This is a bracket made with rejected submissions. Here they're legit.

Explanations here

Quarterfinals 4

Explanations underneath

Original propaganda for Perry :

“The Siberian iris is known as Perry’s Blue iris.”

"Perry could be the short for Periwinkle"

Original propaganda for Yuri :

"Yuri means Lily. Wouldn't it be so funny ?"

Yuri's a word used to describe manga/anime centred around WLW romance

White lilies are a symbol of the genre

[sexiestpodcastcharacter]

any plans for the John from Malevolent? we do love a yellow king

No one from Malevolent was submitted. I might do a bonus round of the color-coded eye-symbolism protagonists (Cecil Night Vale, Jon Magnus Archives, Nikignik Hallowoods, John/Arthur Malevolent) but I would need someone else to provide a description of him/them because I haven't listened to Malevolent myself.

Writing Patterns Tag #1

@aziz-reads tagged me for this, thanks!

n I'm gonna tag @oh-no-another-idea, @fields-of-ink, @zmwrites if you wanna!!

Rules: List the first line(s) from your last 10 WIPs/fics and see if there is a pattern.

Just from the last ten scenes we've picked at! I guess!

The goblin slipped out of the camp by the old ways, through the rotted walls of the last empty house before the forest. (Just A Little Razmatazz; Into the Library)

Lathlaeril walked into the temple still covered in the dust of the road and carried his bag. (Lathlaeril & Zephyr; The Return)

Halliel hurried along the street as fast as she could in her heels, wings tight to her back so she didn't throw herself off balance. (Shapeshifter WIP; Halliel Looks for Syn)

Jasper found Llinos sitting on the stool beside the door. (Mercenary Mages; Home Sweet Home)

Alepir Holt is quiet these days. (Alepir Holt; Fin Meets Kane)

Aria was waiting for Tem in the common area of the tavern the next morning, a bag over her shoulder. (Hunter's Mark; Setting Off)

"You don't mind, do you?" (Dumb of Ass, Snake of Tits; Choice)

Syn grabbed the bag from their [car] and ducked back out. (Shapeshifter WIP; Little Rat Hands)

Nelaeryn considered them, head tilted, face carefully - not blank, exactly, but... calculating. (Dumb of Ass, Snake of Tits; He Has Regrets)

Selene swept her sword through the air in front of her and smirked at her opponent as they circled each other. (Soul of the Party)

[vocaloid-song-showdown]

hello again!

the songs on the bracket have been finalized and i'm working on the bracket right now!

originally my plan was to put songs against each other by both the time they came out and their popularity to give lesser known songs a chance against some of the super notable classics, but i've been seeing a post go around about matchups that are final round worthy happening round one. while i don't think it's anything worthy of any major (or minor) backlash, i do have to agree that having more challenging matchups so early on can lead to a bit of an anticlimactic ending

the way the bracket is set up now, there's no way to avoid several major matchups so early on (ex :: rolling girl vs. matryoshka or world is mine vs. triple baka)

as much as i want to give songs that might not be as well known a chance (especially considering some only got in w one nomination via a random number generator), i also don't want some of what i at least consider to be the most well known songs to be disqualified round one. those songs are popular and well loved for a reason and i genuinely think they should also have a chance to make it to the end. round two at the very very least

i'll make a bracket for each possibility so it can go up when the pool closes, so please vote for whichever one you think would be the most fun !

also unrelated to this poll, i realize kinda forgot to make a post responding to the bracket song list one ?? since it ended showed up as a tie but wasn't really one after factoring in a missclick vote, the last songs were chosen via a random number generator ^^

there were some nominated but ultimately unpicked songs that i felt were too notable and influential to go unmentioned though??? so there's also a little hand picked honorable mentions bracket (it's very small !! it only has 8 songs total on it) :D

i will admit that some songs on it are more biased than others, but w the exception of one they all have at least 5 million views (counting unofficial reprints). i did try and make sure they're all at least somewhat notable (or were when they came out) in one way or another. so it's a little compromise in a way ^^

Honorable Mention Awards

For rounds that were particularly exciting or noteworthy and kept us all on our toes!

