Just A Little Idea

since chinese new year is next month (Feb 10th) I figured I’d do a poll like this— it also indicates a tumblr age demographic so that’s always interesting

reblolgos for bigger sample size :))

wanted to recreate that ancient "put a / for the year you were born" poll, so. . .

also please for the love of hell don't put your age in the tags, i want this to be as anonymous as humanly possible

also please please please reblog the original post, at least for comparison and context!

the image is from an article on skin color measurement in regards to oximetry readings, it was the best I could find as far as having a decent range but a small enough number to fit in a poll

Cybertronian Units of Time: a Guide

…concocted by me, via:

Canon Definitions

Most Common Terms Used in Fandom (that I have seen)

Most Common Interpretations of Aforementioned Terms

Math That Makes Those Terms Make Sense Together

Filling in the Blanks With What Sounded Good (to me)

So essentially I began with Cybertronian units with explicit definitions in canon that are also widely used in fandom (ie. Vorn = 83 years, Joor = 6 hours, Groon = 1 hour). I then worked my way out from those and tried to keep to rough factors of 6/8/10.

Some terms that did have explicit canon definitions had to be slightly skewed from their value (ie. Breem: 8 → 6 minutes, Klik: 8 → 6 seconds) if their definition contradicted another definition that made more sense/fit better. 

At any rate, obviously no one is obligated to use this standard, but canon Transformers content has been unfortunately… awful at establishing any universal units of time, their relationship to each other, or their equivalents to human units of time.

So this occasionally makes fanfiction an absolute nightmare for people like me with a crap memory who don’t want to constantly have to scroll through a thousand pages of the wiki to remind themselves what the hell a groon is.

So, naturally, I simply spent far too long whipping up this at-a-glance guide to keep track of it & on the off chance that the fandom might adopt it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

(PLEASE REBLOG THIS IF YOU LIKE IT SO THAT MORE FANS CAN SEE IT!)

(4/6) Give me 6 Riddlers to make fanart of. Pretty please? Your own/other artists designs, comics, anything will do!

Riddlers:

Arkham City

@stickparrot's design

Not counting DNIs that are obviously jokes, and assuming there's no specific item in the DNI that would change your mind about wanting to follow the blog–

DNI: Do Not Interact, usually a list of traits/beliefs/ideals where the blogger wants to prevent people with those traits from interacting with their blog (following them, liking them, commenting or messaging, etc).
