SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Poor Miss Pauling has been utterly overrun by wayward mercenary applications! We at Team Fortress Industries are pleased to announce a new contest for all of YOU original and creative people to thin the flock, prove YOUR worth to the battlefield and this company, and determine who amongst YOU is the best of the best*

This is a contest where you are encouraged to create, share, and fight to the death for the sake of your most prized character! Make art and writing for propaganda, tell us all about them, and face off against one another in a series of randomized polls narrowing down who will win the TF2 OC Contest of 2024!

A pinned post with all of the rules and the submission form for this contest will be following shortly. Be sure to follow this blog for more updates!

*(Not an actual indicator of who is the "best" -- this is meant to be a fun, low-stakes, community driven event.)

Nothin' much ever happens at their lives, except when- wait hold on

Long time no see HA, Man! I know, i know, i havent been keeping up with videos, BUT, i swear somethin' big will come from next one! Just- JUST LOOK AT ALL THE OTHER GUYS IN HERE!

Cherry's FINALLY here, and im frickin awful at explaining him but! He's a freak, he keeps dying and respawning, he should be a scout but got fired the moment he showed up in respawn looking like that, he lives around making videos about his daily life and meeting other freaks, gordon freeman personally hates him for ruining his life, Hes the captain? Leader? Of a team of freak somehow! happens when youre annoying but promise them a house

Keep an eye out at @/tf2occontest !!

Argentine soldier, the one who enrolls Cherry in the tournament belongs to my friend @monopururu

[elliotbizarre]

Vote Cyborg and he might finally gain the courage to confess to his crush!

[mg-dango]

One of the things I like about this fandom is that people have funny names for the ships (Red Oktoberfest, Helmet Party, etc.) But my chef is an aroace and she doesn´t feel attracted to anyone (tho sooooometimes I feel like shipping her with Miss Pauling), still… That doesn't mean I can't make ship names for the platonic relationships he has with his team, and a few ideas that came to my mind while procrastinating >:3

Burnt Rice (Pyro & Chef)

Self explanatory name lol

Knights 'n Ninjas (Demo & Chef)

I also thought on "Explosive Sake" or "Wasabi Bombs", but Idk why this one got my attention more

Main Course (Heavy & Chef)

Aaand for this one I had a hard time thinking on a ship name, honestly my logic behind this was just that in my mother language you also call a main course a "heavy dish", but If someone has better suggestions I'm all ears 👀

Another platonic ship names I thought but didn't draw were:

Fast Food (Scout & Chef)

Prescription meal (Medic & Chef)

American Roll (Soldier & Chef)

Chopstick helpers (Engie & Chef)

Kangaroo sashimi (Sniper & Chef)

Butterfly knives (Spy & Chef)

📭 Special Delivery 📦

featuring @meet-the-courier

Really grumpy guy meets really pensive guy.

They have a quiet cigarette break together and assist each other in pushing a ridiculously huge box into the house. Isn't this what friendship is all about?

This is his very first interaction with anyone but The Purple One, a day after signing his contract. So far he is all alone. Neither Team has moved into the village yet and he hasn't anything to fight with but his rusty fishing utensils.

And of course the laughably large box is preparation for the war and contains the weapons he will have to use. And a present?..

[tf2occontest]

“Okay team, listen up:

You’re all going to be fighting each other to the death, and whoever wins gets to start their new lifelong career under contract with Team Fortress Industries!

So. Here are the rules.” - P

----------------------------------------

RULES FOR SUBMISSION:

Your character must be original and be directly related to TF2. 

This can be any kind of OC: Class OCs, tenth class OCs, Machine/robot OCs, Team Fortress Classic OCs, OCs who work outside of TFI (such as assistants to Merasmus or Saxton Hale), YLW/GRN OCs, Teufort citizen/civilian OCs, anything—as long as they are directly related to TF2 and are yours !!!! If you have concerns about this, please dm or send an ask to this account BEFORE submitting your character !!!!

2. !!!! ONE OC PER PERSON !!!!

If you are submitting an original tenth class OC, you are allowed to submit a RED and BLU variant in one bundle. This is the ONLY bundling that is allowed.

