How to nominate?

• To nominate a character, a user must include their name, picture, and series in their post. Nominating 2 or more characters in a single post is not allowed.
• All characters must either originate from /co/ media: Western animation and comics
• Each valid nomination must garner at least nine (9) replies in order to qualify for the contest. These replies are only counted if they are all within a single thread, and do NOT carry over to other threads.

Eligible Nominees

• All female /co/ characters (except those listed under "Excluded characters" shown below)
• Any character that was allowed or has appeared in past Ms. /co/ tournaments (Grandfather Clause)
• Characters can be any age
• Puppets are allowed (e.g. Muppets, Sesame Street)
• Generalization Statute: Multiple versions of the same character --- be it from various adaptations, spin-off series, or alternative universes --- are combined into a single entrant. In other words, you are voting for the entire history of that character, not just one particular iteration.
  • Example: Zatanna (DC Comics, Young Justice, DC Super Hero Girls, etc.)
• Character Limit: Each series can only have a maximum of three (3) girls in the main bracket. These are decided by their votes in the qualifying poll. However, there is no restriction on the number of girls that can be nominated from a single series.
  • Exceptions: Marvel Comics, DC Comics, and Disney core universe characters + related series (Mickey, Oswald, Goofy, and Donald)

Restrictions

• Any character that is clearly not /co/ is not allowed (e.g. /a/nime and live action shows)
• /v/ideo game characters that did not originate from /co/ media are not allowed
• Real-life politicians that are portrayed as cartoon characters / caricatures are not allowed, satirical or otherwise.
• No /mlp/ characters
• No Board-tans
• No "OC donut steels"
• No meme creations (e.g. Virgin vs Chad)
• One-Month Old Clause: Any character debuting from the 1st of the previous month to the start date are ineligible.
  • Which means that new cartoons or comics released from August 1, 2021 and later cannot be nominated.
• Grandfather Clause: All characters who have previously made it into Ms. /co/ or Mr. /co/lympus tournaments, and are not banned by the Elite 8 rule, are eligible to participate regardless of the above restrictions. (Examples: Dr. Eggman Dr. Eggman, Saxton Hale, JFK, Wendy's, Princess Zelda)

Excluded Characters

Elite Eight Rule: Characters appearing in the quarter-finals of the previous contest are not allowed to compete in this edition. They will be eligible for nomination in the next contest.

Qualifying Results

Pre-Tournament

Most discussion prior to the tournament was conducted in plus4chan's pre-tournament thread, as any thread about the /co/ntests in 4chan (hype threads, discussion) is removed by janitors. Because of this, some anons feared the possibility of the tournament being derailed or cancelled. A plus4chan developer named Black Hand considered creating a separate board dedicated for tournaments and related events, which was mostly met with approval from users. This new board was christened as /tnt/ (Tournaments & Events).

On the day of the contest, the main threads created by organizer stats anon went normally as planned, save for one nomination thread that was banished to the /trash/ (off-topic) board by a mod. The organizer also posted nomination threads on plus4chan under a different tripcode just in case the 4chan threads went down. All nominees were selected from both websites.
