Please read our introduction blog for information if you are new to this event.  The deadline for blogs is 12 AM EST/5 AM BST/9 PM PST on Tuesdays (Monday for PST).

Overall Score: 82/100

Ethaboo's Criteria Grading:

9/10: Formatting - The formatting is really nice, and the images give a very nice and simple touch to the blog.

7/10: Grammar - The grammar could still use some work but is still very nice.

9/10: Appeal - The appeal is great since the last blog of this series has been so great.

10/10: Content/Information - There is a LOT of content and information in this blog with all of the facts and many other things about these national parks.

8/10: Creativity/Uniqueness - This is pretty unique, but does lose some points because of previous national park blogs.

Overall, I really love this blog, just like the last one and I cannot wait to read about more Brazilian national parks because the US ones are not spread out and almost none are in the north-east!

ChineseChen's Criteria Grading:

8/10: Formatting - Very nice use of dividers and split view, although the place where the split view meets the text box has a little gap.

6/10: Grammar - Better than the first part

8/10: Appeal

10/10: Content/Information - Lots of content and nice pictures

7/10: Creativity/Uniqueness

Ethaboo's Criteria Grading:

Before we get into the number one blog this week, I would like to introduce the 3 honorable mentions for this week! Also, the honorable mentions will NOT actually be based on the criteria, just my opinion on the blog. But I will be rating them on the criteria. For the first honorable mention, I would like to present...

Jetpunker180 - Meanings and Stories behind Country Names

This blog I really loved and was very nice. The dividers in the blog are probably the most distinct. Although, at the end of the blog when you scroll to the comments, you are greeted with a whole splash of different colors and rainbow text, too much for my eyes to take. Overall, this blog got a score of 81/100, a very good score for just the second week of the Blog Games as the Blog Update is starting to settle down.

FacterLiger0804 - What if the Dinosaurs Still Existed? - #1

The blog seems a bit unreal for a new blogger, and I especially enjoyed the dividers at the beginning and the end of the blog, and give it a nice touch. The rest of the formatting was also really nice with the new split view feature with the Blog Update, and many others. But, the appeal and creativity could use just a little bit more work. Overall, this got a 76/100.

BigGeographyGuy - What if the Portuguese Empire Reunited Today?

The final honorable mention is a part of a series BigGeographyGuy makes, what is an empire reunited. I have seen this sort of content on Youtube before, and the creativity is a little depleted because of that. Also, the formatting could also use a little but more work, but other than that, everything else was very good. This blog got a 75/100.

Malkiboy

Overall Score: 90/100

We have some bad news: due to JetPunkland being rank 1 two weeks in a row, we have decided to exclude it from the Blog Games top 5 to give other people a chance at being in the top 5. But, it can still be an honorable mention. This doesn't mean that JetPunkland isn't good though!

Ethaboo's Criteria Grading:

8/10: Formatting - The formatting had a lot more nicer touches to make it look more colorful and enjoyable.

9/10: Grammar - The grammar is very good, especially for a very well-detailed and long blog.

9/10: Appeal - Obviously, like many other blogs in a series, if the previous episodes are good, the appeal is going to be good.

10/10: Content/Information - Nothing I need to say about this one

9/10: Creativity/Uniqueness

ChineseChen's Criteria Grading:

8/10: Formatting

9/10: Grammar 

9/10: Appeal - Interesting as always

10/10: Content/Information - Broke Malkiboys' old 30k character record

9/10: Creativity/Uniqueness

michaelngwa - The Official Unofficial Study of Momentum in Sports

Very nice first blog, the concept is very new to JetPunk. This blog got 85/100.

Nazgul - THE TALES OF LE MAFIA - LEGENDARY MECHANIC #1

This blog is a simple script. Our only complaint is that the script is messy and a bit hard to read. 67/100

Any blogs that are labeled as "Milestone Blogs" won't be graded on the criteria as it doesn't seem correct to grade a blog just celebrating a milestone and saying a simple thank you. But, I still feel the need to welcome them to the blogging community!

FacterLiger0804

Welcome to all new bloggers, and I hope you can make more great blogs in the future!

We have decided to exclude series that have been in the Top 5 for two weeks in a row. This is to allow other blogs to have a chance. However, these series will still be eligible for Honorable Mentions. JetPunkland is such a series. This doesn't mean that these series aren't good though!

I thank you for reading this week's Blog Games! Hopefully next week the blogs can be better than ever. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, please state in the comments. We hope you enjoyed! Bye!
