Quote:
Navy- I love this! This represents Geminis to a tea, at least form what information you gave me. Great trinity this time around henty
Staryu- lol i'm an Aquarius..! This is kinda true since i'm lowkey a hippie and I love helping others. Now down to the songs, I think they're all great! So much peace and love.
Superpower- Mess @ my irrelevant brother. Chill. I don't know how I feel about this. Walking on sunshine is great, it's a light, cute song. But like you said, Leo's have huge personalities so I don't understand how it fits.
Sam- Another great trinity! yall hitting it right smh. I hate no mediocre though, but for the sake of the trinity i'll let it pass since it actually goes well with the libra theme.
Witch- omg wait, this is perfect. You literally tied everything together cutely. Like, all three of these songs are good, each of them are born Scorpios, and then to top it the **** off you decided to put in each stage. Well done henty.
Wesley- "Weaknesses: overly-trusting, sad, desire to escape reality, indecisive, self-pitying, bitter" Yikes
You finally have an entry that I like Kidding, but for real this is good sis. And of course a Nirvana songs fits in well with any theme that's low key depressing.
Jpow- You're always coming thru with these random songs. These songs really helped describe cancers to me. I like it sis. Good job!
Moonchild- Wait a miN, yas hun. This is a really great trinity. The explanations are on point too. Though, I kinda wish you didn't extend on the love for new experiences part, maybe something different? Nonetheless, it's still great.
MLD- oh sis, this is cute. Each songs helps explain your points nicely. Though, Happy isn't really my taste, but like I said, for the sake of the trinity and the fact that it fits well with your theme, i'll let it slide xx
Genetic- Oh sh*t, this is really good as well. Why the **** did yall decide to make my decision this week so hard? Idk how to rank yall. Anyways, bitch each song is great, and most importantly, highlights your theme well.

With the first song, Stop Dragging My Heart Around, I see it being the POV of a Gemini's lover too, actually. You pointed out how they're independent beings who can be inconsistent with love yet passionate, so one could only assume that that would drive the person on the receiving end of that crazy. 'Fly Away' is a good song that represents a Gem's independency needs. As one myself, I know I hate to feel like I'm tied down. As though I can't or am not allowed to have options or freedom. For 'Endless Love' though, why Aries? After the first two concepts, this one's pretty damn random. Actually...not really. It just kind of exposes that you just looked up a list of musicians under the sign and just chose songs from them. Lionel and Lenny are the standard ones that always come up for that when Googled so it was obvious (to me) that way too. If anything, I wish you would've chosen more eccentric and/or newer artists. Gemini is the sign of communication, intellect, versatility, and wit? When it comes to music, what kind of genre and artists do you think really utilizes these traits the most? I'd say Rappers and Hip Hop/Rap. Biggie, Tupac, Kanye, Azealia, Kendrick Lamar, Lauryn Hill. Gemini has bred the best ones ignore Iggy, Wacka Flocka, and Macklemore hehe. I would've made a trinity using Geminian rappers with songs representing the traits or whatever if you were gonna go the Gemini artists route. Anyway, overall you did very well. Wouldn't be surprised if you got GT or close to it. I think I may have went a little hard on you here simply because your entry was the first listed and cause I share the same sign.
Staryu
Luckily for you I'm not very familiar with Aquarius' much. I do know that they're innovative and rebellious, but yes, in the hippie sense and not the revolting let's-start-a-riot sense. A little OT but I notice that your entries have been pretty consistent. They usually have this cute theme and setup but are simple and not so lengthy.
Superpower
As I got more into astrology this year, Leo has become a personal favorite of mine. I'm a Gemini, and love that, but discovered that I have so many Leo planets that are all in the 5th House (which is also ruled by Leo). Explains so much. Always had an affinity towards the felines anyway. Anyway, I'm lowkey disappointed there's no Lion King tracks here, ngl.
I know in relationships, it's not so much that Leos want to be the dominant ones, but that they need to be treated like a king/queen in order for them to thrive and reciprocate. So for that part, I was expecting a song specifying that but with your line "But when they love, it's hard, unconditional, and generous" which rung very true, I realized that LYNSMA captured that emotion perfectly. Leos love big heartedly, all of you, proudly, and are also very affectionate and that's exactly how Alicia's asking to be loved. Although the Leonian Jennifer Lopez has a song with the same name of 'Walking on Sunshine', the renowned Katrina & The Waves version is sonically a better fit. I would say you've done a great job here. I wanna tell you to stop using spammed emojis as a border but I'm afraid of how your entries will look like without them. 
Sam
First impression: I'm slayed but why such a strong Rihanna presence? She's not even a Libra. I'm guessing that's why you X'd out her face though. Vain, superficial, diplomatic, can't stand being alone. That reads the Libran Kim K West down. Anyway, party poopers who say they "don't believe in astrology" or protest that it isn't real were always a Negative Nancy to me. However I love love love that you so proudly used that direction as your theme and focal point. And with ANTI as the muse to boot. Only thing I would've changed would be avoiding the use of anything with Rih's face anywhere but only simply cause it really threw me off initially. Ah, if only you were an anti-Pisces. Since you so strongly feel like you don't fit any (or most) traits of the Libra archetype, I'm intrigued to know where and what your other planet placements, aspects, and houses are. If there's a dominant contrasting influence of other areas, they can conflict, take precedence, and/or strain other placements so maybe that's why. Either way, I'll see you in the GT.
Witch
So I never knew about this three "totem" evolution stages or whatever. You learn something new everyday. Lucky you having something in threes to base your trinity off of. lol at the straight up copy and paste wording from that site you got it from.

