#I originally was gonna make the polls last only a day but I'm glad I set it for a week instead

[couldbebetterforsure]

We have a little less than three days until those Jack Jeanne favorite role polls I put up are closed but let's do a little progress report on results so far! I won't go into spoilers on what roles are winning because I want you guys to see for yourself when you vote/wait for the results, but let's see!

For Kisa, it's a race between two roles to get to the top right now and I'm surprised by how dumb I was not to consider one of those roles to be a fan favorite like DUH of course that one would be popular too!

For Suzu, it's surprisingly much closer than I was expecting. At one point we had a four way tie going on! I'm happy because like I said all of Suzu's roles are really enjoyable so I like seeing how close this poll is.

For Sou, while very much skewing in the direction I expected, I am seeing a bit more support for a couple other roles than I thought there would be!

For Mitsuki, it is VERY much as lopsided as I expected it to be! But there's one vote I am soooooo curious about the voter's reasoning because it was an unexpected one!

For Fumi, it's a very close race between the two roles I expected and I am genuinely not sure which one will come out on top. One day it's one role the other day it's the other role and so on and so forth.

For Kai, it's another case of it leaning in the direction I expected it to go but I am once again seeing more support for certain other roles than I anticipated!

For Neji, yup that's pretty much how I expected the results to be leaning! But it's interesting in that Neji's poll is the only one other than Otori's that has at least one vote for every choice going on.

For Otori, like I said his I am most curious about and most unsure what direction the voting will go. But it's another close race between one role I expected and the other that I didn't expect but am now shaking my head over not considering the popularity of.

What do you think of the first round results? Any predictions on what the #1 will wind up being based on it?

-✨️

Oh, number one is without a doubt going to be either Stuck Inside or Terrible Things. I was wrong with my guesses last time because there were so many huge bangers on the list but with a tournament half-composed of tiny artists no one's heard before, it wouldn't surprise me to see an undefeatable popularity sweep

That being said I actually have NO CLUE what any of the other rounds are going to look like!!! I didn't think some of these songs would be getting past round 1 but the support they got really surprised me! Graveyard Shift in particular was at the bottom of the bracket in terms of views and nominations and that SWEPT (though I'm hoping people who continue to support that song perhaps stop by for some others as well!)

There were DEFINITELY quite a few that surprised me, so let me go through the list real quick!

Bunny Boy winning the first poll was actually a huge surprise. I kind of fell in love with Let Me In so I didn't pay much attention to the other two at first, but a majority of the comments LOVED Bunny Boy and it was really fun to see that outpouring of support!

Pictures VS. Ruin was a surprise to me mostly because I figured Kyle Allen's reputation would give that song a boost. I loved both of these songs so much so I was on the edge of my seat to see if Ruin could pull through!

FIVE NIGHTS ACTUALLY MADE IT PAST ROUND 1 I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT AT ALL with how much Close To Home also got beat, I wasn't expecting a rap song like the style FabvL does to get very far. But it's SUCH A BANGER I was so sure it would die (I feel bad for Human Shaped Grave though. I didn't realize until it was too late that the view count kind of put it into a weird spot next to two way more popular artists 😔 that's my bad)

Behind the Mask and This Is The Last Night were actually tied for a few days and I would have been SO happy if they both went through but Alas

LOVELY THINGS. IM SO SORRY. IM SO SORRY I DID THAT TO YOU BUT NO ONE ELSE STOOD A CHANCE AGAINST THE BEAST THAT IS STUCK INSIDE. YOU WERE THE ONLY HOPE TO KILL IT BEFORE IT DECIMATED THE COMPETITION not that I'd be upset if it won, it's a banger

Ruined Lullaby you put up a good fight 😔 the absolute bop that is the bridge could not save it but I'm glad it got as far as it did

I DID NOT THINK BLOOD RUNS THICKER WOULD WIN IM GONNA BE HONEST. The songs that move on in these tournaments usually have a particular style and this was not it but honestly I'm so glad it pulled through

