'''{{VidTens443}} vs. {{dani_phantump}}''' is a YouTube Poop/Video [[YTP Tennis|tennis match]] that took place from November 18 to December 8, 2019. Taking place during the third set of the [[Tennis League 5]], the match had been highly anticipated by both of its players.<ref>https://ytpmania.net/t/tennis-league-fiv-cheers-to-razzy/4852/308</ref> While falling under the "[[Wildcard]]" ruleset for the set, the match took a different, "Very Experimental" approach by instead relying on [https://stoney.sb.org/eno/oblique.html a website implementing Brian Eno's Oblique Strategies] for every round (except round 2). The game was highly regarded for its time by both its players and audience, with some even calling for a "friendly tie" <ref>https://ytpmania.net/t/tl5-set-3-vidtens443-vs-dew-done-vote/5640/20</ref> out of respect. {{dani}}'s roster has the following retrospective commentary:

"The one match I played in this tournament that felt like a genuine challenge, and one I very much had to work for to win, which was so satisfying to pull off. VidTens came at me with some extremely specific wildcard restrictions for Round 2, but I otherwise used this match to invent a new variant called "Oblique Strategies Tennis", where rather than choose specific restrictions, these are chosen by an outside system that give no real direct instructions and are meant to be recreated interpretively. For three of the four rounds of this match we operated under these kinds of experimental conditions and I would say that the launch of this variant was a success. I need to actually play another match of this kind though!"<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fu92OzoP3Vabsju1MmXyvU-keTyfPDaaGjNMjUHwA_4/edit?gid=0#gid=0</ref>

The match uses a wide variety of sources, a majority of which were supplied by VidTens. Many sources were the result of a tournament-long "progression" where each match VidTens played in would build off the last.<ref>Discord conversation, 4/14/26</ref> Added TV and movies include ''Kukori Es Kotkoda'', the ''Kyorochan'' anime, a commercial for Coors Light, ''Garfield and Friends'', The ''Pokemon'' anime (particularly scenes from ''Diamond and Pearl'' and ''Best Wishes'' involving the Pokemon Riolu, Lucario and Mawile), ''Onegai My Melody'', ''Nichijou'', the pilot for ''A Kitty Bobo Show'' (2001), educational OVA ''Get Going! Godzilland - You Can Count! Counting 1-2-3!'' (1994), ''Limmy's Show'', and ''Unico and the Island of Magic'' (1983). Added YouTube and other web media include GetDustOff's infamous "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9B60dqDAho How to Properly Clean your Gaming Computer]" (2010), the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieYRxXXi1iM announcement] of ''Animal Crossing'''s Isabelle for ''Super Smash Bros Ultimate'' (2018), footage of a shirtless Korean man [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCUXY-oX7V8 smashing his window with a chair], and "[https://youtu.be/sCe-48XpKEI Leafy & Flare: Flash Fire Curse - Part 1]" (2011) by SmashLuigi25, predominantly a scene where an Espeon looks angrily at the camera that recurs throughout the match. Added video games include the BIOS screens for the Game Boy Advance and Phillips CD-i, ''Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga'' (GBA, 2003), ''Mario Teaches Typing 2'' (PC, 1996), and ''Okami'' (Wii, 2006). Daft Punk's "Aerodynamite" (2001) also makes an appearance in the final round, of which one of the final round's restrictions was to have the whole round synced to the song. Many tennis rounds from the current and previous leagues [[Tennis-Tennis|were also added]] as part of the restriction for round 2, including rounds from [[Sploltoen vs. laromande]] ([[TL4]]), {{CorruptionSound}} vs. {{Joltoen}} (TL4), {{GameBop}} vs {{CheeChee}} (TL4), and [[Mapo vs. Razerek (TL5)]].

It was the 67th match completed by VidTens443<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MUOn6Rx8vK7pc9FcYbdmYZ4vnHaGjTu96VviT3yv8Ho/edit?gid=0#gid=0</ref> and the 106th match completed by {{dani_phantump}}. The voting would be very close, but dani_phantump would come out on top with 11 votes to 9.<ref>https://ytpmania.net/t/tl5-set-3-vidtens443-vs-dew-done-vote/5640/12</ref> Both players would fare very well for the remainder of the tournament, with VidTens eventually making it to the final match. The match was compiled by VidTens on his "VidTens443 Tennis Matches" account on July 7th, 2020 as part of a yearly wave of match uploads VidTens was involved in.

Match of the Day

2026-04-13T14:45:50Z

Admin: /* List of MOTD Games */

The [[Match of the Day]] or '''MOTD''' is a program created by the [[Tennis Staff]] starting on November 2, 2025 to showcase various notable [[tennis]] games around the community, both past and present. Usually, every day a member of the staff offers to select a match which is posted to the Tennis Café as well as a dedicated channel in [[The Tennis Isles]] at the start of the day. These matches are usually compiled to channels like {{maniafax}} (if not done already) so players can watch the whole game in a single video.

The concept originated from a plan by {{dani_phantump}} to show a different match every day to {{infinitysnapz}}, who admitted to being unfamiliar with a lot of old tennis matches due to often keeping off of YouTube, and was soon after expanded into a regular community activity as a way to create a new bridge of knowledge with the history of tennis.

Match of the Day

2026-04-13T14:45:07Z

Admin: update to 4/13/26

The [[Match of the Day]] or '''MOTD''' is a program created by the [[Tennis Staff]] starting on November 2, 2025 to showcase various notable [[tennis]] games around the community, both past and present. Usually, every day a member of the staff offers to select a match which is posted to the Tennis Café as well as a dedicated channel in [[The Tennis Isles]] at the start of the day. These matches are usually compiled to channels like {{maniafax}} (if not done already) so players can watch the whole game in a single video.

The concept originated from a plan by {{dani_phantump}} to show a different match every day to {{infinitysnapz}}, who admitted to being unfamiliar with a lot of old tennis matches due to often keeping off of YouTube, and was soon after expanded into a regular community activity as a way to create a new bridge of knowledge with the history of tennis.

'''Boris Sapphire''', formerly known as '''GenArts Sapphire''' or simply '''Sapphire''', is a set of plugins by [[BorisFX]]. It is one of BorisFX's flagship effect suites, alongside products like [[Continuum]]. All Sapphire plugins have a "S_" prefix in their name. Sapphire's effects are well known for their colorful, easy-to-use qualities; this has made them very popular in the [[tennis]] world, coming to a peak in the late 2010's. Sapphire plugins were used so much during this time that many perceived them as being "overused", especially effects like S_ZebrafyColor that could instantly create "rainbow effects" without changing a single parameter. Despite this, Sapphire is still commonly used and is an important tool in any player's kit.

[[File:Sapphire watermark.jpg|thumb|right|The suite's watermark.]]

Sapphire is compatible with any [[OFX]]-capable editor, as well as Adobe products such as [[Premiere]] and [[After Effects]]. The official website can be found [https://borisfx.com/products/sapphire/ here.]

<youtube>rJP9oaEMvCk</youtube>

A '''Chain''' is a style of [[tennis]] that involves a very large (sometimes endless!) amount of players participating in the match. Unlike a [[Multi-Way Match]], chains lack patterns or rotations in their layouts; everyone goes in whatever spot they pick, and it ends once a certain number is reached or the amount of people runs dry.

=Layout=
* A player serves in whatever way they see fit.
* A ''different'' player makes the next round.
* A ''third'' player makes round 3. For vanilla [[Vs. Everyone]] matches, every odd slot will be the starting player.
* ...and so on. Chains either continue forever or until a certain number is reached, usually at least ten.

=History=
Chains are usually endless ongoing matches with no specific order of players in which anyone who wants to volley the next round can do so. The first chain was started by BMATF in 2007 and ended after 51 Rounds. The second chain was started by ShadowWario/FancySanta in 2008, which ended after 53 rounds. Every subsequent chain is still ongoing at the present time, including the 3rd Chain started by {{Architect1}}, the 4th Chain started by TheNeopreneJunebug, which is a specifically Pizza themed chain, the 5th chain started by {{GameBop}}, unlike the other chains {{Gamebop}}'s chain has no rules so you can feel free to edit anyone's video.

During 2014 the [[Snully Chain|Snully Series]] began, an Unofficial Chain that was started by Kyoobur9000. It beats most other poop chains with a total of 100 rounds, and as of today is still ongoing.

= Chain Types =
There have been many types of chains, other than the simple "vanilla" ones:

* [[Vs. Everyone]] - A match where one player volleys off many different people
* [[Endurance Chain]] - A match where (usually) two players do a 1v1 as long as possible
* [[Pyramid Chain]] - Every round is volleyed by two people up to a halfway point, at which every two rounds then becomes volleyed by one person, in which a rotation starting with a single video also ends a single video. Every group of volleying people to a previous round is divided by Tiers, which is represented by letters typically.

=Notable Chains=
==Canon Chains==
These chains are considered the "original" chains.

* [[Chain 1]] (also known as "Chain Poop")
* [[Chain 2]]
* [[Chain 3]]
* [[Chain 4]]
* [[Chain 5]]

==Other Chains==

YTP Tennis

YTP Tennis, also known as Youtube Poop Tennis, Video Tennis, Remix Tennis or simply Tennis, is a artistic medium derivative of [[Photoshop Tennis]] and [[Youtube Poop]] involving the back-and-forth editing of video projects, often absurdist in nature.

While starting mainly as a derivative of YouTube Poop, and in the early years much more embraced by the full Youtube Poop community, it has increasingly become its own thing as time went on and the community of mainline Youtube Poop and the community of tennis have grown largely seperate. Much of modern tennis is a completely different beast in comparison to [[Youtube Poop]], often veering into much more experimental, atmospheric, avant-guarde and generally much more overstimulating territory.

There are many different types of tennis that have evolved over the years, but the tried and true "vanilla" 6 round 1v1 has held steady just as much.

=History (work in progress)=
==Origins==
<youtube>nRB-O214ezg</youtube>

The idea of remixing another person's video can be supposedly traced back as early as April of 2007, when dvariano uploaded a video called "Elated Chronological Junctures" that was supposedly the first "[[repoop]]" video, and thus considered to be technically the first "Round 2" ever made. However the original video that he edited, made by a user named bahbugandhum, has yet to be found again. Alongside this, Photoshop Tennis already existed, and original YouChew admin conradslater was a fan and an avid participant of it; there exists evidence of him engaging the community with it as early as June of 2007. As someone who took YTP seriously enough to consider it genuine art at that time, the equation to put together the tennis format with video, especially YTP, seemed to be a natural one for him to make.

<youtube>9SZvloYgu-s</youtube>

The first full match, also the first time that tennis was ever applied to the medium of video entirely on the internet, was in the form of [[Conradslater vs Misselaineous10|Conradslater and Misslaineous10]], starting on August 11th, 2007 and ended on August 21st. In it's taking place, this match forth the full idea of someone doing a remix of someone else's video, and having the original maker do the same back, creating a "Tennis" like pattern. From this match onward the concept greatly expanded to great - and at the beginning considerably unimaginable - lengths of development and refinement.

==The Intitial "Freewheeling" Era (2007-2008)==

At first, there was hardly any tennis community in a well defined sense to speak of; tennis was at the very beginning considered to be a straightforward extension of the main community for YTP itself, and would be considered an intricately connected part of YTP during the years in which the use of that branding for video remixes was at its strongest and most dedicated. Much of the tennis matches that were played following the first one was thus done so in a way that would be seen by modern standards as very disorganized; it was engaged with in the same relative loose, anarchic and "shitposty" spirit as YTP at large, being considered among the body of "contests" that included early collaborations as designated on conradslater's "Vanilla" YouChew forums. That being said, there were a handful of notable early names that became early fixtures in the world of tennis: BMATF played the second ever tennis match with Markie, and UncleChuckTH played the third ever tennis match with conradslater (the latter's second match), and both UncleChuckTH and BMATF would continue to exist in the world of tennis until the early 2010s. TangerineImpz vs. SeductiveBaz was played entirely start to finish on August 21, 2007, the day that the final round of the first tennis match was uploaded, and this was for a very long time the fastest tennis match ever played; SeductiveBaz would also be an early fixture and continued to tennis in some capacity until a full 12 years later. Second only to conradslater's early activity in tennis was that of {{MrDrunkenFox}}, who played multiple early games including with Tentor, plex14, PapaGonzales and Furnessly. This latter player, along with other such players such as InsinerateHymn, JazzDanceForChildren, TyrannosaurusReich, MelvanaInChains, dvariano, Luioigi, {{strong414bad}}, ADHDYoshi, GameCubeHero, Intenseowl, MVJ5197, 3inchhorse, ELPSteel, SushieBoy, Vorhias, sonicnerd23, and SesakaGenX would also serve to play their own individual roles in defining the nature of tennis at its earliest onsets. Tennis is considered to have reached one of its first peaks in its intersection with "Robotnik YTP" at the time - videos that focused entirely on remixing episodes of ''[[The Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog]]'' and its main antagonist - in particular the matches of [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]](2007), the first ever match to reach ten rounds, UncleChuckTH vs. BMATF(2007), [[Stegblob vs. TyrannosaurusReich]](2007), and especially [[BMATF vs. UncleChuckTH vs. Wikiwow](2007). All of these would build a foundation for a strand of tennis that would eventually continue long separate from the main tennis community, which, although small, would localize and organize itself largely on the YouChew forums.

Aside from all of these other players however, one of the most important to come out of these first months was {{RabbitSnore}}, who played his first tennis match with real-life friend Thereisnospoon303, or TINS, in October 2007. Rabbit immediately came to develop a passionate and vested interest in tennis - the places that it could go and the ways in which it could develop - from the very offset of his entrance into it, and he sought to give the medium the attention and the analysis that it deserved through his initial position on the "Vanilla" YouChew forums as chief editor of the forum's "newsroom" - from October/November 2007 onward, Rabbit began his regular "Tennis Review" series of articles, with [[InsinerateHymn vs. PukingCyberman]] (2007), GameCubeHero vs. Intenseowl(2007) and [[Furnessly vs. MrDrunkenFox]] (2007) the first three matches he covered in this matter. He would contribute a "retrospective review" of conradslater vs. Misselaineous10 shortly thereafter, and it is from this point onward, largely through his insistence, that the importance and the nature of the first ever tennis match began to become recognized in the way it now is today.

His prominence in this activity and the quality of his articles for the time gained him the trust and admiration of Conrad himself, and he was able to use this sway to convince him to allow the tennis section to begin hosting its first [[tennis tournament]]s, with Gallers being the initial organizer of the first few to take place. After Rabbit had accumulated a respectable roster of completed matches including with YamiMario, SushieBoy, Miss10, and PapaGonzales, Rabbit took on Conrad himself in the now legendary match of [[RabbitSnore vs. conradslater]](2007). At a time when tennis usually came in the language of either "comedic" or of the extreme varieties conceived in the first match, this match was seen as a completely different third approach - of tennis as very much an art and of a thoughtful exchange in and of itself, even if this exchange was liable to get wild in other ways.

