Growing Tennis Chain (2010): Difference between revisions

Line 36:

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]].

Originally hosted by Pikalax1 on August 25, 2010, 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.

The rules of the match according to Pikalax1 were as follows:

"Each round can be no more than one second (30 frames) longer than the previous round.

The amount of the previous round that gets rendered into the next round should be at least 75% (3/4).

At least one new visual or audio source must be added in each round.

This match will end when we reach 15 minutes, or when we feel like cutting it off.

There is no limit to the number of people who can participate, but there are to be no lateral branches.

Each new round must be listed as a response to the previous video.

The video must also be posted in the thread on [[YouChew]] (link above)."<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:
