It's pretty clear to me that it's a kind of general that takes it's time and would work very well for a slow board, but /vt/ is one of the fatstest, its goes from page 1 to fucking 10 in 40 minutes some days, depending on the drama.

Ah, /vtwbg/. I still miss it, some of the most fun I've had on 4chan was there.
I've been working on a little online world simulation game that I'd like to have simulate some form of Vitubia one day. It'll be hosted on www.vt-geimu.boo . There's nothing there atm, though you can signup an account if you want.
I'm still brainstorming it a bit, but I think it would probably be more sandbox/simulation oriented than competitive. Something like multiplayer persistent dwarf fortress, but country-level, maybe.

It was interesting at first and I thought it could sustain as a mini update of sorts where events on the board or in vtubers as a whole become events in this world. But when I last inquired on how they would represent something, I think that instance where mikecat is poached by vshojo, they are not interested and proceeded with their own lorefaggotry.

as with anything homebrew on 4chan, i could already foresee people getting tangled up with their differing interpretations
i could even see a glimpse of it back then with how people were defining this "chuuba energy" or something, which to me was kind of over the top since i liked having a more grounded setting
rather than asserting by engaging more (and wasting energy) i just said fuck it, its too much work to bother, hoping some other chumbie just picked up the slack

Yeah, in the end it came down to people with different visions for the project failing to coexist. I thought for a while before it really ended that this was kind of bound to happen if everyone tried to adhere to a single canon. But also, if there's no central canon it seems harder to get invested. Tricky business.

/vnug/ gets more traffic nowadays since some former /corpo/ vtubers joined V&U although the thread hasn’t been the nicest place due to occasional drama and Liora’s ongoing menhera arc
They do! Not a grim reaper though but instead a ghost (“ghost demon” since everyone in gen 4’s some kinda demon) who’d lost her memory. She mostly streams at EU hours so I can only watch her live in the weekends but she’s my favorite in gen 4. I like her creative writing (she wrote the poem-lore for the whole gen) and aura of elegance!

Yeah, I've been privvy to that, Liora and Serafi have been the two vnugs I've managed to continue keeping up with. Both white-haired and with a tendency for the menhera, I might have a type besides pink-haired reapers. Ganbare Liora.

Woa, her debut was just 5 days ago, I'll try adding her to my rotation. Her debut is really good so far, funny and creative, with that nice animation at the start. Cool voice too.

Well I wanted to make a dum creepypasta that Hope was supposed to be a duo but IRyS' partner perished mid-production.
Intentionally made the trailhead lore ambiguous. Throw it to the wind and see what comes out of it.
A one time experiment.
I did not expect it to haunt /vt/

Aight, here it is, all the rentry and docs as pdfs, and also all the catboxed files. Should be able to open it with winzip if you put both of those in one folder.
This doesn't include the rentries only linked inside another rentry though, might do another pass for those at some point.

How did you manage this?
The option gets greyed out when I use Ark (Linux)

Oh, I used Winrar actually, just gotta set a maximum size under split volumes. I'm sure the linux equivalents have something like this as well.

i left because i felt like my inclusion would only make things worse, but i guess it was going that way regardless. nice to see you guys are still around, though.

you didn't make it worse, you made the same msitake as many of us and care too much about a grand canon instead of just have people let have fun fucking around
the fact many learned that lesson is why i think we could try again

i didn't see how the thread died out, i can't say anything about what you guys should have done or not, but i know that it wouldn't be as fun for me without some sense of continuity, and that there were at least a few others who seems to have the same mindset. /wg/ is a good thread with a lot of impressive content from a few brilliant anons, and maybe a few pieces of shit from a few less than brilliant anons. no matter the state of /vtwbg/ or /lore/ or whatever you want to call it, that thread will always be around, and if you establish a good enough relationship with them, they might be willing to have you all in there. the big problem that i came across was that it was hard to establish the kind of cooperation and communication needed to have a consistent setting with everyone, and that we would frequently clash and let petty things get in the way of writing, or working together. it doesn't help that i'm a terrible speaker. i think what you guys were able to make was incredible, and fun, but that at this point, the good memories are all you'll ever really have of how things were. you can never go back. you are free to go forward. it's your choice to make.

Is this like that thing where all the boards joined a Minecraft server? I remember that it was doing really well until one of the boards started invading everyone else.

It's not, but I'm curious about whatever you're talking about, sounds like an entertaining mess.

/ybc/ is just /vt/, not a bunch of boards.

the average /vt/ poster nowadays doesnt want to put effort into contributing to a thread, they just grab a bunch of screenshots from out of context Tweets to make a thread or post them on hlg to start shit up.
the only reason VTL is alive is because its the only other alternative to the 4cc, that one is dead because half the boards are on autopilot teams and the other half havent been updated in a decade.

Based on how /v/ is, if /vtg/ existed /vt/ would be an unmoderated hellhole (I mean even more than now), so I wouldn't worry about rulefags too much.