In January 2008, Rabbit had gained enough of an influence over tennis - having played further matches with MrDrunkenFox, pimpsahoy, strong414bad, and UncleChuckTH, that he was able to create some of the earliest foundational texts on how tennis was meant to be played and approached: the Observational and Recreational Guides to tennis. On January 28, Rabbit also created the first of the "Tennis Café" threads, a general chat for the tennis section that allowed for the community to begin to consolidate together and organize themselves properly for the first time. Around this time, newer members began to enter into the community or gain a greater degree of visibility in the section, including {{Crash2991}}, {{strong414bad}}, {{GameBop}}, and {{Nuthead}}. For much of the original Cafe thread's incarnation, only Rabbit and Crash would be doing the majority of the regular posting, and between them talked about tennis matches often, with RabbitSnore vs. conradslater, conradslater vs. Miss10 and [[MilkR0und vs. Y2Zero]](2007) receiving repeated reference and discussion as part of an early canon of foundational matches for the community. Somewhere in this period due to his enthusiasm and prolific activity, RabbitSnore even began being regarded by a few as "The King of Tennis" - a title he never was comfortable with.

Conrad's last matches played were with TheDarkRises and Tentor521 in early 2008. He began to make a lot of strange, aggressive and elitist decisions in how he shaped and restructured the forum community, including among other things enforcing his "War on [[AIDS]]"(a crusade against what he termed to be low effort YTPs based on source and editor preference) upon the community in addition to a requirement for forum users to play at least one tennis match in order to be eligible to be "featured" on the site. The decline of his reign on the "Vanilla" forums coincided with the tennis community, in the absence of most everyone else, continuing to grow and consolidate around a growing collection of regular tennis players and posters in the Cafe. {{RAKninja}}, {{theHappyFungus}}, and {{NS2}} became such members at this time, and all engaged in tennis matches both with each other and other exterior players, with Temeku/MTB710, GreatBritishTurd and TheDarkRises all beginning to make regular tennis appearances. The "Vanilla" forums officially shut down at the end of March 2008, as conradslater relinquished control over to {{RabbitSnore}} and TINS, who purchased new forum software and a new server to give the community a fresh, laid-back start - free from the drama and the hardship of the site's original incarnation. Rabbit promptly created a new version of the Tennis Cafe, and it was shortly in the wake of this site's beginning that the official rules of tennis were finally laid down for the first time, stipulating the 6-round standard with which all tennis would orient itself around from this point onward.

===RabbitSnore, as Admin and the "First" "Tennis Fuck"===

The spring of 2008 was a prolific time for tennis with Rabbit and TINS now at the seats of administration. Outside of the developing core community, players such as GreatBritishTurd, Temeku/MTB710, TheDarkRises, ShadowWario/FancySanta, zacheatscrackers and DaftPunkYoshi all began to start leaving their marks within tennis during this time. RabbitSnore however began to considerably slow in activity around this point, with some of his matches played in this era being with the likes of BMATF, theHappyFungus, GameCubeHero, Christoph and Nuthead. He was now an administrator and "second in command" of a forum centered around YouTube Poop, which was now in a perpetual upswing of attention and discovery, and YouChew drew in those most avidly interested in this burgeoning medium of early internet creation like a magnet. The forum was ever so steadily growing in activity and users of all personality types - often younger, energetic and chaotic ones. The resulting overwhelm of the rest of the site would often get to Rabbit, resulting in him often retreating to his second Tennis Cafe thread to get away from it all, as it was by now starting to develop a reputation for having a much more toned down, easygoing and relaxed atmosphere. Multiple regulars of the Café would over time make this thread their only home on the entire site, and the tennis section the only active place that they would visit during their periods of activity. This was also the era where the Cafe began to be known and advertised as "YouChew's watering hole."

With these elements coming into play, Rabbit took the initiative to create a separate staff for this subforum in order to take the weight off of him managing the entire section on his own, and thus - the [[tennis staff]] was first formed in May 2008. It was an ultimately minor, utilitarian staff addition in the grand scheme of the rest of the site, but those who became its first members readily established it as something that signified a strong siblinghood - efforts to create greatness and value where others may have easily dismissed it. A matter of months later, RAKninja, the oldest and last chosen of the first generation of staff, would christen them with the informal moniker of the Tennis Fucks, a name that has stuck into the present on occasion. Many of the matches played in this period on the YouChew forums occurred between the members who would be chosen for this staff, including theHappyFungus vs. RabbitSnore, theHappyFungus vs. RAKninja, theHappyFungus vs. Nuthead, [[Crash2991 vs. NS2]], [[Crash2991 vs. RAKninja]], Crash2991 vs. strong414bad, RabbitSnore vs. Nuthead, theHappyFungus vs. NS2, and Nuthead vs. NS2. Out of these, the seeds that made up the foundation of much of the initial in-jokes in the community were first created, and would continue to do so with RAKninja supplying the lions share of enduring moments in tennis across the rest of the year. Through RAK, Crash, NS2 and theHappyFungus, a bedrock of culture in tennis was formed around a collective enjoyment of vintage, classic or otherwise certain selections of contemporary anime, as all of it would feature across these players matches, especially ones played with each other. Rabbit would often inquire about anime recommendations in the Cafe, indicating that he too was developing an interest and appreciation of his own. Between him and NS2, there was also the shared enjoyment of the ''Metal Gear Solid'' series, which would define both of their respective outputs in and out of tennis.

While there were originally six members chosen, making for a total of seven when counting Rabbit, the lineup would continue in a state of flux from its inception onward with the promotion and departure of various members, but generally settled around an early core of {{RAKninja}}, {{Crash2991}} and {{strong414bad}} as those the most faithful to the tennis section in this initial phase. As the Spring became the Summer of 2008, the Cafe and community were augmented by a new influx of regulars that included Emperor Ing, Rillion, WowComics, DrGenericMan, ThaNuke, guysafari, vvaluigi, Moogle, and Aesaun, who would make up the bulk of the non-competitive tennis matches played at this time. Rabbit and Crash in particular readily praised the quality of Moogle vs. theHappyFungus(2008), Moogle's first tennis match, as being one that matched the old classics in greatness. Moogle would introduce Touhou into tennis and its community, and create another defining and long-lasting staple within the present culture.

For GameBop, who was operating largely independently and with low activity at this time, they were focused on making sure that the ongoing Second Chain was staying on track, in lieu of ShadowWario/FancySanta starting it, losing interest, and then disappearing. In order to be able to directly edit and manage the participants roster themselves, they were made the first new addition to the tennis staff in June 2008, which slightly elevated their profile as a player. Emperor Ing, who was quickly becoming known as a "hardcore" defender of Windows Movie Maker, instigated the an all-WMM three-way match with fellow software users NS2 and strong414bad - a match he would give the title of "[[Windows Movie Master]]".

In terms of competitive tennis, all members of the staff would join the rest of the community in taking part in what would be subsequently seen as the first true major event for tennis, and the community's inaugural event under the tenure of Rabbit and TINS - The [[Tennis Cup]].

While the previous Tennis Leagues had been "competition" in a much looser sense, the Tennis Cup was the first elimination-based tournament in tennis, though it was clearly not approached with any grand stakes or ambition, and Ishkibibl even expressed great disappointment when he eventually was revealed to be the events winner following [[Ishkibibl vs. NS2|the final match between him and NS2.]] Despite this, the event was nonetheless the source of multiple matches in all manner of statuses, from complete to incomplete to their present-day fragmentation, that served to be major influences on many sectors of tennis going forward. While only one half of MTB710 vs. Domorato(2008) remains preserved, for example, the frenetic energy of the MTB710's surviving side plus the surviving titles of the other side - including one "MR. CLEAN NUKES THE UNITED STATES"(2008) - have served to amaze subsequent viewers due the intensity contained within the rounds and the speculation upon what the missing rounds must have contained. [[ophios vs. RAKninja]](2008) ended up pioneering almost an entire subgenre of slower, more ambient and mysterious tennis styles that would be later explored in greater depth by GameBop, Luioigi, and RAKninja himself. GameBop themselves only played in one full match in this tournament, their Set 2 match with GreatBritishTurd - fondly remembered for reaching rare heights in both cleverness and the at-the-time rare complexity of the visual effects - but even their unfinished match with strong414bad would later be a cited influence on one player in particular who was just about to enter the tennis community.

In June 2008, GameBop would start a match with a player who was as of yet a complete unknown to tennis. They had just existed out of their original account MicroProcessor314, and had just established a more YTP-centric account under the name of {{MycroProcessor}}. MycroProcessor vs. GameBop(2008-2009) was played at a pace that was fairly long for its era, but it served to represent the beginning of multiple new elements in tennis at the same time: the debut of one of the medium's most defining, radical and most influential new voices, as Mycro would quickly establish themselves as verbose, articulate and intelligent when it came to all matters of tennis and video remixes and would soon develop a reputation of writing intricate feedback on every tennis match played in the tennis forums; the beginning of a very different school of thought around tennis that focused for the first time on maximizing the potential of editing and stylistic development and the aesethetic sensibilities that were to come with it; the beginning of a long creative friendship between GameBop and MycroProcessor that firmly established a different and contrasting social constituency away from much of the rest of the tennis community. Mycro's fast-paced, densely-edited, high-stimulation tennis style apparent even in their earliest tennis output would serve to have a galvanizing effect upon tennis and its community, and immediately he found himself swamped with match requests from all manner of eager player looking to either see their work get tackled by him in this cutting edge style or to try and see if they could either outdo or subvert this style in their own ways. RAKninja and Mycro, in many ways complete opposites in each other as people, nonetheless established something of a foil dynamic; while both players came from different constituencies, they shared a passion for intricate tennis discussion, as RAKninja had recently opened the first thread in the tennis subforum dedicated entirely to "Tennis Theory", and the two of them would wage discussion and compare contrasting viewpoints in tennis for years to come. A match between them was always teased, as RAK believed there were ways he could tackle Mycro's style that no one else was thinking of, but a match between them would never end up taking place.

As the Summer became the Autumn and Winter of 2008, more regulars still became augmented to the main community, namely in the form of players such as TheChutley, quax94 and Futures Passed. Moogle was the next to be promoted to the tennis staff, and RabbitSnore returned after a few months absence and began matches with both Crash2991 and NS2, the former of whom had now switched back to using [[Windows Movie Maker]] as their primary editing software, but notably with the most minimal editing style possible within it. RAKninja was now taking up the reigns for the next tournament, here in the form of the first [[Doubles Cup 1|Doubles Cup]], the first successful execution of a (modified) form of [[Doubles]] matches in tennis, in which both individual performance and collaboration provided ample merit. Players such as JackTron7000, trepmaws and SergeantBacon found their formal entrance into the community through this event, and other players still either found or began to develop their voice as players. MycroProcessor's initial strong influence upon tennis began to bear a lot fruit over these course of events; GameBop's style began to undergo significant evolution in technique and execution, beginning a "middle period" in which their classic style would become refined and finalized. Mycro themselves began to insert the first references to the pokemon Jolteon into their videos, TheChutley began to make I.M. Meen a central part of the identity of her videos, and trepmaws played his first matches entirely, immediately establishing for himself a unique and different kind of editing intensity that was rooted more in the speed and ferociousness of metal music. Aesaun and AjaxCubed both took on their own spirited derivatives from Mycro's style, with Aesaun doing so the most openly, and they would eventually win the tournament itself through a combination of this and the execution of never before seen visual effects, courtesy of AjaxCubed's use of [[Final Cut Pro]] providing him plugins that no one else in tennis had at the time, aside from GreatBritishTurd. From the Doubles Cup's final match onward, it seemed like a "meta" had been established for tennis for the first time - the quality of a match was now being increasingly defined by the way players edited the previous rounds in terms of utilizing complexity, intensity or visual inventiveness, with the ability to capture/hold attention and entertain in both being seen as paramount. The finalists of this tournament were made up of all the most cutting edge players in this mold by the Spring of 2009: GameBop, MycroProcessor, AjaxCubed and Aesaun. The former would continue to establish their collective influence across tennis, while the latter two would actually disappear from the community fairly quickly after this.

This did not sit too well with multiple of the older figures in tennis. In the first set of the Doubles Cup, Terrorist and Nuthead, one of the earlier teams of pairs, ended up dropping out only 4 rounds into their match with GameBop and MycroProcessor, with Terrorist in particular lamenting that tennis had become less about "being funny" and now being more about "Effects everywhere, Videos flying around, and just [loud distorted audio] with it", which he considered to take the fun out of tennis. While Moogle positioned themselves to recognize how every tennis style had merit and could manifest fun in different ways, others did not entirely disagree with Terrorist, with one of the most prominent voices being Crash2991:

"Several players have made it become competitive and made several others think that it was supposed to be the uptight thing, rather than just playing around with each other's videos and showing them to each other."

Even before this point, a general sentiment had begun to develop, namely between older players such as strong414bad and Rabbit, of weariness around "heavy/intense/destructive" editing, something that began to presage an influx of matches started by or participated in by this constituency that deliberately intended to invoke "classic" tennis stylings. Exchanges within these matches would generally pair down on the use of effects and put a larger focus on the sources used within, allowing their easily exploitable qualities to shine brighter with minimal subversion and have the match more steered by what material was added and the comedic potential across the source mix. [[RabbitSnore vs. Crash2991]](2008) was the first to be intentionally billed as a "classic style" match, but would be followed by similar matches such as [[Emperor Ing vs. theHappyFungus]](2008) and NS2 vs. WowComics(2008). RAKninja in particular would play many matches of this type and score hit after hit of memorable moments from nearly all that he played in this era. Futures Passed vs. RAKninja(2008) saw him bring the "ROBOT BUNNIE BOOBIES" meme to life, [[RAKninja vs. RetroTheRaccoon]](2008) saw him immediately follow up with "Love is Here.", and even in his own Doubles Cup, [[Moogle + RAKninja vs. McMANGOS + WowComics]](2008) saw him create "Guys in Nature." These in-jokes would sweep across the YouChew forums and the entire tennis section, cementing the power of his influence upon the inner community. On the outskirts, ChrisGendo vs. NS2(2008) was taking place, in which NS2 would find for themselves a new kindred spirit in the community, and soon to be another significant voice in tennis.

Going into 2009, the new school of more intricate, technically creative complex editing now indirectly faced the old school of simpler, humor based, aesthetically creative classic editing in a schizm that seemed to compete for attention influence in tennis, with both having ironclad constituency and sway by this point. While many names would stick to one lane, those who were more open minded and embracing of all styles would find themselves treated to what some would consider the peak of tennis' "golden age", but it also showed signs that the ways of the early "Freewheeling" era, in which competition was engaged more playfully and without well defined metas, was becoming superseded.

==The first matches==

{{WIP|REASON=The timestamps here are in EST, but they really should be in UTC. This applies for everything here, as others were done in MST - a better way of approaching this should be discussed.)}}

The following is a list of the first played, listing very match from August to the start of November 2007. The timestamps are based on their time started/completed on the [[YouChew]] forums. Titles are based on serving order in most cases. As some matches are logged as completed despite only going to 3 rounds, matches logged in the early "Tennis: Forfeited and Failed" section with at least that many will also be included.

