co/ really hates tumblr

And i'll post this image.
I'll probably also post

>IMPLYING IMPLICATIONS
Well, thats that I think i'll post now but by the time it comes up in a week or so on another board i'll probably forget that nuance.

>>47874314
>Being this mad
wut

>>47874290
Never watched it myself, but I know /co/ likes that show. You have my vote.

>>47874370

I KNEW IT. That took me like days to figure out

>>47874379
What I'm trying to say is that you're your body. No one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to.

>>47874418
Thank you!

>>47874290
>GLTAS and YJ already have enough votes

Seriously? GL wasn't even halfway there when it went down. It got them that quickly?

>>47874491
The article on the front page says that they hid big winners like GLTAS and YJ because they don't want the site to be overloaded again. They know that even if they put it up to a vote that there would be enough votes, so they're currently working on a decision.

>>47874491
They're saying it's because it got half, in addition to the influx of people coming in and crashing the site being more than enough to bring them back.

>>47874491
The only reason it was only halfway was because we fucked the site when we all swarmed to vote. Only that many went through, many more tried.

>>47874491
I think they want to finish the meeting with WB before proceeding
http://www.smgo.tv/categories/general-smgo-news/

>>47874449
and what does that have to do with calling someone retarded because they try to beat up on perfectly decent fanart because of it came from tumblr?

>>47874582
>try to beat up on perfectly decent fanart

1. This is the silliest concept i've ever heard of. You don't need to white knight fanart.

2. This didn't actually happen at any point.

>>47874490

>>47874582
That's not what you do. First, you say "No!" Then, you get out of there!

>>47874653
It was referencing the fact this whole shit started because someone said they loved tumblr because of the fanart they produced.
Even if it isn't a perfect replication of the events that took place, it still applies to the whole

that the whole discussion is about.

>>47874729
Man you're so clever.

>>47874656
He probably still has those knives

>>47874739
I don't believe saying you shouldn't like tumblr necessarily implies that the fanart is bad.

You shouldn't like deviant art either but yes I suppose there is some good artwork in there if you got yourself a microscope and looked really hard.

>>47874825
You can suggest it if you want

>>47874739
seriously, who gives a shit?

>pretend this is an imageboard.
>post some images.
>relax.

>>47874907
I did.

Nice work everyone.

>>47874892
There's more shit in the world than diamonds.
That doesn't mean diamonds are worthless.
In fact, that's what makes diamonds worth something.

>>47874943
Well then get more people to suggest it then

>>47875088
Someone needs to send this to Grey Delisle and see if she'll sing it on Vocaltwit.

>>47873573

It's okay, anon, /co/ still hates the cesspool that is tumblr. While there are certainly some things of merit (Like Nat's response to the SJ crew's critique of her image) the infestation of psycho feminists (nothing wrong with normal feminists, mind), the otherkin, the die cis scum, and so forth the crimes of tumblr are too great to be forgiven.

Add to that 90% of what's posted there is reblogs of reblogs and while some images are original many are taken and reposted from elsewhere, often without credit.

/co/ hates tumblr, and it's unfortunate that occasionally good things come from it, leaving it open for people to jump to its defense.

Also the Green Lantern fans are all tumblr invaders, if you couldn't tell.

>>47875022
Yes I suppose thats true but the existence of diamonds does not necessarily mean that the world is good. Especially when you consider the shit:diamond ratio.

I don't mean to get pretentious but I recommend you read Candide.

>>47875126
Look closely, Aya's not the one singing

>>47875182
I don't think anybody is saying tumblr is good though, just saying that you shouldn't dismiss good fanart even it is from tumblr.

>>47875194
I stand corrected. I did not see that. Thank you anon.

>>47875182
Well of course, but if you just take things for their value, it shouldn't really matter where something comes from.
Just to continue the shit:diamonds analogy.
If you found a diamond in a pile of shit in your toilet for whatever reason. It doesn't really matter where it came from, a diamond is still a diamond.

>>47875182
We should totally make our own website, where only good fanart is produced and posted.

Sooo...we apparently have enough votes (for something...)

Now what?

And thus my Facebook phobia has prevented me from doing something I actually quite care for.

>>47875374
Now we wait.
>>47875377
Just make an account dude, you don't have to use FB

>>47875374
now comes the crowd funding aspect.

>>47875331

What a juried process where users can view submitted images and vote on whether or not they're good enough to be saved and join the primary galleries?

>>47875331
So...Paheal?
huehuehuehue

>>47875374
We wait.

And hope.

Then we will probably wait some more.

>>47875331
Sucks good fanart is subjective.
Tumblr blogs try to get this done, but with how people hate tumblr, you can see how that doesn't work.

So i guess this is now redundant right?

Hope isn't trite anymore, right?

>>47875433
Hahah, 5 star post there!

SO did we win? I don't see where I can vote for GL or YJ?

Too much text, not enough fanart

post more fanart

>>47875552

Not yet, but the probability has solidified.

>>47873702
2007, long enough to rember when we were slightly better than this

>>47875552
Read the thread
or the site

>>47875588
You got it, Bucky
>>47875599

Founding phase in the explanation of how this works includes this bit:
>To become a Show Sponsor, simply select a reward pack that fits your needs (and pocketbook). These reward packs range from box sets and other show specific “swag,” to unique once-in-a-lifetime fan experiences, and nearly everything in-between. Some reward packs may contain limited edition/limited run items, and if you consider yourself a devout fan, we strongly encourage you to pledge early to secure these rewards. Show reward packs will be customized

So does this mean that if I choose to fund a show, that I get something tangible on top the chance for more episodes? Or is "swag" a purely virtual item in this context?

