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).
 
The rules of the match according to Pikalax1 were as follows:
 
<small>
"Each round can be no more than one second (30 frames) longer than the previous round.<br>
The amount of the previous round that gets rendered into the next round should be at least 75% (3/4). <br>
At least one new visual or audio source must be added in each round.  <br>
This match will end when we reach 15 minutes, or when we feel like cutting it off.  <br>
There is no limit to the number of people who can participate, but there are to be no lateral branches. <br>
Each new round must be listed as a response to the previous video.  <br>
The video must also be posted in the thread on [[YouChew]] (link above)."</small><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1Ugn3JApk</ref>
 
The match's order was relatively stable up until round 23 was released by Pikalax1 in July of 2011<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/3.html#post-3207282l</ref>. The initial player list afterward was listed as:
 
24. {{CaptainStringCheese}}<br>
25. SergeantBacon<br>
26. JackTron7000<br>
27. Ad4ptX<br>
28. {{IceSumo}}<br>
29. {{FXexpert}}<br>
30. Luioigi<br>
31. {{vel_17}}<br>
32. {{IceSumo}}<br>

However following many player retirements as well as computer troubles from {{CaptainStringCheese}}<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/3.html#post-3838162</ref>, this order changed dramatically with only {{vel_17}} actually making their round, now moved to round 25.
There are 29 rounds so far.