Matches are sorted by date started, with the precise order going by when matches started sometimes by the hour and minute the first round of a match was posted if multiple matches start on the same day. Date format is MM-DD-YYYY.

==Further Developments==
The very first rematch in tennis (players going at it more than once) took place between MelvanaInChains and nimrodpowerz, with their second match going from November 17th to the 24th, 2007 - ending exactly a month after their first match concluded. <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/85033-melvanainchains-vs-nimrodpowerz-again/1.html</ref>

=Typical Game Format + Etiquette=
<youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-Lf7zolg-U</youtube> 
The rules of YTP Tennis are often customized to suit each pooper's needs. However, one of the original, and well known, formats is as follows:

* One player (P1) asks another, or in some cases the community as a whole, whether or not they would like to participate in a game. Here the number of videos to be made (or rounds, typically 4 or 6) is defined, as well as the length of each, and any other additional conditions. If an open challenge is made, a video is sometimes supplied. This is "Round 1", the serve of the tennis match.
* Another player (P2) accepts the challenge, and edits over P1's first video to make "Round 2". In addition to editing the video supplied, P2 can add new sources to mix in with it if they so choose.
* P1 follows through by remixing the new video to make "Round 3", adding sources of their own if they so choose. The game continues in a back and forth fashion like this until the round limit is met.
*It is always absolutely essential that the previous round always be used in some way to make each subsequent round, otherwise it is not considered true tennis.

For additional conditions to a match, they are usually outlined in these such ways:

- specific sources that are to be used for a match, like "video games only" (Furnessly vs. {{MycroProcessor}} (2008-2009)), "Final Fantasy only"({{Moogle}} vs. Mazz0Murder(2009)) or having each round correspond to a sequential letter of the alphabet with added sources and time limit (CorruptionSound's "ABC" Tennis Multi-Way (2011-2014))

- the amount of sources that can be added (in the early years, it was commonly suggested that added sources be capped at a maximum of three per round; in [[Kurkop vs. Metzgorrre]](2010), the condition was that No sources were to be added)

- specific software to be used, such as WMM ([[Dani vs. GameBop (WMM rematch)|dani_phantump vs. GameBop]](2012-2014), [[Vanilla WMM 5-Way|CorruptionSound vs. Massivezephyr14 vs. GameBop vs. BSP66c vs. Metroid998]](2010-2012))

- editing restrictions, such as "no visual distortion/ear rape"({{NS2}} vs. {{ChrisGendo}}(2009))

- a nonstandard match type, such as [[Wildcard]] ([[RabbitSnore vs. Crash2991]](2008)), [[Multiplied Time]] ([[quax94 vs. MycroProcessor]](2009)) or [[Panic Tennis]] ({{dew}} vs. {{Gamebop}} vs. LeSuperKoffee(2012))

=Exceptions + Special Cases=
Often, 6 rounds in total is the conventional amount of rounds made that make a normal match considered "complete". However, in certain circumstances, especially if the players enjoy working off of each other, the number of rounds can often get extended to 8 or more. [[The 100 Round Tennis|{{TheChutley}} and vvaluigi began a match together]] with the intent of playing 100 rounds in total beginning in 2008, and have gotten as far as Round 75 in the present day, with a five year window of inactivity between 2011 and 2016. TheChutley is also known for often playing matches with various opponents that get extended to 8 rounds, having done so in her matches with {{GameBop}}, [[TheChutley vs. quax94|quax94]], [[TheChutley vs. ChrisGendo|ChrisGendo]], [[AbsoluteBillion vs. TheChutley|AbsoluteBillion]], JakeSteel, Rarenut59 and SesakaGenX, to name some. Her first match with Imaperson additionally extended all the way to 10 rounds, at a time when the only known instance of this otherwise was [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]](2007), the first 1v1 match to go this far.

In some cases, especially in tennis's early years, matches could be declared "complete" at an odd number, as well as one under the conventional amount of 6. This usually came about as a mutual agreement between the players involved that the match had reached a natural end, if not exactly a conventional one. Matches such as Crash2991 vs. strong414bad(2008) and [[AshcrementVII vs. UncleChuckTH]](2012) were called complete at 5 rounds, and in another, much rarer instance, RabbitSnore vs. {{NS2}} (2008-2009) was given "honorary completion" after only 3 rounds. Other matches like [[RabbitSnore vs. conradslater]] (2007) and {{Kurkop}} vs. LeSuperKoffee (2010) were declared complete at the unusual amount of 9 rounds. These circumstances usually only happen when the last even round of a match is either unable or unwilling to be made by the volleying side, but there is not a desire to consider the match "failed" for sentimental reasons, usually due to the players being close as friends or the quality of the match as it stands being considered too great for failure.

Additionally, matches can sometimes stall at an odd number with an even finishing round never being made and the match being considered neither completed nor failed due to a loss of communication. These include matches such as [[BMATF vs. Markie]](2007, the second ever tennis match), {{NS2}} vs. Markie(2012), {{dani_phantump}} vs. robochao1(2015-2016) and SushieBoy vs. guysafari(2010), all matches that never received a Round 6.

Ultimately though, a match is traditionally considered "failed" when one or both players have lost the desire to continue a match and the agreed number of rounds is not reached, and every player in tennis comes to play at least one, and often at least a few failed matches throughout their tennis career. There is however no definitive time limit to how long a tennis match must take. {{Metroid998}} vs. {{AshcrementVII}} notably took an entire 5 years to complete, lasting from 2011's Round 1 to 2016's Round 6. {{dani_phantump}} vs. {{verity larsen}} additionally took 4 years to complete, lasting from 2012 to 2016. Whether or not a match fails depends entirely on the players involved and their willingness to continue the match.

Etiquette is generally recommended when it comes to starting matches with people - like the game itself, communication is key. In the early days of tennis a direct challenge to a specific player would sometimes be cast without any prior planning to ultimately spotty success, and it was generally considered not the most popular way to start matches with people. Throughout Tennis's history, it has seen some players such as HerpyWhooves and {{autumnithink}} who were notorious for their habit of uploading serves to whoever they wanted as an opponent with no prior (or subsequent) communication whatsoever. While most of these serves were not volleyed, they on occasion were and did in fact blossom into full matches, such as {{autumnithink}} vs. {{CorruptionSound}} (2011) and HerpyWhooves vs. {{Gamebop}} (2011). It is still overall highly discouraged that one start matches with anyone this way however.

=Tennis Café and Café Staff (Tennis Staff)=

The '''Tennis Café''' is the great congregation place of the world of tennis. Historically started on [[YouChew]] and migrating to every forum site since, it is where tennis players can "Come in, Have a Drink, Chat about Tennis, Promote and Arrange Matches" <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/91854-the-poop-tennis-caf%C3%A9-come-in-have-a-drink-chat-about-tennis-promote-and-arrange-matches/1.html</ref>. Great efforts have been made recently to keep the Cafe active as much tennis activity becomes increasingly done on services like Discord.

The Café (along with tennis as a whole) is overseen by the [[Tennis Staff]], the moderators that oversee the tennis section of the medium's given forum home, and a group of individuals who strive for the success of the community and keep it stimulated and active through the hosting of events, the organization of interesting tennis matches and unique setups, and (under a more modern understanding) helping to set an example of a great person... and a great player. If you ever need help with something in tennis and can't get answers elsewhere, they are the best people to ask.

=Achievements=
As stated above, the first tennis match took place in '''2007''', between [[Conradslater vs Misselaineous10|Conradslater and Misslaineous10.]]

The longest accepted tennis round is '''"Vore. Unbirth. Dinner." by {{MycroProcessor}}''', at a whopping '''six hours'''. The round is the final (sixth) round of [[Nineroe vs. MycroProcessor]], taking place during the first set of the [[Match Voting Tournament]]. While there are rounds longer, these are usually not counted due to lack of content or effort.

<youtube>Fol6UL1EUtM</youtube>

The longest true self-match is the "idc r1k" by dillon, a match that is at over a thousand rounds long. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtz_UBFzs0Jg6EeYXbnq2hkEMFGVVAPh6

The longest 1v1 match is {{system128}} vs. The British YTPer.

The longest tennis match is '''[[Missadaxio]]''', at nearly '''14000 rounds and counting'''. It isn't likely to be passed any time soon, as the match plan to go on forever.

Not a single player has won more than one individual [[tennis tournament]]. However, if counting collaborative matches, {{GameBop}} has the most wins with three: [[GTT]], [[TTT]], and [[MVT]]. For other tournament-related achievements, see [[Tennis Tournaments#Achievements|here.]].

The first time two [[tennis staff]] played each other was [[strong414bad vs. Nuthead]] in December, 2007. The first time this happened in a tournament environment was in [[TL2]] Gameweek 2, between [[strong414bad vs. RabbitSnore|{{strong414bad}} and RabbitSnore]].

The most viewed tennis round is "(YTP Tennis Round One) 20th Century Fox and Universal have a party" by Paperking, a serve for their match against TrickyMario7654. As of June 14th, 2025, it sits at 2,072,180 views!

YTP Tennis, also known as Youtube Poop Tennis, Video Tennis, Remix Tennis or simply Tennis, is a artistic medium derivative of [[Photoshop Tennis]] and [[Youtube Poop]] involving the back-and-forth editing of video projects, often absurdist in nature.

While starting mainly as a derivative of YouTube Poop, and in the early years much more embraced by the full Youtube Poop community, it has increasingly become its own thing as time went on and the community of mainline Youtube Poop and the community of tennis have grown largely seperate. Much of modern tennis is a completely different beast in comparison to [[Youtube Poop]], often veering into much more experimental, atmospheric, avant-guarde and generally much more overstimulating territory.

There are many different types of tennis that have evolved over the years, but the tried and true "vanilla" 6 round 1v1 has held steady just as much.

=History (work in progress)=
==Origins==
<youtube>nRB-O214ezg</youtube>

The idea of remixing another person's video can be supposedly traced back as early as April of 2007, when dvariano uploaded a video called "Elated Chronological Junctures" that was supposedly the first "[[repoop]]" video, and thus considered to be technically the first "Round 2" ever made. However the original video that he edited, made by a user named bahbugandhum, has yet to be found again. Alongside this, Photoshop Tennis already existed, and original YouChew admin conradslater was a fan and an avid participant of it; there exists evidence of him engaging the community with it as early as June of 2007. As someone who took YTP seriously enough to consider it genuine art at that time, the equation to put together the tennis format with video, especially YTP, seemed to be a natural one for him to make.

<youtube>9SZvloYgu-s</youtube>

The first full match, also the first time that tennis was ever applied to the medium of video entirely on the internet, was in the form of [[Conradslater vs Misselaineous10|Conradslater and Misslaineous10]], starting on August 11th, 2007 and ended on August 21st. In it's taking place, this match forth the full idea of someone doing a remix of someone else's video, and having the original maker do the same back, creating a "Tennis" like pattern. From this match onward the concept greatly expanded to great - and at the beginning considerably unimaginable - lengths of development and refinement.

==The Intitial "Freewheeling" Era (2007-2008)==

At first, there was hardly any tennis community in a well defined sense to speak of; tennis was at the very beginning considered to be a straightforward extension of the main community for YTP itself, and would be considered an intricately connected part of YTP during the years in which the use of that branding for video remixes was at its strongest and most dedicated. Much of the tennis matches that were played following the first one was thus done so in a way that would be seen by modern standards as very disorganized; it was engaged with in the same relative loose, anarchic and "shitposty" spirit as YTP at large, being considered among the body of "contests" that included early collaborations as designated on conradslater's "Vanilla" YouChew forums. That being said, there were a handful of notable early names that became early fixtures in the world of tennis: BMATF played the second ever tennis match with Markie, and UncleChuckTH played the third ever tennis match with conradslater (the latter's second match), and both UncleChuckTH and BMATF would continue to exist in the world of tennis until the early 2010s. TangerineImpz vs. SeductiveBaz was played entirely start to finish on August 21, 2007, the day that the final round of the first tennis match was uploaded, and this was for a very long time the fastest tennis match ever played; SeductiveBaz would also be an early fixture and continued to tennis in some capacity until a full 12 years later. Second only to conradslater's early activity in tennis was that of {{MrDrunkenFox}}, who played multiple early games including with Tentor, plex14, PapaGonzales and Furnessly. This latter player, along with other such players such as InsinerateHymn, JazzDanceForChildren, TyrannosaurusReich, MelvanaInChains, dvariano, Luioigi, {{strong414bad}}, ADHDYoshi, GameCubeHero, Intenseowl, MVJ5197, 3inchhorse, ELPSteel, SushieBoy, Vorhias, sonicnerd23, and SesakaGenX would also serve to play their own individual roles in defining the nature of tennis at its earliest onsets. Tennis is considered to have reached one of its first peaks in its intersection with "Robotnik YTP" at the time - videos that focused entirely on remixing episodes of ''[[The Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog]]'' and its main antagonist - in particular the matches of [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]](2007), the first ever match to reach ten rounds, UncleChuckTH vs. BMATF(2007), [[Stegblob vs. TyrannosaurusReich]](2007), and especially [[BMATF vs. UncleChuckTH vs. Wikiwow](2007). All of these would build a foundation for a strand of tennis that would eventually continue long separate from the main tennis community, which, although small, would localize and organize itself largely on the YouChew forums.

Aside from all of these other players however, one of the most important to come out of these first months was {{RabbitSnore}}, who played his first tennis match with real-life friend Thereisnospoon303, or TINS, in October 2007. Rabbit immediately came to develop a passionate and vested interest in tennis - the places that it could go and the ways in which it could develop - from the very offset of his entrance into it, and he sought to give the medium the attention and the analysis that it deserved through his initial position on the "Vanilla" YouChew forums as chief editor of the forum's "newsroom" - from October/November 2007 onward, Rabbit began his regular "Tennis Review" series of articles, with [[InsinerateHymn vs. PukingCyberman]] (2007), GameCubeHero vs. Intenseowl(2007) and [[Furnessly vs. MrDrunkenFox]] (2007) the first three matches he covered in this matter. He would contribute a "retrospective review" of conradslater vs. Misselaineous10 shortly thereafter, and it is from this point onward, largely through his insistence, that the importance and the nature of the first ever tennis match began to become recognized in the way it now is today.

His prominence in this activity and the quality of his articles for the time gained him the trust and admiration of Conrad himself, and he was able to use this sway to convince him to allow the tennis section to begin hosting its first [[tennis tournament]]s, with Gallers being the initial organizer of the first few to take place. After Rabbit had accumulated a respectable roster of completed matches including with YamiMario, SushieBoy, Miss10, and PapaGonzales, Rabbit took on Conrad himself in the now legendary match of [[RabbitSnore vs. conradslater]](2007). At a time when tennis usually came in the language of either "comedic" or of the extreme varieties conceived in the first match, this match was seen as a completely different third approach - of tennis as very much an art and of a thoughtful exchange in and of itself, even if this exchange was liable to get wild in other ways.

