Waiting to Start the Bracket! @mechsbrackets - Tumblr Blog

Submissions for the Best Mechanisms Quote/Line bracket are officially closed! Thank you so much to everyone who submitted a nomination!

Now that nominations are closed, it's time for the bracket! I'm going to be camping without service this weekend, so the bracket will start on Monday, June 5th! See you all then, and may the best quote win!

#the mechanisms #the mechs

I ended up a little busier today then I expected, so I won't be able to make the list of quotes on the bracket and the runner-ups until I get back from camping on Monday. I was hoping to get that done that before I closed nominations, so everyone could see the options, but ig that's not happening. Sorry!

In other news, the form to submit nominations for the Best Mechanisms Quote/Line bracket will be closed in less than a day, so if you have any last minute additions, now's your chance! The bracket itself will start on Monday June 5th!!

#the mechs #the mechanisms #there's finally a specific date for the bracket! it's happening!!#i had to push it back SO much #but now!!#it's happening!!!#i'm so excited to see which quote wins #actually i may do preliminary rounds of how exactly i should phrase a few quote that first day #things like seeing if i should include the 'ew!'#on the end of 'fuck the ship' / 'i do'#yk #they're all kind of little things like that #but they're things i sort of want to get peoples opinions rather then making the decision on my own #idk i may not?#we'll see how it turns out!

I've finished counting all of the nominations for the Best Mechanisms Quote/Line bracket! As of the time of posting, there are 76 responses, and 220 different quotes!!! So many!

The form to submit nominations is still open, and will be until... sometime around noon on Thursday. Maybe a little sooner, maybe a little later. So, make sure to get your last minute nominees in before that closes!!

Question: do you guys want the current list of 32 and current runner ups? I'm pretty much done for tonight, but I could get that together tomorrow if people want that. To clarify, what I mean by runner ups: currently quotes with 4+ nominations are in the bracket, so I'd put the ones with 3 nominations as well. The 3 nominations are runner ups. I am not formatting all of the quotes with 1 and 2 nominations, so if I did post all the quotes, you'd just get the quotes with 3+ nominations.

#the mechanisms #the mechs #the top quotes are still 'fuck you and fuck your train'#as well as 'fuck the ship' / 'i do'#by a pretty wide margin #i have Given Up on formatting everything nicely #but i want everything i put out on this blog to look nice #which is why i'm not posting all of the quotes right now #and instead am asking if ppl want the quotes #i need to format and double check the quotes regardless #but i don't wanna do that tonight #so i'm asking the masses so i can procrastinate doing that #but anyways!#GOD i love this band #all of their quotes are SO FUCKING GOOD #and i'm so happy that this was the chosen bracket theme #although 7 of you guys did nominate TS's death in DTTM so i'm sad too #i get why it's been nominated so much it's a really good and SAD quote #but it's the one that makes me cry every time

welcome back ! im glad youre feeling better now :]

Aw, thanks! I'm happy to be back :D

#i too am glad i'm feeling better!#not quite at good just yet but we're getting there!#slowly but surely

Ok. It's been summer for a couple weeks now, I have taken a nice break, and I am ready to come back and start counting nominations for the Best Mechanisms Quote/Line bracket!

I'm going camping starting Thursday, so I probably won't start the bracket until after I get back on Monday, just bc I don't want to vanish in the middle of a bracket. But! I now have the magical ~motivation~ again, so that'll be coming soon! I'll probably close the form to submit nominations sometime on Thursday, so I can start the bracket right away when I get back. In the meantime, there will be updates of some kind. Probably not nightly, but they'll definitely happen!

#the mechanisms #the mechs #i really needed the break #but i'm happy to be back now!#i've missed this fandom #i also took a break from CONSTANTLY listening to The Mechanisms #and now that i'm coming back after a few weeks i'm reminded of how AMAZING they are #(bc GOD all of their stuff is SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!)#also i have an associates degree!#i don't remember if i'd graduated yet or not last time i updated #now i'm off to university!#i'm a bit scared #but i'm sure it'll work out!

I am sick and life is Bad so the bracket is delayed YET AGAIN. I don't know why, but someone out there CLEARLY does not want me running this bracket. I think I'm done giving concrete dates for when the bracket will happen, because those go poorly every time. The bracket WILL happen, and it will hopefully happen within the next month (dear god please), but other than that, I'm sorry but I do not know.

#whyyyyyy #i really wanna run this!!!!!#i really really want to run this!!!!#but i have 0 energy #and i keep having to do things #i am SO sorry guys :C #istg this bracket WILL happen #but when? i have no clue #am i cursed or something???#every time i go 'ok i finally have the time and energy to sit down and count votes!'#life goes 'no you don't sit back down'#sad :(

Don't stress about it! Take as long as needed and take breaks as well! <3

Thank you, I will!

im with you right there in end of school stress, please feel free to put all the focus you need into whatever assignments and/or tests you got going on. we'll still be here and just as excited if you take a week or more off

School stress buddy! Thank you for your kind words! <3

#we're both so close!#good luck on all your assignments!

Hey don’t worry about this starting later! Work on your own schedule and we’ll be here whenever you’re ready!

Thank you, I really appreciate the kind response <3

#getting emotional over the kindness of strangers #you only know me as that person who runs mechs brackets and you still went out of your way to sent this ask!#<3 #happy :)

it's completely okay!! i get being stressed, dont worry about being 'late' or anything! youre doing great! <3

Aw, thank you!! <3

#i really appreciate the reassurance #technically i know y'all probably won't mind #but it's v nice to hear it from someone else #you know what i AM doing great!#you're right!!

I'm so sorry guys, life ended up happening and there ended up being no updates during this submission period. I will definitely plan these brackets out better in the future. But, submissions are gonna be closed in a minute, and at this rate, I'll probably start the Best Mechanisms Quote/Line bracket... idk, Wednesday or later. There's a small chance it will take until next week? Ok, actually should I just keep nominations open? You know what, I'm disorganized enough lately that that's what's happening.

Ok, submissions are staying open until I get my shit together and finish counting nominations. I reserve the right to close them whenever I want, but at this rate it won't be until at least Tuesday, probably later. I PROMISE that the bracket will be started by next Monday, May 15th at the LATEST, but last week of school is stressing me out so there's a possibility it may in fact take until then.

#the mechanisms #the mechs #i really want to run this bracket!!#but life has gotten in the way #like the only thing on my brain rn is school bc i procrastinates too much and still have stuff to do #*procrastinated #to those of you who have sent me asks:#i am not ignoring them but i'm not caught up enough on counting nominations to properly answer them #sorry!

take as much time as you need! its really nice of you to host these polls but it's important to take care of yourself yknow?

Aw, thank you!!! I will, dw! I'll be basically done with school after this week, so I'll have plenty of time this weekend to count nominations and post updates!

#i'm so close to my associates!#only 2 weeks left!#and it's rly 1 bc i MIGHT have a presentation next week #so ig i might have hw this weekend?#but it only needs to be 5+ minutes and it's about The Bifrost Incident so that'll be EASY #but my other big presentation and essay are due Thursday and Friday #and i'm done with my other 2 classes #so yeah almost done!#once i have my AA degree i'm off to university!#(scary but exciting!)#yk this ask rly wasn't a prompt to ramble on abt college #but that's still what i did #you're welcome!

#the mechanisms #the mechs

im calling it now: fuck you and fuck your train is gonna win

At the moment it does have the most nominations, so it has a pretty solid chance!

#the mechanisms #the mechs #it's a great quote

Will you be putting the source for the lines in the polls? I only ask because I surprisingly don't know where one of them comes from lol

I will, yes!
