===2012 - Tragedy, blunders, and plenty of Sauce=== | |||
In the earlier days, /gif/ was simply a boring team with the gimmick of having a bench filled with different versions of Sauce players (Gibe Sauce, Need Sauce, Source, etc.) - all their players also had the same blank custom faces and the same height. | |||
Due to the nature of the /gif/ player names, Germanbro made some commentary throughout early /gif/ matches about a certain Sauce Sr. who passed away after a long battle with illness. | |||
As the team was very slow to find some actual personality, the tactical aspect seemed to be respectable enough - /gif/ had topped their [[2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup]] group, but did not qualify for the Summer Cup. In the controversial system used at the time, teams were randomly chosen to be in playoffs, and with that, /gif/ were stuck in a playoff against /sci/ where they lost 1-0. | |||
The | The friendlies that followed mostly brought unmemorable displays. Not much more could be expected from an unmanaged team, but /gif/ did get an astonishing win over /k/, the [[2012 4chan Winter Cup]] champion. | ||
When the [[2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup]] came around, not much was expected from /gif/ in a group of teams with few (if any) fans. They did start off strong with a 4-1 win over /lit/, a team whose manager got a bit of infamy for putting a bunch of players out of position for this match. Everything fell apart for /gif/ during their match against /soc/. Management made all the difference here because /soc/ had a manager correcting mistakes and pulling off a great comeback. /gif/, on the other hand, could only be guided by {{greentext|PES}} and looked clueless after taking the 3-1 lead. | |||
In the last match for /gif/ in this cup, a managerless /adv/ completely humiliated them in a blowout. A manager had shown up shortly after this cup, but would disappear after posting in the /vg/ 4chan cup threads for just a few days. | |||
===2013 - Stuck in the babbies=== | |||
Until April 2014, /gif/ was completely inactive, and they returned to 4chan cup action with a win over /s/ in their only friendly just before the [[2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup]]. | |||
However, in the actual cup, /gif/ and /tv/ got the dubious distinction of being in the first cup opening match that ended up being a 0-0 draw. In the match that followed /gif/ saved a point with a late Sauce goal against /po/. Though /gif/ could dare to dream with the two points they had, the mighty {{greentext|/vp/}} eliminated them. It was in this match that /gif/ used the Bogs Bonny goalhorn for the first time. The reason for this was that a short-lived manager took over for /gif/ and left some time after the loss to /vp/. | |||
A while before Autumn, /gif/ found management from {{Anonymous|Belugah}}. During this time, /gif/ ditched the boring gray kits in favor of new ones that had the shocked Bugs Bunny face and carrots all over. | |||
This new /gif/ was rolling into the [[2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup]] with momentum - they had two wins in a row before the cup and got a win in their cup rematch against /tv/. Then a {{greentext|PES}} controversy came into play. | |||
/gif/ lost 3-6 to /s/, and later drew 3-3 against /hr/. The point from the last draw set up a dramatic final stage of the group: if /tv/ beat /s/ 4-0, then /gif/ and /s/ would finish equal (2nd and 3rd place) on all stats including goals for, goal difference, etc. | |||
And yep, you guessed it (or watched it): /tv/ managed the 4-0 victory that sparked the controversy and rule defining choice of who should advance, /gif/ on alphabet abuse (coming first in the alphabet since this is what {{greentext|PES}} was actually going to do), or /s/ on the head-to-head (beating /gif/ 6-3). | |||
After debate, it was decided that head-to-head prevailed, and /gif/ admitted defeat to /s/ to keep them in 3rd place and out of winter. | |||
Despite a very exciting run of matches, the fact remained that /gif/ was still stick in the babbies. Until... | |||
===2014 - Finally in the major cups === | |||
/gif/ advanced into [[2014 4chan Winter Cup]] cup along with /asp/ through the lack of a PES 2014 export from either the manager of /pol/ or /fa/. Seeing as though the team had an export from the 2014 Winter Friendlies and were one of the two closest to advancing from the 2013 Autumn Babbies, /gif/ were placed into group D along with /mu/, /gd/ and /u/. | |||
The dream was finally a reality, but it got off to a boring start: /gif/ drew 0-0 with /u/ in their first match in a top 4chan cup. In a strange twist of events, /gif/ got propelled to the top of the table after beating a rigged /gd/ 4-0. Despite putting 3 in in the first half and Sauce adding another hat trick to his name, the main focus was on the intentional throwing of the game by /gd/'s manager. Said manager was subsequently banned from all interaction with the cup. | |||
