Gimmick Blog Bracket 2: electric boogaloo

Taking over the role

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

Hii!

So I’ve been a fan of the original blog for a while, and was sad to see them go, but I totally understand the need to take a break. Since I have an awful lot of free time, I figured I’d take the opportunity to continue the tournament.

I’m not 100% sure what I’m doing, and it will take a while to figure it all out, so please be patient! In the meantime, feel free to ask questions or submit blogs/propaganda in my inbox OR via this google form:

Submissions are closed, but feel free to leave any extra propaganda in the askbox!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

I hope you're doing well! How's the bracket going!!!!

thanks for checking in! i realize i probably should have updated everyone sooner, my apologies!

don’t worry, i didn’t forget about this blog :] ive just had some unexpected personal stuff going on along with getting pretty consumed by artfight.

I think i’ve given up on finding an automatic way to ping all of the blogs for the tournament, and will instead have to type it all……..by hand…………..yay….. but i am still working on it, don’t worry!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

oughhhhhh its a struggle……….if anyone knows how to compile a list of names and use it to tag people please send me the strat in my ask box please 🙏 in the meantime i shall start typing a bajillion drafts, i suppose

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

hi mod!! hope the new year is treating you well :] how's it going?

hello!! thanks for the ask :)

hope everyone’s year has been great so far!

i have the spreadsheets all set up now, it was a pretty easy (thx to the prev mod’s help) but reaaaallly long process. now all i have to do is figure out how to use them lol

apologies for having this take so long, i have NOT forgotten about it, don’t worry!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

as an update. I don’t know what I’m doing. yayayay!!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

And thus concludes the submission period!

Thanks for everyone’s awesome submissions! While I’m putting them together, feel free to add extra propaganda in my ask box, along with any questions you might have!

submissions may open again for a short period of time soon, so keep an eye out :)

Sorry for tagging people in a post I made months ago just now somehow??????????

[the-original-gb-bracket]

Anyways it seems to have given some people the impression I'm doing this again? Which, well, I'm sorry, but I'm not. Someone else is, @new-gimmick-blog-bracket, and submissions there close on November 1st, so maybe again go over there if you're hyped about this happening or whatever

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

That’s me!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

hope you're well!! is the set up for season 3 going okay?

I’m doing well! Set up for season 3 is going great so far, I finally understand how to actually do the thing 👍 And I’ve gotten a ton of submissions lately which is great!

With that said, I have finally set a date for the form to close, so make sure you get all of your blogs and propaganda submitted by November 1st (no specific time) so that I can set up the actual tournament!!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

sooooo….. guess who accidentally saved the google form as a draft instead of posting it????? ahahaha…. not me obviously, that’d be… that’d be crazy.

ANYWAYS if you want to submit more gimmick blogs then go HERE

Gimmick Blog Submissions

Submit blogs/propaganda to be included in season 3!!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

I’ve been debating this for a while now so I figured I’d get other people’s insights on it!

Would you rather…

have a shorter submission time and start the season sooner

have a long submission period and start the tournament later

results

Voting ended onJul 27, 2025

I wont necessarily go with the winning result, but it’ll help to see other peoples opinions on it!

for instance, if we start the tournament sooner, I would put the submission form out soon and end it in about a month, and if we started it later I’d probably put the submission form out in a few days and end it in a few months.

if you have questions feel free to ask in the askbox!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

previous bracket has scored two kills already

we believe in you

haha thank you!!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

Are you taking submissions for new blogs at the moment? If so can you suggest blogs you don’t own or do they have to be your own?

I am currently making a google form for y’all to use to submit, but in the meantime submissions ARE open via the ask button! And you can absolutely submit any blog, whether you are the mod or not, as long as it is a gimmick blog and the moderator of the blog doesn’t mind participating!!

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

I really like the pfp it's such a cute lil groovy dude

I wish that could be one of my keychains

thank you!! I’ve literally never used ms paint before in my life and I doubt I’ll ever use it again haha. I agree it is a silly little falla. a goofy goober, if you will.

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

update!!

All previous contestants (minus the two previous winners and any who wish to be left out) will be carried into the upcoming round! No need to resubmit anyone, unless you’d like to add new propaganda :) Thanks again to everyone for the incredible support!

less importantly, I’m terrible at pixel art so the pfp for this acc will be the trash I threw together in ms paint. i kinda like it though, it has character.

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

Good luck!

Thank you :)

Howdy! The gimmick blog bracket is officially over and done. I'm not doing this again.

Firstly, I want to thank all you people for your continued support and participation. I promise I'm not upset at anyone, except maybe myself for going through this whole song and dance again even after I wasn't entirely sure I would have the fortitude to go another round. So I thought it would be for the best if I didn't do this anymore before I start hating this blog and everything it stands for.

Secondly, if anyone else wants to make their own gimmick blog bracket, you have my blessing. You can even use the silly little python program I made to run the competition if you want. Considering all the work I put into it, I'll probably run some other tournaments at some point and time (don't know what they would be), just not this specific one anymore.

As for what this specific blog will come to? I'm not going to deactivate it, but it'll probably get completely or mostly abandoned. I don't know how to deal with this sort of thing in a healthy way before it gets this bad unfortunately

[new-gimmick-blog-bracket]

Your legacy lives on!!
