History

Founding

With the end of the 2012 Summer Cup, much new blood entered the world of unprofessional simulated football. One of these teams was /c/. Originally founded in a thread on the board itself by a man known as John McHill (later found out to be Sexcopter !!DmLjci16Djv, manager of /soc/), the resulting discussion formed the backbone of the team. However, after a few days John had suddenly decided that he would not be able to manage. Alone and managerless, it looked bleak for /c/ before the team even began.

But then came a certain tripfag; Trofflesby !!fPFxZBomxK6, or when posting in regards to /c/ /c/har Aznable !!fPFxZBomxK6, decided to step up and take over. Only being a productive supporter of /m/, he had absolutely no idea what he was doing, but was determined to learn how to lead his squadron of little girls to glory.

And thus, the team had been built up from its foundation. First a logo, then kits, then finally faces for all players followed. With their unorthodox "Lucky Star" 4-5-1 formation as well as their extremely short player heights, they were determined to go out there and win games like no other team of kawaii girls could.

The 2012 4chan Autumn Babby Cup

/c/'s first official games were in the 2012 Autumn Babby Cup Friendlies, where they played against /b/, /d/ and their older sister /u/. Unfortunately, /c/ won none of these games; with the first two games being 0-0 draws and the last being a 3-0 loss.

Not letting these disappointing results squash their hopes, they went into the Autumn Babby Cup, going up against /an/, /y/ and their brother /cm/. /c/ lost against /y/ on the first day. Having scored no goals at all in their first four games, hopes of accomplishing glory faded away. After being unable to achieve victory in the next two games, /c/ were without a doubt out of the competition. The only thing they had accomplished in the cup was denying /an/ a spot in Winter and getting /cm/ a chance in the knockout rounds.

After the cup, their manager had disappeared almost overnight, not even leaving a message of resignation. Needless to say, nothing much happened in the following months. However, during the Winter Cup Friendlies some passionate fans were still able to hope to see /c/ achieve their first win; against /u/. The miracle never happened, as the result was a 2-2 draw. /c/ also played in the Weeabowl, where they lost to /cm/ after getting 1-1 in full time but letting up three goals in extra time.

A New Manager and a New Hope

/c/ was going nowhere fast. Without a manager, they would have no hopes of getting a good formation and scoring victories. However, during the interim, the aptly named Interim-tan !!wpQ05LyJC9u took over the team in hopes of leading them to glory while awaiting the return of their original manager.

/c/'s Gold Striker Karin was sacked during this period, and was replaced by the formerly benched Yotsuba. Hanako and Yuno joined the team as new recruits, while Madotsuki was transferred to /jp/. Hoping that the switch to 2013 and to the GGSS system would lead to better results, things started looking a bit brighter for the team. /c/ was changing. Gone was the abysmal star shaped formation. Gone were the height impaired players. Would these changes lead to their much sought after first win?

The 2013 4chan Spring Babby Cup

After months of disappointment, trials and tribulations, it finally happened. Under the leadership of Interim-tan, /c/ had accomplished their first ever win in the 2013 Spring Babby Cup Friendlies, winning 4-1 against /r9k/ after losing the first friendly against the formidable /3/. With the happening finally happening, /c/ marched on toward the Spring Babby Cup with their heads held up high.

Before the start of the cup, their former manager Trofflesby returned from the dead. However, due to his general incompetence during the past cup, he entrusted the team to Interim-tan.

In the babby cup, /c/ first fought against the managerless /b/, and were able to pull of another curbstomp victory, winning 4-1 yet again. For the first time since their conception, it seemed as if /c/ had a chance of entering a major cup.

/c/ then faced the newly managed /fa/. Though they fought hard, they were not able to avoid losing. However, due to their win against /b/, they were second in the group and had a great chance of advancing, as they were going up against a shaken, dying /co/ in the next round. A /co/ with a newly resigned manager and with a loss against /b/ on their backs.

However, things did not go the way of /c/.

/b/ pulled off an upset victory against /fa/ due to their former manager returning in the last minute. With this result, /c/ needed to win against /co/ to advance. The unthinkable happened. /co/ had scored 3 goals and had wrecked the team, as well as their hopes of entering Summer. /c/ lost the game 1-3, after a goal by Miku and a penalty save by Hinata, a save that kept /c/ out of the last place of the group. Had /fa/ won against /b/ in the previous match, /c/ would have advanced on goal difference. Bad luck and overconfidence spelled the end to /c/'s hopes of advancing to the summer cup.

The Impact of Dragongate

In late May of 2013, it was revealed that Dragonfag, the manager of /n/, had been pretending to be seventeen different people, controlling many teams in the cup by himself. This led to a huge shake up in the cup, with teams' entire histories being altered and teams being promoted and relegated from the upcoming summer cup. It also led to Dragonfag himself receiving a life time ban from the cup. Thankfully, /c/ had never been managed by Dragonfag. However, the team had been very much affected by the whole affair. In the 2012 Autumn Babby Cup, /c/ had been in a group with three teams controlled by Dragonfag, thus making the chances of /c/ advancing miniscule at best. Luckily for /c/, the relegations of Dragonfag controlled teams led to /c/ being promoted into the 2013 4chan Summer Cup, thus making the rigged Autumn cup less devastating to the team. This meant that for the first time ever, /c/ was in a major cup.

