come vote in this poll, boy. for science. current results are showing that

47% of aussies have heard of the phrase compared to

9% of americans and

9% of nonaussimericans

so follow up question: where the HELL are all you aussies (& others) hearing this damn phrase...

edit: for people asking what it means it's basically just like, play hard to get by being mean to someone you're trying to attract and it will make them want you more aka keep them "keen" which IS documented aussie slang but i cannot find any documentation or origin story for the full phrase

i was requested to ask this in poll form cause our group chat sample size is too small to see if this is a specific regional divide or something. this is targeted @ usamericans & aussies but i’d LOVE a global sample size pls do reblog if you’d like to help us be less confused 😭

[mfshipbracket]

I’d love for the m/f ship rematch to include some more obscure fandom ships

the final bracket will be up to submissions (and successful campaigning?!) but MAN!!!

i’d love to include a wide range of ships and rarepairs and see more of them submitted 🥹🥹🥹… if you guys bot the form i’ll look away i prommy (half joking)

[mfshipbracket]

Hey there! I have a question about the future tournament. Will ships from Minecraft YouTube be allowed too? Referring to the rp minecraft characters, not the irl creators themselves. Because I know in the past some tournaments didn't allow mcyt while others embraced it, so I wanted to make sure beforehand! Thanks!

yeah sure! neither of us know mcyt very well (but we do think the fandom’s chockfull of crazy talent LOL) and yanno. we have fun here first <3

[mfshipbracket]

I think you should include more widely hated m/f ships for increased drama and pit them against each other to force your followers to make a hard decision. I want to see how Reylo does against other fandom pariahs like Snape/Lily or Loki/Sylvie

that’ll be up to democracy and viewers like you to toss your most controversial m/f ships into the gauntlet <3 when submissions begin we’ll gladly post propaganda for it. ghost mod thinks a ship hate bracket would be funny. i’m of the idea that we have to remember it’s all in jest and good fun and hope the ship enjoyers can laugh with us and not at us etc

though i will say we have decided as mods to exclude parry hotter entirely still . even if i think snape/lily would be really funny. and i could subject all of you to the delightful glee and horror of a different snape ship. but we shant

[mfshipbracket]

we ARE still here!

sorry about the silence. crazy 2023 amiright. no we haven’t abandoned or forgotten. ghost mod is writing their thinkpiece we shan’t make any moves forward till that is done (accountability.)

but i envision m/f bracket season 2 rising on the horizon. there’s new ships to discuss. ships that never made the cut. and ships that deserve redemption, or maybe even revenge. dunno.

so posits the questions: how do we collect for season 2? what can we improve on? will ghostmod finish their reylo vs everyone thinkpiece? every journey begins with but a thousand questions and answers sought. please do share with us, wise wizards and warriors, what you think.

obligatory poll to kick us off:

[mfshipbracket]

reylos crying on twitter because Adam Driver explicitly confirmed that Bendemption was never originally in the plans for Kylo....this is justice for the last 8 years, actually

[mfshipbracket]

Are there any ships in bracket that you ship yourselves?

i think i like the majority of the ones frm the og bracket LOL it made some choices easier cuz i knew in my heart who’d sweep the whole thing (nihilism voter /j.) but overall i wasn’t too upset cuz well . i ship almost all of these hfkskdksjfnd

my personal top 5 are huntlow (i am a huntlow fanartist), msr, horishima, maleigh, & percabeth. if i started listing every ship here i personally really love then i may as well direct to the entire bracket 🫡

oh and of course broppy. i wouldn’t have made broppy the icon if i didn’t like broppy. i had like a whole 6 months where the only movies i watched on rotation were trolls, pacific rim, penelope, cars, and your name 🥹

[mfshipbracket]

hey you didn’t say we also got kataang on here too . our impact

Congratulations lol because of you Reylo hit number 10 on the fandometrics weekly ships

not to callback to a previous anon, but do you think if we work hard enough we can make reylo top ship of 2023 at the year end roundy up or whatever again

[mfshipbracket]

hello!! welcome to the T+T TOURNEY !!! my name is achilles (he/him) but you can call me dynamite or really whatever else you want to ,, and i will be your host for this wonderful journey <3

this polls goal is to find the duo or group with the MOST transgender swag!!! any media is welcome (ttrpg, mc rp, books, podcasts, i truly mean anything) though i will NOT accept anyone from h//rry p//tter or real life. go absolutely wild!!!

a few ground rules --

1. dont be little shits. be so niceys. please :(

2. dont rig the vote !!! propaganda of any kind is welcome but my gods i do not have the energy to deal with botting. the askbox will be open and anon will be on for the duration of this bracket!!