I'm a little bummed You're Coming With Us didn't make it, solely cause I'm a sucker for vocaloid (shoutout to vocacircus for making constant bangers) but What Remains Of Me was SOOOO GOOD this one was HARD but I'm a vocaloid girlie at heart. It's okay YCWU I still love you

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH TO THE PERSON WHO ADVOCATED FOR TILT-A-WHIRL I WOULD HAVE BEEN SO SAD IF IT LOST ROUND 1 HOLY SHIT. YOU REALLY PULLED THROUGH no shade to FYSTBOL but it is first and foremost a silly meme song and Tilt-A-Whirl had so much passion in it 🥺

I can't say anything about Render Me Alive cause I haven't listened to it yet but I hope you guys liked it 👍

In My Eyes Now was winning the whole week so it was actually a HUGE shock to see What Lurks In Shadows pull through last minute. I'm not too upset about a Nightcove loss here since there's like 6 others on this side of the bracket but holy shit where did you all come from (thank you for voting I love you)

I did NOT think Mechanized And Alive would be winning for most of the week. I thought for sure the delivery on the second verse would harm it but no!!! Yall were surprisingly adamant about that one!!!

CHRONICLES OF BONNIE AND TREAT YOU RIGHT WERE CONSTANTLY A PERFECT 50/50 I WAS SO SCARED as much as I still have a grudge against scraton for making the original tournament so hard to organize, I did have to admit COB was surpsingly good and I'm glad it's moving on 💜

I KILLED COME PLAY. I FEEL SO GUILTY ABOUT IT TBH IM SO SORRY IT GOT PUT UP AGAINST A BEAST 41% against an APAngryPiggy song is not bad though!!! That's something to be proud of!!!

I was NOT expecting an absolutely DEVASTATING Bad Rabbit sweep for 5 days (IT WAS LIKE 85% IN A THREE WAY POLL!!!!) And I was even MORE not expecting Afton's Empire to ACTUALLY pull through this one was STRESSFUL to watch holy shit

Rip Like A Disguise 😔 you were never going to make it but at least I can say that I tried

I WAS NOT EXPECTING BURY ME IN METAL TO SWEEP. I THOUGHT I KILLED IT BY CONVINCING PEOPLE TO NOMINATE IT AND BOOSTING ITS POSITION IN THE RANKINGS. I DID NOT THINK IT WOULD WIN. HOLY SHIT

I knew the Big One of the right half being Terrible Things / Ballad Of The Walking Machines / The Mimic Song would be extremely difficult to vote for and I did debate it with my sister for a solid 15 minutes. Terrible Things not only winning, but winning by that much was NOT something I thought would happen. Oh my god. That was wild

I honestly thought Endless Nights being a homage to a bunch of different eras of fnaf music would push it farther tbh!! It's really cool! Not upset over another Tynado W tho (and if anyone knows the names of all the artists/songs referenced in Endless Nights, I'd really love a list! I only caught about half)

I'm going to be entirely honest here. When I saw Take Me Home, A Silicon Soul, and Hand And Eye put together, I thought it was going to be an EASY win for Take Me Home. I'm not a fan of the other two (didn't even finish listening to Hand And Eye), but it was really cool seeing the surprising amount of love that one got! Maybe I'll have to give it another shot

I'm SO sorry to Run but I couldn't let Far Too Long die here without a fight. It's such an icon and it's a banger but Run was SO FUN I was actually really having a hard time voting on this one

Okay. So Five Unholy Nights was near the BOTTOM of the list. It only got nominated once and had one of the least amount of views from ANY of the songs. So when I listened to it the first time and instantly fell in love, I was SO scared. It's one of the least popular ones here in terms of view count and I didn't want it to die!!!!! Apparently I didn't need to worry. Holy shit you guys

I think that's everything I have thoughts on? Sorry I accidentally used your ask as my post about the music for this round you just asked for my opinions and thoughts and I happen to have a lot of those 💜 can't wait to see how round 2 goes!!!!! I'll get it set up asap!
