Another winter ball has been coming up (last one being in 2012), and after seeing a thread about it earlier, I thought it'd be good if we had a more "in-house" thread.

>What's a winter ball?
boards ask other boards to a fictional ball, and then the boards spend time interacting with each other while art is made of their tans (interacting with each other. Though it's called "winter" ball, apparently the thing's going down on the 30th.

>What are board-tans?
Comical, anthropomorphic forms of the boards used in art, a better explanation here: http://shimmie.4chanhouse.org/index.php?q=/wiki/about

>What's the deal?
From what I can gather, /v/ believes that we're with them, while some anons on here believe that we should try to go along with /u/, who's also going with /c/ and /cgl/, and create a sentai-esqu team, like power rangers or sailor scouts
Then there's always the option of choosing another board or just opting out altogether.