In January 2008, Rabbit had gained enough of an influence over tennis - having played further matches with MrDrunkenFox, pimpsahoy, strong414bad, and UncleChuckTH, that he was able to create some of the earliest foundational texts on how tennis was meant to be played and approached: the Observational and Recreational Guides to tennis. On January 28, Rabbit also created the first of the "Tennis Café" threads, a general chat for the tennis section that allowed for the community to begin to consolidate together and organize themselves properly for the first time. Around this time, newer members began to enter into the community or gain a greater degree of visibility in the section, including {{Crash2991}}, {{strong414bad}}, {{GameBop}}, and {{Nuthead}}. For much of the original Cafe thread's incarnation, only Rabbit and Crash would be doing the majority of the regular posting, and between them talked about tennis matches often, with RabbitSnore vs. conradslater, conradslater vs. Miss10 and [[MilkR0und vs. Y2Zero]](2007) receiving repeated reference and discussion as part of an early canon of foundational matches for the community. Somewhere in this period due to his enthusiasm and prolific activity, RabbitSnore even began being regarded by a few as "The King of Tennis" - a title he never was comfortable with.

Conrad's last matches played were with TheDarkRises and Tentor521 in early 2008. He began to make a lot of strange, aggressive and elitist decisions in how he shaped and restructured the forum community, including among other things enforcing his "War on [[AIDS]]"(a crusade against what he termed to be low effort YTPs based on source and editor preference) upon the community in addition to a requirement for forum users to play at least one tennis match in order to be eligible to be "featured" on the site. The decline of his reign on the "Vanilla" forums coincided with the tennis community, in the absence of most everyone else, continuing to grow and consolidate around a growing collection of regular tennis players and posters in the Cafe. {{RAKninja}}, {{theHappyFungus}}, and {{NS2}} became such members at this time, and all engaged in tennis matches both with each other and other exterior players, with Temeku/MTB710, GreatBritishTurd and TheDarkRises all beginning to make regular tennis appearances. The "Vanilla" forums officially shut down at the end of March 2008, as conradslater relinquished control over to {{RabbitSnore}} and TINS, who purchased new forum software and a new server to give the community a fresh, laid-back start - free from the drama and the hardship of the site's original incarnation. Rabbit promptly created a new version of the Tennis Cafe, and it was shortly in the wake of this site's beginning that the official rules of tennis were finally laid down for the first time, stipulating the 6-round standard with which all tennis would orient itself around from this point onward.

===RabbitSnore, as Admin and the "First" "Tennis Fuck"===

The spring of 2008 was a prolific time for tennis with Rabbit and TINS now at the seats of administration. Outside of the developing core community, players such as GreatBritishTurd, Temeku/MTB710, TheDarkRises, ShadowWario/FancySanta, zacheatscrackers and DaftPunkYoshi all began to start leaving their marks within tennis during this time. RabbitSnore however began to considerably slow in activity around this point, with some of his matches played in this era being with the likes of BMATF, theHappyFungus, GameCubeHero, Christoph and Nuthead. He was now an administrator and "second in command" of a forum centered around YouTube Poop, which was now in a perpetual upswing of attention and discovery, and YouChew drew in those most avidly interested in this burgeoning medium of early internet creation like a magnet. The forum was ever so steadily growing in activity and users of all personality types - often younger, energetic and chaotic ones. The resulting overwhelm of the rest of the site would often get to Rabbit, resulting in him often retreating to his second Tennis Cafe thread to get away from it all, as it was by now starting to develop a reputation for having a much more toned down, easygoing and relaxed atmosphere. Multiple regulars of the Café would over time make this thread their only home on the entire site, and the tennis section the only active place that they would visit during their periods of activity. This was also the era where the Cafe began to be known and advertised as "YouChew's watering hole."

With these elements coming into play, Rabbit took the initiative to create a separate staff for this subforum in order to take the weight off of him managing the entire section on his own, and thus - the [[tennis staff]] was first formed in May 2008. It was an ultimately minor, utilitarian staff addition in the grand scheme of the rest of the site, but those who became its first members readily established it as something that signified a strong siblinghood - efforts to create greatness and value where others may have easily dismissed it. A matter of months later, RAKninja, the oldest and last chosen of the first generation of staff, would christen them with the informal moniker of the Tennis Fucks, a name that has stuck into the present on occasion. Many of the matches played in this period on the YouChew forums occurred between the members who would be chosen for this staff, including theHappyFungus vs. RabbitSnore, theHappyFungus vs. RAKninja, theHappyFungus vs. Nuthead, [[Crash2991 vs. NS2]], [[Crash2991 vs. RAKninja]], Crash2991 vs. strong414bad, RabbitSnore vs. Nuthead, theHappyFungus vs. NS2, and Nuthead vs. NS2. Out of these, the seeds that made up the foundation of much of the initial in-jokes in the community were first created, and would continue to do so with RAKninja supplying the lions share of enduring moments in tennis across the rest of the year. Through RAK, Crash, NS2 and theHappyFungus, a bedrock of culture in tennis was formed around a collective enjoyment of vintage, classic or otherwise certain selections of contemporary anime, as all of it would feature across these players matches, especially ones played with each other. Rabbit would often inquire about anime recommendations in the Cafe, indicating that he too was developing an interest and appreciation of his own. Between him and NS2, there was also the shared enjoyment of the ''Metal Gear Solid'' series, which would define both of their respective outputs in and out of tennis.

While there were originally six members chosen, making for a total of seven when counting Rabbit, the lineup would continue in a state of flux from its inception onward with the promotion and departure of various members, but generally settled around an early core of {{RAKninja}}, {{Crash2991}} and {{strong414bad}} as those the most faithful to the tennis section in this initial phase. As the Spring became the Summer of 2008, the Cafe and community were augmented by a new influx of regulars that included Emperor Ing, Rillion, WowComics, DrGenericMan, ThaNuke, guysafari, vvaluigi, Moogle, and Aesaun, who would make up the bulk of the non-competitive tennis matches played at this time. Rabbit and Crash in particular readily praised the quality of Moogle vs. theHappyFungus(2008), Moogle's first tennis match, as being one that matched the old classics in greatness. Moogle would introduce Touhou into tennis and its community, and create another defining and long-lasting staple within the present culture.

For GameBop, who was operating largely independently and with low activity at this time, they were focused on making sure that the ongoing Second Chain was staying on track, in lieu of ShadowWario/FancySanta starting it, losing interest, and then disappearing. In order to be able to directly edit and manage the participants roster themselves, they were made the first new addition to the tennis staff in June 2008, which slightly elevated their profile as a player. Emperor Ing, who was quickly becoming known as a "hardcore" defender of Windows Movie Maker, instigated the an all-WMM three-way match with fellow software users NS2 and strong414bad - a match he would give the title of "[[Windows Movie Master]]".

In terms of competitive tennis, all members of the staff would join the rest of the community in taking part in what would be subsequently seen as the first true major event for tennis, and the community's inaugural event under the tenure of Rabbit and TINS - The [[Tennis Cup]].

While the previous Tennis Leagues had been "competition" in a much looser sense, the Tennis Cup was the first elimination-based tournament in tennis, though it was clearly not approached with any grand stakes or ambition, and Ishkibibl even expressed great disappointment when he eventually was revealed to be the events winner following [[Ishkibibl vs. NS2|the final match between him and NS2.]] Despite this, the event was nonetheless the source of multiple matches in all manner of statuses, from complete to incomplete to their present-day fragmentation, that served to be major influences on many sectors of tennis going forward. While only one half of MTB710 vs. Domorato(2008) remains preserved, for example, the frenetic energy of the MTB710's surviving side plus the surviving titles of the other side - including one "MR. CLEAN NUKES THE UNITED STATES"(2008) - have served to amaze subsequent viewers due the intensity contained within the rounds and the speculation upon what the missing rounds must have contained. [[ophios vs. RAKninja]](2008) ended up pioneering almost an entire subgenre of slower, more ambient and mysterious tennis styles that would be later explored in greater depth by GameBop, Luioigi, and RAKninja himself. GameBop themselves only played in one full match in this tournament, their Set 2 match with GreatBritishTurd - fondly remembered for reaching rare heights in both cleverness and the at-the-time rare complexity of the visual effects - but even their unfinished match with strong414bad would later be a cited influence on one player in particular who was just about to enter the tennis community.

In June 2008, GameBop would start a match with a player who was as of yet a complete unknown to tennis. They had just existed out of their original account MicroProcessor314, and had just established a more YTP-centric account under the name of {{MycroProcessor}}. MycroProcessor vs. GameBop(2008-2009) was played at a pace that was fairly long for its era, but it served to represent the beginning of multiple new elements in tennis at the same time: the debut of one of the medium's most defining, radical and most influential new voices, as Mycro would quickly establish themselves as verbose, articulate and intelligent when it came to all matters of tennis and video remixes and would soon develop a reputation of writing intricate feedback on every tennis match played in the tennis forums; the beginning of a very different school of thought around tennis that focused for the first time on maximizing the potential of editing and stylistic development and the aesethetic sensibilities that were to come with it; the beginning of a long creative friendship between GameBop and MycroProcessor that firmly established a different and contrasting social constituency away from much of the rest of the tennis community. Mycro's fast-paced, densely-edited, high-stimulation tennis style apparent even in their earliest tennis output would serve to have a galvanizing effect upon tennis and its community, and immediately he found himself swamped with match requests from all manner of eager player looking to either see their work get tackled by him in this cutting edge style or to try and see if they could either outdo or subvert this style in their own ways. RAKninja and Mycro, in many ways complete opposites in each other as people, nonetheless established something of a foil dynamic; while both players came from different constituencies, they shared a passion for intricate tennis discussion, as RAKninja had recently opened the first thread in the tennis subforum dedicated entirely to "Tennis Theory", and the two of them would wage discussion and compare contrasting viewpoints in tennis for years to come. A match between them was always teased, as RAK believed there were ways he could tackle Mycro's style that no one else was thinking of, but a match between them would never end up taking place.

As the Summer became the Autumn and Winter of 2008, more regulars still became augmented to the main community, namely in the form of players such as TheChutley, quax94 and Futures Passed. Moogle was the next to be promoted to the tennis staff, and RabbitSnore returned after a few months absence and began matches with both Crash2991 and NS2, the former of whom had now switched back to using [[Windows Movie Maker]] as their primary editing software, but notably with the most minimal editing style possible within it. RAKninja was now taking up the reigns for the next tournament, here in the form of the first [[Doubles Cup 1|Doubles Cup]], the first successful execution of a (modified) form of [[Doubles]] matches in tennis, in which both individual performance and collaboration provided ample merit. Players such as JackTron7000, trepmaws and SergeantBacon found their formal entrance into the community through this event, and other players still either found or began to develop their voice as players. MycroProcessor's initial strong influence upon tennis began to bear a lot fruit over these course of events; GameBop's style began to undergo significant evolution in technique and execution, beginning a "middle period" in which their classic style would become refined and finalized. Mycro themselves began to insert the first references to the pokemon Jolteon into their videos, TheChutley began to make I.M. Meen a central part of the identity of her videos, and trepmaws played his first matches entirely, immediately establishing for himself a unique and different kind of editing intensity that was rooted more in the speed and ferociousness of metal music. Aesaun and AjaxCubed both took on their own spirited derivatives from Mycro's style, with Aesaun doing so the most openly, and they would eventually win the tournament itself through a combination of this and the execution of never before seen visual effects, courtesy of AjaxCubed's use of [[Final Cut Pro]] providing him plugins that no one else in tennis had at the time, aside from GreatBritishTurd. From the Doubles Cup's final match onward, it seemed like a "meta" had been established for tennis for the first time - the quality of a match was now being increasingly defined by the way players edited the previous rounds in terms of utilizing complexity, intensity or visual inventiveness, with the ability to capture/hold attention and entertain in both being seen as paramount. The finalists of this tournament were made up of all the most cutting edge players in this mold by the Spring of 2009: GameBop, MycroProcessor, AjaxCubed and Aesaun. The former would continue to establish their collective influence across tennis, while the latter two would actually disappear from the community fairly quickly after this.

This did not sit too well with multiple of the older figures in tennis. In the first set of the Doubles Cup, Terrorist and Nuthead, one of the earlier teams of pairs, ended up dropping out only 4 rounds into their match with GameBop and MycroProcessor, with Terrorist in particular lamenting that tennis had become less about "being funny" and now being more about "Effects everywhere, Videos flying around, and just [loud distorted audio] with it", which he considered to take the fun out of tennis. While Moogle positioned themselves to recognize how every tennis style had merit and could manifest fun in different ways, others did not entirely disagree with Terrorist, with one of the most prominent voices being Crash2991:

"Several players have made it become competitive and made several others think that it was supposed to be the uptight thing, rather than just playing around with each other's videos and showing them to each other."

Even before this point, a general sentiment had begun to develop, namely between older players such as strong414bad and Rabbit, of weariness around "heavy/intense/destructive" editing, something that began to presage an influx of matches started by or participated in by this constituency that deliberately intended to invoke "classic" tennis stylings. Exchanges within these matches would generally pair down on the use of effects and put a larger focus on the sources used within, allowing their easily exploitable qualities to shine brighter with minimal subversion and have the match more steered by what material was added and the comedic potential across the source mix. [[RabbitSnore vs. Crash2991]](2008) was the first to be intentionally billed as a "classic style" match, but would be followed by similar matches such as [[Emperor Ing vs. theHappyFungus]](2008) and NS2 vs. WowComics(2008). RAKninja in particular would play many matches of this type and score hit after hit of memorable moments from nearly all that he played in this era. Futures Passed vs. RAKninja(2008) saw him bring the "ROBOT BUNNIE BOOBIES" meme to life, [[RAKninja vs. RetroTheRaccoon]](2008) saw him immediately follow up with "Love is Here.", and even in his own Doubles Cup, [[Moogle + RAKninja vs. McMANGOS + WowComics]](2008) saw him create "Guys in Nature." These in-jokes would sweep across the YouChew forums and the entire tennis section, cementing the power of his influence upon the inner community. On the outskirts, ChrisGendo vs. NS2(2008) was taking place, in which NS2 would find for themselves a new kindred spirit in the community, and soon to be another significant voice in tennis.

Going into 2009, the new school of more intricate, technically creative complex editing now indirectly faced the old school of simpler, humor based, aesthetically creative classic editing in a schizm that seemed to compete for attention influence in tennis, with both having ironclad constituency and sway by this point. While many names would stick to one lane, those who were more open minded and embracing of all styles would find themselves treated to what some would consider the peak of tennis' "golden age", but it also showed signs that the ways of the early "Freewheeling" era, in which competition was engaged more playfully and without well defined metas, was becoming superseded.