Following a /u/ defeat to /gd/, /gif/ was already secured in a top two position, with a win or draw putting them above /mu/. A well fought goal by Source put the team after half an hour and set the side on the way to victory. A great showing from the red conditioned number 1, 'Sexy Celebs', kept the dominant /mu/ at bay until Is This Real? sealed the deal with a late cheeky lob to set /gif/ happily on the top of the table. For the first time in their history, /gif/ was in the round of 16 of a major 4chan cup. | |||

Unfortunately, the dream came to an end here: /gif/ lost out to a better, more experienced team in /toy/. It was a hard-fought match that went to extra time, but Madoka Titus gave /toy/ the only goal they needed at the 96th minute. | |||
After reaching the Round of 16 in Winter, /gif/ were invited to their first ever summer cup. The heat couldn't be higher, being drawn into group H alongside /toy/; the side that put an end to /gif/'s winter run, fan favorite /tg/, and an unpredictable /po/. | |||
Following a forgettable draw with /po/, /toy/ had little trouble beating /gif/ 2-0 in their rematch. There was still some hope of avoiding relegation despite this poor form - /tg/ had lost their previous two matches and were already out of the cup. | |||
Despite that, /gif/ choked when it mattered. Their last hopes of reaching the knock-outs were crushed by /tg/, who with an absent manager and nothing to lose, left their sliders down to the hearty roll of their trusty d20.

Sorry for no custom faces but >me in charge of into PES. I have tried, and failed many, many times.
Introduction
Adult GIF is 4chan's board of crushed dreams, broken hearts and ruined egos. So if you ever do fancy watching some people have sex and don't know what to look for on your favourite site; pay /gif/ a visit, and you will find something to fulfil your appetite. Just don't expect much help to find the full video.
After their founding after the winter 2012 cup; /gif/ have never really amounted to much more than a team whose games can be treated as a time to go and stock up on snacks.
Their slow, boring play however saw rise to the legend that came to pass as the legend of Sauce Senior: The father to the original 5 Sauce brothers who filled up the front line of /gif/. After losing a long fight with cancer, his spirit now watches over the players of the team that continues to battle to finally take their place amongst the elite 32 and try for the winter and summer cups.
The team anthem is /gif/fy Lube (Jiffy Lube commercial).
The goal horn is Bogs Bo-ASS! TITTIES! ASS N' TITTIES!

History
2012 - Tragedy, blunders, and plenty of Sauce
In the earlier days, /gif/ was simply a boring team with the gimmick of having a bench filled with different versions of Sauce players (Gibe Sauce, Need Sauce, Source, etc.) - all their players also had the same blank custom faces and the same height.
Due to the nature of the /gif/ player names, Germanbro made some commentary throughout early /gif/ matches about a certain Sauce Sr. who passed away after a long battle with illness.
As the team was very slow to find some actual personality, the tactical aspect seemed to be respectable enough - /gif/ had topped their 2012 4chan Spring Babby Cup group, but did not qualify for the Summer Cup. In the controversial system used at the time, teams were randomly chosen to be in playoffs, and with that, /gif/ were stuck in a playoff against /sci/ where they lost 1-0.
The friendlies that followed mostly brought unmemorable displays. Not much more could be expected from an unmanaged team, but /gif/ did get an astonishing win over /k/, the 2012 4chan Winter Cup champion.
When the 2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup came around, not much was expected from /gif/ in a group of teams with few (if any) fans. They did start off strong with a 4-1 win over /lit/, a team whose manager got a bit of infamy for putting a bunch of players out of position for this match. Everything fell apart for /gif/ during their match against /soc/. Management made all the difference here because /soc/ had a manager correcting mistakes and pulling off a great comeback. /gif/, on the other hand, could only be guided by >PES and looked clueless after taking the 3-1 lead.
In the last match for /gif/ in this cup, a managerless /adv/ completely humiliated them in a blowout. A manager had shown up shortly after this cup, but would disappear after posting in the /vg/ 4chan cup threads for just a few days.
2013 - Stuck in the babbies
Until April 2014, /gif/ was completely inactive, and they returned to 4chan cup action with a win over /s/ in their only friendly just before the 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup.
