Congratulations to Bismuth

Tumblr's Favourite Element

[periodictabletournament]

After several weeks, many many polls, a whole lot of me copy pasting things, heaps of asks and lots of campaigning and propaganda from all sides

The title of Tumblr's Favourite Element goes to

🎉Bismuth - 83 - Bi🎉

The rainbow colours and very slight radioactivity proved interesting and/or gay enough to best all 117 other elements!

That means we will be represented by Bismuth in the upcoming @tournament-winners-tournament

(feel free to take the image and such from the poll posts or whatever, I would DM you about it but shadowbanned, so no DMs)

Keep an eye on this blog for more to come, I have a few ideas, and if you have an idea you'd like to see please drop it in my asks and I'll see what I can do!!

Thank you all for joining in and embracing my little tournament idea, it's been a heap of fun and I'm really glad to have everyone here 💜

Welcome to the everything bracket!

We are currently in submission time.

Last updated 05/05/2025 at 23:33 CET, Next update scheduled between 18:00 and 23:59 CET on 06/05/2025.

The steps for this:

Submit categories

Submit things per category

Run round one per sub-category

Run rounds two to whatever per sub-category

Run round one per main-category

Run rounds two to whatever per main-category

Put main-categorycategory winners against eachother

Season two planning

A category can be as obscure as you wish or as broad, maybe your category has sub-categories in which case those categories will run and then they run against eachother for the big category.

Please submit categories here:

The everything bracket, Category submission

There are ten things you can fill in, only the first is required, just so you don't have to re-open it too much

As for contestants, those can also be submited, the google questionaire will be updated with all new categories submited as we go.

Submit contestants per category here:

Reblog by @the-everything-bracket · 3 links

💬 0  🔁 3  ❤️ 4 · The everything bracket, Contestant submission · 101-110 Every category is listed as a seperate question, on a seperate pag

Fair warning, I will be keeping strictly to Tumblr guidelines, so while a true crime category is allowed, it is not allowed to discuss what things happened in it in more detail then "A murdered B" or "C was found in a chimney". This to avoid being striked down anywhere during this.

[periodictabletournament]

You've done "best". When are we getting sexiest?

at least 3 other blogs did most fuckable. meanwhile i burnt out.

[amisscreant]

With @staff 's recent post saying 1/4 of this site is LGBTQ going around, I'd like to see what the actual demographic is

So!

would you identify yourself as:

LGBTQ+

not LGBTQ+

unsure/questioning

Please reblog for bigger sample size!

[funky-writer-man]

Ah yes, 1/4......

[schistcity]

[vorbisx]

generally, they take care of that themselves

FINALS

WHAT IS THE BEST ELEMENT?

Carbon

Silicon

Argon

Potassium

Strontium

Flourine

Bismuth

Promethium

Plutonium

Cobalt

Voting ended onAug 10, 2023

CARBON:

Forms the basis of all life

What diamonds, coal, and pencil lead are made of

Used to make graphene, one of the strongest materials (one atom of thickness is 200x stronger than steel)

SILICON:

Not to be confused with Silicone

Could potentially be used to make life instead of carbon

Used in a lot of electronics, hence the name of silicon valley

ARGON:

Has a distinctive purple glow

used in neon signs

often mistaken as a pirate's favorite element

POTASSIUM:

Found in high quantity in bananas

burning it produces a light purple or red flame

the first metal to be discovered by electrolysis

STRONTIUM:

Used in cancer treatment

Used in toothpaste

The most accurate atomic clock (to one second in the 200 million years) uses strontium atoms

FLOURINE:

the most receptive and most electronegative of all the chemical elements

oxygen, helium, neon, and argon are the only elements fluorine can't react with

the only element that can react with noble gases, specifically xenon, krypton, and radon

BISMUTH:

the most diamagnetic metal (meaning it gets repelled by magnets instead of attracted)

Known for its unique shape and colorful style

PROMETHIUM:

the last lanthanoid to be discovered

PLUTONIUM:

Named after the dwarf planet Pluto

Was once thought to have been discovered by Enrico Fermi along with element 93, but he was actually mistaken. He named it Hesperium.

An unnaturally poor conductor of electricity

Used to make atomic bombs, even more powerful than uranium

Known by some as the "forbidden gummy"

COBALT:

Turns a vibrant blue when heated to extreme temperatures

Named after kobolds, who are "mythical, death-dealing goblins" (not the lizard kobold)

One of only three elements that are ferromagnetic at room temperature

[periodictabletournament]

coming out of retirement to say: i think we all know the answer here

[periodictabletournament]

hey don't take this poll stuff too seriously ok? it's just silly for fun, if it doesn't spark joy don't stress over it!

thanks. it is fun, i've just had a bunch of big life stuff to do which is less fun

[periodictabletournament]

maybe i should make the other half of the round one polls tonight.

(in playing a game called "if i make a post about it then i'll start feeling guilty about it within 24 hours and therefore actually do it instead of not doing it" it's great fun i recommend it to everyone!)

[periodictabletournament]

update: i didn't do it. because i am Stressed about Life Things. maybe tomorrow idk.