The DeKappel Award for Patronage of the Arts goes to: Yuri Vedenen and Ulla Morozova, for having fanart of their bracket round! by @itsnotunfinisheditsmystyle​

The CPR Award goes to: Mal Oretsev, for coming back to life and pulling into the lead in the last 20 minutes of the poll. Congratulations on an extremely successful eleventh-hour turnaround! His prize will be an all-expense-paid trip on the Volkvolny and a fancy new coat

The Sankt Nikolai, Patron Saint of Lost Causes, Award goes to: Oncat, for almost??? beating??? Nikolai???? You may not have made it into the show, Oncat, but you clearly made it into our hearts! Her prize will be, as previously stated, an honorary position as minister in Ravka’s new government

The Horseshoes and Hand-Grenades Award goes to: David Kostyk, who lost to Zoya by exactly one vote. His prize will be a generous four entire horseshoes and one single hand-grenade to be used at his discretion. This poll does not accept liability for any subsequent damages to Little Palace property in the name of science

The Fold Endowment Fund Award for Living Rent Free in People’s Minds goes to: Aleksander Morozova himself, for inciting so much ire in people previously uninterested in this bracket that said poll received significantly more votes than any other—including about 500+ people who voted in only that poll and not the other semifinal running concurrently. His prize is the smug knowledge that numerically, he still received a greater number of votes in the semifinal round than either Genya or Nikolai (by approximately double). He will also receive a handful of sand from the Fold, to represent the lack of grass being touched

Thank you to all the Ravkans-and-friends for battling it out this week! May Ravka now find peace away from brackets and puns!

Results of the best KKJ song bracket!!!

Congrats to Mamasé for being the best KKJ song! Also not pictured here, but Meiden van de brandweer gets a honorary mention for coming 4th.

Some fun stats:

Lollypopland, Beroemd and Niet-verjaardagsfeest had the biggest increase when compared to the full K3 bracket, Lollypopland was originally ranked 24th but managed to become 9th! Beroemd was ranked 21st and came 8th and Niet-verjaardagsfeest was ranked 28th but came 18th!

The biggest losers are Eya Hoya! and Willem Alexander, both losing 14 spots in the ranking

When looking at the albums, Eyo was the most popular, the average rank is 20.33, the next album is Mamasé (24.67) and then at a distance Engeltjes (32.92), Loko Le (35.69) and Alice in Wonderland (36.60). (The two singles without an album are K3 Loves you at place 20 and K3 kan het! at place 31.)

Full ranking below the cut! Though because of Tumblr lists it doesn't show ties, so it's only fully accurate until the 27th spot. (If anyone wants the full data feel free to message me)

So next is the HKM bracket, per popular demand it's going to be a 64 song bracket starting with a group stage that I will probably put up early next week so stay posted!

And that was it for the KKJ bracket, thanks everyone for voting and reblogging, it was a lot of fun to read your opinions and sometimes even song analyses! Hope to see you back for the HKM bracket!

The time has come... for the Limited Life Predicted Winner's Bracket!

(It's like the mcytblr sexyman bracket, but for actually trying to predict the final winner of Limited Life... more or less.)

Hi everyone!! For the start of this lovely new Life Season, I thought it'd be fun to run a little bracket here on Trafficblr!

The purpose is to "accurately" predict the final champion of the series, but based on the nominations I get, there may be a chaos/honorary mentions bracket as well!

Here's the form to nominate your winner!

I'll leave the form open until next weekish, at which point I'll make the bracket and start the polls!

Cheers, everyone!

(Master Post in the works o7)

[sleepyhead-poll]

SUBMISSIONS FOR THE LOSER'S BRACKET ARE OPEN!

Welcome to the Loser's Bracket submissions! If you don't know how it works, here's a rundown:

For about a week, I will have nominations open for the Loser's Bracket. Nominate as many characters as you want who were in the tournament but have lost, but do not nominate someone more than once or someone who wasn't in the main tournament. (All contestants who lost prior to the semifinals have a shot to be nominated.)

