Kingdom 2nd round ranking (experts + self evaluation)

SKZ deserves better

the self evaluation feels more like fanboying levels right now to be completely honest... I find the expert ranking weird too...

to think tbz got no vote after putting one of the best performance...

Quote from kidsgonestray

My personal favourites were Stray Kids, The Boyz and BTOB, who all coincidentally ranked quite low at one point, Stray Kids getting the worst end of it.

I dont have anything to say lol...

The rankings are super weird this time again... skz and tbz at 6th makes zero sense

The Boyz deserves better. They deliver really great performance

I honestly can’t believe Stray Kids got 6th (expert evaluation) with this:

What the hell!? I wasn’t going to watch the whole thing until the subs were up on Viki but that was... so good...? How did they rank last with that? I got goosebumps at the end!

The fandom has also noticed, o sole mio performance on youtube gets views deleted daily, more than the number of views it gains.. it gained barely 30k yesterday and then they deleted 100k again.. it keeps happening every single day..

also sf9 got views with ads this time around which even us fantasys have no clue came from.. we dont know how many will be counted now

mnet being fishy again

Quote from Pearl-Iris

I feel like Ateez are setup for lots of hate. Feeling bad for TBZ and SKZ. I.N crying badly hurt my heart, I hope he doesn't blame himself for the ranking. All groups perfs were amazing in this round.

i think so too, i am afraid what kind of drama is mnet trying to create

these rankings don't make sense at all lol

The Self Evaluation Ranking you posted is actually an overall score as seen in the photo I posted below.

Self Evaluation Ranking

1. BTOB + SF9 (TIED)

3. ATEEZ + iKON (TIED)

--

5. Stray Kids

6. The Boyz

no one vote for the boyz , sadly.

I'm not that sad about Stray Kids positions, because I already knew about their rankings since last week and I talked about it on the Guild for days, lmao. So I was prepared.

I'm more sad about how disappointed they must be feeling, especially Jeongin.

But the other 50% of the Criteria is on their hands, so they will be fine. STAY will show them lots of love

@keaji lol dearhyunjaes on twitter finally released a statement on mnet's editing, the thing we talked about earlier today..

"What makes me even madder about Mnet blocking us from releasing practice videos is that they’ve failed to post any proper practice/development process scenes for TBZ specifically during the show (while showing so many of those scenes for other groups).

Instead, they keep pushing this negative RTK narrative onto us and emphasize only our struggles (while giving so many positive & fun scenes to other artists). It’s just putting even more of a burden on our boys than there needs to be.

During RTK, the members being able to explain their development process played a huge part in people’s understanding of their stages, but Mnet doesn’t even allow a single scene of that for us here?

The other artists get to properly explain their concepts and show off their work process, but what do we get in comparison? A completely unnecessary and negative narrative that’s just putting more pressure on the members.

If you’re going to do that, at least let Creker post their own behind the scenes videos..."

mnet is being real shady not letting creker and tbz share anything and not airing it during the episodes at all
