The Homestuck Shipping World Cup was a summer-long shipping challenge inspired by the 2012 Homestuck Shipping Olympics.

Overview

Fans form teams around their favorite ships and compete in challenges based around prompts to show off just how awesome their ship is. Everything from fanfiction and fanart to games, recipes, graphic design, cosplay and voice acting are welcome, so long as it fits the challenge and is created new for the HSWC. Through fanworks, participants gain points for their teams, and teams are ranked based on how many points they accumulate. But in the HSWC, all ships are welcome and the points don't really matter! The focus of the event is the celebration of shipping and the creation of new fanworks.[1]

End of HSWC

Intents for a 2015 round seemed to be in consideration with a call for moderators on the announcement blog, but did not discuss any followup.[2] In 2015, a similar event, the Sports Anime Shipping Olympics, began.