However, in the actual cup, /gif/ and /tv/ got the dubious distinction of being in the first cup opening match that ended up being a 0-0 draw. In the match that followed /gif/ saved a point with a late Sauce goal against /po/. Though /gif/ could dare to dream with the two points they had, the mighty >/vp/ eliminated them. It was in this match that /gif/ used the Bogs Bonny goalhorn for the first time. The reason for this was that a short-lived manager took over for /gif/ and left some time after the loss to /vp/.
A while before Autumn, /gif/ found management from Belugah. During this time, /gif/ ditched the boring gray kits in favor of new ones that had the shocked Bugs Bunny face and carrots all over.
This new /gif/ was rolling into the 2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup with momentum - they had two wins in a row before the cup and got a win in their cup rematch against /tv/. Then a >PES controversy came into play.
/gif/ lost 3-6 to /s/, and later drew 3-3 against /hr/. The point from the last draw set up a dramatic final stage of the group: if /tv/ beat /s/ 4-0, then /gif/ and /s/ would finish equal (2nd and 3rd place) on all stats including goals for, goal difference, etc.
And yep, you guessed it (or watched it): /tv/ managed the 4-0 victory that sparked the controversy and rule defining choice of who should advance, /gif/ on alphabet abuse (coming first in the alphabet since this is what >PES was actually going to do), or /s/ on the head-to-head (beating /gif/ 6-3).
After debate, it was decided that head-to-head prevailed, and /gif/ admitted defeat to /s/ to keep them in 3rd place and out of winter.
Despite a very exciting run of matches, the fact remained that /gif/ was still stick in the babbies. Until...
2014 - Finally in the major cups
/gif/ advanced into 2014 4chan Winter Cup cup along with /asp/ through the lack of a PES 2014 export from either the manager of /pol/ or /fa/. Seeing as though the team had an export from the 2014 Winter Friendlies and were one of the two closest to advancing from the 2013 Autumn Babbies, /gif/ were placed into group D along with /mu/, /gd/ and /u/.
The dream was finally a reality, but it got off to a boring start: /gif/ drew 0-0 with /u/ in their first match in a top 4chan cup. In a strange twist of events, /gif/ got propelled to the top of the table after beating a rigged /gd/ 4-0. Despite putting 3 in in the first half and Sauce adding another hat trick to his name, the main focus was on the intentional throwing of the game by /gd/'s manager. Said manager was subsequently banned from all interaction with the cup.
Following a /u/ defeat to /gd/, /gif/ was already secured in a top two position, with a win or draw putting them above /mu/. A well fought goal by Source put the team after half an hour and set the side on the way to victory. A great showing from the red conditioned number 1, 'Sexy Celebs', kept the dominant /mu/ at bay until Is This Real? sealed the deal with a late cheeky lob to set /gif/ happily on the top of the table. For the first time in their history, /gif/ was in the round of 16 of a major 4chan cup.
Unfortunately, the dream came to an end here: /gif/ lost out to a better, more experienced team in /toy/. It was a hard-fought match that went to extra time, but Madoka Titus gave /toy/ the only goal they needed at the 96th minute.
After reaching the Round of 16 in Winter, /gif/ were invited to their first ever summer cup. The heat couldn't be higher, being drawn into group H alongside /toy/; the side that put an end to /gif/'s winter run, fan favorite /tg/, and an unpredictable /po/.
Following a forgettable draw with /po/, /toy/ had little trouble beating /gif/ 2-0 in their rematch. There was still some hope of avoiding relegation despite this poor form - /tg/ had lost their previous two matches and were already out of the cup.
Despite that, /gif/ choked when it mattered. Their last hopes of reaching the knock-outs were crushed by /tg/, who with an absent manager and nothing to lose, left their sliders down to the hearty roll of their trusty d20. None of that mattered as they went ahead, and defended the lead. /gif/ sat bottom of the group and finished one above bottom in the final rankings.
2014 4chan Summer Cup Aftermath: Is this the end?
Weeks passed after the cup ended, and Tottori !!sRN5AxsnGLL was announced as the new commissioner of the 4chan cup. With this came a load of changes that meant certain teams would be dead sleepy. Namely, the fact that now managers would need to use a central site to manage rosters and do polling, among other things that would be added later.
In other words, fans would have to actually get involved with their teams now, instead of just having the manager do everything with little to no fan input.
It should be noted that in the past, /gif/ was almost killed during the transition from the old 4chan cup wikidot to implyingrigged. What was said earlier about /gif/'s group in the 2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup was no exaggeration, those teams really had very few fans, and to this day, that hasn't changed.
Seeing the writing on the wall, Belugah left the team and /gif/'s future in the cup looks bleak.
