Tag-team Tournament 2021

The Two's a /co/mpany Tournament 2021 is the third edition of the all-genders /co/ duos competition, hosted on the plus4chan imageboard similar to the prior year's tournament but there were multiple attempts to host the tourney on the /co/ board. TagTeamAnon !iho9VEaVKs was unable to host this tournament due to quote "both school and work buttfucking [him] in terms of scheduling" and similar to Stats anon !!rkK6EtYmPFl dissapearance (or presumably his death) when the scheduled tourney date arrived, confusion was made regarding who would be hosting the tourney and if the tourney would even happen. This confusion was bolstered by [Temp Anon] !vHqM1sfAlM starting the nominations thread in plus4chan's /tnt/ board straight after King /v/ 2021 without an annoucement, timer, spreadsheet or even a tripcode at the time. Some semblance of organization was brought when fern avatarfag !ma9qovM58k stepped up to make a spreadsheet cataloging all the nominated teams.

This year saw the addition of the A.H Rule that establishes whose eligible from the online genre of "analog horror" due to /co/ allowing analog horror threads. Questions came up about the eligiblability of characters from said genre during the nominations, it was decided characters from "analog horror" are only allowed if they are exclipitly drawn, painted or animated and are presented as such.

Though nominations began December 6th 16:56 EST, the nominations were stretch over a few days due to the tournament having no annoucement and thus low participation, nominations ended December 10th, 8:00 EST and in those 4 days gathered over 270+ nominees. Although nominations ended on the 10th there was a grace period to allow campaigning and set up the polls for the first time hosts. During this time fern avatarfag !ma9qovM58k officially left work on the tournament, leaving sole hosting work to [Temp Anon] !vHqM1sfAlM. Qualifiers offically began on December 10th, 10:00 EST, an hour behind schedule. Under [Temp Anon] !vHqM1sfAlM the tourney was woefully mismanaged with it taking days for the qualifer results to be released, due to this Dominos Anon !w86bRI0tYM a more experianced host stepped in to create the round 1 poll along with new hosts Numnuts Anon  !0f1ZB4Rf.A directly helping him
