Playgirl of /trash/ 2024

"I love big boobs"
-Anon

Playgirl of /trash/ 2024 was the first female-centered tournament held entirely on the "Off-Topic" board of 4chan, /trash/. Following the previous year's Ms. /aco/ tournament being moved over to /trash/, following the Qualifiers round, it was decided to run such NSFW tournaments on /trash/, instead.

A total of 465 women were successfully nominated for the tournament, with 128 of these entering a seeded 128-character bracket after surviving the Qualifier round. Owing to /trash/'s reputation as a "furry board", most of the qualifying females were anthropomorphic in nature, with all but a couple non-anthro competitors being wiped out after Round 1.

In the end, first prize went to Krystal, a female fox from the Star Fox franchise. Krystal had a decisive win over the runner up, Ankha from Animal Crossing, toppling her opponent by a whopping 68.4%. Reception to Krystal's win was generally positive, and for the most part, so was reception to the tournament as a whole.

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 from live action media is not allowed (excluding puppets, as mentioned above).
• 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)
• No inanimate objects that aren't treated as distinct characters in their media of origin (based on a vote in the 2022 feedback)
• One-Month Old Clause: Any character debuting from the 1st of the previous month to the start date are ineligible.
• 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 Saxton Hale, JFK, Wendy's, Princess Zelda)

Other rules related to both the eligibility of trans characters and the amount of obvious joke characters are expected to be looked into following feedback on the final survey of 2022.

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 next contest.

Because of the decision of letting the Elite 8 of Ms. /aco/ 2022 in, no character was excluded this year.

Jenny Rule: Ms. /aco/ and previous Playgirl champions are permanently retired, and will be barred from participating in future tournaments.