==The first matches==

The following is a list of the first played, listing very match from August to the start of November 2007. The timestamps are based on their time started/completed on the [[YouChew]] forums. Titles are based on serving order in most cases. As some matches are logged as completed despite only going to 3 rounds, matches logged in the early "Tennis: Forfeited and Failed" section with at least that many will also be included.

Matches are sorted by date started, with the precise order going by when matches started sometimes by the hour and minute the first round of a match was posted if multiple matches start on the same day. Date format is MM-DD-YYYY.

==Further Developments==
The very first rematch in tennis (players going at it more than once) took place between MelvanaInChains and nimrodpowerz, with their second match going from November 17th to the 24th, 2007 - ending exactly a month after their first match concluded. <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/85033-melvanainchains-vs-nimrodpowerz-again/1.html</ref>

=Typical Game Format + Etiquette=
<youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-Lf7zolg-U</youtube> 
The rules of YTP Tennis are often customized to suit each pooper's needs. However, one of the original, and well known, formats is as follows:

* One player (P1) asks another, or in some cases the community as a whole, whether or not they would like to participate in a game. Here the number of videos to be made (or rounds, typically 4 or 6) is defined, as well as the length of each, and any other additional conditions. If an open challenge is made, a video is sometimes supplied. This is "Round 1", the serve of the tennis match.
* Another player (P2) accepts the challenge, and edits over P1's first video to make "Round 2". In addition to editing the video supplied, P2 can add new sources to mix in with it if they so choose.
* P1 follows through by remixing the new video to make "Round 3", adding sources of their own if they so choose. The game continues in a back and forth fashion like this until the round limit is met.
*It is always absolutely essential that the previous round always be used in some way to make each subsequent round, otherwise it is not considered true tennis.

For additional conditions to a match, they are usually outlined in these such ways:

- specific sources that are to be used for a match, like "video games only" (Furnessly vs. {{MycroProcessor}} (2008-2009)), "Final Fantasy only"({{Moogle}} vs. Mazz0Murder(2009)) or having each round correspond to a sequential letter of the alphabet with added sources and time limit (CorruptionSound's "ABC" Tennis Multi-Way (2011-2014))

- the amount of sources that can be added (in the early years, it was commonly suggested that added sources be capped at a maximum of three per round; in [[Kurkop vs. Metzgorrre]](2010), the condition was that No sources were to be added)

- specific software to be used, such as WMM ([[Dani vs. GameBop (WMM rematch)|dani_phantump vs. GameBop]](2012-2014), [[Vanilla WMM 5-Way|CorruptionSound vs. Massivezephyr14 vs. GameBop vs. BSP66c vs. Metroid998]](2010-2012))

- editing restrictions, such as "no visual distortion/ear rape"({{NS2}} vs. {{ChrisGendo}}(2009))

- a nonstandard match type, such as [[Wildcard]] ([[RabbitSnore vs. Crash2991]](2008)), [[Multiplied Time]] ([[quax94 vs. MycroProcessor]](2009)) or [[Panic Tennis]] ({{dew}} vs. {{Gamebop}} vs. LeSuperKoffee(2012))

=Exceptions + Special Cases=
Often, 6 rounds in total is the conventional amount of rounds made that make a normal match considered "complete". However, in certain circumstances, especially if the players enjoy working off of each other, the number of rounds can often get extended to 8 or more. [[The 100 Round Tennis|{{TheChutley}} and vvaluigi began a match together]] with the intent of playing 100 rounds in total beginning in 2008, and have gotten as far as Round 75 in the present day, with a five year window of inactivity between 2011 and 2016. TheChutley is also known for often playing matches with various opponents that get extended to 8 rounds, having done so in her matches with {{GameBop}}, [[TheChutley vs. quax94|quax94]], [[TheChutley vs. ChrisGendo|ChrisGendo]], [[AbsoluteBillion vs. TheChutley|AbsoluteBillion]], JakeSteel, Rarenut59 and SesakaGenX, to name some. Her first match with Imaperson additionally extended all the way to 10 rounds, at a time when the only known instance of this otherwise was [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]](2007), the first 1v1 match to go this far.

In some cases, especially in tennis's early years, matches could be declared "complete" at an odd number, as well as one under the conventional amount of 6. This usually came about as a mutual agreement between the players involved that the match had reached a natural end, if not exactly a conventional one. Matches such as Crash2991 vs. strong414bad(2008) and [[AshcrementVII vs. UncleChuckTH]](2012) were called complete at 5 rounds, and in another, much rarer instance, RabbitSnore vs. {{NS2}} (2008-2009) was given "honorary completion" after only 3 rounds. Other matches like [[RabbitSnore vs. conradslater]] (2007) and {{Kurkop}} vs. LeSuperKoffee (2010) were declared complete at the unusual amount of 9 rounds. These circumstances usually only happen when the last even round of a match is either unable or unwilling to be made by the volleying side, but there is not a desire to consider the match "failed" for sentimental reasons, usually due to the players being close as friends or the quality of the match as it stands being considered too great for failure.

Additionally, matches can sometimes stall at an odd number with an even finishing round never being made and the match being considered neither completed nor failed due to a loss of communication. These include matches such as [[BMATF vs. Markie]](2007, the second ever tennis match), {{NS2}} vs. Markie(2012), {{dani_phantump}} vs. robochao1(2015-2016) and SushieBoy vs. guysafari(2010), all matches that never received a Round 6.

Ultimately though, a match is traditionally considered "failed" when one or both players have lost the desire to continue a match and the agreed number of rounds is not reached, and every player in tennis comes to play at least one, and often at least a few failed matches throughout their tennis career. There is however no definitive time limit to how long a tennis match must take. {{Metroid998}} vs. {{AshcrementVII}} notably took an entire 5 years to complete, lasting from 2011's Round 1 to 2016's Round 6. {{dani_phantump}} vs. {{verity larsen}} additionally took 4 years to complete, lasting from 2012 to 2016. Whether or not a match fails depends entirely on the players involved and their willingness to continue the match.

Etiquette is generally recommended when it comes to starting matches with people - like the game itself, communication is key. In the early days of tennis a direct challenge to a specific player would sometimes be cast without any prior planning to ultimately spotty success, and it was generally considered not the most popular way to start matches with people. Throughout Tennis's history, it has seen some players such as HerpyWhooves and {{autumnithink}} who were notorious for their habit of uploading serves to whoever they wanted as an opponent with no prior (or subsequent) communication whatsoever. While most of these serves were not volleyed, they on occasion were and did in fact blossom into full matches, such as {{autumnithink}} vs. {{CorruptionSound}} (2011) and HerpyWhooves vs. {{Gamebop}} (2011). It is still overall highly discouraged that one start matches with anyone this way however.

==Doubles Tennis==
Doubles Tennis is the practice of teams of two going at it. See [[Team Tennis#Doubles Tennis|here]] for more.

==Triples Tennis==
Tennis with three! See [[Team Tennis#Triples Tennis|here]] for more information.

==Multi-Ways==

Larger matches with more than two people, but still in a repeating pattern. See [[Multi-Way Match|here]] for more information.

==Poop Chains==
A '''Poop Chain''' is a longer match where a different person makes each round. These are usually large, community-wide collaborative events. See [[Chains|here]] for more.

=Tennis Café and Café Staff (Tennis Staff)=

The '''Tennis Café''' is the great congregation place of the world of tennis. Historically started on [[YouChew]] and migrating to every forum site since, it is where tennis players can "Come in, Have a Drink, Chat about Tennis, Promote and Arrange Matches" <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/91854-the-poop-tennis-caf%C3%A9-come-in-have-a-drink-chat-about-tennis-promote-and-arrange-matches/1.html</ref>. Great efforts have been made recently to keep the Cafe active as much tennis activity becomes increasingly done on services like Discord.

The Café (along with tennis as a whole) is overseen by the [[Tennis Staff]], the moderators that oversee the tennis section of the medium's given forum home, and a group of individuals who strive for the success of the community and keep it stimulated and active through the hosting of events, the organization of interesting tennis matches and unique setups, and (under a more modern understanding) helping to set an example of a great person... and a great player. If you ever need help with something in tennis and can't get answers elsewhere, they are the best people to ask.

=Achievements=
As stated above, the first tennis match took place in '''2007''', between [[Conradslater vs Misselaineous10|Conradslater and Misslaineous10.]]

The longest accepted tennis round is '''"Vore. Unbirth. Dinner." by {{MycroProcessor}}''', at a whopping '''six hours'''. The round is the final (sixth) round of [[Nineroe vs. MycroProcessor]], taking place during the first set of the [[Match Voting Tournament]]. While there are rounds longer, these are usually not counted due to lack of content or effort.

<youtube>Fol6UL1EUtM</youtube>

The longest true self-match is the "idc r1k" by dillon, a match that is at over a thousand rounds long. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtz_UBFzs0Jg6EeYXbnq2hkEMFGVVAPh6

The longest 1v1 match is {{system128}} vs. The British YTPer.

The longest tennis match is '''[[Missadaxio]]''', at nearly '''14000 rounds and counting'''. It isn't likely to be passed any time soon, as the match plan to go on forever.

Not a single player has won more than one individual [[tennis tournament]]. However, if counting collaborative matches, {{GameBop}} has the most wins with three: [[GTT]], [[TTT]], and [[MVT]]. For other tournament-related achievements, see [[Tennis Tournaments#Achievements|here.]].

The first time two [[tennis staff]] played each other was [[strong414bad vs. Nuthead]] in December, 2007. The first time this happened in a tournament environment was in [[TL2]] Gameweek 2, between [[strong414bad vs. RabbitSnore|{{strong414bad}} and RabbitSnore]].

The most viewed tennis round is "(YTP Tennis Round One) 20th Century Fox and Universal have a party" by Paperking, a serve for their match against TrickyMario7654. As of June 14th, 2025, it sits at 2,072,180 views!

Admin: add frame's citation guide

'''ytptenniswiki''' is a wiki that's sole focus is all aspects pertaining and related to [[YTP Tennis|Video Tennis]]. The goal is to document anything anyone would want to know when it comes to this community, being useful for players and enthusiasts alike.

There are several distinct stylistic changes between ytptenniswiki, [[Chewiki]] and other similar projects:
* ''There are no pages for individual players ("pooper pages")''. Pages about players can quickly become personal and biased, and goes beyond the scope of the wiki.
* Less of a focus on [[YTP]] - only the things that apply to both YTP ''and'' tennis.
* Contributions will be done by trusted people ''only''. Almost everything I would be preferred to write from scratch, as Chewiki is full of outdated and possibly incorrect information. While historical facts, for example, likely will be taken from there, ''the plan is to rephrase it'' in a better way when migrating to a new site.

=Contact=
{{mrdoognoog}} is the webmaster of [[ytptennis.com]], as well as the wiki and everything else on the site. If you'd like to contact me, please send a message on discord (my username is also mrdoognoog).

=Credits=
- {{mrdoognoog}} - Website Administrator

- {{pajamafrix}} - Logo Artist

- All the [[tennis staff]] (most notably {{dew}}, {{infinitysnapz}}, {{TheChutley}} and {{VidTens443}}) - major article contributions, general guidance

- All other editors, such as {{Yottiferent}} and {{fiv95}} for their help and support

=Guidelines for Editors=
To prevent vandalism and maintain a quality standard, only the [[Tennis Staff]] by default are allowed to edit the site. Other trusted members of the community can also apply to edit the wiki directly. If you are interested in contributing, go to the discord help server.

Please keep these in mind when working on new pages / updating old ones.
* Do NOT import templates/modules from elsewhere without given permission. These can break the site and can cause a whole multitude of problems if not done right! Player aliases are fine, however - feel free to add those.
* As mentioned above, ''no player/"pooper" pages'', including for yourself. (The User:USER pages are OK.)
* Feel free to take requests from other users.
* ''Maintain Objectivity''. Avoid saying things are "good" or "bad", if you do, use the third person. For example: "This match is often considered the best of its time..."
* As it is a historical artifact, referencing Chewiki and similar sites is pretty much a necessity. But please do '''not''' quote it verbatim. Chewiki had very little quality control, so be sure to cross-reference with other sources if possible.
* When uploading images/assets, please ''change the filename to something relevant to the image'', rather than leaving it as "8970Efas9df7asd.PNG". Captions are useful, but not when trying to ''find'' said file!
* '''Add references'' whenever possible so claims can be backed up, etc. Source pages are generated automatically, so be sure to add a "=Sources=" header to the ''very'' bottom of the page (should be the last thing in the document) in order to separate the generated references from the rest of the page's content.

Looking for something to do? Check [[:Special:ShortPages]] and [[:Special:WantedPages]]. These have the shortest pages or things that are missing, respectively. We also have a spreadsheet that shows planned notable match pages, as well as the ability to add new suggestions.

==Creating a Match Page==
If you have a match page you want to make, start by getting approval from the others to make sure it would be acceptable. From there, copy in the Match Template and start filling in information. Make sure to get the following:
* The name of the match
* Its type (vanilla, [[chain]], [[MTT]], etc.)
* Who played in it
* The start and end times (if possible)
* 1-2 notable images and quotes from the match
* The link to its corresponding thread, on [[YouChew]], [[YTPMania]], [[YellowTealPurple]], etc.
* If the match was complete, the corresponding completion number for each player ("This is Johnny's 32 completed match and Jenny's 39th.") Especially important if it was any player's first or last game.
* The rounds themselves - a YouTube link, the title and player. This can be generated with TennisWikiMatchPageTool, available on the help discord
* A YouTube link of the match compilation, if one exists. This can be easily done with [[GameSetMatch]]
* All notable citations and references

Feel free to ask around if you need more help, or read the documentation comments on related templates and pages to see what to do.

===Inline Citation Guide===
Written by {{dani_phantump}}. Especially important when writing sources for a match!

Theatrically or independently released films and short films are written in italics with release year in parentheses, such as Only Lovers Left Alive(2013). Golden age animated shorts(old cartoons) that were shown in theaters count for this designation, and are usually prefaced with any starring characters, the series it was otherwise released under, or the director who made it, such as "the Bugs Bunny short Tortoise Beats Hare(1941)" or "the Merrie Melodies short Have You Got Any Castles?(1938)" or "the Tex Avery short King-Sized Canary(1949)".

TV series, anime series and OVAs are written in italics with no release year to accomodate for the spans of time shows generally last as a minor formality, such as The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog or Devilman Crybaby. If an OVA is a single episode long, such as Mighty Bean(1989), this is appropriate to list a release year for.

Video games are written in italics with both the system the game was released for, or otherwise the version that was used in a match, along with the release year both in parentheses, such as Super Mario World(SNES, 1990) and Elden Ring(PC/PS4, 2022). Music used from video games are notated by potential song title in quotes, along with the game OST it's from, such as "the track "Hoohoo Mountaintop" from the Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga(GBA, 2003) OST."

Songs released by music artists are written in quotes with the release year in parentheses, either with the artist or band in front, such as "the Genesis song "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" (1986)", or after, such as ""Under Pressure"(1981) by Queen and David Bowie". Use cases for either will vary. Songs from film soundtracks are notated with the song in quotes and the film written in italics with release year in parenthesis, with the designation of the song being from its soundtrack, such as "the song "Ice Dance" from the Edward Scissorhands(1990) OST".

