3/5 of these ones are cash money folks, which is fun

fun fact! despite having been in five tournaments together since the grudge match in 6, dantoinette and icee have never actually had just a normal match

firstly, holy shit dani lost this championship match so badly, this honestly isn't much better than she did against order who had the powers of a god (order was one stock down with about 20% damage, compared to icee being one stock down with 60% damage)

the first tournament they were both in bracket for was nine, where icee tanked hard at the beginning and so they never fought. similarly they were both in the reboot where icee got seventh and again they didn't fight. they did fight in 11, in round one and grand finals, both of which were 2-0s, however 11 was a doubles tournament. the next time they fought was in 20, which was another 2-0 in dantoinette's favour, but that one had the instadrop spirits. 27 was the squad strike tournament and another one they didn't fight in because team cash money got seventh

so dani absolutely can beat icee and has done so several times in the past, just never in a regular match with no extra rules

Lemon did not like Spriteman. He was annoying, and overbearing, and stupid. The only thing she liked less was him being gone.

Hey, I really want to watch CPU kerfuffle, is there a document that sums up the first 10 episodes so I can start at 11 and know everything important?

Funny enough, there actually is! Around the time of 10, I created a lore document that I would try to update with each Kerfuffle. I kinda stopped doing it around 11, which is the magic number for ya. However it IS 50 pages long (and a lot of the information is out of date). Ever since then, a wiki has been created which does a good job of covering many things, although since a LOT of characters return (some with a lot of Spoilers attached to them)

Here's the lore document and here's the wiki, but for the sake of brevity, I'll include a "brief" synopsis of Everything Important From Season 1 of CPUKerfuffle You Need To Know About So You Can Start On CPUKerfuffle #11 (under the cut)

So here's the Season 1 Synopsis. CPU Kerfuffle is a tournament series featuring Level 9 CPU's with their own names and distinct characters (this characterization is ramped up in Season 2 but one step at a time). Each tournament is a double-elimination bracket of eight fighters, and the winner of the tournament goes 1 on 1 against the current Champion of CPU Kerfuffle. The Champion is allowed to slightly alter the rules of the tournament to fit their style (for instance, when ICEE was Champion, he made Freezies appear occasionally) In the beginning, it was run by me in-universe and was a largely informal affair.

In terms of the Important Story Events, there aren't too many in Season 1, so before we cover those, let's introduce some character that might be important later.

-Squid Jenny: A disciple of the god Iggy Koopa. In her first tournament, she was presented as a FIERCELY loyal subject before actually briefly defecting from Iggy while also changing her name and gender presentation. She would later go on to return as a follower of Iggy, but with a new name and a new sense of personal agency. She says Trans Rights, obviously.

-Hamburger Helper: A Red Ridley who was the first Champion and held his reign as Champion for quite some time. Is married to a Ganondorf named Dadandorf and they share a son named Jimbo, who becomes Dark Jimbo out of teenage rebellion.

-Florida Man: A white coat Joker hailing from Florida, and a being of all the chaos that entails. He doesn't do much in Season 1, but keep an eye out for him in Season 2.

-Home MD: A doctor who wishes to find the cure for losing. Over the course of the series, he loses and regains his medical license.

-Spriteman/Perfect Spriteman: Spriteman is Just a Guy Who Really Loves Him Some Sprite! He won't stop talking about his favorite citrus soda! But....what happens when his obsession goes too far? He turns into a Piranha Plant, that's what.

-Patch-Man & Hoedown: Patch-Man is the owner of a large farm known as "Patch Farms", which is a place of bountiful harvest, although there have been some very intriguing farming techniques used there, such as creating a daughter that is also a gijinka of Corn itself named Corn on the Cob. He's married to Hoedown, who is secretly a member of the pirate crew known as the Red Kraken. Within Season 1, Hoedown is the only member of the Red Kraken in CPUK

-Captain Valentine: Just an overall cool dude and the face of the tournament throughout Season 1

-The Grunk: A Big Boy who can get pretty angry. He specifically joined the Kerfuffle after Hamburger Helper dissed his Tinder profile.

-Dantoinette: More accustomed to Soul Calibur, Dantoinette came over to CPU Kerfuffle to see how the other side played. She is.....very good.

There are more, but I want to keep this at least somewhat brief. So in terms of the relevant lore, here is the series of events that take place:

After a few tournaments of Hamburger Helper keeping hold as Reigning Champion, Iggy sends Jenny to see if Hamburger Helper is up to something. And it appeared he was, as he was building a strange machine.

