Most Liked Blogs (October - January)

+13

Past Three Months

As many of you may remember, last mid-October I took the time to look at the most popular blogs on JetPunk from July 16, 2021 until the date the blog was posted (that is, all of the blogs which appeared on the Recent User Blogs pages 1 through 5, or the most recent 250 blogs).

Now that there have been nearly 250 blogs (five full pages worth) since that blog was posted, I have decided to dig up the most liked blogs from October 10, 2021 until January 27, 2022.

So without further ado, here are the blogs which received 15 or more likes...

10 Million: Put in Perspective

Stewart - December 14, 2021

As a mathematician, I naturally found this blog to be very interesting. Most quizmakers will just publish a blog thanking those who have supported them/taken their quizzes or maybe make a special quiz or something of the sort. This illustration of the number 10 million (in celebration of Stewart receiving 10 million takes) is quite original and unique.

Interview of a JetPunker #18 - overtired

baptistegorce - November 21, 2021

It's not surprise that baptiste's always-enjoyed IOAJ made it this high up in the ranking. And the fact that the interviewee was the famous overtired makes the success of this blog even less surprising.

JetPunk 2021 - Year in Review

Stewart - December 23, 2021

Stewart continues to shine with his annual Year in Review blog, garnering an impressive 44 likes. I know many users, including myself, were looking forward to last year's Year in Review. Check out this blog for the stats and summary of everything-JetPunk from 2021.

It's Time For A Change

Stewart - October 13, 2021

Stewart once again dominates the RUB with this third most-liked blog from 2021 (and of all time). When all seemed lost in terms of toxicity in JetPunk and quality of blogs, our fearless leaders decided to make some changes which seemed to initially kill the RUB, but after a revival (I believe in part due to the BG) seemed to ultimately flourish. For example, just a few weeks ago there were 9 blogs published in one day (Jan. 16). Also, you may notice that last blog, I was able to feature all quizzes with 10 likes and up, but because of how many more likes blogs have been receiving, I had to change it to 15+.

Though it’s noticeable that most of these blogs are from people with dozens of subs. I wish people would be more careful with their subs instead of subbing to people like Quizzer6794 who have hundreds of blog subs but only one blog, that’s really only an announcement. People should sub to bloggers like MrBLOGGER, BGG, and lesser known users that contribute to most of the RUB.

You do realize the majority of Quizzer's blog subscribers are carryovers from quiz subscribers, right?

Exactly what I’m saying. People subscribe to quizzes and blogs at the same time, though they are completely different.

No, that's not what we're saying. Blog subscribers have only existed since the Blog Update last year. At that point only, all subscribers to a user were made for both quizzes and blogs. Now, when you subscribe to somebody, you only get subscribed for blogs OR quizzes, depending on which page you are on.

This means 99% of Quizzer's subscribers are entirely from before The Blog Update, and so are quiz subscribers.

Relessness, who hasn't even logged in to JetPunk for a couple years, has 424 subscribers for blogs despite the fact his blog page here is not linked anywhere. These are entirely from pre-Blog Update.

Oh I’m sorry I didn’t realize that they weren’t separate at one point.

Ethaboo, how did you get reless for guest judge if he hasn’t logged on?

I didn't realize that either. But I still agree with you that blogs should become more popular and bloggers who put lots of effort into their blogs get subscriber just as talented quizmakers do. I don't know if this would be good, but just an idea I had was that some of the most recent or most liked recent blogs could be featured somewhere on the front page. There might be some issues, so keep in mind that this is just a random idea.

@Baxtergrad, my name shows that I have been on JetPunk for 8 months, meaning that the Blog Update was posted a month before I joined. I have read the Blog Update, but I must have missed that part. Again, sorry for any frustration I may have caused.

It may have been a troll but in the Guest Judge Entry Form, someone put their username as relessness.

Another great blog! It's great to be reminded of the blogs in the past few months!

However, I think Stewart's Time for Change blog is the 4th most-liked all time, after:

1) Blog Update, Stewart

2) Tree Planting, Quizmaster

3) How to Improve the RUB, Fuse
