I don’t know why this is funny. No, I don’t know this character and I wanna keep it that way!!!

you can tell who has anxiety and who doesn't by the questions. "what should I vote in this specific circumstance??" babe just click a button

Lmao this is so real 😭 and I get it, I do!! And I certainly appreciate those who try their best to answer as accurately as possible. But I have to say it really isn't that serious. Nothing bad will happen if you misclick or your vote isn't 100% correct every single time. It's all just silly fun!

Every time I find your blog again I go back through all the posts I’ve missed to see who has come up. And inevitably every time I only know a couple of them, but those couple are always my favorites characters from some of my favorite games or shows and I feel like I abandoned them in their hour of need! I see them left in the rubble and dust of 95%+ of people never having heard of them and weep over their unrecognized bodies

I'm picturing you running through my blog like this to get to your blorbos as quickly as possible:

Not a serious request, but sometimes I wish there was a "Yes, I know them, but I wish I didn't" option for characters I hate

That's what the tags are for! Go forth and find solidarity with other haters <3

Betting Obi-Wan will win as the most recognisable character

By number of votes, for sure. The others don't even come close. But by percentage? Cinderella is still our reigning champion. (Ngl, I'm semi-considering axing Obi-Wan from the official count because he is an outlier.)

i wonder if anyone has accidentally has voted they dont know a character they do know

Oh yeah, for sure. It does happen quite a bit. But it's okay, some margin of error is to be expected even with the most rigorous scientific studies, let alone a silly Tumblr experiment.

I have notifications on so I see the image before I see who it is so sometimes I'm like "do I know the character or just the actor?"

Then I click on it and I don't know either one

A day will come when you will know that character, don't give up!!

I mostly vote with the crowd apparently which I find really funny because that doesn't mean at all that I don't know random characters. Just means no one has unleashed, for instance, Transformers hell on your inbox yet.

We've had a couple already and I've spotted a few more among the latest submissions, but certainly nothing I would describe as "hell" yet! (NOT a challenge to spam me with Transformers characters lmao)

yayyy i submitted some of my & Juliet blorbs :D

Woo, congrats!! One of them I believe is already in the queue from the last round of submissions. (I don't know if that one is also from you, though.)

[doyouknowthischaracter]

Has there ever been a time when someone submitted a character you recognized but had no idea that they were from the media the submitter listed?

(Idk how to word it correctly but like if you recognized a character from a video game and the submitter put down that they were from a comic or something) (as in the character appears in multiple things)

Hmm no, nothing exactly like what you ask. Not that I can recall off the top of my head right now, at least. But something similar happened with Aeryn Sun, for example, who I was convinced was from Stargate, not Farscape. Turns out Claudia Black was in both shows, so at least my confusion is justified, but I'm still not entirely sure if the photos I've used for her are from Farscape or Stargate haha

[doyouknowthischaracter]

will you add an idk the character BUT I have heard about where theyre from option?,

I don't see the point in doing that considering we're measuring the popularity of characters rather than pieces of media. If you feel like a characters sits between "I know them" and "I don't know them at all" with neither option really fitting, that's what "I've only heard of them" is for. But adding an entirely different option is gonna be a no, sorry!

[doyouknowthischaracter]

If I've consumed the media a character is in but it was a long time ago and/or I just don't really remember them, how would you prefer I vote? I've been going with "only heard of".

That's fine, but I wouldn't object to going with "I know them" in cases like this either. Just follow your heart and don't overthink it!

[doyouknowthischaracter]

I'm honestly so glad you posted the submissions when you did cause I got in early and am hoping all my blorbos appear on my birthday

If you're the submitter who left their birthday date in the notes... I'll see what I can do about it 👀

[doyouknowthischaracter]

Has anyone ever submitted an obscure blorbo of yours that made you go "OMG HOLY SHIT THIS GUY"

None of the really obscure ones yet! The least well-known that's been posted so far is probably Bonnie MacFarlane from Red Dead Redemption, but I wouldn't exactly call RDR an obscure game or Bonnie a minor character, ya know?

[doyouknowthischaracter]

just out of curiosity, has anyone submitted any Granblue Fantasy characters ? :0c

Nope, not a one!