The 2013 4chan Summer Cup

The preseason of summer went well for /c/. The team won several matches in the DrBorisG Friendlies and M3ow League and came fourth in the Tottoric Up. They also did well in the official friendlies, beating elite team /fit/ and losing narrowly to /f/ after being rigged by the commissioner. During this time, the team also signed Tomoko Kuroki, only to transfer her off to /a/ in an unpopular move. Other new arrivals to the team were Momiji, Miho, Mikasa, Rei Q and Sayaka, who replaced Tomoko after the transfer. Signing Sayaka would prove to be fitting, since suffering awaited the team.

The cup started with /c/ being drawn into a group that looked very challenging on paper. Winter cup finalists /toy/, spring semi-finalists /x/ and the elite team /mu/. Not many people expected /c/ to be able to move out of this group, but the management team and fans believed. The first match was against /x/, and it started out well. A throughball to Konata put the little girls in the lead, and it looked like three points were in the process of being secured against the dead team. Then /x/ tied the game, and in the last ten minutes, three more were scored in rapid succesion. Getting blown out by arguably the worst team in the group was a terrible start, and things looked even bleaker than before.

The next game was one against /mu/, the giants. /mu/ had already beaten /toy/ in the first game, and due to an abandoned /toy/ drawing their game against /x/, a win or draw was needed by /c/ to stay in the running. It started poorly. Jeff Mangum scored a brace in the first half and the team looked to be completely dead. But something happened. /c/ started performing in the second half and fired shot after shot against the /mu/ goalkeeper. However, a seemingly superhuman effort by Merzbow kept /c/ from scoring at all, and the game ended 2-0. The little team's dreams had been crushed, but the hardship for /c/ had only just begun.

In the next week it was found out that there had been something wrong with the commissioner's PES. This had led to strange results and live-managing and changes by teams seemingly not mattering at all. The cup had, once again, been rigged. The management of /c/ hoped for a restart of the cup to give them another, fair chance, but it was far too late. /c/ stayed relegated and the cup went on.

The third game was one against /toy/, the number one ranked team. Before the game, the /toy/ manager, with a chance to advance over /x/, decided to throw the game for reasons unknown. He subbed off all his medals and put every player in the wrong position, including an AMF in goal. Any chance to restore dignity for /c/ had been lost. However, that would prove to not really matter since the game ended 0-0 in what is most likely the worst match in 4chan cup history. And so /c/'s first visit to the big leagues ended in the worst way possible. The team had proven, once again, that being /c/ is suffering.

The 2013 4chan Autumn Babby Cup

Even after their extremely poor showing in the Summer Cup, and the departure of longtime manager Interim-tan !!wpQ05LyJC9u, /c/ was confident as they headed into their third Babby Cup, as they came off the back of a fair friendlies showing - beating /e/ and drawing with /cm/ - and dominating in the unofficial Halloween Bowl 2013. There were also more roster changes in line for the team; new signings were Kyouko Toshinou, Pleinair, Shinobu Oshino, and Maka Albarn.

The draw only caused further excitement; though their group had the redoubtable /adv/, it also had the dead team /po/, as well as /asp/ who, despite being favourites in the Foetus, had struggled to advance, and whom /c/ had just beaten 6-1 in the Halloween Bowl 2013.

This self-assurance continued following the first game; though it was only versus a managerless team, a 4-1 win against /po/, courtesy of goals from Konata, Miku, and Yotsuba, after a worryingly quiet first half, showed that /c/ was a strong side, and put them tied for first in the group with /adv/.

It was /adv/ that they played next, in a game that was heralded as the decider of who would top the group. Here things took a turn for the worse; /c/ conceded an early goal to S/adv/irgin, and despite fighting valiantly - valiantly enough to get more shots - they failed to capitalise on their chances and the game ended 1-0, the same score it had had since ten minutes in. This wasn't the worst news in the world, however; even with this loss, /c/ could still easily advance from the group with a win or a draw against fellow three-pointer /asp/, who had just lost 4-1 to /adv/. Things were looking promising for the team.

Going into the deciding match, /c/ was nervous but reasonably confident in victory, fully prepared to give it their all to secure a run in the Winter Cup. This aplomb was to be tested early, however, as once again they conceded a goal in the first ten minutes of the game, and, worse, failed to make anything happen for the next almost eighty minutes. Just when the /c/ouncil had all but accepted their defeat, in the 86th minute, Konata recieved a deft throughball and, defying /c/'s reputation for /c/hoking, slotted it neatly into the net. That was the end of the game; /c/ had managed to get into the main cup on their own merits for the first time.

