This idea was brought up by Ghostlightning as something we could run between rounds.
We need two bloggers who have advanced to Round 4 of the tourney. These two bloggers then pick a team of 3 other writers. The 2 teams now make their version of THE ULTIMATE POST. The topic of choice in entirely up to the blogger himself. The only limitation shall be that the post must be kept under 2500 words. These posts will be put up on the Aniblog Tourney website in between Round 4 and the Quarter Finals. Then, in classic Aniblog Tourney style, the readers will vote on which post they prefer.
To apply just leave a comment. The writers you choose don’t have to be in the tourney or even own an anime blog. The bloggers leading the two teams will be chosen come on a first come, first served basis. The date the posts have to be completed by is 23rd June, when Round 4 ends. The winner of the poll has no effect on any of the matches in the Aniblog Tourney proper, it’s just something fun to have between rounds. If we are unable to get 2 bloggers from Round 4 then we will scrap this whole idea, sulk in a corner and put up a bunch of silly polls instead.
Polls closing tomorrow: Kurogane’s Anime Blog vs Mono no aware and Mainichi Anime Yume vs Eye Sedso
Fuzakenna! 57% vs 43% Josh’s Anime Blog
Reverse Thieves 49% vs 51% Hashihime
Fuzakenna and Hashihime advance to face each other in Round 4
Ooh! How about Kurogane with Kljigen, Lupus and tj_han? Oh wait…
Not applying, but I think this will be quite interesting to see. I hope this idea goes well!
The ultimate post? to answer life, the universe, and everything? We need more than 2 characters for that?
Seriously, more boundary lines required xP
This is an intimidating challenge. I don’t think I could write the ultimate post with teammates holding me back.
I could win, even with Baka-Raptor holding me back.
I want Baka-Raptor, ghostlightning, and Shin.
I had given up hope on anyone taking up the call…
Right, first spot taken. Now we need one other person to respond to the call up
ghostlightning, please take responsibility.
The potential for self-destruction is too entertaining. But yes, this is all my fault.
Who’s going to stand up against digiboy though?
All the tough guys (who are also bloggers) who clamor for smack in these comments sections. Digiboy just called you out. Show up!
Yeah, if you replace me with ADayWithoutMe (Irony) then this was actually the team ghostlightning planned to use if we went through with it. If he had, my team would have been 2DT, Shinmaru, and ETERNAL for the most tl;dr post of all time.
2DT will keep you within 500 words ;D
I feel this poll is going to need a “none of the above” option..
This should be fun to watch. I like DigitalBoy’s pick of a dream team.
Someone better step up god damn it, we’ve already started working on this post!
So ronery!
I would like to volunteer 2DT, Yi, and Aorii kthnx bai
2DT and Aorii’s brilliance will be hampered by my overuse of random HUGE ecchi images and underuse of deep analysis.
Preemptive failure: team collapses over squabbling on art accompaniment
Seaslugs, THAT, and Starcrossed could write the greatest episodic post evar.
Perhaps, how though. Hahaha ^_^. I think this whole thing is fun, but I doubt I am much fun in the first place. I do have something up my sleeve for the next round though. It’s how I show my love of Baka-raptor
fuck, couldn’t seaslugs or THAT have an entire team just of themselves? lol
I think THAT could do this entire competition with just THAT writers…
I think THAT could do this entire competition with just former THAT writers…
We possibly could, but lol, I don’t really know the whole point of this… :> I leave it to the more intelligent anime bloggers. =/

Look, I’ll be honest. And this not just me. Most people think that this is a stupid idea, and also, pretty much nobody gives a ****. So why not just accept that this was a bad idea, and move forward?

I personally think a series of anonymous posts in the vein of “guess the blogger from this post” could be more fun. Especially if someone puts up prizes.
If you want to guess, guess the geass! I will reveal who I am if anyone guesses right.
Scamp
That’s not a very cool prize
@Taka
Must you insult my intelligence? lol
@geass
wtb hint
And yes I must because I think it’s pretty dumb
Affinity for puns points to someone from SSAB but I don’t know anyone who isn’t fond of Scamp over there. Lack of creativity points to random commenter I wouldn’t know if a name was actually given.
Kurogane and Jinx have some distinct unfortunate feelings towards Scamp but I would personally consider guessing them a insult to their intelligence.
I originally guessed Scamp because:
geass related though that turned out to be a red herring
is goofy enough to do something like this
actually reads the comments frequently
I don’t think it’s RP or Mef who would be the only two I would construe having close to same qualities as scamp, though I’m not sure about the implied insult to scamp…could just be more goofiness.
As a wild card hunch I would guess Kairu but I don’t really believe that’s who it is.
If I wanted to criticise, I wouldn’t be hiding behind a random pseudonym.
Don’t give up hope yet—I might be able to help you kids out a little, with my ninja info cards!
Sorry man, but I beat you to it.