Any posts from this blog involving your OC will follow this system of tags: #TF2OcContest2024, #[your tumblr username], #the [class name], & #[character name] (if applicable)

3. You are still allowed to submit an OC even if you’ve never posted them anywhere before. Make an oc for the contest if you want!

An image representing your character and a description of your character are REQUIRED upon submission. Details on what is permitted for each of these are included in the submission form below.

4. Propaganda is allowed and ENCOURAGED, even for others’ OCs!

If you make propaganda including other OCs, you are required to have the creator’s explicit permission before posting. Joking, lighthearted ‘smear campaign’ type propaganda is fine, but again—both parties must consent to this and no real harm should come from it. 

Please post any propaganda of your OC under the #TF2OcContest2024 tag.

5. You are not required to make new art. If you participated in the previous OC Tourney hosted by @/tf2shipswag, you are allowed to reuse any old art you made for that, including your half of the VS cards! 

6. AI GENERATED IMAGES FOR SUBMISSIONS AND PROPAGANDA ARE STRICTLY PROHIBITED. YOU WILL BE BANNED.

“You will be considered a traitor to the Mann vs Machine cause and shot on sight. There are plenty of other ways to make images that don’t require drawing!” - P

--------------------------------------------

RULES FOR PARTICIPATION:

There will be NO TEAM-UPS for organization’s sake. Any ties will be broken with a coin-flip and a quick shot to the head by Miss Pauling—so aim to win.

“Sooo… Don’t try any funny business! We’ve only got enough room in the budget for one person.” - P

2. You will not be able to make requests for match-ups. Contestants will be paired up randomly each round.

3. Please be respectful about others' OCs. Verified claims of harassment will result in disqualification and/or being blocked from the contest account.

“You’ll also be shot for this, just so we’re clear. Can’t leave any loose ends!” - P

4. You are allowed to submit propaganda directly to this blog if you do not want to post it on your own account!

5. Deadlines will be strict.  Keep an eye on when dates for things are posted.*

“I’m looking to hire someone punctual and professional, please!” - P

*The contest hosts reserve the right to make changes to deadlines, rules, and so forth but it is unlikely to happen. If it does an official statement will be made!

6. THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE: PLEASE have fun with this.  Everybody needs to be a good sport and remember this in no way reflects how people view your work, ideas and character.  In our hearts, you’re all winners.  

!!!! What do you get for winning? !!!!

You’ll get fanart of your winning character! Art will be by @/sicc-nasti, @/mickmundane, and @/chattycattycal on tumblr PLEASE keep in mind these are NOT requests, just gift fanart!

“You get to live! And bragging rights, of course. Oh—and the job contract. I think someone could also make a celebratory cake? Don’t hold me to that last part, though.” - P

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE SEND IN AN ASK!

🫧 Ned 🐟 34 🦭 Norwegian 🌊

Ned, formerly Frode but renamed after receiving his class title, is a middle-young trans man with black hair and brown eyes. Before The Incident he lived a quiet yet laborious life in a village called Selbyen, catching and selling fish in his own little shop (only 8kr per kilogram, what a steal!).

Until the quaint village was bought up to let some DUMMIES play glorified goreified catch in the streets of what he once called home — and income. Long after everyone else had been kicked out, he too was asked to move, but he remained resilient, oftentimes chaining himself to the buildings and standing his ground with his trusty harpoon. His willingness to harm and unwillingness to leave left the Mann Co. employees no choice but to offer him a contract to work for instead of against them.

Since then he's been, partially begrudgingly, providing the BLU team with fresh fiskesmørbrød (fish sandwiches), as well as his services in trapping opponents and giving courses on seal feeding and care.

He stays mainly for the money that he gets to send to the family and friends that had to leave the village. However he often catches himself enjoying the company of the weird intruders. Having only ever known the village, hearing stories of the big wide world and the teams past travels calms him and keeps tension and resentment from building. Additionally he gets to learn all about tactical weapon usage, so it's a win-win situation under dire circumstances.

TLDR; Mann Co. buys village grounds, man deranged enough to stay in village, now he gets paid to be deranged.