/c/ then faced /fa/ in the round of 16, though these games seemed of less importance than the promotion they had already achieved. Perhaps fittingly, then, /c/ never managed to lead in the game, losing 2-1 to the eventual second place team. With this game over, both the /c/ team and its management could relax and celebrate their promotion into the major leagues, a promotion they secured with only a single victory. Funny how things go, isn't it?

The Future

After achieving their best result ever in the Autumn Cup and securing their advancement into the major leagues, the /c/ team is positive as they head into their first truly deserved major cup run. With the drama of the sacking of tester Nap Guy !!OELwpm3PWC7, on the grounds of a perceived lack of familiarity with the board, and the events of their run in the Weeabowl II behind them, they are, following an uninspiring but adequate set of friendlies, both confident and excited about the upcoming cup. The additions of Kudryavka Noumi and Yuno to the squad brought a new energy to the whole side, and the management hopes that the introduction of Korbo, a transfer from /a/, will have the same effect as they head into a promising group with both new, unfaced opponents and /x/, a team /c/ hold a grudge against since the events of .dll-gate came to light. With the announcement of the intended retirement of both of the managers, the whole team is hoping to give them the best send-off possible.

Rivalries

/u/ - The Purity Derby

/u/ and /c/ both love cute girls. However, on /u/ the cute girls also love each other and engage in lewd acts together, something that is frowned upon on /c/. While /u/ would call themselves the purest board on 4chan, this is clearly false, and the title actually belongs to /c/. This is bound to cause disagreements and threads can and will become arguments about whether an image of two girls kissing should be allowed on the board, since there are no definitive rulings on the matter. /u/ is also disgusted by the fact that heterosexual couples are allowed on /c/, since those relationships are deemed impure by the /u/ browsers. These things have lead to a rivalry between the nee-san and imouto that is unlikely to ever be resolved.

The teams have traditionally been very evenly matched in the rankings and have faced twice, both times in friendlies. The first time was a 3-0 blowout by /u/ in the autumn friendlies, and the second a 2-2 draw in the winter friendlies.

/cm/ - The Kawaii Bowl

/cm/ and /c/ are two boards who both love cute anime characters. Cute males are even allowed on /c/, provided they're together with a girl. This obviously leads to a friendly rivalry between the teams, who may seem like very similar boards. /c/ fans might be a bit turned off by the fact that /cm/ is a lot more homosexual than their female counterpart due to same-sex couples not being disallowed. There are also isolated incidents of /cm/ content being posted on /c/, but these things aren't nearly enough to prevent /c/ from being fond of their brother.

/c/ and /cm/ faced for the first time in the autumn babby cup group stage. /cm/ won in a 3-2 thriller, a win that was later declared illegitimate due to rigging. The teams also faced in the Weeabowl where /c/ lost in extra time after tying the game 1-1 in fulltime. The two teams faced again in the 2013 Autumn Friendlies in a very even game which ended 2-2 with /c/ taking the lead twice only to concede shortly after.

/b/ - /b/ pls go

An unlikely rivalry, these boards have basically nothing to do with each other. However, /b/ is a board that is known for spamming other boards and unfortunately /c/ has been one of the victims of this. Threads with 3D women, random pictures of food and images of black men are only some of what /b/tards post on the board. While the mod does a fine job in keeping the board clean, it is still an inconvenience to /c/itizens. The reason for this shitposting is probably a combination of the boards being neighbours and /c/ being a slow board, making it an easy target. This makes getting revenge on the shitposters on the pitch all the more sweet for /c/.

/c/ and /b/ have faced twice, once in the first game /c/ played, a friendly that ended 0-0, and once in the 2013 spring babby cup where /c/ thrashed the /b/tards with a 4-1 victory. However, after their win against /b/, /c/ went on to lose both their games while /b/ won both, meaning /b/ advanced over /c/. This made missing the advancement particularly painful, and /c/ longs for a chance to get /b/ back for it.

/asp/ - An Unexpected Storyline

As with /b/, this is another unforeseeable matchup; again, the boards have nothing in common, and, making this even less likely, /asp/ doesn't have /b/'s reputation for 'raids', nor are /asp/ and /c/ neighbours as /b/ and /c/ are. Indeed, the rivalry of /asp/ and /c/ comes solely from inside the 4CC.

It began with the Halloween Bowl 2013, where /c/'s temporary gold player Yuno obliterated /asp/, scoring six goals on her own in 40 minutes. The enmity between the teams was only increased when they were drawn in the same groups for the Autumn Cup, and skyrocketed when /c/ denied /asp/ a promotion to the Winter Cup. Following this, /asp/ beat /c/ in a tense friendly, but this didn't faze manager /c/rispy !!qwqbM6eX9rN , who was quick to further the rivalry through some confident banter. Now, with an invitational planned following the Winter Cup, the teams are looking to settle this story once and for all.

Results

As a consequence of the Dragongate controversy, a number of results have been vacated. Those matches, marked in Grey, have been voided, regardless of the original result.