Internet videos or other tennis rounds/YTPs are generally written in quotes with the release year in parentheses if available, followed by the creator or uploader, such as "something for the hard of thinking"(2008) by conradslater. If the internet video used is unknown, nondistinct, or otherwise can't be found, a basic general description is acceptable. If the internet video is very context specific in what it depicts, a reproduction of its original title embedded with a link to that video is considered optimal, such as the various Touhou videos linked on the ChrisGendo vs. TheChutley vs. trepmaws(2010) page.

Images, soundbytes or meme content are usually given general descriptions, with source material recommended if possible. If the sources used are already documented by the players involved in some way, those can be used appropriately if there is no other way to notate or describe that source, usually with their wording in quotes to let the reader know that it's how that player describes it. An example of this is conradslater's usage of "wairwolf screaming at a snake".

==Creating a Tool Page==
Tool pages (like video editors) are only necessary if they have documentation that goes beyond a simple summary, such as tips and tricks. When this is the case, there may already be an entry on its related category page, such as [[List of Video Editors]]. If not, or if you realize an expansion is possible, make a page and add the related data.

==Citing Sources==
Make sure to cite everything that you find, if possible. It is important we show our integrity! If adding sources, they will appear as a "Resources" section at the bottom of the article. Make sure to add a "Sources"/etc. header at the bottom or it'll just append to the last section, which could look cluttered and messy.

=Templates=
==Page Templates==
These are template pages that can be filled in with their respective information.

===Notable Match Page===
A page for making templates of a notable match. Can be found [[Notable Match Template|here.]]

==Bracket Templates==
All bracket templates start and end with double braces.

===Alias Templates===
People change their username online. This can be for a variety of factors, and it is important that this is kept up to date. Thus, templates exist for players that may have multiple usernames - for example, {{RapskallionXYZ}}. One can mouse over one of these names to see anything else they may have went by.

The current, up-to-date way to create aliases is to use the [[Template:Alias]] template. More instructions can be found there.

Templates that use older names should redirect to one "main" alias page. Remember to pass the "U" parameter or matchboxes will break!

===Staff Templates===
All current and former members of the [[Tennis Staff]] have yellow names: for example, {{ChrisGendo}}. All staff have their own templates, even if they don't have alternate names, just to turn their names yellow; use them whenever possible as there is currently no way to automatically parse them as such.

===Message Boxes===
Currently, message boxes exist for the following situations:
* Stub: A page is nowhere close to complete and needs significant work done
* WIP: A page is almost done, has most basic information, but still needs more
* InProgress: The page's subject matter is currently ongoing and may change suddenly
* PrivateVideo: Put this under a video that is currently private/lost. Use a different one for each private video (''not'' one per article).

More are expected as need necessary.

===Matchboxes===
A "match box" is a box that can be used to put basic information about a tennis match. The current version is "V2" and should be used instead of V1 so updates retain to each one across the site.

Their documentation can be found [[Template:MatchboxV2|here.]]

===Navboxes===
The following navigation boxes ("navboxes") exist for ease of communication across the site:
* Tournaments: Lists all canon [[tennis tournaments]].
{{Tournaments}}
* Types: Lists all common types of tennis.
{{Types}}

More are expected as need necessary.

==Resources==
This section has resources for wiki-building elements.
* https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki The MediaWiki home page, where most things can be found.
* https://www.tablesgenerator.com/mediawiki_tables Table Generator for MediaWiki - can also do Markdown, etc.

'''{{BMATF}} vs. Markie''' is a YTP/video [[tennis match]] played from August 19 to September 3, 2007, and the [[YTP Tennis#The first matches|second ever tennis match ever played.]] Originally with a swapped serve order, Markie's classes prevented them from completing a serve in time leading to {{BMATF}} to create one instead roughly a day after the game was announced.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79522-tennis-bigmarioandtailsfan-vs-markie/1.html#post-3285964</ref> Rules for tennis as a whole were still very rough, with a somewhat differing ruleset from [[Conradslater vs. Misselaineous10]] presented:

* ROUNDS - 6
* 24 hour deadline. BE SHARP
* 3 POOPS EACH
* 5 clip addition per round
* keep it under 3 minutes
* win conditions not set<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79522-tennis-bigmarioandtailsfan-vs-markie/1.html#post-3280203</ref>


Similar to conradslater vs. Miss10, "win conditions" were omitted but still left as a potential condition. BMATF mentions they feel like they'll lose anyway, which Markie responds "There is no winner", a precursor to the "No one Wins at Tennis, Ever!" rule adopted as time went on.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79522-tennis-bigmarioandtailsfan-vs-markie/1.html#post-3280207</ref>

Added sources include ''Zelda: Wand of Gamalon'' (CD-i, 1993), ''Link: The Faces of Evil'' (CD-i, 1993), the 2007 Volvic commercials, a Fox 11 report on hacker group Anonymous ("Hackers on STEROIDS"), the ''Happy Tree Friends'' TV Show (2007), ''The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog'' (1993), ''Lucky Star'' (2007), ''Super Mario World'' TV Series (1991), and ''Metalocalypse'' (2006).

This was the first match for both players. While the match only went five rounds, it is still considered complete; this was part of a wave of designated completions to various ancient matches made before the standard six rounds in modern play were established. The "full" match was compiled to {{YWBW}} in September 2025.

'''conradslater vs Misselaineous10''' is a YouTube Poop/video [[tennis match]] that took place between August 11 to August 21, 2007. It is recognized as [[YTP_Tennis#The_first_matches|the first video tennis match ever played]].

In the months leading up to the organization of this match, Conrad Slater had already long been a fan and participant of [[Photoshop Tennis]], which was at the time flourishing on sites such as [http://www.worth1000.com/ worth1000], [http://www.layertennis.com/ layertennis.com] and [http://photoshopcontest.com/ photoshopcontest.com].<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref> Evidence exists on the old [[YouChew]] forums of him engaging with the community in such an activity earlier in the summer of 2007. Considered to be a visionary of his generation, it was not long after that Conrad put together the natural equation of [[YouTube Poop]] as it was at the time with the context of a [[tennis]] exchange, as such an exchange with video had yet to happen on the internet. His original post asking for an opponent is occasionally remembered for its very forward thinking and casual approach to a medium that hadn't even existed before it: "I've got some time free now - althogh I should be doing poroper work - I quite fancy making a few quick rounds; 6 - rounds - 3 [videos] each. 24 hour limit per round, 3 clip addition per round, no time limit on each [video], no winner"<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79347-1st-ever-poop-tennis-game-conradslater-vs-misselaineous10/1.html#post-3273854</ref>

Misselaineous10 originally expressed interest, but did not immediately accept due to personal life events.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79347-1st-ever-poop-tennis-game-conradslater-vs-misselaineous10/1.html#post-3273856</ref> She finally officially joined the match as Conrad's opponent three days after his serve was made, and finished her Round 2 only a couple of hours later.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79347-1st-ever-poop-tennis-game-conradslater-vs-misselaineous10/1.html#post-3278937</ref> The rest of the match was completed over the following week.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79347-1st-ever-poop-tennis-game-conradslater-vs-misselaineous10/1.html#post-3288893</ref> conradslater notably uses [[Final Cut Pro]] and [[After Effects]] for his rounds, years before either software would become more visibly used, and Misselaineous10 uses [[Adobe Premiere]] for her rounds. Sources added throughout the match include ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', ''Final Fantasy: Unlimited'', the ''Super Mario World'' animated series, ''Mighty Morphin Power Rangers'', ''Sonic The Hedgehog''(PS3, 2006), ''Hotel Mario''(CD-i, 1994), the classic Christmas 1998 home video uploaded on YouTube as "Nintendo Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOOUR"(2006), the amateur short film ''Freddy vs. Ghostbusters''(2004), a smoking fetish film from the 1970s, the song "Mr. Roboto"(1983) by Styx, the main theme of ''Tetris''(Game Boy, 1989), and various Youtube Poop "official" intros.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref>

Both players were still fairly new to the YTP medium altogether, with Misselaineous10 detailing in an article written by {{RabbitSnore}} about the match in November 2007, “I was just starting to be on my own. In the beginning, I did [videos] with my brother, Toadomos.”<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref>
As soon as only a matter of months after the match's completion, it was being celebrated, documented and discussed in detail not only for being the first match ever played, but also as a match of fantastic quality and entertainment value in its own right. Round 5 and 6 in particular continue to be praised and remembered for the earth-shattering precedents that they set for the visual, energetic and musical editing present across both videos. Round 5's audio was originally intended to be edited properly by Conrad, but he subsequently left it as he originally heard it, stating that it "blew his head off" upon playback.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref> He would also praise Misselaineous10's Round 6 as "a benchmark of extremism", further adding in retrospect “I think that last round is beautiful and amazing and perhaps one of the reasons why people wanted to try tennis out for themselves.”<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref> {{RabbitSnore}} summarized the match aptly as "a paragon of [video] tennis, the [rounds] superb, the editing never lazy. This is the way [video] tennis ought to be played." He also around the same time referred to it as the best tennis match he had ever seen, going on to give particular praise to Miss10's Round 6 as a favorite and highlight. He would express the desire to play both players, both matches of which would happen. <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/79347-1st-ever-poop-tennis-game-conradslater-vs-misselaineous10/1.html#post-3434476</ref>

In the early versions of Rabbit's Tennis Café threads, he and {{Crash2991}} often brought up this match as part of the early canon consisting of tennis's best and most legendary matches, which included the oft-mentioned [[RabbitSnore vs. conradslater]](2007) and [[MilkR0und vs. Y2Zero]](2007). This match is often seen as setting a template for much of the tennis that was to follow after it, with Round 5 and 6 of this match in particular being seen as a gateway to many matches that would rely on increasingly intense visual and aural editing to the extent that it would become the dominant image of tennis entirely. This was among the handful of matches that received reference in RabbitSnore's early tennis document ''The Observational Guide to [YTP] Tennis'', which also named the matches [[Stegblob vs. TyrannosaurusReich]], [[BMATF vs. UncleChuckTH vs. Wikiwow]], [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]], [[Thereisnospoon303 vs. RabbitSnore]], and [[MilkR0und vs. Y2Zero]]<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/75585-an-observational-guide-to-poop-tennis/1.html</ref>, and was one of few to carry over into the revised versions published on [[YellowTealPurple]] in 2025.<ref>https://yellowtealpurple.net/forums/threads/the-revised-observational-guide-to-video-tennis.1962/</ref> In 2026, UncleChuckTH observed:

"It's fascinating how the first match with Conrad and Miss10 set precedents that largely remain adhered to. Video titles are generally still in concert with each other, rounds are still often between 1 and 2 minutes long, and there are a lot of final rounds running around that function as pseudo-musical montages."<ref>https://yellowtealpurple.net/forums/threads/the-video-tennis-cafe-on-the-ground-floor-of-the-hotel-tennis.30/post-43771</ref>

The match has been referenced many times throughout its history; being sampled in {{GameBop}}'s Round 1 with {{Sploltoen}} and {{MycroProcessor}} in the [[3-Way Tennis Tournament]], [[GameBop vs. Sploltoen vs. MycroProcessor|"Seconds, Anyone?" (2010)]], in {{Moogle}}'s Round 1 of the [[Tennis Staff Multi Way]], "What, do you want me to play with your tail?" (2009), in {{dani_phantump}}'s Round 4 with CaptainStringCheese (2012), in {{mrdoognoog}}'s round 4 vs. {{fiv95}} (2021), and in {{TheChutley}}'s Round 1 with {{Veritylarsen}}(2025). The match remains fully preserved; Conrad's rounds were privated for many years before being made public again in late 2025 in anticipation of the documentary "The World of Youtube Poop" by Clique Here, in which he is prominently featured. Misselaineous10 deleted her account in 2018, but subsequently reuploaded all of her video output in 2019 onto her little known alt account Sashimisushi; her account was also archived by DKL3 in 2016 allowing better quality copies of all her videos to be preserved. The match was first compiled into a single video on the official tennis archive channel {{YouWouldBeWelcome}}, which was named as an inverse to Round 1 of this match, "You wouldn't be welcome", in January 2020.

The Great Restoration

2026-04-08T17:14:26Z

Admin:

[[The Great Restoration]] is an ongoing tennis archival and recovery project spearheaded by {{dani_phantump}}, {{VidTens443}}, RaymanChrome, and iminio that began in March 2026. Through specific means, it was discovered at the end of the month previous to the project commencing that it was possible to recover the videos of any YouTube account that had been terminated by a third party at any time. Previously, this method had been used by the Recycle Bin collective to locate and extract lost videos by MeiAIDS, at which point {{dani_phantump}} crafted a list of names essential in the world of tennis that could also benefit from such retrieval. The first tennis videos to be fetched in this way were the long-lost uploads of PapaGonzales; this allowed the beginning of the restoration of much missing data from the [[Tennis League 1]], including the first ever compilation of a full match from that event, Misselaioneous10 vs. PapaGonzales(2007).

The process is being carrying out through API downloaders at a rate of only a few each day depending on the allowed quotas; one source is reported to be anonymous, with requests sent through a chain of connections between the team and the one fetching the files. Recovery is additionally only possible if existing links exist for those works that were under terminated accounts, making the [[YouChew]] archives, the Wayback Machine and collections of crawled YouTube data indispensable resources for locating the desired material, the latter especially regarding certain videos for which no other source of a link exists.

The name "The Great Restoration" has its origins in messages about tennis recovery written by {{dani_phantump}} in the [[Tennis Isles]] discord as early as September 2024, which they have subsequently jokingly described as "mad, prophetic visions" about the potential restoration of many matches that have been long lost. As of this writing, many names that contributed throughout tennis who had their accounts terminated by a third party stand to have their works recovered, including TyrannosaurusReich, {{theHappyFungus}}, SergeantBacon, HighVoltageChrist, Ishkibibl, BMATF from his original account BigMarioAndTailsFan, Terroristx123, sonicnerd23, SushieBoy, Gallers, MVJ52197, seconteen13, MilkR0und, Y2Zero, MasuginaChicken, Christoph2772, scimath12, KonXII, {{Nuthead}} from her original account jellytime69, Gnomebob, Tentor521, pimpsahoy, Glitchboyadvance, Zatchy, TangerineImpz, AmazingCucumber, RideTheCatfish, BSP666c's original account, ZippZapp, ADHDYoshi, and others.<ref>https://yellowtealpurple.net/forums/threads/tennis-backup-archives-history.2293/post-43753</ref>

''(not to be confused with [[STAMMER]].)''

Stutter Loops are the process of repeating a single, very short sequence of video/audio over and over again to create a 'buzzing' or 'stuttering' effect. Stutter loops have many variations, often sorted into "plus" and "minus" categories.<ref>https://youtu.be/z1v6gLMAKek?t=97</ref>

=Types=

==Traditional==
A stutter loop without any additions between repetitions. Simply the audio and the video being repeated.