3. if ur guy doesnt win do NOT be mean about it. sometimes thats just how the world works. theyll get em next time!!

4. obscure blorbos are so welcome actually i encourage the submission of obscure guys. i just cannot garuntee a spot on the bracket or a win for them

5. pleaseeee do not submit zelda/link from tloz they r automatically on the bracket. the yaoi yuri mf pair ever

6. submit as many guys as ur heart desires!!!! just dont submit the same guys more than once. if i find out anyone spam submitted some guys they will be disqualified

7. blorbos will be added to the checklist portion of the form when they reach 5 submissions. number is subject to change if i end up getting more than i expect

bracket size will depend entirely on how many submissions this gets !!! and uhh . obligatory "this poll was inspired by other polls like": @mfshipbracket @tboytgirlswagtagteam @bestshipsmackdown @silly4sillypoll @ot3showdown @worstshippoll @bestfictionaldivorce and SO many others all of the brackets floating around have been phenomenal

[mfshipbracket]

Welcome one and all! From the creator of @nexttopghost comes the Sadboy Showdown. I’m your host, The Poll Worker! Our goal here is to find the saddest, most traumatized, most mistreated little dudes and make them fight for the honor of tumblr’s favorite. I’m currently accepting submissions for the bracket under the following rules

1) For as much as we love ladies, this is a sad boy tournament. Your sad boy has to be a dude. They can be nonhuman though

2) No casts of characters! I don’t wanna see anyone put “the whole cast of supernatural,” your submission will be ignored!

3) No real people. That means No Alan Turings, no Bram Stokers. Mythology is ok, and bands that are explicitly characters (like Studio Killers or Steam Powered Giraffe) are also ok as long as they are EXPLICITLY characters

4) If there is a tie, we’ll do it again, if there’s a tie twice, we revive a guy from the previous round and whoever wins then moves forward. If we manage to get a three-way tie, then god help your soul

5) Have fun and send in your propaganda

Now give me your boys! The form will run until we get at least 32 entries

hi can i make a patch for my jacket that says "to err is human, to forgive is divine, and to be a little hater is my goddamn civic right" or are you copyrighting it

YES!!!! patch away and send pics.

[mfshipbracket]

Really did not expect Kataang to be the new Shriona

i don’t think any of us did it’s uhm. like they say . only shriona master of all four elements could sweep r*ylo but when the world needed them most they vanished . a few months passed and the mods discovered the new shriona. an m/f pair called kataang—

[mfshipbracket]

Themed Bracket Concept (since apparently ppl are sending them): queer m/f ships. at least one member of the ship must be canonically queer to qualify.

Several of the ships in this already had one or both characters in them be queer, and I'm sure there are more in submissions, I like queer m/f ships quite a lot and just think it would be fun

(also it would be so funny in response to the person who said this blog was homophobic, lol)

PLS LOL i love queer m/f. it’s so healing and this is a very good idea <2

and so true . the homophobic allegations rly are so funny like

[mfshipbracket]

i keep reading 'mfshipbracket' as motherfucker ship bracket, and now that I've thought about it I keep expecting to see a poll with oedipus and jocasta

we can’t do that cuz that’s what freud would want.

americans giggling and kicking their feet as they vote reylo over charles and camilla, poetic

fun story . on coronation day of the old bag and his matching hag my parents and i had all woken up at about 2 am pacific standard time by pure happenstance and i was like hey. we should watch the coronation . cause what else can we do at 2am . so we turned it on and my first question was hey now, why does everything have to be punctual . who cares if the horses were a few minutes too early . and then i was confused cause there were too many white people.

anyways i was falling asleep as they handed him the holy hand grenade and my final thought was. stolen jewels lay heavy on the crown of a man who deserves nothing but to feel the weight of blood on his hands

and then we played bingo for my mom’s bday <3