Soon after, a fighter appears that simply goes by the name of "Crimson". And once he joins, an incredibly strange tournament takes place that includes splitting and converging of universes. The Guy from Spy Kids 3-D is there. There's a lot of confusion (and a lot of it gets kinda retconned? Only so much you can do when you improvise things lol), but it's discovered that Crimson is a sort of hivemind demon that can control other people at will while also holding some power over the different dimensions, and it's clear that Hamburger Helper is working for the Crimson.

On the ninth CPU Kerfuffle, we approach a Season Finale, preparing for things with a set of round robin preliminary rounds. And those are eventful. Home MD loses his doctorate from how badly he's beaten, Captain Valentine becomes possessed by the Crimson, and The Grunk is actually found DEAD, killed by the Crimson.

After this tournament, there is a hiatus. In-universe, I decided that having all this negative PR was way too much to handle, leading to a lack of tournaments and leaving the battlefield in an almost Mad-Max-Style chaos for months. Amidst the Chaos, the fighters all create four factions, or "Teams", which I'll talk about later.

At the end of this haitus, Iggy himself steps down from the heavens and uses an enormous amount of his power to greatly weaken the Crimson, ridding most of its existence, but still unable to turn Captain Valentine back. In light of coming back AND saving the world a little bit, Iggy becomes the new owner of CPU Kerfuffle, bringing back my friends and I simply as commentators in-universe. Squid Jenny becomes a field reporter to help the tournament run and to help the audience see the discussions happening between fighters. Another person working for the tournament rather than fighting anymore is Home MD, whose doctorate is restored after he manages to revive The Grunk from the dead.

This leads to the tournament titled "#Reboot". There isn't much that happens in this tournament in terms of lore, but Dantoinette becomes the Champion, which leads into Episode 11, which is where you'll be beginning. At that point in time, there are 8 different teams, which will be explained at the start of CPUK11.

Have fun!

This is an open invitation to talk about your blorbos. I don't have any specific questions, just tell me whatever you wanna!

oh well thank you anon! this is so open ended and now i don't really know what to say but i suppose i will ramble about one of my favourite characters from cpuk, dantoinette

so first i should actually explain how cpuk works in order for any of what i'm about to say to make sense. tl;dr it is a smash bros cpu tournament with lore, characters are represented by the different smash bros fighters and each episode is typically an eight person double-elimination tournament. the whole thing is done via smash bros matches and improvised dialogue between characters, with the actual people involved commentating the matches and voicing the characters

dantoinette first showed up in cpuk6 with the backstory that she was from an alternate universe where the tournaments took place in soul calibur and she came to the universe of cpuk to prove that soul calibur is better or something like that, i don't remember the exact details she proceeded to sweep the tournament before losing the championship match to a guy dressed as the icee mascot, who she still holds a grudge against to this day, despite having beaten him multiple times since.

she showed up again in 9 and the reboot (technically 10) where she got first both times. because of this, she was champion for 11 and chose to make it a doubles tournament, teaming up with captain crimson (for context, this character named captain valentine lost a bet to season one's villain, crimson, and got possessed, and after the rest of crimson was destroyed, the last bit remained possessing captain valentine) and managed to not only win them the tournament, but also remove the last bit of the crimson from captain valentine purely by getting stray hits on her own teammate. then. instead of sticking around to fight valentine for the title of reigning champion, she left and let him fight her pet rat, johannsen. the rat won.

dani then went back to her own universe for a while, until cpuk20, because she was called in to help fight season two's villain, an evil mad scientist named doctor order trying to steal the powers of the goddess of time, chartreuse. she again won the tournament but again lost the championship match. although this time her opponent was the doctor who had gotten the time goddess's powers and had gone back in time from the next day in an attempt to stop the others from going through with their attack on her lab. after the mad scientist was defeated, dani once again went back to her own dimension, feeling bad about her loss even though doctor order had won a 7v1 and there was no way she could have ever won on her own

recently she's shown up again and hasn't done that much lore-wise but she is technically reigning champion at the moment. she's also currently having a bit of a crisis regarding her whole Not Losing thing and having a bad time with the current arc villain. i'm not going to go into the nccts because those are a whole can of worms and are non canon so that's her whole story so far

(when i say she doesn't lose, i mean she Does Not lose. she has the best record out of anyone that isn't a perfect 100% win ratio and the only people with perfect records are i believe a literal god, nagito komaeda (erased from existence,) and jon arbuckle. it doesn't say in the image but she also got 1st in 26. and 28)
