Choosing the tumblr found family @foundfamilyhq - Tumblr Blog

Welcome + Rules

Welcome to the Tumblr Found Family HQ! Here, we present your blorbos to the masses to have them vote upon whether they should be added to the collective tumblr found family or not. Submit your blorbos here:

Please read the rules before submitting and have fun~ :3

See which blorbos have already joined the found family HERE! For only characters who didn't join, see this shorter list here! To avoid seeing the results posts, mute "ff results" The rules are: 1. Play nice; be respectful to others 2. Blorbos can be of any age, since a found family can be just that. So feel free to submit a one-day old infant or a ten thousand year old tree, if those are your blorbos 3. No Harry Potter (or other titles associated to this series or the author) 4. No real people (might make an exception if it's funny) 5. "No real people" includes no individual tumblr users, youtubers or streamers (this might seem obvious, but there were still a lot of them submitted) 6. No OCs. All your OCs are great and I'd feel sad if they got rejected from the found family See F.A.Q. HERE!! Please check the F.A.Q. before asking any questions

Pokemon Design Tournament

This is a tournament to find Tumblr's favourite Pokemon design!

This is entirely about their visual appearances, not which Pokemon you like best in general - there's no hard and fast rule about voting criteria, but some things to consider could include how aesthetically appealing they are, how cohesive they are, how well they represent the Pokemon's type if at all, how well they convey the Pokemon's abilities or background, the colour palette, how recognisable they are, how unique the silhouette is... you get the idea! Their types and most recent Pokedex entry will be included in the post to give some helpful context you could use.

What will be included:

Every base Pokemon, from all stages of their evolutionary line

Regional variants

What won't be included for now:

Mega Evolutions

Shinies

Huge huge shoutout to @character-design-tournament - I initially got this idea as they were looking to host something like this, but had said it might be too extensive for their blog with the sheer number of Pokemon there are. They were kind enough to let me take the idea and run with it, as well as give me tips on how to run a tournament and answer questions! Go give them a follow if you haven't yet <3

Propaganda is optional, but there's no need to submit Pokemon or anything - all will be included by default.

I'll probably kick off the tournament in a week or so, once people have had a chance to follow!

Best Elite Four Member Tournament- Round 3: Match 8

Amarys vs Phoebe

Amarys

Phoebe

Voting ended onApr 6

Amarys' initial appearance.

Phoebe's initial appearance.

Our final match of the Round places two ladies who came from behind to win their debut matches!

With more vocal support than most, Amarys earned her win against Glacia for sure. She's the only person to have defeated a member of the Hoenn League, and now she's got the opportunity to do it again! Can the same support get her the win?

Phoebe did what I think no-one expected, beating fan favourite Larry in his very first match! She's surprised me, she's surprised voters, but what does that mean going forward? Can she keep the momentum going? Can she avenge Glacia's loss from last Round?

Indefinite Hiatus for the Blog

Hey, so you may have noticed a few repeat fandoms in today's batch of polls and the reason for that is I was clearing out the submissions form of the last few submissions - everything in the form has now been posted and when those polls conclude, I'll update the results accordingly

The reason for this is that I've sadly decided to put this blog on an indefinite hiatus. It's something I've resisted doing for a long time, because I really do love this blog and the concept of found families, plus it's been nice to see all the people who've been enjoying the blog and seeing regular faces in my messages

I've run this blog since August 2023 and had several major changes in my life since then. Ultimately, I don't have the time to devote to it that I once did. Running this blog is more time-consuming than it might seem and it's become an uphill struggle to make time for regular updates. Activity on the blog has dwindled from almost daily updates to every other day to sometimes I'm lucky if I can update it once or twice a week. I've put other projects on hold to run this blog and while I don't begrudge doing that, it's now at the stage where I don't think I'm giving either this blog or other stuff I do in my free time the attention either deserves and that's not really fair to anyone

I don't want to throw in the towel for good, but as it stands I think it'll be better for me to wait until maybe my situation changes again in future and hopefully sees me with more free time again. So hopefully this won't be goodbye as much as see you later. (I might also boost polls from other blogs here from time to time, but you can mute the 'other polls' tag if you don't want to see that)

Thank you to everyone who's been kind and approached this blog in good faith. I've enjoyed seeing all of your blorbos from a great many series that I'd never have heard of otherwise and seeing you all passionately defend your faves during the yearly Redemption Events. Who knows? Maybe I'll run another "Reject Elon Musk" poll next year, until the top ten most rejected characters on the blog are all Elon Musk one day. That'd be fun

Also, like I said at the start of the post, all current polls will be added to the results list when they conclude. After that, the blog will properly go on hiatus

tl;dr version: The blog is going on hiatus because I don't have the time to run it efficiently right now, but I hope that I will again in future

Take care and see you all around!

Okay, so that's the last of the poll results updated on the lists and so the blog is officially in hiatus for real now During the time that the blog has run from August 2023 until now we've reached 101 pages in the document of characters who've been judged. Maths isn't my strong point, but if anyone wants to put together any stats posts based on that, then feel free Other than that, I hope you all take care and I look forward to seeing you when my schedule flips enough that I can run this blog regularly again <3
