Plan of Attack

ATTENTION, DONNIE NATION:

As most of you know, Donnie lost in the @autismswagsummit semifinals poll against Shigeo "Mob" Kageyama. However, he has a chance at redemption via the Wheel of Doom. We're going up against Shadow the Hedgehog, the other semifinals loser, on Monday, March 13th, 2023. Shadow is a tough opponent, but I think we can do it if we just keep up the enthusiasm from the semifinals.

What we really need to brace for is the rematch against Mob--and Papyrus--if we do beat Shadow and earn a spot in the finals.

Our loss in the semifinals was a close one, but it was still a loss. Evidently, we need to make some changes. I don't have a guaranteed path to victory. Heck, I don't even have a lot of experience with these things. But I have some ideas.

Expand beyond Tumblr. I think this was one of our weak points in the finals. From what I heard, the Donnie vs. Mob poll really blew up on Mob-favoring Twitter circles, giving him a lot more votes than we anticipated. We need to close that gap. Infect Twitter. Infiltrate YouTube. Invade TikTok. Immerse every social media site in Donnie propaganda.

Appeal to previous Papyrus voters. Mob voters are probably going to stick with their previous decision; it was a choice specifically between Donnie and Mob. We may get a few on our side, but don't count on it. There weren't any barriers keeping Donnie voters from also picking Papyrus last time, though. We might be able to sway a decent number of people toward picking Donnie over Papyrus.

Keep up the propaganda. We're already strong in this department, but we can't afford to lose steam just because we had a minor setback. Keep making awesome videos and great artwork to promote the cause.

Be on time. A few people in the comments on the semifinals said that they would have voted for Donnie, but they were too late. A vote only takes a tap/click, and every vote counts. Make time to vote if you can.

Again, this isn't guaranteed to give us our desired result. It is fun, though, and I feel like it gives us a sense of solidarity--both within our own fandom and with other fandoms. Don't get in over your head, but do your best.

Good luck, everyone.

UPDATE---

As of March 14th, 2023, Donnie has conquered Shadow. Now he must face Abed Nadir in the Wheel of Doom Finals. It will be a tough battle, but as with the vote against Shadow, I think we can do it.

Stay strong, and good luck.

UPDATE 2---

As of March 16th, 2023, Donnie has defeated Abed. We're officially moving on to the finals!!! Get ready to face Mob again, as well as Papyrus. WE'VE GOT THIS!

I may or may not have just gotten AI Voice specifically for GUMI.

Mostly because I don't have the patience to make a Talkloid. And the first thing I did after figuring out the software was make some Donnie propaganda, because I'm original like that. I was decently satisfied with this after playing around with it for about an hour.

The script is stitched together from Google Translate. Here's what I got when I copy-pasted and translated it back into English:

"Vote for Donnie at Wheel of Doom tomorrow! Donnie needs all the support he can get in his fight against Shadow. Good luck Donnie!"

(Someone who actually knows conversational Japanese, can you verify this? Google Translate has come a long way, but it still isn't perfect.)

So yeah. I guess this is a thing I can do now.

Squaring up for the @autismswagsummit vote today

I know I already posted Donnie propaganda last night, but every vote counts! Go vote when the polls open up!