After the Loser's Bracket nominations have been recorded, I will take the top 16 most nominated characters and begin the Loser's Bracket, which will last 4 rounds. Each round will last only a day, unlike the main tournament, where each round lasted a week.

The winner of the Loser's Bracket will have an honorary place on the podium and be mentioned in the finals winners post.

All propaganda for the Loser's Bracket will be unique, so feel free to write more propaganda on why you think they deserve this second chance.

I will stop taking nominations the day that the semifinals poll is over, as I want to start the Loser's Bracket the day the finals go up.

I will take nominations through the ask box! Send the name of your character & any propaganda on why you think they should have won.

Under the cut is a list of ALL THE LOSERS thus far and WHICH ROUND THEY LOST IN. Feel free to scroll through it to refresh yourself on anyone you want to nominate. (I hope I spelled everyone's name right because that was a lot to type and I'm not doing that again lmao)

Your turn - for the ST ask game, #17 and #2! 💫

Thank you for your ask!

17. Favourite fashion look? 👙

I think I already answered this one but I will put it here again so we can stare at her together.

2. Your least favourite episode? 💔

Well, this is awkward if your url is a reference - but it's definitely Turnabout Intruder!

I wrote this post explaining my feelings about it:

You can also look through the #turnabout intruder tag on my blog to look at other people's posts I reblogged with commentary (and hate. I am first and foremost a huge hater).

Also Elaan of Troyius. Yikes on bikes.

For TNG: Code of Honor is the basic answer, but it does really suck lmao. Angel One and The Outcast get honorary mentions for trying to be progressive and adress societal issues but ending up with just kind of awkward metaphors that have weird implications if you think about them. The attempt was here, I guess.

Honestly, Star Trek has a lot of bad episodes. I'm not going to name all of them. Maybe one day!

[ocd-character-polls]

Botanic Tournament : Honorary Mentions !

Explanations here

Round 1 Part 4 Poll 1

My bad, I got confused : image updated

Explanations underneath

Quick reminder that this bracket is about rejected submissions

Original propaganda for Perry :

“ The Siberian iris is known as Perry’s Blue iris.”

"Perry could be the short for Periwinkle"

Original propaganda for Findus :

"...Findus is a brand of green peas. This makes it plant-related, doesn't it?"

[sexiestpodcastcharacter]

I feel like I probably got a little defensive and I know I was longwinded when answering asks this morning so to be clear, I am open to having something like a two-character-per-world and four-character-per-podcast dual limit next year, but for that to work I will need more submissions!

[best-kirby-character-tournament]

Bonus Poll! ^-^

Stuck in the mirror world hyperfixation, so it's time for Dark Meta Knight to shine!

A poll similar to the Meta Knight, Kirby, Bandana Waddle Dee, Magolor, Marx, King Dedede, Taranza, Morpho Knight, Galacta Knight, Escargoon, Daroach, and Shadow Kirby Bonus Polls! Quotes are taken from what mod’s friends have said about them! ^-^

Honorary mentions (things mod wanted to put in the poll, but couldn’t) under the cut!

This man is so shippable *ships him with at least 2 characters*

GET DELETED >:D (Context: the Kirby Deletion Bracket results)

I'd pet him but he'd probably smack me :(

I love his theme :D

How did he split Kirby into four? What??

I'm going to cuddle him one way or another >:(

I want to punt him into the sun (/affectionate)

See this is a blorbo I can be mean to, an evil guy in a corrupted world >:)

[girlpog]

I’m running a ‘Kenna’s favorite blorbos bracket’ and these were the guys who didn’t quite make the cut. But!!! The top two winners of this poll get a chance to compete as honorary mentions!!

[ravka-bracket]

Honorary Mention: Oncat

A special honorary mention to Oncat, for putting up such a fierce battle in the most-voted on poll yet! In recognition, she will be given a position as minister for whoever wins the bracket and the country
