'''{{system128}} vs. {{mrdoognoog}}''' | '''{{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. | |||
