#etymologically speaking i guess. it's not anywhere near as contex-requiring as ''tintinlike''

i would honestly kill to know when the first minitourney &/or tintinlike(s) happened because i feel like their existence is so vital to the current format of the tourney scene
#i know tournaments themselves for abstract (collections of) concepts them predate even kfad#i.e. what a minitourney effectively is but i'm just thinking of when#within the mashup tourney scene the practice of making mashup tourney contestants & having them compete#without the musical track component or even a reward began#and if when it began lines up with when mashup tourney-formatted projects without the competition began#then that would be massive however i highly doubt there's a real connection there#knowing the dates on those things would better serve to track other broad trends within the community#my use of the term tintinlike is erroneous. man do i wish there were a better way to refer to tournament-formatted mashup projects without#bracket or even competition#like i don't know Precisely where the term blindfad comes from but it makes sense on its own as a word with meaning#etymologically speaking i guess. it's not anywhere near as contex-requiring as ''tintinlike''