==Stutter Loop Plus==
The same as a traditional stutter loop, but each repeat has a different filter/etc. applied to the video and/or audio. This can make the loops seem more chaotic.

==Stutter Loop Minus==
A stutter loop without any video at all; only the audio is present.

==Hyperstuttering==

This is a technique that lets you create very high pitched buzzing noises with incredible variance.

You need two tools to make this work:
* A video/audio editor that lets you loop a bounded over and over again ''while being able to change the bounds.'' Alongside this, the bounds must be able to go ''between frames.'' [[Vegas]] fits this category and thus is the most common tool for this sort of effect.
* A capturing device, like [[OBS]]

To make this work, all you need to do is set the bounds of your program to a particular spot, usually a frame apart. Then, start recording. Play the video, making sure it loops. Gradually move one end of the bound closer to the other, and the video will loop faster and faster... at this point, the video will remain a single frame, but the audio will begin to "speed up"! Eventually it will turn into an incredibly high pitched buzz. You can play around with this for a while, moving in and out and seeing what kinds of sounds you can make. You can also drag the barrier itself around to create different sounds based on where you are in the video. If you do it slowly enough, the buzzing can fade into new parts for another really cool sounding effect.

Once you are satisfied, save the recording and import it into your editor!

The '''Tennis League {{5}}''', also known as '''TL5''' was a [[tennis tournament]] held from 2019 to 2020 on [[YTPMania]]. It was the seventeenth tournament overall and the first of four to be hosted on that site.

It was hosted by {{mrdoognoog}}, {{VidTens443}}, {{nm41}}, {{dew}}, and Morshe, marking the official beginning of the post-[[YouChew]] era of tennis tournaments. It returned to many of the fundamental tenants of the [[Tennis League 4]], now with the added gimmick of divisions rotating through different match types like the [[Tennis Season]], including Wildcard, Single Source, [[Multiplied Time]], [[Noplug]], and Standard/"Vanilla". For the first time since the [[Doubles Cup 1]], votes were collected entirely by public poll, but with no judge votes used at all. It was eventually won by {{Razerek}}<ref>https://ytpmania.net/t/tl5-final-cheechee-vs-nmfourtyone-vidtens443-vs-mafar-vs-lopunnyboy-zevio-vs-razerek-done-vote/7224/31</ref>, making him the second ever person to win a tennis tournament twice, and the first to win two tournaments in a row.

The tournament captured the tennis community in a complete system reset, with nearly all the old community having since scattered or retired from tennis. Initially, when tennis operations had fully relocated to YTPMania following [[YouChew]]'s closure, a new tournament was teased by the [[tennis staff]] of the time but nothing ever came to fruition, and after a year's time many members would post statements of retirement instead, including {{Biodegradable}}, {{CorruptionSound}}, {{MycroProcessor}} and {{Metroid998}}. The Tennis League 5 was thusly the first conjured by a completely new generation of players, with {{VidTens443}} stating in the introductory post for the event that "many years had passed" since a tournament took place (in fact, only two years had passed since the beginning of the [[Doubles Cup 3]].)

Sentiment of the tournament was generally negative. While initial hype was very high as it had been some time since the previous tournament (the [[Doubles Cup 3]] had ended just over a year before and the League format had not been attempted since 2014), criticism began to emerge as the tournament continued to go on, something that had plagued the previous two league tournaments as well. Replacements became abundant to the point where later sets had to be modified to account for the reduced amount of players. Staff at the time had agreed to never try the tournament again, however in recent years thoughts about returning the format with significant changes has been proposed. The [[Bronze Tennis League]] came directly at the result of host {{ivan}}'s discontent with the tournament, played in a smaller scale to successful completion.

It was the first tennis competition to feature {{CRJ1}}, {{Milk Gaming Channel}}, {{system128}}, {{Nubman41}}, {{mrdoognoog}}, {{Wodienfor}}, {{Instert Name Here}}, {{Gabiwoda}}, {{DatComputerGuy}}, {{BortLoco}}, {{AngryLuigi23}} and ZeroLittleWords, the final tennis competition to feature {{mafar}}, {{Sploltoen}}, {{BoomDaCorgi1337}}, MAZZ0Murder, {{CamHead}}, and {{ClassicBirch}}, and the only tournament to feature {{AwesomeGuy117}}, Extrenor, {{PoopTV}}, TyrannosAsh420, poprox101, afterbirth!, SuperPoopBros, {{sull0}}, KaiPixelLeap7800 and Ian O'Keefe.

=Layout=
TL5 was laid out very similar to [[TL4]], with a twist. combining the league format as well as the gameweek variations seem in the [[Tennis Season]], each player would go through five different types of matches. These were:
* A regular, "vanilla" match
* [[Multiplied Time Tennis]] (starting at 16 seconds)
* [[NoPlug Tennis]]
* Single Source Tennis - a source, usually a TV show or movie, was decided on, which was the only available option for the whole match.
* [[Wildcard Tennis]]

While interesting on paper, many of these special tennis types resulted in unfair advantages for players depending on if they made even or odd rounds (in particular, MTT and Wildcard).

{{Razerek}} won this match, thus winning the tournament.

=Post-Tournament=

Once the tournament had completed, an "outro" for the match was created by {{mrdoognoog}} which was created in the style as a similar outro created by {{FXExpert}} for their final round of the [[Tennis League 4]].

The tournament captured the tennis community in a complete system reset, with nearly all the old community having since scattered or retired from tennis. Initially, when tennis operations had fully relocated to YTPMania following [[YouChew]]'s closure, a new tournament was teased by the [[tennis staff]] of the time but nothing ever came to fruition, and after a year's time many members would post statements of retirement instead, including {{Biodegradable}}, {{CorruptionSound}}, {{MycroProcessor}} and {{Metroid998}}. The Tennis League 5 was thusly the first conjured by a completely new generation of players, with {{VidTens443}} stating in the introductory post for the event that "many years had passed" since a tournament took place (in fact, only two years had passed since the beginning of the [[Doubles Cup 3]].)

Sentiment of the tournament was generally negative.

Debugmode Wax

2026-04-02T14:51:14Z

Admin: /* Usage */

[[Category:Plugins]]
[[Category:Video Editors]]

[[File:Waxscrn.png|thumb|Wax in action. Taken from DebugMode's website.]]

'''Debugmode Wax''', known usually as just '''Wax''' is a video compositor by Satish Kumar for Windows, and was a commonly used tool for 3D [[tennis]] effects from the late 2000's to the early 2010's.<ref>https://www.debugmode.com/wax.html</ref> Known for its distinct look and unique set of capabilities, it was eventually replaced in the meta by more capable editors like [[After Effects]] and [[Blender]] or by 3D plugin sets like in [[BCC]]. The earliest known usage of the plugin is in [[YTP_Tennis#The_first_matches|the fifth match ever played]], GameCubeHero vs. BMATF(2007), in which it was prominently used by the former player.

Wax was notable because of its ability to be used as both a ''plugin'' and a ''standalone editor''. If installed as a plugin, you could load it into any 32-Bit video editor (like old version of [[Vegas]]) and use it directly inside.

=Usage=
While more primitive compared to modern editors, Wax shares many of the same basic features of other non-linear editors. Footage can be added into the "MediaPool", then dragged onto the timeline wherever you wish. From here, plugins and transitions can be added to footage as needed.

==Rendering==
Wax can fail to render if the extension on the output file is missing.

==Timeline Global Settings==
The timeline has global settings that affect certain parts of the frame's 3D space. This is disabled by default and must be enabled by clicking the check-box next to the timecode in the timeline.

The options that can be changed here are:
* Ambient Color
* Smooth Shading (enabled by default)
* Shadows
* View Mode - How you want the scene to be viewed. By default this is "Fill", however there is also "Lines" (which renders as wireframe) and "Points" (which renders as points).

[[File:Wax lineviewmode.jpg]]

* Camera - 3D transformations for the scene camera.

==Importing 3rd-party Plugins==
Various video editors, such as [[Windows Movie Maker]] 2.6 can have their plugins directly imported into Wax. This can be done by adding the folders of these editors into Wax's "preferences" -> "3rd party plugin folders" menu. In the case of Windows Movie Maker, these imported effects/transitions will appear under their respective menu in the DirectX panel.

=Video Plugins=
Wax has a small, but powerful collection of effects (known as "video plugins". It also has a very large set of presets to work with.

Wax also has compatibility with [[FreeFrame]] and certain DirectX plugins (like older versions of [[NewBlue]]).
==3D Effects==
Wax's 3D effects are split into two categories - Basic and General.

===Basic===
* '''Transform 3D''' - allows the footage to be transformed in 3D space (transformation, scale, rotation, etc.) This effect is prerequisite for all other 3D effects and is added automatically if not present when one is added in.
* '''Objects 3D''' - converts the footage into a 3D primitive object. These include a plane (default), a cube, a sphere, a cylinder, or a torus.

[[File:Wax objects3d cube.jpg]]

* '''Lights 3D''' - adds lights to a 3D scene.

===General===
* '''Text 3D''' - creates text in 3D.

[[File:Wax text3d.jpg ]]

* '''Shatter''' - "shatters" a 3D object. One of the more versatile Wax effects, as it can be manipulated to warp shapes and create interesting 3D shapes.

There are two major "modes" to the shatter effect: "standard" and "bulge". Standard is your regular triangular shatter effect, while Bulge instead stretches the 3D shape to the shape of the bulge.

Some tips and tricks for working with Shatter:
* The shatter effect is animated by default. If you don't want this, set the Force variable to a non-zero value.
* The "shatter" itself is an object that manipulates whatever is around it. Multiple shatters can be combined to make complicated modifications to shapes, especially if Bulge is turned on.

File:Bulge reverse example.jpg|Setting the Force to a negative number results in shapes turning themselves inside out!
File:Large polygon cube negative.jpg|Setting the Fragment Size to higher than 1.0 leads to giant triangles.
</gallery>

* '''Vortex''' - creates a 3D vortex out of the footage. One of Wax's most well known effects.

[[File:Wax vortex.jpg]]

* '''[[Particles]]''' - "Creates natural effects using a group of particles to simulate fire, water, smoke etc."

[[File:Wax particles.jpg]]

* '''Model Loader''' - "Loads 3D models and objects from external files." Supports [[3DS Max|.3DS]], .MD2 (The model format for ''Quake II'') and .MS3d (''MilkShake 3D'')<ref>https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/MilkShape_3D</ref> models.

==2D Effects==
Wax's 2D effects are split into two categories - General and Color.

===General===
* '''Texture Generator''' - A [[Generated Media|media generation]] tool based on [[Noise]] functions that optionally can be overlaid over the source footage. Can also be used to [[Replication|tile]] the footage, based on the top left corner.

<gallery>
File:Wax texturegenerator.jpg|An example texture generation, being tiled over the source image.
File:Wax texturegenerator tiling.jpg|Texture Generator's tiling capabilities. Notice how it replicates from the top right rather than cloning the whole image.
</gallery>

* '''Quick 3D''' - "Create a quick 3D view of a video. This is [[3D Space#Fake 3D|not a 3D plugin]] so cannot be used with other 3D plugins."
* '''PixelStretch''' - "stretches" pixels in any direction. Similar in effect to the "slide" tiling pattern in CC RepeTile or the "cropping" parameter of [[NewBlueFX|NewBlue Wiggle]].

<gallery>
File:Wax pixelstretch.jpg|
</gallery>

* '''RotoMate''' - "Provides tools to rotoscope/paint on the video with shapes, masks, keyframes and more."
* '''Warp (WinMorph)''' - a plugin that lets you hook into [[WinMorph]] to use its warping functionality directly from Wax. "Warps the image/video using control shapes drawn by the user."
* '''Shatter Image''' - "Shatters images/videos into pieces. This is not a 3d plugin so cannot be used with other 3d plugins."

Color
* '''[[Chroma Key]]''' - "Makes a portion of a video transparent based on the selected color so tracks below the keyed video show through in the composited (mixed) output."

'''{{system128}} vs. {{mrdoognoog}}''' is a video [[tennis match]] that occurred from May 22 to June 28, 2021. It is the second meeting between the two players, with the two facing off in alternate serving order as part of {{mrdoognoog}}'s [[Alternate Persona Tennis#gophrmann|"gophrmann" alternate reality game]]. The match was one of three final matches (set five) of the [[Match Voting Tournament II]], which mrdoognoog was also a host of. The other two games of this set were {{saper}} vs. {{hyk}}/captaingoosehead as well as {{Zekii}} vs. {{False Flesh}}. The two would go on to win, thus winning the entire tournament. This would be the second time a host won their own tournament, after {{GameBop}}'s host and victory of the [[Match Voting Tournament|first match voting tournament.]]

The match took direct inspiration from the [[Tennis Cup 4]] match between [[CorruptionSound vs. dani phantump|{{dew}} and {{corruptionsound}}]] as well as the [[Match Voting Tournament]] match between {{GameBop}} and Ravinrabbid123. The layout of each round follows a very similar format to the former match, where a "regular" sequence plays out for the first half while the second half is a [[pseudo-YTPMV]]. These latter sequences are one of the more well known of the match, sometimes known as the "dancing camel sequences" due to the prominence of the Perl logo (a camel) being added to each one. Starting in round 2, there is also a continuing [[Multirender]] sequence that is added onto by each player.

As encouraged by the tournament layout, both players worked together to plan how the match would pan out, often encouraging ideas and sources (as well as when to use them). Prominent sources include "The Junk Mail" (S9, E5, 1997) of ''Seinfeld'' ("Oh yea, as long as I stop getting MAIL"), ''Téléfrançais!'' (1984), the ''Second City Television (SCTV)'' skit series ''Half-Wits'', the music video for "Fire is Coming" (2019) by Flying Lotus and David Lynch, The Geometry Center's ''Outside in'' (1994) ("Like a basketball!"), and the pilot for ''Peep and the Big Wide World'' (1988). Other notable sources include the "Lake" theme from ''Pokemon Diamond and Pearl'' (DS, 2006), ''Star Fox 64'' (N64, 1997), the "Legacy Island" theme from ''Plok!'' (SNES, 1993), the Editing Mode theme from ''Elebits'' (Wii, 2006), debug mode footage from ''Super Monkey Ball 2'' (GameCube, 2002), ARG web series ''Catastrophe Crow!'', "Ocean Song" (1976) by Jon Anderson, the final boss sequence of ''Kirby Returns to Dreamland'' (Wii, 2011), "Sugar Plum Fairy" from Tchaikovsky's ''The Nutcracker'' (1892), a composite of four ''Super Mario Bros.'' (1985) speedruns, and a recording by {{knorr}} of the service mode of unreleased Atari game ''Arcade Classics'' (1992). Many Newgrounds and ''Geometry Dash''-adjacent songs were used as well, in particular for the longer musical sequences. These include "A Tiny Spaceship's Final Mission" (2013) by Fantomenk, "HyperioxX" (2009) by ParagonX9, the 2017 version of "Nhelv" (2017) by Silentroom, and the original Newgrounds upload of "Lit Fuse" (2015) by Cacola. The latter of these songs had a ''Geometry Dash'' level (also called Lit Fuse) by player KrmaL of which its visuals served as inspiration for those used in its corresponding section of the match.