Because if I can buy the GL DVDs through this site to help fund a season 2, I'm totally going to do that.

>>47875897
It's green lantern
If they don't offer rings, I'll be sorely disappointed

>>47875897
Dude, forget DVDs. WHAT IF WE GET THOSE LITTLE FIGURES AND SHIT. LIKE THAT GOAT SAINT WALKER ONE.

>>47875897
>unique once-in-a-lifetime fan experiences
I'd love a tour of the studio, maybe get to meet the animators and watch as something is storyboarded

>>47875897
Yes, like Kickstarter
They'll need to get approval from WB first though

>>47876173
they already got it.

So it's like Kickstarter + Hulu?

>>47875999
No sir, I will not forget DVDs as I do not trust buying virtual media that is only accessible via stream and other such programs designated by the companies that release it.

>>47876211
No they haven't, they're meeting them on the 11th. The funding process will probably start after that

>>47876211
Do we know for sure?

Because if they did, that's basically confirming that this is saved because you KNOW it's going to get funded easily.

>>47873888
Wait what?

>>47875331
You just have to do it kind of like Pixiv or something.
The trick doesn't lie in making a heavily moderated site or one with strict rules.

Rather you do it through elaborate quality measuring algorithms that determines what entries ends up at the top and what entries ends up in the far, far back.
Algorithms that take views into account, ratings into account, favourites into account, etc etc.

Then you combine that by promoting actual images of quality, quality art-study material, and quality art-tools. Together with community events like contents and whatnot that provides actual prizes for the winners. Prizes often in the form of the aforementioned arts, study-material and or tools of quality, if not outright money.

Then you just hope it all doesn't go to shit anyway due to people circlejerking and over-voting furry shit or something.
Over-moderation and overly strict rules are a recipe for failure though. It simply won't be broadly appealing enough to be "fun" enough on a wide enough scale. You want to appeal to as many as possible and then promote the good, not intimidate the average person and hope that someone skilled jumps in anyway.

>>47876305
>Then you just hope it all doesn't go to shit anyway due to people circlejerking and over-voting furry shit or something.
It's impossible then. Look what happened to DA

>>47875137
Can i get a link to that Nat responce?

>>47876475

http://natazilla.tumblr.com/post/22797932401/leosboots-i-love-the-art-and-the-style-and-the

There was another nice post where one of the psycho feminists went off on MLP being part of the patriarchy or something and the first respondent saying, "Uhm... no." was Lauren Faust. But not sure where to find that one.

>>47876394
DA was more of a "drop any kind of art you make" kind of place.
It failed from not having from the get go and then upholding most of the stuff mentioned in >>47876305.

>>47876691
The opposite end of the spectrum is pretty much ConceptArt.org.
And it does have a notably higher quality standard, but that place isn't nearly open enough to be as productive as desired.

>>47876768
I heard elitism is also a big problem there. People being outright snobs to newbies and all that

>>47876297

Back in 2010, I think, 4chan and tumblr started to invade each other back and forth and ended up deciding to be fuck buddies

So YJ and GL aren't on the site...did we do it? Did hope prevail?

>>47877799
>The first thing you may notice (if you were in our beta) is that some shows are missing! Don’t panic! We know from our server overload, that the demand for those shows is well over what we needed to raise. To be respectful to the process and those involved, we have made those shows private until a decision is reached. We will keep you updated on as much as we can, as soon as we can.

They are past the voting stage and into the in-between negotiation phase with the studios to see if they will allow the funding phase to commence.

>>47876878
>elitism
That's pretty much what I meant by it not being open. It's fairly intimidating to newer artists.
Though it does admittedly have a higher standard, but as mentioned it comes at a price.

It's probably the best to lie somewhere in between deviantart and conceptart.
Though I don't think that's achieved through being elitist, but rather by being about as open as deviantart and then combining that by only promoting the quality stuff through algorithms, contests, and events.

>>47877980
You'd need to maintain a perfect community for that though, which is frankly not possible.

Pixiv is quite good. The extent of which it is maintained through is pretty much through showcasing good quality stuff and or rewarding it as well.
It's a gamble, but still. In the right conditions it's likelier to turn out decent than otherwise.

>>47879235
I'd rather have Jennifer Hale

Why do I not see Tron or GLTAS or YJ listed?

>>47879336
see >>47877943

Tron you need to tell them to put up there if you want it to be open to public votes.

It needs enough people to tell them there is an interest before there will be an open poll for Tron.

With no disrespect to YJ fans. I really fear that it will eat up all the potential funds that could have gone to GL:TAS.

>>47879442
Oh hey, thanks!

...should I bother writing in Tron or am I alone in that?

Send it in to them if you want it, the private votes are private, so you never know if yours will be the one that sends it into the next phase of public voting.

I pity the Mitsudomoe team.
Though the reasons for Danshi Koukousei is a bit special so I have doubts a fund-raiser would have any effect on it.

As much as it saddens me I fear my precious Chinese cartoons will stay down.

>>47880991
I was talking about the Lauren Faust thing.

>>47880200

Didn't it? Sorry, was misinformed. Saw it as an image capture that was in tumblr format. May have been someone copying, pasting, and reblogging and I didn't realize it.

>>47880406

If that exists I have no idea how to navigate tumblr to find it.

Did jump to her profile, though, "I am LeosBoots a 25 year old married lady who makes your movie projectors work. This is a stereotypical blog full of feminism, homestucks, animes, and rants."

Makes minimum wage at a movie theater, go her! Wonder if her husband gets paid more for an actual job. Wonder how much that burns her deep down inside.
