2014 4th General Elections RESULTS! + 29th single

Hey everyone!

So here are the results for the 4th General Election that happened on the first of November! I would just like to tell you guys about a couple new website updates first. All the SERA00 member information is updated, and I added some new information for you guys too. If you click on the "List of Members" page, instead of the long list, you will see three links. All of them lead to equally or even longer lists. :) You can now view all the members listed by rank, ranking, and also access new information listed on their profiles. There's a description for each list on the page. The members by team page still stands alone.

Okay! The ranking turnout for this year's election is already listed in one of the new lists I mentioned above, but I'll put it here anyways:

As you can see, Sassan has reclaimed her throne, reaffirming her position as Centre of SERA00! Unfortunately, Luna had to settle for second place. I mentioned before that this election went back to the "usual" A, B, and C rank ratio - 16 A ranks, 16 B ranks, and everyone else excluding 00 ranks are C ranks.

The media members are definitely experiencing a change! While last year's Fab 4 still retain the top 4 places, there are a couple of upsets in the latter half. Maya has inched up a couple of places, and Kotoka has risen enough to just edge herself into the media members!

Who are some members whose rank rose significantly? Yumichan rose 15 places, Rome, Echo, Raine, and Macey rose 17 places, Mikayla rose 21 places, Tomiko rose 22 places, and Sammi rose 24 places, but I cinch the trophy - rising 25 places!

I honestly don't even know what to say. Anyone who attended the elections or watched the live broadcast (or read the news) will know that I cried my heart out when I placed 9th. I really think it's because I received such a wonderful opportunity to update SERA00's blog. It's almost been two years now and I know my name became more known in SERA00 ever since I started blogging. I thank all the fans who voted for me and everyone. I literally could not have attained this success without you all. I love my fans so much <3 I could go on and on (did you see what I did there? :P) but this post is not reserved for my personal thanks. But thank you, seriously!!

Okay! Continuing, who is new to the A ranks (as in, they were not an A rank from last year's election)? The answer is...Kotoka, Evie, Yumichan, Wyoming, Brindle, and Alyss. 

Most of the 00 ranks placed at the bottom, but that's okay! They're still trainees and their popularity will increase as their skills, experience, and exposure increase. The top 5 highest ranking 00 ranks in order are Tang Tang, who is the ace of the seventh generation, Soracchi, Emma, Yura, and Kailee. Actually, the ace of the sixth generation, Sammi, has experienced a good level of success as well, propelling herself to the B rank. Despite being the ace, she has not yet managed to emulate the success of her fellow sixth gen, Yumichan.

Yumichan's success is amazing, and I respect her for it. This is only her second election, and she's already an A rank in 12th place! The only one who has risen faster than her is Harley, who was FIFTH in her second election. HOW? I've managed to attain 9th place and A rank status this year, but it's my fourth election. (nevertheless, I am extremely grateful)

Are you still with me? (*applause*) The 29th single! Featuring a main cast of the newly elected A ranks, the SERA00's 29th single, titled "Land of Dreams", will be released on December 1st! Please wait for it!

Regardless of our ranking, we will all continue to work extremely hard for our fans! For a lot of us, just being in SERA00 and knowing that we have the power to brighten someone's day is enough. Please continue to support SERA00 and we will always strive to do better and better!