Yeah Pisces and Aries are the worst, and most Sagittarius.

Eh. Most are too nice, and that pisses me off. I'd say I dislike Geminis and Sagittarius equally, along with Pisces and Aries.
These are mostly for relationships though, not friendships. And it's not like I take it seriously or anything, it's just fun to study up a bit on it.

it just so happens the only 3 boyfriends I have been with have been Pisces + they all ****ed up in the same way. Never change though! xo
|
Cancer. And they were. That's why they can manipulate you.
|
Dam Son, are you sure you're not a Pisces yourself? This bitterness. IMO, you give the Pisces female too much credit here. Interesting how you go IN on the males - even belittling literally every positive attribute mention but give the female part full on praise. The first song, "Come As You Are," and the explanation behind it is pretty perfect though.
JPOW
I really really appreciate the direction of using the ruling planet, element, and house to make up the trinity. You're also the only one to mention anything about the Houses. The setup was very simple and straightforward but I think it works very well too. Personally, there's a special place in my heart for Cancers. They're purely and ultimately such goodhearted people (Hi, Hug!) despite any role they're "playing" or mood they're in. So I can relate and agree with "My Moon My Man" and "Warm Water."
Moonchild
I think I've said this before, but your entries are always a sight for sore eyes after reading through the ones prior. I appreciate the compact neatness of it. Are you into astrology at all? I only ask because the trinity felt kind of standard for someone who personally shares the same sign. To be fair, the first and third song and your bit for them weren't much of a shallow interpretation but I just think it would've made for a more interesting read to add a personal touch or opinion in them. Since you're, after all, a Sag yourself. But all in all a very cool and interesting entry.
MLD
Yup. Agree with the Independent Women choice and it's explanation. That Tori Kelly song is a cute bop too. Your entries are always super basic with no formatting at all except good ol center, maybe a random google image pic for a header, and always the same full size youtube videos but the main thing I always appreciate is your write ups. They're usually never lacking and pick up the slack for all that. Even if I personally don't agree with what's being said, I can tell that you at least feel passionate/right about it.
geneticfail
Big fan of your entries. They always look so full, if that makes sense? They're fun to look at cause there's always so much going on but in a very organized way. But with that said, I feel like the good and bad with your entry was that it was very informative but in a basic pamphlet way. I didn't feel like you went with any unique route or delved into an attribute much. You just listed a bunch of standard facts neatly. However, for this theme, that works too. I'd say if anyone could get away with that direction in general, it'd be you cause you'd at least do it justice.

There are three users in the Flop Trinity. Navyofbadgals, Sam and Witch_Privilege, you are to collectively decide on two of these contestants to save from elimination and one to eliminate. You have 24 hours to discuss.
reposted special case info
You know the drill by now but given recent events let me outline some special cases: - ONLY IF YOU CANNOT REACH A CONSENSUS IN 24 HOURS, a majority vote will do. 2 out of the 3 Golden Trinity contestants must PM me with the same name.
- If a member of the Golden Trinity doesn't contact you for 24 hours, you can decide without them.
- If you all want a different member out, at least one of you must settle, somehow. If it's really that bad, make some kind of deal with whoever you're trying to convince. Maybe you have something to offer them in exchange for their agreement.
- If the Golden Trinity is having trouble deciding, please, someone, let me know before the deadline is up. That would help a lot.
As always, the lowest scoring contestant will be automatically eliminated if you guys do not discuss, like, at all.
I'd like to add on that everyone did well this round and that rankings were very close. We're also getting close to the point where there are less spots in between Golden Trinity and Flop Trinity than there are spots in the Flop Trinity. Even if you're in the Flop Trinity, it doesn't necessarily mean you flopped. There was only a difference of 4 average points between #1 and #9.
Thanks everyone for your patience, I'll be rolling out the next round soon so stay perched! When I was talking about different new challenges with Hugamari this was one of the rounds we were most excited about!

So I'm #10 in Hugamari's rankings and he doesn't even have comments this round. I HATE when that happens.
Welp, I guess I'm out.