The match was celebrated shortly after completion, with many [[tennis staff]] like {{infinitysnapz}} and {{Letycjusz S.}} calling it one of their favorite matches at the time. Despite this initial praise later reception has been mixed; it has been acknowledged that the maximalist approach taken by both players was an important stepping stone of the "trapezoidium" era of tennis, where players paid much more attention to outdoing their opponents than having fun.

It is the 43rd completed match (71st started) by {{mrdoognoog}}<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kyI3Zz-E9ckQOHxGjtAU-fLnqzZlBUo04Z6xc5hAYnE/</ref> and the 77th completed (90th started) by {{system128}}<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eF4i0kDYZFjpO26ipXFjOte6bBc_ifXjPh6xy_Y5B0Y/edit?gid=0#gid=0</ref>.

'''Ishkibibl vs. {{NS2}}''' was a [[YouTube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match played on the [[YouChew forums]] between July 28 and August 16, 2008. It was the final match of the [[Tennis Cup]], with Ishkibibl having previously defeated Temeku/MTB710 and NS2 having previously defeated ophios in the semi-final set. It was also the farthest that either player would ever get within a tournament structure; the [[Tennis Cup]] was Ishkibibl's only tournament and one of two tournaments to be played in by NS2, both in 2008. Played during an era in which tournament matches had a hard week deadline for all 6 rounds to be completed, an extension was made to accommodate for NS2 going on vacation, after which the two players had a small amount of time to complete more than half of their match and managed to do so just before the deadline.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/76274-tennis-cup-coverage-happy-end/1.html</ref> Sources used throughout the match include ''Saved By The Bell'', three of Ishkibibl's own videos, ''Pulp Fiction''(1994), ''Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty''(PS2, 2001), ''Tomoyo After: It's a Wonderful Life''(PC, 2005), ''Gears of War''(Xbox 360, 2006), ''Whose Line Is It Anyway?''(Season 3 Episode 9), ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni'', a Pontiac Fiero commercial, "The Stegbus Goes On A Drunken Rampage"(2008) by AbsoluteBillion, ''Batman''(1989), ''Amistad''(1997), ''Kanon'', The Daft Punk song "Something About Us"(2001), and a television performance of The Doors playing "Light My Fire"(1967).

It was the sixth and final match completed by Ishkibibl<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1.html#post-934794 Almost all of Ishkibibl's matches were played as part of the Tennis Cup, with only the match with his brother PlasmaFetus existing as an outlier.</ref> and the ninth match completed by NS2<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1.html#post-934740 NS2's roster is unique in that it does not differentiate between "complete" and "failed" matches, instead listing matches "played" regardless of status. As RetardedAnimeParody is the only listed match that is not 6 rounds long before Ishkibibl, it is passed over for this designation.</ref>. The match was actively and excitedly spectated for much of its duration, with Ish's Round 3 in particular being considered by some such as Captpan6 to be the best tennis round they had ever seen, and one of the best rounds in the entire competition. Predominantly musical or rhythmic editing takes up his side of the match in addition to his other signatures of stutter and frame-scramble based editing, making for an early memorable and effective strategy for performing strongly in a tournament setting. NS2 focused his strategy largely around the augmentation of effective sources and his usual brand of clever, simple edits executed in WMM, and was considered to have made an admirable and solid argument for victory, especially with his Round 6, "ZACH'S CHEMGASM"(2008), the final video of the [[Tennis Cup]]. In a review of the match written by {{strong414bad}}, he regarded Round 3 as "a really well-done tennis round and it's unlike anything I've ever seen from Tennis" and Round 4 as "a very effective Tennis round and a surprisingly uplifting [YTP]. It's an amazing response to an amazing round, and it turns the match from great to legendary." He concluded by describing the match as "one of the best matches I've seen, and it's highly reccommended for everybody who loves the game."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/76274-tennis-cup-coverage-happy-end/1.html</ref>

According to a preface of that same review:

"Since the final match of the Tennis Cup ended so close to the deadline and the final match deserved more than a total of four votes, the voting was extended for a day. At the end of the day, voting seemed to show that both players did fantastically well as the two tied, both with a total of nine votes. Since there needed to be a champion, voting was extended once again for 24 hours. This time, a winner was deciding by a mere two votes."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/76274-tennis-cup-coverage-happy-end/1.html</ref>

By this immensely close margin, the winner ended up becoming Ishkibibl, making him the first member to recieve the then brand new "Tennis Tourney Winner" trophy on the forums. NS2 said to sonicnerd23 regarding his narrow defeat, "Ishkibibl deserves your recognition. He is an amazing [creator]. He stands out because his videos are so good." Ishkibibl's quaint reaction to winning was "What the fuck, I won the tennis cup? Goddamnit I never wanted to win. I FUCKING HATE YOU ALL HURDURRRRR".<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/5-the-poop-tennis-caf/98.html#post-617715</ref> NS2's rounds continue to survive in their original uploads, and {{dani_phantump}} listed Round 6 as one of their all time favorite YTPs in 2015. Ishkibibl' original account was terminated not long after this match had completed and the tournament ended, and for years only his Round 3, "ZACH'S MUSICALGASM"(2008), remained as surviving evidence of his performance in this match. His missing rounds are now being restored through the efforts of [[The Great Restoration]], and Round 5 was recovered and reuploaded in March 2026.

[[glitchboyadvance vs. conradslater]] is a Youtube Poop/Video [[tennis]] match that took place on the "Vanilla" era [[YouChew]] forums between September 1 and 4, 2007, with a belated Round 7 being contributed on October 19. [[YTP_Tennis#The_first_matches|It was the ninth tennis match ever played]] and the first ever match to end at 7 rounds, rather than what would become the established standard of six. Sources added include one of the "official" Youtube Poop intros, glitchboyadvance's own now-famous "Because YOUTUBE is where the POOP is!" intro, ''The Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog'', ''Star Fox 64''(N64, 1997), Bono's "World AIDS Day" promo, ''Link: The Faces of Evil''(CD-i, 1993), ''The O'Reilly Factor'', ''Dr. Rabbit's World Tour!''(1998), footage of fellow YTPer/tennis player Gnomebob, the ''Super Mario World'' animated series, ''Codename: The Kids Next Door'', a 1990s McDonalds commercial, ''Pokemon: The Animated Series'', ''Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam''(CD-i, 1994), a 1987 "Bowling Death" Public Service Announcement about HIV/AIDS, ''LazyTown'', "wairwolf screaming at a snake", a commercial for "1-800-HIV-TEST", the Herbie Hancock song "Rocket"(1983), "lego bathroom",<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7zlBy0ahgE Round 4's description</ref> Chad Warden's "Why the PS3 is better than the Wii and 360 (part 1)"(2007), ''Mario Party 2''(N64, 2000), "DJMAX ON VIDEO (with Japanese Subtitles)", "DJMAX Portable 2 A lie MV", and "DJMAX Portable 2 Brainstorm MV".<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/80111-tennis-glitchboyadvance-vs-conradslater/1.html#post-3395605</ref>

It was the only full tennis match completed by glitchboyadvance and the third match completed by conradslater. The match grows increasingly more minimal and experimental into its second half, with Conrad in particular utilizing multiple simple slow-downs of the previous round to the extent that "The Horror"(2007), his final round, is rendered entirely in black-and-white and underscored with atmospheric music to create an ominous, "spooky" result. With a whole vein of tennis appearing in the years to follow to explore slow pace and atmosphere, this match is considered to be tremendously influential upon the community, along with subsequent matches played by Conrad to explore a similar vein of style. glitchboyadvance vs. conradslater was widely celebrated; TangerineImpz remarked "Conrad's Tennis Poops are always freaking epic, me thinks."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/80111-tennis-glitchboyadvance-vs-conradslater/1.html#post-3298871</ref> and UncleChuckTH, who considered Round 4 to be the best round<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7zlBy0ahgE&lc=UgzhUOXqUfgepxdNxSV4AaABAg</ref>, added "Conrad's are always awesome. Prolly cause of awesome use of unused clips."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/80111-tennis-glitchboyadvance-vs-conradslater/1.html#post-3300470</ref> peskyplumber quipped about Conrad's Round 6 "That's creepier than that creepy bowser's laugh".<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFMTGPGF-_E&lc=UgzzzEBFQmiGo0NaFTV4AaABAg</ref>

Conrad's rounds were privated for many years before being made public again in late 2025 in anticipation of the documentary "The World of Youtube Poop" by Clique Here, in which he is prominently featured, though the original title of Round 2, "not HIM - the one next to him - the black"(2007), had been changed to the less slighty offensive "YTP Tennis with glitchboyadvance" to account for potential exposure to a more modern audience. glitchboyadvance's account was terminated sometime around 2010 or later, but his rounds are slated to be possibly restored through the efforts of [[The Great Restoration]]; UncleChuckTH made a personal request for the recovery of glitchboyadvance's rounds in February 2026.<ref>https://yellowtealpurple.net/forums/threads/the-video-tennis-cafe-on-the-ground-floor-of-the-hotel-tennis.30/post-43117</ref>

The '''Fourth Poop Chain''' or the '''Pizza Chain''' was a [[Youtube Poop Tennis]] [[Chains|Chain]] started by TheNeopreneJunebug in 2011. Due to the source chosen to start the chain, every subsequent round became unintentionally themed around pizza in some way, to the extent that it was eventually considered a defacto rule for round responses. It originally lasted 19 rounds from March 22, 2011 to July 21, 2014.

TheNeopreneJuneBug, ChrisGendo, RobochaoXX returned from the [[Chain 3]] to participate, and UncleChuckTH also returned from the original chain to make Round 3. {{GameBop}} and Luioigi remained the only two players to have been a part of every previous official chain, though this would be Luioigi's final appearance in such a tennis event. There were two "eras" of this chain - the official one, and a second "revival" starting in 2022. This revival can be split into two parts; one that takes place entirely in 2022 that consists of rounds 19 through 23; the original round 23 by Luigikart12 was lost after it was deleted shortly after upload (along with the rest of Luigikart12's channel) which once again stalled activity. After two years of inactivity this revival was continued by {{Lety}} in 2025, remaining active into the present day. {{dani_phantump}}'s Round 25, their third contribution to the chain in a span of 15 years, made the move to "end" the pizza theming of the chain in order for it to progress more freely.

Databending

[[Category:Techniques]]

Databending is a type of [[Digital Distortion]] that involves the general technique of intentionally messing with (usually) video files to corrupt their output. There are many, ''many'' ways to perform databending, all with different results and effects. Most commonly, this is done using [[Audacity]] or a corruption tool like Windows Glitch Harvester. You can also manually edit the file in an improper fashion, such as opening it up in a text editor and changing random values. While this works, it often can be inconsistent and lead to broken results.

[[Datamoshing]] is a common form of this that lets you 'mosh' videos together.

=Video Corruption=

==With the [[Nuvotion]] Suite==
AVsync.LIVE Mosh (part of the Nuvotion Suite) has a whole suite of databending tools. See the related article for more!

==With [[Audacity]]==
Audacity is the tried and true most effective way to databend.

A quick start guide:
# Render the footage you want to databend ''as an AVI video file.''
# Open Audacity and create a new project.
# Select Import -> "Raw Data..." -> The video you wish to import.
# In the subsequent import menu, set "Encoding" to U-Law, "Byte Order" to "No endianness", and "Channels" to "Stereo". Leave everything else. [[File:Rawdatapreset audacity.png|right]]
# The file should not be imported. If you play it, it will sound like distorted static; ''this is normal''. It's reading video data as audio, which doesn't play well.
# Select the region you wish to databend. If this means the whole video, ''do not'' select the whole thing; select as much as you can while leaving the ends of the video untouched. This is to stop the databending from overwriting important meta information required to actually play the file.
# Now we can databend! This is done by selecting Effect -> any effect you choose. Some work better than others, and each does its own thing. You can add as many or few as you want. Many of these can be seen in the video below:

<youtube>RSsfqHOR-4Q</youtube>

* Now that your video is complete, it is time to render. Select "File -> "Export Audio..." and save as a '''.RAW File''' to the designated area. Ignore any warnings about missing EXIF data or similar.
* Once the file is done, change it back to an AVI file and play! If you did everything write, the video should play, but look distorted. Databend complete!

==With Windows Glitch Harvester==
Real Time Corruptor Vanguard (RTCV)'s Windows Glitch Harvester can be used to corrupt video files safely and effectively. A tutorial here will be added soon.

=Audio Corruption=
Audio corruption is best done manually, however it often appears as a side effect of video corruption, such as with Audacity filters.

=Image Corruption=
[[File:Nuvotion mosh image distortion.png|thumb|right]]

Countless web and computer programs exist to perform image corruption. The aeformentioned Nuvotion suite can also easily perform live image corruption.

=ROM Corruption=
Using tools like [[Meteo]] to convert your video into a Gameboy Advance ROM, you can then plug it into Real Time Corruptor Vanguard (RTCV) or similar program to mess with it that way!

Earrape

2026-03-27T15:25:17Z

Admin: finish page

[[Category: Techniques]]
[[Category: Audio Techniques]]

[[Earrape]] is a term used for incredibly loud and distorted audio, often used to 'jump' the viewer with a sudden burst of noise. In [[tennis]], earrape is very common often just because editing styles tend to get very loud. There is less of an emphasis of being shocking, instead more towards the vibe of something like a metal or noise concert.

<youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtPn7UHy_XM</youtube>

Earrape has been used since the beginning of [[YouTube Poop]], with players such as Toadomos becoming known for their loud videos. It quickly found a place in tennis as well; With tennis' emphasis of building off of existing videos, layers of earrape would build on top of each other leading to entire videos being incredibly loud.

=Usage=
Earrape is usually done by applying a distortion or overdrive filter to audio and setting it to its maximum setting (usually a top-left graph in the visualizer). Just moving the audio all the way up is usually not enough, or may not produce the distortion usually associated with earrape.

==Audacity==
Add the Distortion effect, then set the clipping level to -100 and the drive to 100. The make-up gain can help make the distortion not as "loud" while still sounding blasted-out.

[[File:Earrape audacity.png]]

==Windows Movie Maker==
[[Windows Movie Maker]] does not have audio effects, and its volume options are very limited. Often the best option is to set the volume to max, render, then do it again until desired noise is reached.

==Vegas==
In [[Vegas]], apply the Distortion audio effect to your footage, then drag the graph to the top-left:

[[File:Earrape vegas.png]]

==Premiere==
In [[Premiere]], the easiest way to to this is with the "Infinite Distortion" distortion preset:

[[File:Earrape premiere.png]]

Similar results can also be done with the GuitarSuite plugin, which has its own set of Overdrive effects for similar sound.
