The '''Growing Tennis Chain''' of 2010 was a [[chain]] that got gradually longer as time went on.
The '''Growing Tennis Chain of 2010''' or the '''Growing Poop Tennis CHALLENGE''' was a [[tennis]] [[chain]] hosted by Pikalax1 starting on August 25, 2010 where the number of seconds of each round was the same as its round number. In a way, this makes it inherently a rudimentary chain version of [[Additive Time Tennis]].  


=Layout=
The match continued slow but steady for 27 rounds until around April of 2013, when then-[[staff]] {{AshcrementVII}} locked the original thread. <ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/4.html#post-4430102</ref> Two further "unofficial" rounds were created; one by {{GabrielPika}} in 2014 and another by {{aw8qn}} in 2022. {{aw8qn}}'s round 29 is where the match stands today, well short of the 15 minute goal originally proposed. There is a noticeably high ratio of tennis staff to non-staff for this chain; out of the 23 participants 10 of which (43%) were staff (or as high as 48% if {{TheFXExpert}} did not drop out).
The growing tennis chain worked like any other chain, however the round length of each video is equal to the number round it is (so round 10 is ten seconds, for example).


=Rounds=
The rules of the match according to Pikalax1 were as follows:
There are 29 rounds so far, with the final round being made by {{ClassicBirch}}.


<small>
"Each round can be no more than one second (30 frames) longer than the previous round.<br>
The amount of the previous round that gets rendered into the next round should be at least 75% (3/4). <br>
At least one new visual or audio source must be added in each round.  <br>
This match will end when we reach 15 minutes, or when we feel like cutting it off.  <br>
There is no limit to the number of people who can participate, but there are to be no lateral branches. <br>
Each new round must be listed as a response to the previous video.  <br>
The video must also be posted in the thread on [[YouChew]] (link above)."</small><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1Ugn3JApk</ref>
The match's order was relatively stable up until round 23 was released by Pikalax1 in July of 2011<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/3.html#post-3207282l</ref>. The initial player list afterward was listed as:
24. {{CaptainStringCheese}}<br>
25. SergeantBacon<br>
26. JackTron7000<br>
27. Ad4ptX<br>
28. {{IceSumo}}<br>
29. {{FXexpert}}<br>
30. Luioigi<br>
31. {{vel_17}}<br>
32. {{IceSumo}}<br>
However following many player retirements as well as computer troubles from {{CaptainStringCheese}}<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/71619-growing-poop-tennis-challenge/3.html#post-3838162</ref>, this order changed dramatically with only {{vel_17}} actually making their round, now moved to round 25.
