The '''Growing Tennis Chain of 2010''' or the '''Growing Poop Tennis CHALLENGE''' was a [[tennis]] [[chain]] where the number of seconds of each round was the same as its round number. In a way, this makes it inherently a rudimentary chain version of [[Additive Time Tennis]]. | The '''Growing Tennis Chain of 2010''' or the '''Growing Poop Tennis CHALLENGE''' was a [[tennis]] [[chain]] hosted by Pikalax1 starting on August 25, 2010 where the number of seconds of each round was the same as its round number. In a way, this makes it inherently a rudimentary chain version of [[Additive Time Tennis]]. | ||
The match continued slow but steady for 27 rounds until around April of 2013, when then-[[staff]] {{AshcrementVII}} locked the original thread. <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/4.html#post-4430102</ref> Two further "unofficial" rounds were created; one by {{GabrielPika}} in 2014 and another by {{aw8qn}} in 2022. {{aw8qn}}'s round 29 is where the match stands today, well short of the 15 minute goal originally proposed. There is a noticeably high ratio of tennis staff to non-staff for this chain; out of the 23 participants 10 of which (43%) were staff (or as high as 48% if {{TheFXExpert}} did not drop out). | |||
