FAQ
Q: What is this? What the hell is Crump?
A: "My Son Crump, he has every disease" was a comment left on a video showcasing the Crumploid from Animal Crossing New Horizons (see banner). It became a mildly popular meme term for characters (a subset of blorbo, if you will)
Q: Okay but all these terms are very subjective, how are you defining what makes someone a crump?
A: I'm glad you asked, me. For the purposes of this tournament, if a character is your son crump, they have multiple things wrong with them. (Predominantly I'm talking psychological ailments but physical are fine too.) Whatever is their damage, it can't be explained without writing an essay. And they do this in a way that is deeply pathetic. (Both in a pejorative sense and in the classical sense of invoking pity) They do NOT have to be good, as long as they suck.
Q: How big a bracket is this? When is it going to run?
A: The submissions will close on May 3rd, and then the first round will likely start the following Monday, May 9th, because I am busy that weekend getting my Masters Degree so that I am legally within my right to demand you all call me Tourney Master. (this is a joke, except for the Master's degree that's real) Rounds will probably last for a week but I haven't decided yet. Size of the tourney will also be decided after I get all the submissions.
Q: What are the criteria for character submissions?
A: Characters can be from any genre (tv, movies, manga, games, whatever) as long as I can easily google an official art of them (or you can provide it). YOUR SON CRUMP DOES NOT NEED TO BE MALE. Real people are not allowed. I also reserve the right to turn down any submissions just because I don't like them. Most will be case by case, but any characters from Harry Potter, South Park, or Attack on Titan will probably be rejected.
Q: This is sounding biased!
A: Correct. I am going to be openly biased because it's a silly tumblr poll and it doesn't matter and people are getting way too up in arms about them. I will not rig the results but I will not pretend to be impartial otherwise.
