I don't think this blog should be rated, and if so it should not be based on these criteria.

iluvbread123's Comments:

The formatting is decent and the grammar has some noticeable flaws. It does not lack content but it wasn't exactly in depth, and hence I'm not giving too high of a score for this. This ___ vs ___ topic is really overused, and thus the creativity score won't be too high. Not bad

Blog Rank 3! - 87isback: Oddball Museums Around the World #1

Clean formatting, no noticeable flaws in grammar, and of course, interesting topic. However, one major flaw of it is that it unfortunately has very little information.

iluvbread123's Comments:

Appeal and creativity are subjective. Good amount of content. Formatting is clean and sufficient but I would say addition of a few more elements (such as images and more dividers) could further improve this score. I believe I found one grammar mistake, but I could be wrong about that since I'm not exactly the best at that :P Good blog overall!

Honorable Mentions

Before we get into the number one blog this week, I would like to introduce the 3 honorable mentions for this week!

Level 77
Jan 12, 2022
I think it was because Bread gave honest scores to the blogs. Instead of the regular (7/)8-10 scoring, he branched out to a 5, which is largely reasonable for some of the blogs.

Yeah, he warned us about his rankings were going to be a bit lower than what I and Chen normally grade. We have been planning to combat this issue with the rankings, and will most likely be implemented next week or Week 9.
